[android-developers] Re: How can I import any widgets under com.android.internal.widget into my app?

[shaddu]

Hi Dianne,

As we are copying the code and resources from platform into our
application, those will get compiled into our application apk. When we
install this apk, will it not create any problems related to duplicate
definition of packages/classes?

For exaple : If I copy apache http stack into my app and build apk out
of it. Then when I try to install it on emulator or phone will it
succeed as there are duplicate occurences of http stack in my apk and
on platform.

BR,
Shaddu

[android-developers] Re: Windows Cupcake SDKs compilation

[Al Sutton]

Dave,
 
Thanks for the tips, the only thing I can't do is uninstall everything else
that relies on cygwin (I need some apps for the projects which pay my
mortgage, etc..), and it would appear from searching the web that's
something that cygwin doesn't handle well :(.

I tried the instructions from the git repo for building windows and they

To start  with cygwin bases everything off /cygwin rather than / so even

Normally, cygwin also mounts / as a short-cut to your cygwin installation so
you
should be able to run /bin/sh directly. Note that I said "normally", because
there are
unfortunately quite a few ways to get a Cygwin install on a Windows PC, each
one
of them which its own can of worms.

I suggest starting from scratch with the "usual" way, i.e.:

- uninstall *anything* vaguely related to Cygwin on your machine
- go to http://www.cygwin.com and download the "setup.exe" program
- run setup.exe and ensure that:

   = You install on a NTFS partition
   = All directories in the installation path fit the 8.3 DOS convention
(right)
   = Choose "Unix line ending" when asked by the installation dialog
   = Don't try to much with the default mount paths (i.e. it's possible to
get rid of the /cygdrive/ stuff with some tweaking, but this makes
some tools miserable).

In addition, I really recommend the following:

install python and wget by default, then later install "cyg-apt" from
http://www.lilypond.org/~janneke/software/cyg-apt
this tool will allow you to download and install additionnal packages from
the command-line without using the brain-dead setup.exe GUI
(NOTE: you may need to update the script to use a better mirror than the
default. Look at the lines that read "mirror = ")

use puttycyg as the terminal (http://code.google.com/p/puttycyg/), or even
Terminator (http://software.jessies.org/terminator/) as they are far better
than the default Windows console or rxvt.

If you need MSys, do not install it in the same location that Cygwin if
possible, this really messes things sometimes.

Hope this helps




And if you hack around that by altering repo to point to /cygwin/bin/sh you
get;

Getting repo ...

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake SDKs available for download

[Al Sutton]

Thanks for the clarification JBQ. The worry part for me was;

".. it's possible for someone to legally download source code from the
Android Open-Source Project, compile it, redistribute the compiled result,
and even support it with their own resources. As long as there's enough
separation between those projects and the official SDK that is used to
develop applications for devices that bear the Android logo..." 

Which I read as builds from the Android Open-Source project being divergent
from what's used to develop the Google originated SDK.

I've no intention of creating a fork, and if a Google originated SDK came
out I would happily update the page to point people to it, but at the moment
the best us non-Googlers have for testing cupcake is a build from the open
repository.

Al.

Subject: [android-developers] Re: Cupcake SDKs available for download


That's not what I wrote (or at least not what I meant to write). The fact
that the open-source side of Android (which is fundamentally "the" true
Android platform as it's the central one) is called "Android Open-Source
Project" with the official Android logo should be a good hint that it's not
an offshoot.

What I meant is that it's beneficial for the Android community as a whole if
the Android name and logos are only used in a set of situations that are
consistent with one another, especially when it comes to compatibility.
Fragmentation won't help, neither would additional user confusion beyond
what we already have.

So, for the sake of clarity, let's try to keep some separation between the
official SDKs that Google releases and supports on this discussion group,
and other development tools that anyone can create and distribute out of the
Android Open Source Project source code as long as they stay within the
allowed limits for IP licensing.

BTW, I'm very much looking forward to the start of the next Android
development cycle, since for the first time in the history of Android such a
cycle will start with the source code being openly available.
Things won't quite be perfect the first time around, we'll learn from the
issues that we are going to face, and we'll all work better together for
subsequent development cycles.

[android-developers] Custom View Subclass - How do I properly specify xmlns in my layout.xml file?

[Mark Rosenberg]

I am following the LabelView.java and associated custom_view_1.xml
layout files to guide me, but I am perplexed by the xmlns:app
specification. My custom view is in the com.foo.bar package. What do I
specify as the xmlns:app value to properly bind my XML layout
declarations to the attribute set my custom view constructor
processes?

I've tried xmlns:app="com.foo.bar", xmlns:app="http://

schemas.android.com/com.foo.bar" to no avail.

Its not clear to me why the api example uses an http: scheme in the

[android-developers] Re: How the use same instances when launching application twice ?

[Dianne Hackborn]

Ah!  Yes I think the IDE uses a different Intent than home does to launch
your activity, so you will see this behavior there.  (Basically when you
launch again from home, this is a different intent than the intent for the
first A, so you are displaying something different than that one, and thus a
new instance for the new intent is launched.

[android-developers] Re: How the use same instances when launching application twice ?

[Sarnoth]

I posted with this same problem before and then it just seemed to
"disappear" so I replied to my own post with a "never mind, it works
now" and no real resolution. Well, as I've continued to develop I've
run in to it again and figured out what is going on. There is a
problem with the development environment that causes this. When an app
is run through the IDE either on a real device hooked up to the USB
port or on the emulator it will exhibit this behavior as follows:
1. Hit run in IDE
2. App launches with activity A
3. Navigate to activity B
4. Press the home button
5. Click the app icon to return to the app
6. App appears with activity A on top
7. Press back and activity B is revealed, back again returns to
activity A, and a third back returns to the home screen

This problem is present for every combination manifest and activity
launch options that I have tried.
The problem is avoided by exiting the app after hitting run in the
IDE:
1. Hit run in the IDE to load the new version of the app but DO NOT
use it when it runs
2. Hit back to exit the app and return to the home screen
3. Launch the app from the icon, activities will work properly now
4. Navigate from A to B
5. Hit home
6. Click the app icon, you are turned to B as expected

[android-developers] Re: JUnit on the emulator without instrumentation

[Andrew Stadler]

It's actually quite useful and doable to write "pure" unit tests
within the InstrumentationTestRunner framework.

For a working example, please take a look at ApiDemos, in the tests/
directory, and look for classes that extend the "TestCase" class.

Benefits of doing it this way:

1.  Although you can restrict yourself to pure JUnit style tests if
you want, you can also write a mix of tests, ranging from purely unit
(extending TestCase and AndroidTestCase) to almost totally functional
(e.g. extending ActivityInstrumentationTestCase) and group them
together as a test suite.

2.  Although it doesn't work in the published SDK, quite soon you will
in fact be able to run these tests directly from Eclipse.  In other
words, because this is the supported mechanism, you'll benefit from
upcoming improvements & tools.

Hope this helps.

--Andy

[android-developers] Taking a picture Intent?

[Ivan Soto]

Hi, I have an Activity for my application to take pictures and store them
with a content provider.

The problem is that obviously I would like the picture to auto rotate
depending if I have my phone in landscape or not and I would like to use the
autofocus feature. So I'm wondering if I could just call a Camera app intent
and get the URI of the picture taken.

is that possible? I remind reading that it will only give me a small size
picture.

Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake SDKs available for download

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

This is definitely new in cupcake - it's part of the work that has
been done by the tools team to allow a single SDK to work with
multiple target configurations, and the visible effect is that
launching the emulator outside of either the source tree or a
fully-configured SDK distribution might actually be tricky.

(sadly, I don't know what exact parameters need to be passed to make it work).

[android-developers] Why adb push to sdcard report "Read-only file system" for the emulator of the latest android source code

[max]

Hi Guys,

This is a question that raised before, but I can't find answer for my
case.

I get the latest android source code, compile, and then set $PATH
including the "android_src/out/host/linux-x86/bin/"

mksdcard 100M card.img
emulator -sdcard card.img

Then in another xterm window, I use

adb push song.mp3 /sdcard

but it reports "failed to copy 'song.mp3' to '/sdcard/song.mp3': Read-
only file system"

I do the same operations many times before, always successfully, but
why it fails for the latest source code,

I do some debugging into the source code, but no answer for this
moment yet.

Can anyone give me some light on this?

Max

[android-developers] Re: Detecting Noise!

You should be able to fork the audio in Linux and write a c program to
do the analysis, then write your results to android...  The challenge
you will have is getting your c program installed on the locked down
phones...  Since you are only doing analysis you should be able to
fork the audio path and pipe it to your application.  I'm also
interested in this area...

[android-developers] Re: javax.xml.transform

[xspotlivin]

I'm using xml, and after creating a document out of it, I'd like to
create a new document out of some particular node (with all its
children). Below "XML" is the larger document, and I want to make a
new document from the node "intervals". This is how I did it with the
transform package:

Node intervals = XML.getFirstChild().getFirstChild();
TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer xf = tf.newTransformer();
DOMResult dr = new DOMResult();
xf.transform(new DOMSource(adherenceIntervals), dr);
Document adherenceIntervalsDoc = (Document) dr.getNode();

Any suggestions?

[android-developers] Button in Custom View

[xspotlivin]

I'm trying to create a button in a custom view that I've created. I'm
looping through an XML document and drawing certain things. I want to
be able to also create buttons to go in certain locations depending on
the xml data. I'd like to do it in the view because I want to be able
to call invalidate() on my view to redraw things and replace the
buttons when new xml data is available.

The problem is that I put my code in the view class, the activity
crashes because the button is "null". Here is a subset of my code:

Java:
 @Override
 protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {

  // Clock-size rectangle to draw compliance windows
  RectF clockRect = new RectF(86, 6, 394, 314);

  // Create a node list containing each reminder
  NodeList reminderNodes = this.clockXML.getElementsByTagName
("AdherenceInterval");
  int reminderLength = reminderNodes.getLength();

  Button checkbox = (Button) findViewById(R.id.checkbox);
checkbox.setLayoutParams(new AbsoluteLayout.LayoutParams
(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 0, 0));
checkbox.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
  public void onClick(View v) {
   Context context = v.getContext();
   Intent i = new Intent(context,
ReportMedications.class);
   context.startActivity(i);
  }
});



I know this code works for creating buttons because I can put it in my
activity class and it works just fine. Any suggestions? I thought
about relocating the button in the activity, but I can't figure out
how to do this when new data is available.

This is somewhat reminiscent of what Mr. Damov referred to colorfully as
a "TERRIBLE BUG" a few weeks ago. In his case, it would not compile
(aapt crashed), but it too was due to a subtle difference in his
resources (in his case, whitespace in a layout, IIRC).

If there is any way you can post an issue to http://b.android.com with a
ZIPped-up project that can reproduce this problem, it would really help
in terms of getting it fixed. If you can't (e.g., the project you are
working on isn't intended to be open source), c'est la vie...

You haven't stated a problem we can really help you solve.

You asked:

"Are you not allowed to use this package on Android?"

As Mr. Guy indicated, you are correct. The package is not shipped with
Android, and adding platform classes like this is not recommended.
Hence, you cannot use this package on Android at this time.

If you can tell us what you are trying to do -- at more of a design
level than "trying to use this javax.xml.transform" -- we might be able
to give you some suggestions for how to achieve your goals without the
use of the missing package.

[android-developers] Re: Installation error: INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES

[geoff.stromberg]

Well, this APK installation error
(INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES) is caused by a change to my
source (I didn't verify well enough that I had restored to a known
good working source tree).

The error is apparently triggered by changing the name of one of my
layout XML files. With one name it works fine, with another everything
compiles and builds an APK fine, but that APK fails to install (with
an error message indicating a color resource that has nothing to do
with the layout file whose name changed).

[android-developers] UberColorPicker Demo

[Keith Wiley]

I have created what I believe is a relatively useful color picker,
derived and massively extended from the ColorPickDialog example in the
API Demos.  If anyone would like to try it out, it is available on the
Market at Applications/Tools/UberColorPicker Demo".  It didn't put it
in the Demo section because it isn't a demo in the sense of being a
free teaser of a nonfree product, if you see my meaning.

If you like it, you can download the source from
http://keithwiley.com/Downloads/AndroidUberColorPickerDemo.zip.  Feel
free to drop it -- ready-to-go and unmodified -- into your own apps (I
use it for setting text color preferences in Shead Spreet)...or to
hack, extend, and change it however you see fit.

Enjoy!

Cheers!

[android-developers] opening a file within a service

[Richard Schilling]

I'm getting some weird behavior when I try to open a file within a
service:



public class MyService extends Service{

public void onCreate(){
super.onCreate();

File myFile = getFileStreamPath("myfile.dat");

if (myFile.exists()){
Log.i("MyService", "myfile.dat exists");
}

}



Whenever getFileStreamPath is called, the service just freezes and
does nothing.  It's like the call to getFileStremPath is being blocked
by something.

Can someone give an example of how to properly obtain a File object
reference in a service using getFileStreamPath()?

Thanks.

[android-developers] Re: send a image file on sdcard with email not messaging or other options

[Andrew Stadler]

We can work out ways to deal with this question, but I would ask
first:  How restrictive are you trying to be?

For example the user might have a Gmail account set up, and both
platform Email and K9 installed & configured.

Are you sure you want to restrict them to Email only?

The user experience design for the intent resolver is to allow the
user to control behaviors like this, so it's worth thinking through
the desired use cases before adding restrictions.

Node adherenceIntervals = reportXML.getFirstChild().getFirstChild();

Marco Schmitz wrote:

That will not reliably work AFAIK. See below.

>> //android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>> ???

All of the layout_ attributes are messages to the widget's *container*,
not to the widget itself.

To adjust those layout_ attributes at runtime, you need to:

1. Instantiate an appropriate ViewGroup.LayoutParams subclass (e.g.,
LinearLayout.LayoutParams).

2. Configure the LayoutParams from step #1.

3. Call setLayoutParams() on the widget.

Colors in Android in Java are in AARRGGBB format, where the AA refers to
the alpha channel. So 0x is solid red, and 0x80FF is a 50-50
mix of red and whatever the background color is.

[android-developers] Re: Detecting Noise!

[MrSnowflake]

The only way I see this possible is by having the MediaRecorder record
some sound for a very short time, have it stop and save the file, and
immediately start recording again. Then analyse the previous shot
sample. You have to do it this way, because you don't have direct
access to the sound stream from the mic.

I am assuming you are referring to AlertDialog.

One approach is to use setView() and supply your own custom-configured
contents.

[android-developers] OpenGL: Difference on Emulator versus actual G1 phone for method glDrawTexiOES

[Streets Of Boston]

Hi,

I have a problem drawing a background for my OpenGL app on the
emulator. It all works well on an actual G1, but i'm worried that if
the emulator has a problem, other android phones may have the same
problem.

On an actual G1 the background is drawn on the background. All other
drawing is drawn in front of it.
On the emulator, the background is always drawn on the foreground,
obsuring any other drawing.

Here are two screenshots, where i have my background only occupying
half of the screen:
>From emulator
http://www.streetsofboston.com/photos/505952628_oatDP-O.png

>From phone
http://www.streetsofboston.com/photos/505952626_Cb9Mc-O.png

Here are some code snippets:
Clearing screen before drawing anything else:
  gl.glClear(GL10.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL10.GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);

Drawing the actual background:
  gl.glBindTexture(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, mBackgroundTextureID);
  ((GL11) gl).glTexParameteriv(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D,
  GL11Ext.GL_TEXTURE_CROP_RECT_OES, smBackgroundCrop,0);
  ((GL11Ext)gl).glDrawTexiOES(0, 0, 1, (int)mViewWidth, (int)
mViewHeight);
(the background is drawn where Z=1, the far-plane).

Enable depth-test and setting the func to equal or less than equal:
  gl.glEnable(GL10.GL_DEPTH_TEST);
  gl.glDepthFunc(GL10.GL_LEQUAL);
(using the default depth-func will not draw the background on the
phone)

Surface type:
  mHolder.setType(SurfaceHolder.SURFACE_TYPE_GPU);
(changing the surface type won't fix it for the emulator)


My question is:
Is there a bug in the emulator or may there be a real problem with my
code?

Thanks!

Normally, cygwin also mounts / as a short-cut to your cygwin installation so
you
should be able to run /bin/sh directly. Note that I said "normally", because
there are
unfortunately quite a few ways to get a Cygwin install on a Windows PC, each
one
of them which its own can of worms.

I suggest starting from scratch with the "usual" way, i.e.:

- uninstall *anything* vaguely related to Cygwin on your machine
- go to http://www.cygwin.com and download the "setup.exe" program
- run setup.exe and ensure that:

   = You install on a NTFS partition
   = All directories in the installation path fit the 8.3 DOS convention
(right)
   = Choose "Unix line ending" when asked by the installation dialog
   = Don't try to much with the default mount paths (i.e. it's possible to
get rid of the /cygdrive/ stuff with some tweaking, but this makes
some tools miserable).

In addition, I really recommend the following:

install python and wget by default, then later install "cyg-apt" from
http://www.lilypond.org/~janneke/software/cyg-apt
this tool will allow you to download and install additionnal packages from
the command-line without using the brain-dead setup.exe GUI
(NOTE: you may need to update the script to use a better mirror than the
default. Look at the lines that read "mirror = ")

use puttycyg as the terminal (http://code.google.com/p/puttycyg/), or even
Terminator (http://software.jessies.org/terminator/) as they are far better
than the default Windows console or rxvt.

If you need MSys, do not install it in the same location that Cygwin if
possible, this really messes things sometimes.

Hope this helps

[android-developers] send a image file on sdcard with email not messaging or other options

[Gaurav]

I need to send an image file on my sdcard using email in my
application. Note that I don't want user to get option to use
messaging or other ways to send the file. My current code, as shown
below, gives option of both email and messaging whereas I want the
user to get only emailing option. How do I do this?

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_DEFAULT);
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:/sdcard/mydir/
myimage.jpg"));
startActivity(intent);

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake SDKs available for download

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

That's not what I wrote (or at least not what I meant to write). The
fact that the open-source side of Android (which is fundamentally
"the" true Android platform as it's the central one) is called
"Android Open-Source Project" with the official Android logo should be
a good hint that it's not an offshoot.

What I meant is that it's beneficial for the Android community as a
whole if the Android name and logos are only used in a set of
situations that are consistent with one another, especially when it
comes to compatibility. Fragmentation won't help, neither would
additional user confusion beyond what we already have.

So, for the sake of clarity, let's try to keep some separation between
the official SDKs that Google releases and supports on this discussion
group, and other development tools that anyone can create and
distribute out of the Android Open Source Project source code as long
as they stay within the allowed limits for IP licensing.

BTW, I'm very much looking forward to the start of the next Android
development cycle, since for the first time in the history of Android
such a cycle will start with the source code being openly available.
Things won't quite be perfect the first time around, we'll learn from
the issues that we are going to face, and we'll all work better
together for subsequent development cycles.

It doesn't have to be an internal Google repository.

Let's suppose the source code in question was Mozilla Firefox. You
decide to grab HEAD off the Firefox repositories, build it, and declare
that you, Al Sutton, are distributing Firefox 4.0.

The Mozilla Foundation might be somewhat irked by such a declaration.

If you had a similar role in Mozilla-land as you do in Android-dom, the
lead developers on Firefox might be quick to point out that you are not
distributing Firefox 4.0, but rather your own build of your own snapshot
of in-progress code. While your browser may resemble what will
eventually be Firefox 4.0, Firefox 4.0 is not yet ready, and anyone
relying on your release may run into compatibility issues with the
official Firefox 4.0 release.

So long as you are within the bounds of the open source license and
relevant trademark uses, there is nothing to prevent you from trying to
convince people that yours is the One True Firefox 4.0. Or you can
position it as your own preview edition. And this is not to say that
your preview edition would be a bad thing (e.g., AJAX toolkit folk
wanting to get cracking on known Firefox 4.0 changes), just that it's
not official.

My interpretation of JBQ's comments [JBQ: please forgive me if I've
missed your intent] are that he wants to make sure people realize that
you are not distributing ,
but rather your own build of your own snapshot of in-progress code.
While your SDK may resemble ,  is not
yet ready, and anyone relying on your release may run into compatibility
issues with the official  release.

So long as you are within the bounds of the open source license and
relevant trademark uses, there is nothing to prevent you from trying to
convince people that yours is the One True Android  SDK. Or you can
position it as your own preview edition. And this is not to say that
your preview edition would be a bad thing (e.g., Android developers
wanting to test against soft keyboards), just that it's not official.

I tried the instructions from the git repo for building windows and they
don't work.

To start  with cygwin bases everything off /cygwin rather than / so even
trying to run repo gets;

/bin/sh: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake SDKs available for download

[Al Sutton]

JBQ,
I may be reading what you've written in a different way to you've intended,
but it reads very much like you guys see Google produced Android stuff from
the internal Google repository as "Android", and anything else (including
the public repository) is being an offshoot project.

Al.

The owners of the discussion group where "official" SDKs are supported :)

Within the limits of the various licenses (which are generally very
permissive), it's possible for someone to legally download source code from
the Android Open-Source Project, compile it, redistribute the compiled
result, and even support it with their own resources. As long as there's
enough separation between those projects and the official SDK that is used
to develop applications for devices that bear the Android logo, there
shouldn't be any major issue. That being said, it's probably not entirely
beneficial for the Android community as a whole if app developers are
presented with a multitude of slightly different and incompatible
development environment, but I do understand the motivation behind what
you're doing.

> - There is no guarantee of future compatibility on any SDK (see my 
> issue with buttons posted a couple of days ago).

Yeah, compatibility isn't always as good as we'd like it to be, especially
as it's not always clearly documented what behaviors can potentially vary
and therefore can't be strongly relied on by applications (especially when
there's currently no way to make those vary on the SDK), but with unofficial
development environments built from branches in intermediate states there's
a much more explicit risk of e.g. APIs that disappear entirely or behaviors
being suddenly protected by permissions, i.e. of applications that grossly
fail to compile or load.

There's definitely a relevant use case around being able to "preview"
existing apps on newer "in-development" versions of the platform, without
necessarily exposing any new platform APIs, so that compatibility issues can
be spotted earlier. Technical limitations have made this impractical with
the existing SDK infrastructure, but that issue has been on our minds for a
while.

Use CursorJoiner (if it fits your use case) or CursorWrapper (if
CursorJoiner is not quite flexible enough).

[android-developers] How to retrieve data from two tables via the ContentProvider way?

[Shawn_Chiu]

Hi, all
How to retrieve data from two tables via the ContentProvider way?
I.E. the database of Calendar application, include many tables
including Events and Deleted, and some others.
I want to retrive records in Events table, whose _sync_id field is
also in Deleted table.
Usually, we write a SQL sentence like:
select (all fields in Events)
from Events as e, Deleted as d
where e._sync_id = d._sync_id
or select *
from Events as e
where e._sync_id in select _sync_id from Deleted
etc.
But, how can I accomplish it in the ContentProvider way? I saw
ContentProvider.query take a Uri as the first parameter, but pity that
I don't know how to build one that could fulfil my purpose.
Hope you could help me a hand, thank you:-)

[Al Sutton]

Hi JBQ,

- Who decides what is an official SDK of an open project :)?

- There is no guarantee of future compatibility on any SDK (see my issue
with buttons posted a couple of days ago).

- Thanks for the window SDK pointer, I'm installing cygwin now.

- If someone wants to setup a bit torrent tracker then I'll like to the
torrent file, but I don't want to run a tracker and seeds on my servers.

-How about distributing it with BitTorrent? This seems like a perfect use case.

[android-developers] file uri doesn't work for Messaging

[Gaurav]

I have an image on my sdcard and I want to send this via email or
message. Here is my code:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_DEFAULT);
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:/sdcard/mydir/
myimage.jpg"));
startActivity(intent);

This works fine for email but gives an exception when I choose
Messaging. Can someone please suggest the problem and a workaround.

Here is the exception:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Query on file:/sdcard/
mydir/myimage.jpg returns null result.

[android-developers] Re: How to use TextAppearence in Code without styleable?

[Tseng]

1. Well you can simply copy & paste the styles you need from the
android SDK and insert it in your own XML files (they can be found in
the SDK1.0/tools/lib/res/default/values/styles.xml file). They way you
can still use the same styles as before, but you don't have to access
them from the Framework but have them stored in your apps APK which
makes you independed of the frameworks styles)

2. That being said, #2 should be quite solved too. However, to still
try to find an anwser (if you want to keep it this way): Did you tried
obtainTypedArray?

[public TypedArray obtainTypedArray (int id)]

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake SDKs available for download

[Pd]

You could always use bittorrent if bandwidth is an issue plus we all 
wouldn't need yet another username and password if you put the file(s) 
on a public tracker  ;-)

[android-developers] Cupcake SDKs available for download

[Al Sutton]

I've compiled up the Linux & Mac OS X Intel SDKs from the public git
repository and have put them up for download (If anyone can get instructions
on building a Windows SDK I will do what I can to create a Windows SDK as
well).

*PLEASE NOTE* In order to ensure that I don't end up with a massive
bandwidth bill you will need to log into AndAppStore to download the SDKs,
and, if things get silly, download limits may be introduced.

You are, of course, free to pass on the SDK to as many people as you want
after you've downloaded, but please do not pass around links to direct
downloads without logins at AndAppStore because I'd like to continue to
update them but if a bandwidth cost issue comes up then I won't.

Anyway, once you've logged into AndAppStore the link to the Cupcake SDKs is
in the Developers Area menu on the right of the page.


Al.
