In HAL level, I try to set GPS_STATUS_SESSION_BEGIN to alert AP to update gps status by callback function. It can't be workable. Do they have any relationship or I need to implement by another way?

gl.glGenTextures(2, textures_ids);
gl.glBindTexture(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_2D, textures_ids.get(0));

gl.glEnableClientState(GL10.GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY);
gl.glTexCoordPointer(2, GL10.GL_FLOAT, 0,textureBuffer);
}
The vertexbuffer contains a points for a sphere and the texturebuffer
contains the normals for that, I meet an horrible result and I don't
understand what's wrong...
This is the result img:
I am working with android OpenGL ES but I think error isn't correlated
with my platform but is correlated with my use of OpenGL API, I am a
newbye with this library.
Thanks so much in advance.

[android-developers] Re: AES in Gingerbread
I wonder if you realize that sr.setSeed(seed) does *NOT*, repeat *NOT* set a SecureRandom to produce a predictable series of values? Not only would that no longer be secure, it's not what setSeed() does for a SecureRandom. Instead, it supplements the existing seed (which is beyond your control when created as below). You'd have to supply the seed in the constructor. And if you are expecting SecureRandom to produce the same series of values (as seen by KeyGenerator), or KeyGenerator to produce the same key, between two versions of the OS, you're relying on something which is not documented. Reproducability is just not part of their job. I strongly suspect (and fear) that you're screwed, and your users are likely screwed as well. Sorry to deliver bad news. If you like, post more about what you're doing and maybe we can help you figure out the way forward. On Dec 10, 11:30 am, Steve Hugg hun...@fasterlight.com wrote: More debugging on this issue...

[android-developers] Re: Cannot compile Desk Alarm Clock (branch eclair ver 2.1)
Indeed. This is called eating your own dogfood, and it's a highly valuable part of creating a high-quality product. If there's ANY reason this would inconvenience the developers, than that's a red flag that there's something that needs to be addressed -- whether it's the build/release system or inadequacies in the API, or things which aren't public which should be public (perhaps after some improvements are made and stability achieved). I'd strongly recommend a goal that anything and everything that possibly could be, be buildable with the SDK using public APIs and tools. Even the privileged stuff (which might fail at runtime with a security exception if not signed with the proper key for the platform -- but should still be buildable separately if the appropriate key is available). I suspect this would even end up making life easier for the developers of those apps.

Is there anyone that can help me? -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy)http://commonsware.com|http://github.com/commonsguyhttp://commonsware.com/blog|http://twitter.com/commonsguy Warescription: Three Android Books, Plus Updates, One Low Price! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: How to store date and time in database
Be very, very, VERY careful about storing date and time information in a textual format. There are boundary conditions, timezone issues, leap-year issues, skipped-leap-year-issues, leap seconds, and finally, localization issues, which can all reach out and bite you in ways you may not consider. Generally, the best option is to not worry about all this, and (as Kostya rightly points out) use the system-provided utilities for interpreting dates (if you receive them as text), or work entirely with longs and never deal with text at all except when displaying to the user (with proper consideration of timezone and localization). Otherwise, you're taking on a considerable coding and testing burden AND a good deal of risk. The only downside is it makes examining stored date/time data much more difficult, but you can write a little calculator to do this. Java and Javascript date formats (and pretty much everybody else) use seconds since 00:00 January 1, 1970 UTC as their representation, so you can make yourself (or probably find pre-made) a little web page that converts them for you.

Store it any way you want. If you want to do selection by date I'd favor long integer (seconds since 1970), unless you need sub-second resolution.

The following articles may help give some insight: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4248064/delphi-sqlite-date-time-fo... http://www.sqlite.org/lang_datefunc.html Typically what you will do is create some database implemented via a content provider or just database handler (see the many, many tutorials on how to do this) and create a table for storing your relevant information. For example, I have a contents table, where one of the columns is the date an article was published. Now the only thing you have to figure out is the marshaling.

[android-developers] Re: How to store date and time in database
Well, you can store time as date-time modulo 24 hours -- fits easily in 32 bits. Otherwise, probably some sort of hours/minutes/seconds triplet (or just hours/minutes).

Java date/time stamps are internally represented by long values, the value being the number of milliseconds since Jan. 1, 1970 GMT. SQLite natively supports long (64-bit) interger values (use INTEGER data type). So, for storing date/time stamp, call long milliseconds = Date.getTime() and store the long integer value in the database. When retrieving, get the long integer from the database, then construct new Date(long milliseconds). This has two advantages: - No text parsing or formatting necessary, smaller chance of bugs - Ability to sort or select before / after a certain date/time value when doing SELECT Hope this helps. -- Kostya 27.12.2010 10:06, Kristopher Micinski пишет: http://sberka.blogspot.com/2009/07/date-time-sqlite-and-android.html That blog post should point you in the right direction.

[android-developers] Cursor.getString() truncating Strings issue
Hi All,
I have an app that stores it's local data in a database, The database has a
TEXT field called description that on some rows is truncated on retrieval. I
have checked the database by running it app in the emulator and grabbing the
database and checking the contents. So I know the data is there. I retrieve
it using:
public Cursor getAdditiveByRowID(long rowId) throws SQLException
{
Cursor mCursor =
db.query(true, Additives.DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {
Additives.KEY_ROWID,
Additives.KEY_IDENTIFIER,
Additives.KEY_NAME,
Additives.KEY_TYPE,
Additives.KEY_DESCRIPTION,
Additives.KEY_ACKNOWLEDGEMENT,
Additives.KEY_WARNING
},
Additives.KEY_ROWID + = + rowId,
null,
null,
null,
null,
null);
if (mCursor != null) {
mCursor.moveToFirst();
}
return mCursor;
}
When I use it the code looks like this:
if (cursor.moveToPosition(position))
{
Log.i(TAG,contents from cursor =
+cursor.getString(Additives.DESCRIPTION_COLUMN));
..
record.setDescription(cursor.getString(Additives.DESCRIPTION_COLUMN));
..
}
I checked the output and it appears to be truncating the output at various
stages (one it is 1980 chars before truncating and another it is 257 chars)
with some rows only. I checked for bad chars but as I thought it was fine (the
same database is used in my iPhone app with no problems) So it must be
something I am doing. But I can not see where as it is wrong as soon as it
comes from the database. Any assistance or advice to debug this would be more
than helpful.
Regards
Damien

I've been digging around in Google searches anyway. I did finally find the problem. The Eclipse preview code absolutely REQUIRES that you provide the AttributeSet that was passed in to your custom widget for any widgets you create programmatically inside it.

(Ignore the previous garbage post; it posted while I was typing; who knows why. Mouse was nowhere near the Send button). I would recommend storing the date+time in milliseconds as a single field, just as Java's Date class does. This makes sorting work 100% properly -- a benefit I forgot to mention in my previous message. My previous message also said seconds since 1 January 1970, when it should have said milliseconds. That is, it's counting seconds, in a fixed-point format with millisecond resolution.

Re: [android-developers] Re: OpenGL Problem with Sphere Texture Mapping
Pedro, A normal is a unit vector (length == 1) that is perpendicular to the surface. Normals are used for shading, so don't worry about them too much for now. Texture coordinates, as was already pointed out here, are in 2D space, i.e. two coordinates. The reason is that textures are 2-dimensional, and texture coordinates specify which point within the texture should be mapped to a particular vertex in 3D space. Imagine that the texture is a stretchable, initially square, piece of fabric. Each UV coordinate represents a point within that square. For each vertex, the point within the texture specified for that vertex by UV coordinates is glued to the vertex. Then the texture is allowed to stretch between vertexes. What sort of texture coordinates you generate is entirely up to you. A simple way to texture map a sphere is to wrap the texture into a vertical cylinder around the sphere, then pull the top and bottom towards the sphere, so you have singularities at the top and bottom of the sphere. If you generate your sphere as a bunch of horizontal bands, each having equal angular size, and further subdivided around into equal patches, then you can your use loop variables (band / patch index) to compute UV coordinates. Just remember that UV are 0 to 1 (unless you want tiling). -- Kostya 27.12.2010 18:35, pedr0 пишет: But normal.x what is it? Is the abs(x) ?

I am stumped. InetAdress.isReachable simply does not work. By that I mean, it always returns false for an external host. I have tried searching the internet to see if anybody else is having the same problem, I have found a few people have had the same problem, but cannot really find an explanation why. I have tried this on multiple devices with the same result. boolean blnResult = InetAddress.getByName(localhost).isReachable(2); The above line of code works every time. If I change the localhost to an external host that I can verify isReachable, the result is always false. blnResult = InetAddress.getByName(www.google.com).isReachable(2); blnResult = InetAddress.getByName(4.2.2.2).isReachable(2); The above lines always return false, even though I can use a terminal emulator on the same device and get a true result.

The view ID is intended to be used inside the scope of an onClick() or some other onEvent() method. In that case, the onEvent method was set in the initialization for the widget, which will be unique to your widget. In other words, it's always one of your custom widgets.

Re: [android-developers] Android random time delayed user abortable infinite loop
Hello and thanks for the reply,
It's really the user abortable loop that I'm having trouble with now.
Since first posting my problem, I have been researching code snippets and
have zeroed in on this one:
import java.util.Timer;
import java.util.TimerTask;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class DelayTimer extends Activity {
TextView mTextField;
long elapsed;
final static long INTERVAL=1000;
final static long TIMEOUT=5000;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mTextField=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textview1);
TimerTask task=new TimerTask(){
@Override
public void run() {
elapsed += INTERVAL;
if(elapsed = TIMEOUT){
this.cancel();
displayText(finished);
return;
}
//if(some other conditions)
// this.cancel();
displayText(seconds elapsed: + elapsed / 1000);
}
};
Timer timer = new Timer();
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(task, INTERVAL, INTERVAL);
}
private void displayText(final String text){
this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable(){
@Override
public void run() {
mTextField.setText(text);
}});
}
}
I think I should be able to replace the static long INTERVAL with a call to
java.util.random
in a way that would work for me. However, I can't even get this example to
finish/abort/end properly.
After running this example, I have to go to Manage Apps and click Force
Close to kill it.
I'm not really sure if this is example is the best way to handle it either
but it is where I seem to be
zeroing in on. Any suggestions?
Thank you sooo much for your help,
Ron

Re: [android-developers] InetAdress bug or documentation ambiguity or some other explanation?
While I'm not necessarily more experienced with Android or perhaps a Google engineer It's kind of a weird call to begin with. On a mobile device (and not only) the network connection can go bad or completely disappear at any time. Even when this call properly works, it can't predict the future or make promises that it can keep. I'd recommend you check ConnectivityManager to see if it's even worth it to start a network conversation, then handle IOException in case the connection goes away or was bad to begin with. -- Kostya 27.12.2010 20:46, bc пишет: I am stumped.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Generating a unique widget ID
Well, things just aren't quite working that way. I had 2 instances of my custom view (subclass of RelativeLayout) on screen. Each of these did have a unique ID number. When the children of my view all used the same set of ID numbers (900,901,902 for the 3 children of the custom view), then when the main app code called a custom.setValue() method - which just passed the given string on to one of the children childTextView.setText() - it was updating the WRONG instances child. (which seemed really weird, since I had the TextView object reference directly from when I programmatically created it.) I modified the code so that every instance used a different set of child ID numbers, and this problem went away.

Re: [android-developers] Re: How to store date and time in database
It just all depends on the database. SQLite docs specifically says this: http://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html SQLite does not have a storage class set aside for storing dates and/or times. Instead, the built-in Date And Time Functions of SQLite are capable of storing dates and times as TEXT, REAL, or INTEGER values: Note that SQLite's date/text conversions use -MM-DD HH:MM:SS.SSS format and not the usual human readable locale-dependent format (except for some countries). This is for data portability and selection / sorting. Real SQL databases often have rich date / time data types. The database is then aware that a particular column represents a date and/or time value, and can have richer functionality (like date arithmetic, etc). But since this group is about Android development, the database in question is (typically) SQLite. -- Kostya 27.12.2010 21:29, Kristopher Micinski пишет: Yes, This is why I included a link to the original SQLite reference in the links I previously provided :-).

Re: [android-developers] Re: Generating a unique widget ID
It will return the first it finds during a depth-first traversal of the hierarchy. The framework uses framework ids -- 0x01nn. It is up to you to generate unique id integers (if you aren't using @id/blah) however you would like, if needed. There is no requirement for ids to be unique in a view hierarchy -- for example items in a list view are from the same view hierarchy with the same ids, and this is fine even if they use a relative layout.

[android-developers] Re: InetAdress bug or documentation ambiguity or some other explanation?
Thank you for the replies. Perhaps I should give a little background on this phenomena. A few years ago I created a free server monitor. The monitor has always had ping checks, port checks, and http(s) checks. I was doing ping checks via the isReachable method. I have never had issues with the isReachable method until recently. By recently I mean late last summer, I began getting more and more complaints from users that ping is not working. I usually gave the canned response to ping not working because the ping portion of the application had been stable and working for about a year and a half.

Re: [android-developers] Re: InetAdress bug or documentation ambiguity or some other explanation?
ICMP and Java have had a long and sordid history, IIRC. You might consider doing your own ping via the NDK. Personally, I would have the server monitor running on a server, and have the Android app only be a control panel/notification mechanism, but that's just me. On Mon, Dec 27, 2010 at 2:02 PM, bc clarkbrianc...@gmail.com wrote: Thank you for the replies. Perhaps I should give a little background on this phenomena. A few years ago I created a free server monitor. The monitor has always had ping checks, port checks, and http(s) checks. I was doing ping checks via the isReachable method. I have never had issues with the isReachable method until recently. By recently I mean late last summer, I began getting more and more complaints from users that ping is not working. I usually gave the canned response to ping not working because the ping portion of the application had been stable and working for about a year and a half.

More than likely you're seeing something where a vendor (i.e. manufacturer or carrier) wanted that behaviour, and passed through click handling events from the expanded notification tray to the underlying notification, and thus its widgets.

Slow maybe. Correct definitely. :) I don't use the emulator for day to day development, but I still run sanity checks against it for correctness to ensure my app runs on as many platforms as possible. The only time I've been bitten by this is when vendor customisations totally deviate from standard Android platform APIs, such as Motorola with its very broken Motoblur Contacts API behaviour. cheers, steve Manoj Maurya mailto:manojk.mau...@gmail.com December 27, 2010 11:31 AM Thanks for replying.

Re: [android-developers] Re: RemoteViews notification is not being displayed in notification window??
HTC is well known for heavily customizing Android for their phones. 27.12.2010 22:41, Manoj Maurya ?: I appreciate your observation. Just to mention, it works on my HTC HD2 WITH froyo 2.2 build but not on mytouch and g2, tested so far. Thanks Manoj Kumar Maurya More than likely you're seeing something where a vendor (i.e. manufacturer or carrier) wanted that behaviour, and passed through click handling events from the expanded notification tray to the underlying notification, and thus its widgets. As Dianne mentioned, this isn't part of the standard Android platform behaviour.. which is probably why your buttons/widgets inside of the notification aren't getting the click event propagated to them. cheers, steve Manoj Maurya mailto:manojk.mau...@gmail.com mailto:manojk.mau...@gmail.com December 27, 2010 11:08 AM I understand that but custom expanded view is part of standard platform. What I fail to understand is that how it can be device dependant if OS is same? I am not getting any exception or error. Simply, click on buttons in side notifications is not working on few devices. It might be resolution dependant, just a guess. Thanks Manoj Kumar Maurya -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Now, when I install this program on my HTC HD2 with Android 2.2, click on button on notification does the intended action but when I install same program on mytouch 3g with Android 2.2.1, it doesn't work i.e. click on notification works but not on individual buttons. Could you solve the issue? One thing to notice is that, on mytouch 3g,I see a small area on right side of my custom layout in notification, which is extra i.e. this small area is not getting covered by by the custom layout of the notification. and that is the area which gets highlighted when i click the button or anywhere on the notification.

[android-developers] how to create irregular polygon and handle events within its boundary
How can we create polygons with shapes other than the normal regular rectangle/circle etc? I need to create a image with boundaries and let users click within the image. Then I need to highlight the image. I also need to highlight the image only when the user clicks within the boundaries of the shape. How can I do this in android?

[android-developers] Re: how to create irregular polygon and handle events within its boundary
OK, so how hard was it to google android polygon? hmm its harder than just assuming that I did not do the same. I have been looking around for that since a couple of days. May be I am searching with the wrong terms. Still thank you for the reply. The results does not pull up what I am looking for. But your suggestion did show me something helpful I can use later. [ie to detect if a point lies inside a polygon] No I do not have a Vertices list. I have an image that has the shape. It is a human body with parts[head, arms, legs etc]. That is why I was looking for some hint of where I might have to start looking. I need to somehow convert this into a vertices list or was actually wondering if android has any builtin classes that I can take advantage of. Thanks.

[android-developers] Re: layout editor in 2.3 SDK sucks! Sorry but it does.
Preview 2 is much improved - being able to drag views up and down the list (and into child layouts) is great, no need for the up/down button now. Again, can still use some work, but it's getting back to the point where I am comfortable using drag and drop, but able to do things manually now. Here's some frustrating things I would like to get see fixed, which may relate to the tools or integration with Ecliipse: * Refactoring If I rename something, all references to it should be updated * Other Properties in the right-click menu I could take off the stinking property window completely, if all custom properties (like references or resources) could be picked from here - this is already done for things like layout_width (Other...) - resource references/properties could be done the same way, (Select Resource..) * Property state If you move from one view to the other, you get pushed back to the top of the property window. Especially if I am editing a property that every one of the views I click on has, this should not happen... my property window should stay focused on the same property for the new view. It does this *some* times, but the times it doesn't is frustrating * Resource Chooser (for String Properties) Very frustrating when you have any more than about 100+ strings, say using them for tags, and you need to select one from this - it loads the list of resources and resets back to the top of the list - every time. You can either try to scroll down the list and quickly click your item, or wait for the whole list to load, reset to the top, then scroll down to your item - this is a lot of wasted time. I could just manually type the string (@string/whatever), but I'd prefer to pick from a (quicker) list. * Simultaneous Viewing of MultiRes Layouts I'd really like to see a way to view multiple layouts simultaneously (i.e. compare my HVGA and WVGA side by side) * Merging Layout Changes Even more, I'd like to see a way to make it much easier to work with multi-res layouts. Currently, if I add a view to one layout, I have to add it to all layouts that it will apply to. For example: I have customized version of: res/layout/main.xml res/layout-land/main.xml res/layout-large/main.xml res/layout-ldpi/main.xml If I want to add a view, assuming it would be added to all layouts, I have to either add it once for each version of my view, and set all the properties each time - or (try to) copy and paste it to each layout, although copy and paste needs a lot of improvements still. * Deprecated/Newer Feature Warnings As developers, we want to make things compatible for as long as possible, so it would be helpful if the tools pointed out if we are using things that may not work prior to x.x - such as new properties that are added/removed/etc. We do get warnings for deprecated properties (in the property window), but that is about it. There's the top of my wishlist.. I wish I was more experienced and had time to help with creating and fixing the tools.. but I'd rather be using them and building better applications, then trying to help improve them. I recommend others that want to see the Tools improved use the links provided: * Bug Report http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/entry?template=Tools%20bug%20report *Feature Request http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/entry?template=Tools%20feature%20request Thanks again for all the work you put into these things... -Tim On Dec 27, 4:16 pm, fala70 fal...@gmail.com wrote: I hope soon, this version is very unusable.
