[android-developers] Re: Can I use OpenGL to make Bitmap without GLSurfaceView

[Robert Green]

Awesome that you worked that out - but man... that sure isn't
lightweight!  I bet you could get substantial performance gains doing
that conversion natively and passing the processed array up to java.

Re: [android-developers] Activity Not coming to foreground

This is typo mistake, I want to say that we can't use intent.getIntent(),
This method is depricated now.

 So, please choose another option like onNewIntent() or sendbrodcast.

[android-developers] JIT compiler explanation

[Justin King]

Hello everyone,

Is anyone able to explain to me exactly what the upcoming JIT compiler will
provide? For example, I have Java programs that generate bytecode at runtime
which I would like to port to android. Will the JIT compiler make this
possible by converting the runtime generated Java byte code to Dalvik at
runtime as required?

Thanks!

Justin

[android-developers] Re: widget doesn't fresh on verizon droid, but works fine on HTC eris.

[JP]

Actually a small addition. It's not only your service that's "in
jeopardy".
I have a similar problem and find that the Widget is being killed by
the OS almost immediately out of the gate. From far looks like what
you describe.
There's a way to start Services in the foreground (through
startForeground()), but I haven't yet figured out how to protect a
Widget in a similar fashion.

[android-developers] Re: Market

[Lance Nanek]

>I'm not even quite sure why it would be necessary.

This ability would be great for any application that has a free
version and a paid version. Often the free version wants to offer a
button to open the market details page for the paid version. There's
no good way to tell if the paid version is available to the user,
however.

>you could query Cyrket

Using Cyrket would give false positives. Paid apps, for example, are
only visible to users in certain countries on certain carriers. The
Cyrket method would claim all users can see them. It lists paid apps,
so its scraper must be in a country and on a carrier that supports
them.

[android-developers] Listening for Bluetooth events and AVRCP profile

[Moto]

I need to find out the following information or guidance to achieve a
solution:

1. I want to be able to capture bluetooth state changes, particularly
when it's paired and when it's not.  I do see I can possibly catch the
intent "android.bluetooth.a2dp.intent.action.SINK_STATE_CHANGED" but
how reliable is this throughout devices since I can't find it on the
APIs?

2. I want to be able to send now playing information to the paired
device.  I assume this is done via the AVRCP profile.  Does Android
support this profile?  I could not find it in the APIs but did find
some info that is supported by android on this site.

Thanks for all the help in advance!

[android-developers] Re: widget doesn't fresh on verizon droid, but works fine on HTC eris.

[JP]

What you should look for:
If you use a background service, check Logcat for something like
"Process  (pid <...>) has died" to see if the OS is
pulling the plug on your widget's background service.

Thanks, I have tried to use gdx on my project, but I can´t configure Eclipse
properly to use libgdx.so and libandroidgl20.so. I have created the folder
armeabi with both of them inside and added the jars, but when I launch the
application I get an error because it can not find the library. Can you help
me, please?

[android-developers] Re: Maximum Texture Units

[Lance Nanek]

It wouldn't surprise me if the Droid has that little. Its graphics
solution breaks the scene up into tiles, which results in less data
being needed at any one time. It also performs depth testing before
doing the texturing, so uses less texture data due to that as well.

Isn't OpenGL supposed to transparently start swapping texture objects
between main memory and video memory for you when you run out of video
memory? Using it all up may manifest more as a noticeable drop in
performance than an outright error.

[android-developers] Re: Can't upload my .apk to the market - minSdkVersion error every time.

[Lance Nanek]

>'No resource identifier found for attribute 'targetSdkVersion' in package 
>'android'

This sort of error is usually from having a project build target lower
than when a feature was introduced. I think targetSdkVersion was added
in Android 1.6, for example, so you'd have to increase the project
build target to at least that in order to use it without an error.

No idea about your original error. Some random things you can check, I
guess: Those weird hyphens you posted in the XML aren't actually in
there, right? Your project build target is set to Android 1.5? You
have the latest ADT Eclipse plugin and latest SDK updates? You could
also try creating a new Android project, copying your old source files
and resources in, and redoing your manifest from the default one just
to be absolutely sure nothing is screwed up.

Can't you just findViewById(int) for whichever view you want to fiddle with
and set whatever properties you want on if after you get it? After calling

[Savgrr]

I tried to add the android:targetSdkVersion attribute and I got an
error msg that said

 'No resource identifier found for attribute 'targetSdkVersion' in
package 'android'

Does that make sense? I am so frustrated. The app works great it just
won't upload onto the Market. Is there a way to just bypass it?

I'm developing a widget based on this tutorial.
 
http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/04/introducing-home-screen-widgets-and.html

the same code works fine on my HTC eris. but on the verizon droid, the
widget doesn't refresh. the widget updates the time i add it on the
home screen. but after that it freezed.

the droid runs a 2.1 os while the eris runs 1.5. can this be the
problem?

I'm updating an image view with this code:

 updateViews.setImageViewResource(R.id.xxx,.);


is there anybody having the same issue? do you know the solution?

[android-developers] Re: Can I use OpenGL to make Bitmap without GLSurfaceView

[Streets Of Boston]

Below is a snippet of code that turns a buffer from GL into a buffer
that can be used by a Bitmap.
I'm not sure if you can get a buffer from GL without been having
showing it before or if this is what you're exactly looking for.
But here goes anyway :-)



public void savePixels(int x, int y, int w, int h, GL10 gl) {
if (gl == null)
return;

// synchronized (this) {
// if (mSavedBM != null) {
// mSavedBM.recycle();
// mSavedBM = null;
// }
// }

int b[] = new int[w * (y + h)];
int bt[] = new int[w * h];
IntBuffer ib = IntBuffer.wrap(b);
ib.position(0);
gl.glReadPixels(x, 0, w, y + h, GL10.GL_RGBA,GL10.GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE,
ib);

for (int i = 0, k = 0; i < h; i++, k++) {// remember, that OpenGL
bitmap
// is incompatible with
// Android bitmap
   // and so, some correction need.
for (int j = 0; j < w; j++) {
int pix = b[i * w + j];
int pb = (pix >> 16) & 0xff;
int pr = (pix << 16) & 0x00ff;
int pix1 = (pix & 0xff00ff00) | pr | pb;
bt[(h - k - 1) * w + j] = pix1;
}
}

Bitmap sb = Bitmap.createBitmap(bt, w, h, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_);
synchronized (this) {
mSavedBM = sb;
}
}

[android-developers] Double click on app widget

[westmeadboy]

Is it possible to listen for double click events on an app widget?

Judging by the api, it appears not, but I think this would be really
useful.

I suppose a workaround would be to use an onClick pending intent to an
activity that checks if its been started twice in quick succession -
but this seems nasty...

[android-developers] Activity and view inflation

[Michael Scott]

I have an Acitivity and I would like to fiddle with the views upon
creation. I thought that the way to do this would be to hook in on
onCreateView during inflation. But the method just doesn't get called,
no matter if I use setContentView(id) or onCreateView(view) with a
View I inflated with getLayoutInflater.inflate(id) ( or
(LayoutInflater)getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE).inflate(id) ).
Have I misunderstood how it should work? Or what am I doing wrong?

[android-developers] Can I use OpenGL to make Bitmap without GLSurfaceView

[SChaser]

I would like to be able to use OpenGL in the Android to render into a
bitmap (or any other sort of buffer I can turn into one), without
actually displaying a GLSurfaceView.

The purpose is to dynamically create very complex images using OpenGL,
and then drawing those images on the canvas of a MapView.

I have tried overlaying a translucent GLSurfaceView over a MapView, my
preferred approach, but it has some problems:

1) I have complex menus I need to display from either the MapView or
the GLSurfaceView. I have been doing this using a ListView with its
own activity. Unfortunately, that activity pushes the MapView down the
stack. The result is a bit of flickering when the ListView activity
finishes, popping the MapView back to the top. Even worse, if I use
the ListView to overlay the GLSurfaceView (giving it the same complex
menu capabilities), when it finishes, the GLSurfaceView reappears but
the MapView doesn't display.

2)As soon as the GLSurfaceView is created, the MapView stops fetching
and rendering tiles. There seems to be no way to know when the MapView
is complete, so I have to delay an arbitrary interval before creating
the surfaceview.

3) When the GLSurfaceView is present, the MapView's built-in user
interface functions are obscured.

Anyone know if there is a way around any of these problems?

[android-developers] some users getting package not signed correctly

[Peter Jeffe]

A small percentage of our users are getting a package not signed
correctly error when installing our app that was downloaded from the
Market.  They can't re-download from the Market, so we are having to
get them to download and install it from our site, which works fine.
It seems to happen to maybe 1% of our users, and only for our paid
app, not for the free one (at least that we've heard of, naturally the
paid users are going to contact us more than the free ones).

I'm guessing it's a problem when the download is corrupted for some
reason, but in that case shouldn't the Market let them re-download it
and try again?

Anyone else seeing this?

ffmpeg and mpg123 are the ones that I know of for MP3, don't know of
any for OGG.  I don't think you're going to find a Java decoder, and
certainly not in real time.

The decodeImage() method you supply is fine. However, do not call it as
shown. That requires you to call it on the main application thread,
because you are updating the UI. It is not safe to make HTTP requests on
the main application thread, because you do not know how long they will
take to process.

One approach is to call decodeImage() in the doInBackground() method of
an AsyncTask, then update the ImageView in the task's onPostExecute().
Have the ImageView show some placeholder image at the outset, so while
the download is happening, the user sees something, which then gets
replaced by the real image once it is downloaded.

There's a lot more that an app should consider: caching, detecting
connectivity, doing something more with the exceptions than quietly
logging them, etc.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Newb: Display URL Image

[Jose Gomez]

If you are just trying to make the ImageView display an image from a URL use
this function.

private Bitmap decodeImage(String url) {

 URL aURL;

 try {

 aURL = new URL(url);

 URLConnection conn = aURL.openConnection();

 conn.connect();

 InputStream is = conn.getInputStream();

 BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is);

 Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(bis);

 bis.close();

 is.close();

 return bm;

 } catch (MalformedURLException e) {

 e.printStackTrace();

 } catch (IOException e) {

 e.printStackTrace();

 }

 return null;

 }
}


call the function as
imgView.setImageBitmap(decodeImage("http://sss.jpg";));

Re: [android-developers] Re: Android ANT compilation

I laughed when I read your first line.  Fair enough on your part but you 
need to balance how much time you spend with making the most elegant, 
portable, manageable etc and just getting it done.

I stop just short of being dogmatic about #1! That is, I stop short of
saying "you're wrong!" -- but I do urge you (and others) to think long
and hard about it -- and be open to the possibility that later thought
an experience may show a better way. That's been my experience, and my
experience is pretty broad and deep -- but not universal.

Generally, I find that the run-time decisions involved can be made
once, in a compatibility module, at a trivial cost. This also avoids
polluting your code with lots of conditionalizations -- a problem for
either runtime or preprocessor-time conditionalization.

If there are key pieces that simply must have a pre-computed
expression, and you can't afford a method call (benchmark, don't
assume!), then I would go for limited code generation. Code generation
can do everything that preprocessing can do -- but it has more clearly
defined scope and effects. Actually, it's a much more powerful
technique.

My technique for building multiple app versions from a single Android
Eclipse project does involve something you might term preprocessing,
kind of. The one java file which gets massaged is R.java, which gets
the package changed. So you could consider that post processing a
generated file! But that's just because I don't have control over the
generator -- and I think I may have a solution. If so, that'll be one
more instance of the pattern -- you think you need a preprocessor, but
eventually, you figure out there's a better way.

Re #3 -- it's possible to set up one Eclipse project to use Java code
from another. However, I'm really hesitant to even try to explain it,
since there are variants and even I find it confusing -- and then you
have to make it compatible with your non-IDE build. So generally do it
with ant, like it sounds like you're about to do. Just to be sure to
properly set the the ant build task up properly, telling it what
sources should trigger the build and what outputs to refresh. If you
do that, then everything will be rebuilt properly, and you won't have
to rebuild excessively.

Re #4 -- yes, mostly it's user config, a list of projects, various
cached data, etc. etc. There are some settings that may affect the
building of the project -- these are mostly defaults, that can be set
per-project. It's good practice to do that -- except then if you have
a lot of projects that work together, then you have the problem of
coordinating changes in the project settings. An example would be Java
language version settings, or enabling/disabling compiler warnings.

I sympathize with the difficult transition. I've been using the Emacs
command set since before it was Emacs (and was written in ITS Teco),
and it was a long time before I found IDEs to add sufficient value to
be worth it.  That's one reason I was never a heavy NetBeans user
(though NetBeans has progressed since then as well).

But Eclipse really does bring a lot of value to Java programming, with
its deeper understanding of the code. You'll find its support for
other programming languages to be disappointing -- C++ for example. In
part, that's because C++ syntax and semantics are just too
complicated, and then you have the preprocessor...but there are better
tools for C++.

Thank you for the well thought out response, I got some good tips out of it.

1) I just can't agree with this one and apparently Sun doesn't either as
they added the preprocessor support.  The thing is that for a j2se
project you could use interfaces and other run-time solutions and throw
more hardware at it.  For a phone you are already hardware limited and
don't want to pay for anything at run-time that can be determined at
compile time.

2) Great. I will have to invest more time looking into this.

3) Score again.  This wasn't an editing outside of Eclipse problem.  The
problem is with two Eclipse projects sharing some common code. I edit it
in one project and the other one doesn't get refreshed even if it's
opened in the same workspace.  So thanks for the tip as this will help.  
Still I wish I could put all my code in one tree and make a BlackBerry

project and Android project that just filters parts of the code.  I
looked into this was unable to grok the help/examples for this.

4) I never even considered that a project could be outside of a
workspace.  Cool. I will try that.  It's all the .metadata stuff that I
was at odds with. So it's per user config and nothing to do with the
project?

Being an ex Emacs user that decided to just start using what everyone
else uses, I am very open to Eclipse but it's been a hard one to swallow
:)  Thanks for some good tips to make it more palatable

You will need to write your own logic to intercept the MENU keypress and
display something of your own design. Option menus have captions. Sorry!

Hi,

I created a basic options menu, here an example of creating an element

As you can see I don't want to show any text in this menu, just an

But when the menu is showed, there is a "ugly" blank under the icon
(the text is supposed to be there)
and I want to avoid this.
A least if it's possible to center the icon the options menus, it will

Re: [android-developers] Change the playback rate of a track in real time

[yakura y]

Thanks Anurag,

I have fixed the error. At the end, I have used an implementation with
AudioTrack. It seems to be ideal for what I am trying to do, but I have
another question:

Is there any library out there that it allows to decode mp3/ogg to wav in
android in realtime? (not necessarily in realtime but it could be great). I
think I need to use the NDK but I would not like to have to manage with
that.

Thanks

[android-developers] Re: Maximum Texture Units

[Robert Green]

I remember reading that the MSM7200-based phones have 8mb of VRAM and
so I have to imagine that you could count on at least that much for
the better GPUs.

What's weird though is that I keep finding things talking about how
the PowerVR SGX530 has 2MB of VRAM which seems awfully low - unless
that's a texture cache and there is a larger chunk of VRAM that is
implementation-specific.  I don't know..

I couldn't find any info on the QS8250 (snapdragon 1ghz) VRAM.

So far I've never run out of vram on any device and I'm loading quite
a bit in on some games.

Antigen uses:
256x512 32 bit for story start text atlas
256x512 32 bit for main text atlas
256x512 32 bit for level bg front
512x512 16 bit for level bg back
5 256x256 32 bit for characters, shading and faces
7 64x64 32 bit for items
several for the HUD
and many other smaller ones for glow, particles, etc..

My new 3D game uses (all mipmapped so add 33% more size on):
1024x1024 16 bit for main level texture
512x512 16 bit for level lightmap
4x 512x512 16 bit for characters
3x 256x256 16 bit for weapons
256x512 32 bit for text atlas
about 512K-1MB of geometry VBOs
256x256 32 bit for HUD graphics
Many smaller 32 bit ones for projectiles and other small things

So really there seems to be ample room there.  Both of those scenarios
load fine on a G1.

If you want to write an easy test, write a loop that loads up a 512 32
bit (1MB) texture into VRAM and keep count of how many times it works
until gl.glGetError() returns the out of memory error after
glTexImage2D.  I'd be curious as to what your results are.

Re: [android-developers] BroadcastReceiver, Intent objects

[Anurag Singh]

Yeah, there's no fucntion available in intent class. But you can putExtra
putExtra
(String  name,
long value) to
recongnize any known scenario. On the other end use getExtra to get the same
value.

There are so many similar function described in intent class, you can try
according to your need.
