2009-05-30 Thread fala70

I've an activity with a Runnable thread into. From a button command I
call the camera external application. Into my thread there is a check
for news picture file is created.

Now I need to resume my activity from my run func. I tried to recall
startActivity of my own but doesn't work. The other solution can be
kill the current process (camera app).

what i have understood from your query is that u have implemented the
Runnable interface.
if u have done so, u have to use an Handler object to get hold of the ui
elements...
if this does not help u, please explain your problem properly.

Wait for the user to press the back button.

Remember: while you were the one to launch the camera application, it's
not your phone, so the user is welcome to stay in the camera application
as long as she wants.

Only launch external applications when you are willing to give up control.

In the case of the camera, if you don't want to give up control, use the
Camera object and take the picture yourself.

Uh, I think option (2) was registering a receiver, then using
PackageManager to enable/disable it. If so, then I don't have any
example code -- I just found out about the technique myself a day or so
earlier at a Google I/O session.

However, PackageManager has a getPackageInfo() method, from which you
can get the receivers as, strangely, an array of ActivityInfo objects,
and you can set enabled/disabled properties on those objects.

2009-05-30 Thread Mike Hearn

 Are you trying to tell me that it's totally safe to throw stuff in
 static fields?

You have to be careful you don't accidentally pin things into memory,
eg, putting a View or a Drawable or anything that inherits from
Context into a static field would be a bad idea. Otherwise it's not a
problem.

I wish Android provided a nicer way to solve this problem though. The
AsyncTask stuff helps but it still breaks on orientation change.

[android-developers] virtual keyboard EditText

2009-05-30 Thread allian...@groupmedianet.com

Hi

I had an EditText that was working perfectly on the emulator.
Now that I am doing test with the htc magic (which has a virtual
keyboard) is giving me some problems:

this is the code that I use:

myEditText.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener()
{
  public boolean onKey(View arg0, int arg1, KeyEvent arg2)
  {
 Log.i(activity,hello!);
 /*
 do something...
 */
  }

}

The problem is that the inner function onKey() is only called() AFTER
the virtual keyboard is hidden, and for some reasons, I want to know
this as soon as possible...

does anybody knows how can I sort this out?

Thanks

[android-developers] Re: Resume my activity from thread

2009-05-30 Thread fala70

Hi Mark, when your new book on 1.5 sdk ? :-)

Mark the problem born around intent ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE. Mainly I
need to capture an image from camera.
I tried to use ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE with the follow code:

final Intent imageCaptureIntent = new Intent
(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
imageCaptureIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
Uri.fromFile(new 
File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory
(), test.jpg)));
startActivityForResult(imageCaptureIntent, RESULT_CAPTURE_IMAGE);

it work but the image resolution is too low and seem impossible get an
image with full resolution.
Then I found an other solution (the current). I created an activity
with implemented the
Runnable interface. Run func. check if new images are created from
camera app. I'd like kill the camera activty from my run func. when an
new image is found. Look below my code.

private void CaptureImage()
{
_bEndThread = false;
_thread = new Thread(this);
_thread.start();

ComponentName toLaunch;
toLaunch = new ComponentName
(com.android.camera,com.android.camera.Camera);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
intent.setComponent(toLaunch);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK|
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
startActivity(intent);
}

[android-developers] Call Activity from Widget, have only one instance. I am confused.

2009-05-30 Thread Michael Elsdörfer

I've read through the Application Fundamentals three times today (and
I had done so before), but I still can't quite wrap my ahead around
the task concept. Or I guess I thought I understood it, but usually,
the results I am seeing don't match up to what I would expect to
happen (maybe a tool to see the current tasks/activities etc. for
debugging purposes would be a nice addition).

I have multiple widgets from my provider in the Launcher desktop, and
each is using a PendingIntent with a different URI as data (so they
should be separate intents) to open an Activity.

I want there to be only once concurrent instance of this Activity that
the user can access. So clicking the widget (1) , pressing HOME (2),
clicking a different widget (3), pressing BACK (4) should bring the
user back to the Desktop.

Now I did manage to do this using launchMode=singleTask - the
existing instance is brought to the top, onNewIntent() is called and I
am pretty satisfied with it.

However, supposedly there are other ways to achieve an equivalent
effect (say with having the activity restarted), and I'd like to
understand why I don't seem to be able to get them to work: In every
case, instead of seeing the home screen after step (4) (after pressing
BACK), I see the *previous* instance of the Activity.

For example, if I read this correctly:

There's another way to force activities to be removed from the stack.
If an Intent object includes the FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP flag, and the
target task already has an instance of the type of activity that
should handle the intent in its stack, all activities above that
instance are cleared away so that it stands at the top of the stack
and can respond to the intent. If the launch mode of the designated
activity is standard, it too will be removed from the stack, and a
new instance will be launched to handle the incoming intent.
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html

Then simply using using the following code to start my Activity from
my widget should do what I want, no?

Intent detailIntent = new Intent(context, ViewImageActivity.class);
detailIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
PendingIntent pending = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0,
detailIntent, 0);

So in (3) My activity should be launched using FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
by the launcher, which due to process affinity would find the existing
task (which would consist of a single instance of my Activity), and
launch the new instance on top of it. This explains what I am seeing.
Why doesn't FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP cause the existing instance in the
task to be replaced?

Even setting android:launchMode explicitely to standard, as
mentioned in the doc quote above, this doesn't seem to change things.

I also tried android:finishOnTaskLaunch=true, but the behaviour is
the exact same was just described with FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP (which
seems to be the exact same as when doing neither and really starting
an activity without any special attributes).

I should mention that  If I click the same widget in (3) as I clicked
in (1), i.e. using the same PendingIntent twice, I do get the previous
instance brought to the front (not restarted), but again, regardless
of whether FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP or finishOnTaskLaunch are being
used.

I find this especially strange since the docs about tasks don't seem
to mention the intent itself being relevant at all. Application
Fundamentals does at one point say For the default standard mode, a
new instance is created to respond to every new intent, but it's not
clear what new intent means then. Is triggering a PendingIntent
multiple times through a widget not multiple new intents then?

I also tried various combinations of the other related options, but
pretty much got nowhere.

Can anybody make sense of this?

 Hi Mark, when your new book on 1.5 sdk ? :-)

All three books will be updated over the next several weeks, with two
being updated within about 10 days. The original Android book will take
longest, mostly because I want to get the other two in print.

 Mainly I need to capture an image from camera.

You can do that yourself, with full control, without having to launch an
external activity, via the Camera object. _The Busy Coder's Guide to
*Advanced* Android Development_ has a chapter on this, and that should
be brought up to Android 1.5 in ~10 days.

It's not that hard, once you have the recipe, and then you have full
control over the user experience.

 Then I found an other solution (the current). I created an activity
 with implemented the

   Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
 intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
 intent.setComponent(toLaunch);
 intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK|
 Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
 startActivity(intent);
 }
 
 
 public void run() {
   Cursor c = managedQuery
 (android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,null,null,null,null);
   int iNPics = c.getCount();
   while(!_bEndThread){
   try{
   c = managedQuery
 (android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,null,null,null,Media.DATE_TAKEN

   if( c.getCount()iNPics ) {
   c.moveToLast();
   iNPics = c.getCount();
 
   Uri ur = Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
   _uri=Uri.withAppendedPath(ur, c.getString

 //

 //
 
   _bEndThread=true;
   }
   _thread.sleep(1000);
   }
   catch (Exception ex){
   }
   }
   }

I stand by my recommendation: use the Camera object and take the picture
yourself. If you need MediaStore to know about the picture, I'm sure
there is some way to do that (e.g., call insert()).

[android-developers] Testing among peers - A new group proposed

2009-05-30 Thread Ravi

Hi,

I would like to propose a test exchange where few can test  apps for
others and vice versa. We can go by credit system where when you test
an app you get credits and use when your app is being tested by
others.

Or may be even have developers purchase the credits. Revenue can be
shared among testers and site operator.

More over we will get a real world test and feedback. We can code the
apps to function only for 30 days or so for test trials.

Please advice.

Quick question...

Is there a way to define set values (i.e. 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) for
the seekbar widget that enables the slider to snap to the nearest
set value? For example instead of allowing the user to position the
slider at an percentage through 0-100, instead the slider can only
ever be positioned at one of the five set values?

Oh and while were on the subject is there an easy solution for
positioning the seekbar vertically, i'd rather not hack through the
seekbar source code - but I fear I may have to!

Does setting the range from 0-4 work? If not, you could add an

[android-developers] Re: video capture doesn't seem to work in 1.5

2009-05-30 Thread Derek

I'm having trouble too and it seems to revolve around the prepare()
when it is trying to load up the file location.  I get a
FileNotFoundException during prepare().  The exception says it can't
find /external/video/media/5 which is the URI path.  I'm guessing it
wants a more physical path but even hard coding a path and giving a
filename results in another FileNotFoundException for that path /
sdcard/video/file.3gp.

I'm guessing if you look through your log you will see a warning with
the same FileNotFoundException.

[android-developers] Conversion to Davik failed with error 1

2009-05-30 Thread Francois

Hello,

I have searched the forums, but none of the solutions proposed cured
my problem.

Since I have upgraded to version 1.5 of the dev kit (and updated my
Eclipse plugin), I cannot compile my project.
I get this error, followed by :

Project 'RuntimeAndroid' is missing required source folder 'gen'
The project cannot be built until build errors are resolved

This is very strange, as after the build (which had errors) I HAVE a
gen folder in my project! And the subdirectories of this gen folder
have been created (com\clickteam\runtime) and a R.java file is present
in the folder with a correct content!

Something is definitively going wrong here.

Can you help me? I am stuck...

[android-developers] Missing MapPoint in 1.5r2?

2009-05-30 Thread Mark Murphy

I am attempting to build an application that uses the Google Maps Add-On.

I get compile errors on this code:

GeoPoint status=new GeoPoint((int)(lat*100.0),
(int)(lon*100.0));

saying:

[javac] StatusMap.java:31: cannot access com.google.map.MapPoint
[javac] class file for com.google.map.MapPoint not found

My guess is that MapPoint is some superclass of GeoPoint -- I'm not
referring to MapPoint itself in my code anywhere, let alone where the
compile error is.

If I comment out these lines (and references to the now-missing status
variable), everything else works fine, including displaying a map, so I
know I'm targeting everything properly.

While this project is one that I am migrating from earlier Android
versions, I get the same error if I android create project -t 3 a
fresh project and try using this same code.

I could have sworn I compiled this cleanly on 1.5r1, though I may be
mistaken.

Anybody running into similar problems with 1.5r2?

Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: SampleView in a Layout?

2009-05-30 Thread jcpalmer

Chris,
Sub-Classing View is not going to work. You need to subclass
ViewGroup.  There are many predefined already to choose from.
Here is a LinearLayout Example.

private class sampleViewGroup extends LinearLayout{

private final Button button1;
private final Button button2;
private final Button button3;

public sampleViewGroup(Context context){
super(context);
super.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);

Button button1 = new Button(context);
Button button2 = new Button(context);
Button button3 = new Button(context);

super.addView(button1);
super.addView(button2);
super.addView(button3);
}

[android-developers] Re: Call Activity from Widget, have only one instance. I am confused.

2009-05-30 Thread Tom Gibara
I'm having a similar issue, but related to PendingIntents via notifications.
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/56a0c58dc6e1b0a1#

http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/56a0c58dc6e1b0a1#Like
you, I feel I understand the task concept laid out in docs (that
fundamentals documentation is very good) but but then doubt it when I try to
put things into practice. Setting android:launchMode=singleTask works for
me but has the unwanted side effects described in the link above.

Tom.

2009/5/30 Michael Elsdörfer mich...@elsdoerfer.info


 I've read through the Application Fundamentals three times today (and
 I had done so before), but I still can't quite wrap my ahead around
 the task concept. Or I guess I thought I understood it, but usually,
 the results I am seeing don't match up to what I would expect to
 happen (maybe a tool to see the current tasks/activities etc. for
 debugging purposes would be a nice addition).

 I have multiple widgets from my provider in the Launcher desktop, and
 each is using a PendingIntent with a different URI as data (so they
 should be separate intents) to open an Activity.

 I want there to be only once concurrent instance of this Activity that
 the user can access. So clicking the widget (1) , pressing HOME (2),
 clicking a different widget (3), pressing BACK (4) should bring the
 user back to the Desktop.

 Now I did manage to do this using launchMode=singleTask - the
 existing instance is brought to the top, onNewIntent() is called and I
 am pretty satisfied with it.

 However, supposedly there are other ways to achieve an equivalent
 effect (say with having the activity restarted), and I'd like to
 understand why I don't seem to be able to get them to work: In every
 case, instead of seeing the home screen after step (4) (after pressing
 BACK), I see the *previous* instance of the Activity.

 For example, if I read this correctly:

 There's another way to force activities to be removed from the stack.
 If an Intent object includes the FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP flag, and the
 target task already has an instance of the type of activity that
 should handle the intent in its stack, all activities above that
 instance are cleared away so that it stands at the top of the stack
 and can respond to the intent. If the launch mode of the designated
 activity is standard, it too will be removed from the stack, and a
 new instance will be launched to handle the incoming intent.
 http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html

 Then simply using using the following code to start my Activity from
 my widget should do what I want, no?

 Intent detailIntent = new Intent(context, ViewImageActivity.class);
 detailIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
 PendingIntent pending = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0,
 detailIntent, 0);

 So in (3) My activity should be launched using FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
 by the launcher, which due to process affinity would find the existing
 task (which would consist of a single instance of my Activity), and
 launch the new instance on top of it. This explains what I am seeing.
 Why doesn't FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP cause the existing instance in the
 task to be replaced?

 Even setting android:launchMode explicitely to standard, as
 mentioned in the doc quote above, this doesn't seem to change things.

 I also tried android:finishOnTaskLaunch=true, but the behaviour is
 the exact same was just described with FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP (which
 seems to be the exact same as when doing neither and really starting
 an activity without any special attributes).

 I should mention that  If I click the same widget in (3) as I clicked
 in (1), i.e. using the same PendingIntent twice, I do get the previous
 instance brought to the front (not restarted), but again, regardless
 of whether FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP or finishOnTaskLaunch are being
 used.

 I find this especially strange since the docs about tasks don't seem
 to mention the intent itself being relevant at all. Application
 Fundamentals does at one point say For the default standard mode, a
 new instance is created to respond to every new intent, but it's not
 clear what new intent means then. Is triggering a PendingIntent
 multiple times through a widget not multiple new intents then?

 I also tried various combinations of the other related options, but
 pretty much got nowhere.

 Can anybody make sense of this?

 Well, read the link I sent. If you're using encryption, presumably
 you're worried about somebody attempting to snoop your traffic. If
 you're worried about that, then self-signed certificates are something
 to avoid, unless you can hard code the certificate in your app then
 check it against what the WebView received, but i'm not sure there's
 an API for that. If you're not worried about MITM attacks then you
 don't need encryption (bear in mind 3G is already encrypted).

[android-developers] getFromLocation broken with Android 1.5 SDK?

2009-05-30 Thread pawpaw17

I just upgraded to v1.5 (running in Eclipse on Windows) today and all
calls to getFromLocation()
return immediately without an exception. However the locations object
that is returned contains no
entries. Is anyone else seeing this? I see some earlier posts, but
surely if they are shipping cupcake
this week this must be rectified by now.

Is the message about the maps external library related? See:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/RELEASENOTES.html

I'm only geocoding, I don't have any mapviews. I do, however, invoke
an intent for a google map.
I don't see the maps app installed in the 1.5 emulator. Do I have to
get something extra for that?

Thanks for any help.

[android-developers] Re: Missing MapPoint in 1.5r2?

2009-05-30 Thread Mark Murphy

 Please file a bug at b.android.com and we'll have a look. A small
 code/apk snippet would be ideal too.

Filed as:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2806

I tested this code under 1.5_r1 and 1.5_r2:

package com.commonsware.android;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.google.android.maps.GeoPoint;

public class GeoPointBug extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

GeoPoint status=new GeoPoint(0, 0);

finish();
}
}

1.5_r1 compiles fine. 1.5_r2 fails with:

[javac] class file for com.google.map.MapPoint not found

This sure feels like it's somehow a bug in my environments. I've tried
it on two different PCs, one using a freshly-downloaded 1.5_r2, and they
both give the error.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: Testing among peers - A new group proposed

2009-05-30 Thread Eric Wong (hdmp4.com)

I am in if this idea goes anywhere :)

It is probably better for you to recruit power (geek) users to do the
testing and free up developer time to actually work on the apks.

Note: I am a power user, not developer.

 Hi,

 I would like to propose a test exchange where few can test  apps for
 others and vice versa. We can go by credit system where when you test
 an app you get credits and use when your app is being tested by
 others.

 Or may be even have developers purchase the credits. Revenue can be
 shared among testers and site operator.

 More over we will get a real world test and feedback. We can code the
 apps to function only for 30 days or so for test trials.

 Please advice.

[android-developers] Re: How to find out screen status: active/dark?

Got it, thank you; works perfectly.

 You can listen for Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF and ACTION_SCREEN_ON
 broadcasts.  However, I would strongly recommend registering for these
 dynamically at runtime using Context.registerReceiver().  This ensures
 that you'll only receive the broadcasts if your Service is already
 awake, which is what you want.  :)

[android-developers] Open-Source Opertunity

2009-05-30 Thread Alex Jurgensen

Hi,
All,

I was wondering if some developers would like to work on Android  
Accessibility. It is Open-Source and hosted on Google code.

The URL is:

http://slimvoice.googlecode.com/ .

Any help is appreciated. A To-dos list can be found in the downloads  
section in the SAML specifications package.

Regards,
Aex,

running?
2) if the upper question's anwser is yes, is there a method that A

[android-developers] Re: Google Talk Shared Status Messages

2009-05-30 Thread Micah

Just wanted to bump this up to see if anyone on the weekend browsing
crew knew an answer.

On May 23, 3:18 pm, Micah mi...@ourmailbox.net wrote:
 I'm interested in creating an Android application that will set the
 user's Google Talk custom status message to something created by my
 application.  Details on doing this can be found 
 athttp://code.google.com/apis/talk/jep_extensions/shared_status.html.

 Since a user running Android (at least on the G1 w/ T-Mobile) is
 always signed in to their Google Account, is there a way to leverage
 that and not require the user enter credentials into my application?
 If not, is there an easy-to-use XMPP interface available or am I stuck
 with writing a XMPP client from scratch?

 Alternatively, does the Google Talk application running on Android
 phones support any intents that I could use to tell it to change the
 user's status?

 While researching this issue I have come across a number of pages that
 reference what appears to be a deprecated
 com.google.android.xmppservice and com.google.android.gtalkservice.
 Is there a replacement for either of those or were they removed
 without replacement?
