Just use startActivity(), possibly with the NEW_TASK flag.  You can look at
the home screen sample code in the SDK for an example.

Seems RIL can only support one client that is telephony manager. You

a native proxy going directly under RIL.

[Pratap]

Hi

I want to implement multi-touch gesture detection in my application.
Does android provides support multi-touch?

If no, then is there any hack, which we can use to get multi finger
touch
in our application.

Kindly provide suggestions

Thanks

[android-developers] Re: Singleton in different service which share same process

[Jove]

 I create my JAR myself same with "android.test.runner" or
 "com.android.im.plugin"
 Briefly speaking, I add line "include $(BUILD_JAVA_LIBRARY" in
Android.mk under directory
 "com.example.base" to create  com.example.base.jar, Then I modify
 framework/base/data/etc/platform.xml to include my jar in system.img.
 My example application can use the  method to call the
 method in "com.example.base".

 Any clues?

Did you get your own Maps API key, as outlined in step #4?

I also have this question.
Every time I run HelloMapView (the example code in dev.android), I
only can see the title of the app, and the content is just black.
After I close the emulator, I can see these words:
DeviceMonitor]Error reading jdwp list: EOF

This is a "super super serious must be fixed asfp" bug because perhaps
tomorrow a CR/LF won't help!
Of course it makes sense that a sample input to the parser would help,
and I did provided one.

I still insist that a crash address is extremely helpful and in many
cases all you need to know to find a bug, but now that you said you
primarily develop on mac, I'm not sure whether gcc's map files are as
useful as VC's ones (although I suspect they are).

you may try:

1. adb shell
2. mount -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0 /sdcard
but Gallery and Camera do not recognize the SD card even it's mounted,
but you may brows sd card by adb shell and Eclipse

OK, I understand. Who builds the tool for the Windows SDK then? What
tools are used to build it?
So, is the tool open source, where's the source, and if you could ask
who builds the tool for Windows, what tools are used to build it and
how is it built?

A single empty line between 2 activities in the AndroidManifest.xml
make the difference.

Whoa, so if I couldn't workaround the problem I should seize
development? Now that's great!

And here we go again with the cupcake thing (a bit off-topic).
Schedules were non-existent yesterday, today you're chasing deadlines?
Other than that I understand fixing tools is with lesser priority, but
at least we need the source code and build instructions so we can fix
them and continue our work!

OK, this answers my previous questions. aapt is open source, and it's
somewhere. Now I only need to figure out how to build it.

Unfortunately, this is probably not enough to understand the problem.
It would really be better if you could attach your manifests files to the
bug.

Can you please just provide a complete example that doesn't work?  We have
lots of manifest files with spaces in them.  This isn't enough to help
reproduce the problem.

It really doesn't make sense to be treating this as a SUPER SERIOUS MUST BE
FIXED bug, and push off requests for help.  Doesn't it make sense that it
would be easier to debug if someone can look at the input files aapt is
getting to know what it is trying to do?  If it isn't important enough for
you to spend some of your time helping diagnose the problem, why should
anyone else believe that it is actually that important?

Anyway, I have other work I need to do today, so I'll be looking forward to
the bug being updated with a repro case.  (Or would love to have a patch for
aapt submitted that fixes it!)

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake coming in April? Where is the SDK?

[David Turner]

the vold.conf thing is a new feature of Cupcake so it's normal that this is
not available in previous builds.
"vold" is the name of the new mount daemon (the old one was named "mountd" I
believe) that adds support for encrypted partition and other stuff, though
most of this is currently disabled.

The file not being there means there is a bug in the build, and vold will
not mount the SDCard without it. I'll see what we can do about it.

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake coming in April? Where is the SDK?

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

Code drops before the one that was done about 2 weeks ago had another
mechanism for the management of the SD card (mountd vs vold), so that
vold.conf wouldn't be necessary there.

I don't have a problem sharing my manifest file, but here's the
current difference between a manifests with which the app builds, and
one it doesn't - a SINGLE empty line.
For example, if my manifest contains these lines:





it will build.

I'm not sure. A crash address, contrary to your opinion about it is
quite a bit of information. It is almost a direct pointer to the
crashing function.

In some cases perhaps, in many cases, especially if the code is
written with many small functions, as opposed to a few big ones, it's
quite enough.

I am the primary developer of the tool, and the computer I do my development
on is a Mac.  I don't have a Windows machine, and have no idea how to build
that tool for windows.

If you give me a test case then I can run it on my machine and debug it.
Very likely the place it crashes is not going to tell a whole lot about the
problem (I have enough experience debugging aapt to have been through this),
so being able to reproduce the problem will help me spend a lot less time on
fixing it -- I can turn on debugging logs to identify what is going on, etc.

That said, you are acting like you expect someone to drop what they are
doing today to spend all of their time on this bug.  I'm sorry, but it isn't
going to happen -- a bug fix for this would be in the next SDK, which means
probably cupcake, so you won't have an SDK with a fix for it until then.
Also we are still focused on development on the device-side parts of Cupcake
(since those need to be ready first for schedules, to be burned on devices
as they are manufactured), so fixes on tools in general will be held up
until we are ready to work on that part.

Finally, if this is really such a critical issue that you can't do anything
else until it is addressed, you -do- have the power to build aapt yourself
and debug it.  You aren't reliant on Google to do things for you.  That's
the give and take we have here: Google is giving away a bunch of stuff to
the OHA for Android so lots of people can use it for free, but because we
are not being paid for any of this work it is hard to have people who can
drop everything for a problem that a particular developer is having.

I -do- want to have this fixed.  I won't be able to do it today or probably
even tomorrow.  It is also much easier to fix with a test case; without a
test case, I can anticipate spending a lot more time on it (just figuring
out how to get a windows build) so it will naturally be lower on my list of
priorties than other things that I can spend less time on for a bigger
benefit.

I know what these are and they wouldn't help in any way in this specific
case.

As I said previously, we need the input passed to aapt, or at a minimum some
information about the things that contributed to the crash (e.g. your
manifest file,
for example).

there is not enough detail in your work-around post to infer *anything*
about the origin of the crash. For example, can you share two versions of
your manifest files (one that doesn't crash, and the other that does,
preferrably with as few changes as possible between them)?

Do you understand that I'm trying to help fix the problem for you and other
people that might encounter it in the future?

Ranting with CAPITAL LETTERS without trying to provide a minimum amount of
information is   a disservice to other developers and the people trying to
help you.

[Stoyan Damov]

Now that I can continue working, and being the single developer
experienced this particular crash, and realizing I was being very
harsh to Android engineers tonight, I *want* to help others.

I can reproduce the crash ALL I want. I just remove a single empty
line in AndroidManifest.xml and the crash occurs. Add the line and the
crash is gone.

Is appt open source, where can I get the source code, and how do I
build it on Windows, so I can debug and fix the bug?

[android-developers] Re: TERRIBLE BUG: aapt crashes on Windows

[Stoyan Damov]

Mark,

It would be nice, if you stopped playing Google's advocate for one day :)

If my game crashes, I'm the ONLY one to suffer the consequences.
If a tool, such as appt crashes, it could seize the development of
unlimited number of development companies (and affect even more
users).

Plus, I do handle all kinds of errors (both checked and unchecked
exceptins), if these are expected to happen. I don't handle
exceptions, such as OutOfMemoryException, or one denying me read
permissions to files my app has previously created.

Cheers

David, give me a break. The tool should have been instrumented in the
1st place to catch these crashes (SetUnhandledExceptionFilter and
MiniDumpWriteDump ring a bell?).

If you've seen the workaround post you've noticed that I did try to
change something.
Actually first I rolled back to what I had in SVN. It worked. I then
tried to figure out how to start adding the new stuff (I've written
more than those lines today, and haven't committed) incrementally. And
then I decided to first check what would happen if I simply remove the
new activity I've added today from the manifest file, -- the rest you
can see in the post.

However, make the difference -- this is not a bug report in the lines
of "aapt.exe crashed". I gave enough (for me at least) information how
to get from the crash address to the actual culprit code in aapt.

WORKED AROUND (was Re: [android-developers] Re: TERRIBLE BUG: aapt crashes on Windows)

[Stoyan Damov]

HOW HORRIBLE bug is this?!?!?!

I started experimenting what would happen if I comment out an
activity, and so I did - I commented out a RANDOM activity in
AndroidManifest.xml and WHAT THE ..., the build SUCCEEDED.

And I just sensed that this bug is SO RIDICULOUS that I should
probably remove the comment, but simply add a few blank lines to the
manifest file. And VOILA - my build succeeds.

WHAT THE !...@#$!!!

A crash is a problem. We need the input that aapt receives to be able to
reproduce and analyze the crash, otherwise even having the symbols is not
going to help tremendously.

I understand that you can't send your whole project to the bug tracker, but
can you repeat the crash with a simpler program that you could share ?

If this is not possible, what kind of things did you add to reproduce the
crash. Can you remove half of what you added and still reproduce the crash ?
Can you find the exact culprit in your additions ? Does adding even more
code, or changing a few things in it gets rid of the crash ?

As said previously, if we can't reproduce this, chances of debugging it are
pretty dim.

I'm saying this for the last time tonight. I haven't added ANY
resources. I've created a class, and used it in another one. That's it
- wrote some code.

No, I haven't enabled anything and I stated that. Perhaps I should be
more clear - everything is vanilla installation - SDK 1.1 with Eclipse
3.4.1 with no tweaks whatsoever.
The last time I built the code successfully was an hour ago for crying
out loud. Then I wrote some code and aapt crashes. Is it clear now?

I very much doubt it WILL get fixed. I can see clearly that no one

The information I provided (consistent crash address and assembly
around it) should be sufficient to any skilled Windows C++ developer
to find the bug in 10 minutes, provided that the appt tool was built
with Microsoft Visual Studio, or another toolchain, which has the
equivalent of VS's .map files.

That is why, knowing that Android engineers are indeed skilled, I'm
left with the impression, that they do not want to fix the bug, most
probably because of the fact that I'm again the single guy reporting
the bug.

[android-developers] Re: TERRIBLE BUG: aapt crashes on Windows

[Stoyan Damov]

Actually it might be exactly deferencing a null pointer!

It's possible that I'm mistaken that if the debugger breaks on a line,
the error occurred on the line above.
In this case, the crash would be here:

004363AC  mov ecx,dword ptr [ebp-8Ch]
004363B2  cmp word ptr [ecx],7Ch < HERE, where it breaks

and word ptr [ecx] points exactly 0 (*012FA000 points 0)

So, now that the crash reason is clear, get the dev working on that!!! :)

Cheers

[android-developers] View caching?

[gsmd]

I'm developing an app that runs both on Android and JSE/Swing so
there's a platform-independent part (~90% of code) that operates in
terms of interfaces for UI (sqlite, xmlpullparser, etc.) with
implementations being provided by a homebrew 'DependencyContainer'. At
the very beginning of app startup implementations get "injected" and
later fetched at runtime. No probs on desktop, on Android everything
works until the first context change (e.g. press 'back' and then
launch the app againg so that onCreate() gets called).
So, what I do in onCreate() is null all the Context-dependent items
and recreate them providing the new context. Unfortunately, this
doesn't work.
Say, I simplify it down to having a single ListView with some items
and OnClickListener that i store into DependencyContainer first, then
fetch it and set it in setContentView().
Here's how it works:
1. Launch app - got ListView with items, OnClickListener works as
expected
2. Hit back.
3. Launch again, the ListView is empty, clicking on it will crash the
app which is caused by a nullpointer in onClick()
4. After the crash, launch again - works as expected
The odd thing is that in debug mode a breakpoint set on onClick()
somehow isn't even reached!

Is there some sort of View caching or smth? Any suggestions?

TIA.

Yes, my bad, I thought the code was dereferencing *ecx, which it isn't :(
Anyway, the crash is consistently happening in the same place.
Also, my comment on finding the function where the crash occurred by
opening the release build's .map file still holds.

Nothing like that. I've just added a very simple class, and used it in another.

012FA000 is not null :)

Are you using any ninepatches with a large number of stretch regions,
by any chance? If so, that bug has already been reported and is fixed

[android-developers] Re: TERRIBLE BUG: aapt crashes on Windows

[Stoyan Damov]

David,

I can't provide a way to reproduce the problem. This is not a problem,
it is a crash. It's not like I'm tapping this menu here, and that
button there and something crashes.
I can't possibly know how and what the aapt tool does. Like I said, I
added probably 50 lines of code tops, tried to build and the tool
crashed.
I did try to rollback the code (as I think it was), but it didn't
help. I deleted the bin folder again to no avail.

David, I just saw your next post. What syntax are you interested in?
I'm just building from Eclipse with the default SDK 1.1 installation,
I'm not passing any extra parameters to aapt.

I don't understand what's the big deal for the tool's developer to
just open the .map file of the release build (provided that he created
such file), find the function near the crash address and see what's
the problem.
I understand that if the appt tool implements a parser or something
which has been partly code-gen'ed by another tool, which has generated
functions with thousands of lines of code it will be a lot more
difficult, but if that's not the case, finding the bug should be a
matter of minutes.

In the mean time I'll rollback my code from version control and will
try re-adding and rebuilding until I see what causes the tool to
crash.

[android-developers] Re: The specified child already has a parent. You must call removeView() on the child's parent first.

[gsmd]

Thanks for your replies & sorry for taking so long.
The reason for this issue was a bit weird app architecture on my side
which is a result of code reuse (80% of code is shared with a swing
app, got a sort of homegrown dependency injection). Namely, a widget
was created using the previous context, the context got changed and
the widget had to be recreated under the new context.

[android-developers] Current Preference Screen? (easyy)

[Noam]

Hello everyone,
I have two PreferenceScreens - A and B.
Let's say that the default for the variable i = 0;
PrefScreen B is a child screen of A.

When I first get to A, i = 0;
When I move to B, i = 1;
When I move BACK to A, i = 2;
when I move back to B, i = 1 again;

Whenever i = 2, I want to run a certain method.

Is there a way to get this to work?

Thanks,
Noam.

[android-developers] Providing text-to-speech (TTS) capability in my Android application?

[Mike Pastor]

Hello Fellow Developers,

I am looking for the best way to provide an audible speech component
for my Android application (Eliza Mobile Therapist game).

Is the Android TTS (text-to-speech) API viable at this time?  I want
to call a function from my Java code with the spoken text and hear it
(hopefully in different voices/dialects) on the phone.  Is this
technology currently possible?  Any experiences would be
appreciated...

Thanks and Cheers,
Mike Pastor

[android-developers] TERRIBLE BUG: aapt crashes on Windows

[Stoyan Damov]

This is a showstopper, and I'm experiencing for the 2nd time.

Shouldn't be hard to find, if the apt tool developers have created a
.map file for the release build.
It seems like the dev has dereferenced a null pointer (see below).

I didn't do anything fancy. Just added a dozen lines of code and tried
to build. I don't remember the URL for bug reports, so here it is. If
Mark's not lazy, he could file the bug ;)

Environment: WinXP SP2, Eclipse 3.4.1, SDK 1.1

Stack trace -- useless to me, but that's what you get for not shipping
symbols (lack of Windows symbols is my bad but I reinstalled my
machine fairly recently and didn't need them).

Either that, or you can implement a custom Button subclass that implements
onTouchEvent() to ignore events that are not within some region you define.

The logic for dispatching events is in ViewGroup.  It is basically a tree
traversal, each ViewGroup deciding how to dispatch events to its immediate
children.

You can just make a Drawable that draws (and changes based on its state)

[android-developers] Large Scrollable Image Help

[G]

Hi all, I'm having trouble displaying an oversized scrolling image. I
accomplished this originally by creating the custom class below to
replace the standard ImageView. My original large image was a png that
was a little over 1000x1000 in resolution and about 722kb in size. For
that image, the class below worked flawlessley. But now I need to do
the same thing with a MUCH larger image and I'm wondering if this is
not the best way to go about it. My new image is about 5000x5000 and
I've produced varying versions from png's that were up to 6MB to jpg's
that were 1.5MB. All of these images cause my app to crash instantly
without any changes to the code (besides referencing the larger
image). The important thing I need to do is be able to scroll and
zoom, and I'm starting to think the only way I'm going to get this
working is to slice my image up and create some sort of scrolling
GridView inside an AbsoluteLayout, that only loads the slices that are
displayed on screen. This is a bit more work than I was hoping to put
into this app, but can anyone give me any advice on which direction I
should be heading?

Below is my ScrollingImageView class for reference. It works
flawlessly if the image is not too big, so feel free to use it however
you'd like.

Thanks in advance,
G

Probably, that is because they cannot browse /data due to security
restrictions.

They are in the same spot on the device as they are in the emulator. You
just cannot browse to them. However, you can use adb pull to download them.

You have all of same folders on the device; you just cannot browse them.

[android-developers] written file not found

[Mak]

Hi.
I've written an file with the following comands:

String ausgabe;

try{
   java.io.BufferedWriter fos = (new java.io.BufferedWriter(new
java.io.OutputStreamWriter(
openFileOutput("testfile.txt", MODE_APPEND ;

if (ausgabe.length() != 0){
 fos.write(ausgabe);
}

catch (FileNotFoundException f){
   System.out.println("Not found");
}

Everything works and on the emulator i've got no problem.
The written file "testfile.txt" can be found in /data/data/mypackage/
files.
But on my G1 the folder "/data" is empty, no folder /data/packages can
be found with
"Astro File Manager" or LindaFileManager.

Anyone any idea where to find the files of my applications?
Why do i have only the folders /data, /sdcard and /system on the
emulator but
on the device there are much more?

Thanks for an answer.

Mak

[android-developers] Overlapping non-rectangular buttons

[Ward Willats]

I have a custom view group control with children views that act as 
buttons. What should be their "active" area is non-rectangular. Also, 
their bounding rectangles overlap a little.

Is there a framework way to "clip to region" touch events in a view? 
Or do I have to get in and muck with the dispatchTouchEvent()? (It 
gets tricky because of the overlap, the system might have given the 
event to the wrong child.)

Also, an aside, do touch events just get shot directly by the system 
into dispatchTouchEvent()?  I don't see much of the sort of logic to 
pass events and focus changes down the view tree that you sometimes 
find in other systems.

Thanks

[android-developers] Anything on Android that can do smooth scrolling?

[admin.androidsl...@googlemail.com]

Getting a bit disillusioned after spending most of the day trying to
make a smooth scrolling app. I've tried everything, views, surface
views, delaying threads, just scrolling tiny pictures, etc., but
whatever I try, there is always an unsightly flicker even though I can
easily achieve 20 - 30 fps.

So I thought I'd check out whats out there in the market to see if
anyone else can crack this. And I couldn't find anything at all! Most
games don't handle scrolling at all, just moving whats on the screen.
Even commercial games like deBlob don't seem to scroll smoothly.

And yet I did find one single app which does handle smooth scrolling.
The native picture viewer does very smooth scrolling on the thumbnail
view. Does anyone know how the picture viewer does smooth thumbnail
scrolling? Going through the source code, I think it uses an extended
View - GridViewSpecial.

Could anyone offer any other examples of smooth scrolling?

Surely smooth scrolling is going to be vital if apps want to out-
perform iPhone apps!!

What is the exact UI you are seeing and error message?  What is in the log?

Generally if the system can't install an .apk because that package already

That means you are using some CLEAR_TOP or finish flag in an intent or in

[android-developers] Re: Switch to SurfaceView

[ellipsoidmob...@googlemail.com]

I had the exact same problem. I never found a way to replace the
content without getting the black screen, so in the end I moved the
SurfaceView to a separate activity which I launch when start button is
pressed - so now I have a menu activity (based on linearlayout) and a
game activity (surfaceview). I think in hindsight two activities is
the better structure anyway.

You would have to ask the author of that comparison what s/he meant.

I know nothing about S60, but I imagine that keeping your UI code
separate from the rest of the code would be a good first step towards
portability to other platforms.

[android-developers] handle Camera preview data without a SurfaceView

[denzel]

Hello,

I want to receive the data from the preview of the Camera, but without
having to set a SurfaceView with a SurfaceHolder in the view of my
application.

I want to do something like this:

Camera cam = Camera.open();
cam.setPreviewCallback(new MyPreviewCallback());
cam.startPreview();

This will not work because I need to call setPreviewDisplay
(SurfaceHoler) before I start the preview. I can get a SurfaceHolder
from a SurfaceView, but I don't want a SurfaceView, because I don't
need one. I just want to handle the preview data by myself. Any idees
on how to deal with this?

Thanks in advance!

Denzel

I gave a look to the SimpleCursorAdapter source code and I think my
problem is in the bindView method.
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob_plain;f=core/java/android/widget/SimpleCursorAdapter.java;hb=HEAD
maybe the getString() call should be done only if there is no
ViewBinder. no?

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake coming in April? Where is the SDK?

[David Turner]

I fear it's a packaging problem. Is there a file named vold.conf in
/system/etc ?I.e. what is the output of "adb shell /system/etc/vold.conf"

If the file is missing, the SDCard cannot be mounted even if it is
recognized by the kernel.
