[android-developers] Re: Cannot find provider package when using ProviderTestCase2 to test
I believe you'll get this error message if there is no Android app with package name com.android.abc.providers installed on the device. Without more context it will be difficult to diagnose your problem. You can use this command adb shell pm list packages to retrieve the list of packages installed on the device. Are your tests included in the app with packageName com.android.abc.providers, or is that a separate application?

[android-developers] Re: Could NOT Upgrade App in Market!
Tried again and got error message The apk must be signed with at least one certificate in common with the previous version.. This is one step progress (better than no message at all) but still wrong within the Android market app upgrade function, because, 1. I meant to try the old version apk file and got the same error message as well. 2. I use jarsigner -verify -verbose -certs command to verify both the old version apk file and the new version, confirm that both signed with the same certification key: [certificate is valid from 5/5/09 5:26 AM to 4/29/34 5:26 AM] The new version apk file can be found here: http://zz-doctor.googlecode.com/files/ZZ.apk I can change submit the new version as a new app, just not so friendly to users installed old version. I like the votings I gained but that's not so important compare to the existing users' feeling to be ignored. I would like to wait to the end of this week.

Hi, You can do this by using content providers. You can listen to changes in content://sms uri and for sent messages you go through content://sms/sent and find the new sent messages.

[android-developers] Re: 1dp=1/160 inch ?
No, not really. If you have a 200 dpi screen, it would be theoretically 1.25px. But since you can't have a 1/4 pixel, it basically has to be rounded down to 1. So on 200 dpi 1 dp would be 1/200 inch. However, 4dp will be 4 pixel on 160 dpi screen and 5 px on a 200 dpi one. Or in other words 1/40 inch or 1/50 inch on 200 dpi.

[android-developers] Re: Android 1.1 virtual devices don't show up as run targets
I just received a reply via email; the answer is: It's not sufficient to set minSdkVersion to 2, one must also go to project -- settings -- build target and select 1.1 there. That doesn't really help though, because now the resource compiler breaks on any imeOptions attributes, even though those are supposed to be simply ignore by the 1.1 runtime... In other words, to test your app on different Android versions, you must set up two different code bases, even though it's not necessary (because an APK built using 1.5 and having minSdkVersion 2 would also run on 1.1, unless of course you use 1.5 specific APIs).

[android-developers] Re: handling touch events in MapView
On issue #1, I scavenged some online code snippet and tweaked it to work properly to translate from screen pixel to GeoPoint:: private GeoPoint pixelToGeoPoint(int selectedPixelX, int selectedPixelY) { Log.v(LOG_ID, selectedPixel=[ + selectedPixelX + , + selectedPixelY + ]); // center point in udegrees GeoPoint center = mapView.getMapCenter(); int centerUdegreesX = center.getLongitudeE6(); int centerUdegreesY = center.getLatitudeE6(); Log.v(LOG_ID, centerUdegrees=[ + centerUdegreesX + , + centerUdegreesY + ]); // dimension of view area in udegrees int viewUdegreesX = mapView.getLongitudeSpan(); int viewUdegreesY = mapView.getLatitudeSpan(); Log.v(LOG_ID, viewUdegrees=[ + viewUdegreesX + , + viewUdegreesY + ]); // dimension of view area in pixels int viewPixelsX = mapView.getWidth(); int viewPixelsY = mapView.getHeight(); Log.v(LOG_ID, viewPixels=[ + viewPixelsX + , + viewPixelsY + ]); // center point in pixels int centerPixelX = viewPixelsX / 2; int centerPixelY = viewPixelsY / 2; Log.v(LOG_ID, centerPixel=[ + centerPixelX + , + centerPixelY + ]); // udegrees per pixel int udegreesPerPixelX = viewUdegreesX / viewPixelsY; int udegreesPerPixelY = viewUdegreesY / viewPixelsX; Log.v(LOG_ID, udegreesPerPixel=[ + udegreesPerPixelX + , + udegreesPerPixelY + ]); // delta from center of selection, in pixels int deltaPixelX = selectedPixelX - centerPixelX; int deltaPixelY = selectedPixelY - centerPixelY; Log.v(LOG_ID, deltaPixel=[ + deltaPixelX + , + deltaPixelY + ]); // delta from center of selection, in udegrees int deltaUdegreesX = udegreesPerPixelX * deltaPixelX; int deltaUdegreesY = -udegreesPerPixelY * deltaPixelY; Log.v(LOG_ID, deltaUdegrees=[ + deltaUdegreesX + , + deltaUdegreesY + ]); // selection in udegrees int selectedUdegreesX = centerUdegreesX + deltaUdegreesX; int selectedUdegreesY = centerUdegreesY + deltaUdegreesY; Log.v(LOG_ID, selectedUdegrees=[ + selectedUdegreesX + , + selectedUdegreesY + ]); GeoPoint selectedPoint = new GeoPoint(selectedUdegreesY, selectedUdegreesX); return selectedPoint; } This works in the case where either entire view area is covered with map. However, if you zoom out far enough, you can go off the top or bottom of the map. In this case, mapView.getMapCenter() returns a point off the map (i.e., 90 or -90 degrees), but mapView.getLatitudeSpan() returns the height of only the viewable area. So, it throws the math off. And I can't figure out a way to grab either the center of the displayed map section, or the height in microdegrees of the entire viewable area. I can't even find anything in the API to return any indication that part of the view is off the map.

Requirement: I have created a MapActivity containing a MapView. Drag and zoom work fine, and I've successfully added an ItemizedOverlay that displays and updates properly. Right now I can add OverlayItems to the map center via a button, but I would like to add functionality allowing the user to issue a long click to add an OverlayItem to the map at the selected location. Issue 1 (minor): It seems like there should be an easy way to determine the geo location for a click event in MapView, but from what I've gathered it requires writing my own pixel-latlong translation based on the view span. Not a deal breaker, but seems like a common enough use case to warrant addition to the API. Issue 2 (average): My first attempt was to use setLongClickable(true) and setOnLongClickListener, but that doesn't provide the click location. The only param it receives it the View object, but I couldn't find any way to determine the location of the click event. Issue 3 (major): My second attempt was to use setOnTouchListener. This seems completely broken to me. If I return true (ie, consume event) I continue getting all touch events, but drag and zoom of the MapView do not work. That seems like expected behavior. If I return false (ie, do not consume the event) the map view continues to work correctly. My listener receives ONLY the first touch event. Stepping through in debug, it looks like MapView.mOnTouchListener gets set to something like ZoomListener (that's not the exact name, but it's close to that) and then to null shortly after my listener is invoked.

[android-developers] Timeout using apache DefaultHttpClient not working when port is closed
I have a simple piece of code that allows a user to specify a URL, port, username, and password to grab a frame from a network camera. An exception is thrown properly if the url can't be resolved, or if the authentication fails. However, I can't seem to throw an exception in a reasonable amount of time if the server is available but the port is closed (or the user entered the wrong port number). It just seems to sit and wait for a *long* time... HttpParams params = new BasicHttpParams(); HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(params, netConnectTimeout); HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(params, netReadTimeout); DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(params); httpclient.setHttpRequestRetryHandler(new DefaultHttpRequestRetryHandler(0, false)); UsernamePasswordCredentials credentials = new UsernamePasswordCredentials(username + : + password); httpclient.getCredentialsProvider().setCredentials(new AuthScope (hostName,port),credentials); HttpGet method = new HttpGet(cameraUrl); HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(method); (netConnectTimeout netReadTimeout are both set to 1) After doing a substantial amount of reading, I believe I understand why netConnectTimeout and netReadTimeout have no effect on this particular problem. After discovering HttpRequestRetryHandler I believed I had found the solution. However after applying what I had found to my code (line 5 above), it had no effect. The connection still sits and waits far longer than 10 seconds when the incorrect port is specified in the prefs.

[android-developers] handling touch events in MapView
(If there's a better place to post questions concerning the Google Maps API please let me know, but it looks like this is the right spot.) Requirement: I have created a MapActivity containing a MapView. Drag and zoom work fine, and I've successfully added an ItemizedOverlay that displays and updates properly. Right now I can add OverlayItems to the map center via a button, but I would like to add functionality allowing the user to issue a long click to add an OverlayItem to the map at the selected location. Issue 1 (minor): It seems like there should be an easy way to determine the geo location for a click event in MapView, but from what I've gathered it requires writing my own pixel-latlong translation based on the view span. Not a deal breaker, but seems like a common enough use case to warrant addition to the API. Issue 2 (average): My first attempt was to use setLongClickable(true) and setOnLongClickListener, but that doesn't provide the click location. The only param it receives it the View object, but I couldn't find any way to determine the location of the click event. Issue 3 (major): My second attempt was to use setOnTouchListener. This seems completely broken to me. If I return true (ie, consume event) I continue getting all touch events, but drag and zoom of the MapView do not work. That seems like expected behavior. If I return false (ie, do not consume the event) the map view continues to work correctly. My listener receives ONLY the first touch event. Stepping through in debug, it looks like MapView.mOnTouchListener gets set to something like ZoomListener (that's not the exact name, but it's close to that) and then to null shortly after my listener is invoked. Is there another preferred way of handling touch events in MapView? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Interacting with remote databases
Hi All, Lets say Im creating an Android app for a company that already provides some sort of online service. I want my android app to extend this online service and I want the app to interact with my remote databases, would I embed a web browser in my application or directly connect to my remote database from within my code? If I am directly connected to a database from within code and not through a web browser, would that be a security risk since the connection info would be distributed in the code?

[android-developers] Re: handling touch events in MapView
On issue 3, I was able to work around it by extending MapView and overriding onTouchEvent(). I found that if I used MapView.setOnTouchListener() directly, MapView itself would call setOnTouchListener(), discarding my listener and replacing it with a zoom listener.

[android-developers] Re: asterisk in layout file
The asterisk is used to access private resources. Do NOT use it, it will automatically break with the next update of Android. This mechanism can only be used with applications that are compiled at the same time as the entire system. Unlike private Java APIs, which may or may not disappear/break with a new release of the system, private resources are pretty much guaranteed to change. A resource is identified by a generated number. Public resources have a number that stays the same from release to release whereas private resources get a different number every time.

I actually do use the Thread.sleep as a hack (i don't like it, but it works...) It just sleeps for just 20 milli seconds, though. It's enough for a notable improvement in the frame-rate of the other thread (game- thread) and not too big to miss input events. I only do it on the ACTION_MOVE.
