That might work, except for one thing:  it was a direct reply to my post,
not one that just happened to include my post  :-)

Replies don't quote the entire coversation...they only quote the previous
post (which, we can assume, was edited, like any other, to quote only the
spefic bits that are being replied to.

Not with any e-mail client I've ever used...when you go into the editor
for your reply, you start at the top (headers) and move down to trim the
quoted text and add your reply.

But then, at this point, we're getting WAY off-topic here...and I'm about
to go to bed for a few hours of sleep, so

[android-developers] Getting Blank page in WebView

[Pawan]

Hi,

I am trying open twitter link : http://mobile.twitter.com/pawan_rathore88 
in my activity. 
If I set WebViewClient to webview I am getting blank page.
But when I load url without setting any webviewclient, it loads page 
properly. 
Does anyone have an idea what can be a problem. 
Following is my code snippet.

webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
//if I comment the following line then webpage loads properly in default 
Android browser.
webview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
   public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode, String 
description, String failingUrl) {
 Toast.makeText(activity, "Oh no! " + description, 
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
   }
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {

Log.v(tag, "url :" + url);
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
 });
webview.loadUrl("http://mobile.twitter.com/pawan_rathore88";);

Thanks,
Pawan

I suspect that what happened was that he was using GMail and read a
previous thread in the conversation to which he was replying, and
*then* pushed reply, which automatically quotes the entire
conversation and dumps you at the end of it, I occasionally do this
and have to correct for it.

I bet it doesn't come with a render() mehod ;) This code is really just a 
proof of concept to get the GL bits working, then I move on to more 
complicated objects.

Good to know. I'll eventually switch to a scene-graph of sorts, so the 
allocation in the render method will go away.

[IndianDragon]

Thanks for your reply, but onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() was not
helpful for my situation and a Fragement/Webview solution seemed
better. So Iam working on a Fragment based webview for my issue.

Ummm, think about what you just wrote.  Now open your eyes so you can
actually read it, and look at it again.

Now look at the post you're responding to (mine).  Try READING it.

Now, here's my question for you:  are you on crack or something?  If he
writes HIS OWN MUSIC, how do you get the insane idea that it'd be illegal
for him to use it?  Of course, he could always ask himself for permission
to use parts of his own "original [composition]" .  :-)

Geez, I never knew copyright law prevents you from using YOUR OWN STUFF!

[android-developers] Re: Android webview retain form data when orientation changes

[IndianDragon]

Thanks for the reply.

Actually Iam using fragment now for webview like you said.
But I call the Fragment/webview class from Oncreate() in an Activity
which extends FragmentActivity, which basically makes the purpose of
me using fragment useless as when orientation changes the the
Oncreate() restarts again creating new instance of Fragment/webview .

Iam using setRetainInstance(true) in the Fragment/Webview .

How can I make sure that, the webiview/Fragment does not get recreated
even when it's call from Oncreate() in the Activity is recreated
everytime when Orientation changes ?

Should I be using a onSaveInstanceState() and restorestate() in the
Fragment/webview class ?

[android-developers] Re: Rendering Problem with GLSurfaceView

[Alexander Mikhnin]

Check this tutorial
http://developer.android.com/intl/zh-CN/resources/tutorials/opengl/opengl-es10.html

In addition there is class RectF. And it is a bad idea to allocate
objects in render method.
Do you have calls to GLSurfaceView.onPause and GLSurfaceView.onResume
in your Activty's onPause and onResume?

Re: [android-developers] Re: Restrict opening Settings application

[Kristopher Micinski]

You're talking about the fact that you don't want the user to reset
your app from the settings app on the phone right?

If this is the case then, no, you can't change the behavior of that
app, so you'll just need to either get over it, or design your app to
recover from the situations when its data has been erased.

Re: [android-developers] override home key

[Kristopher Micinski]

That doesn't make sense...

Every time the the user presses the home key you want to think you're
in "emergency mode?"

(By the way, you know that phones, at least in the US, do this already
when you dial 911, I believe..)

[android-developers] Rendering Problem with GLSurfaceView

[Thomas Fjellstrom]

I've started on a little toy app to get familiar with working with OpenGL 
and Android, and I can't seem to get anything to display (other than the 
initial screen clear).

I've pasted the relevant code here: http://pastebin.com/SpLJBfJ8

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Re: [android-developers] Restrict opening Settings application

[Kristopher Micinski]

If you want them from accessing the "Settings" app on their phone, the
one that allows them to uninstall your app, etc..,

You can't do this.., this would be a security hole.  In general, you
can't "block" other apps, or interfere with the user experience in
apps you don't write.

Even if it makes sense for your app, imagine some stupid app which
kills your device, opens up tons of threads, etc.., you want to shut
it down / clear the data / uninstall it, but the app stops you from
doing so... bad thing, right :-)...

kris

P.s., if the user knows enough to find how to clear your apps data,
the probability they're doing it "by accident" is almost zero...

[android-developers] Decryption Bad Padding Exception

[chander]

Hi all,

I have written a File Encryption application for android, i am using
AES 256 bit encryption, encryption process is working good, but while
decrypting the files program giving exception as

javax.crypto.BadPaddingException  : Pad block corrupted.
i am not able to understand why this exception is coming, even on
internet no proper explanation is given why this exception comes and
how to solve this problem?
please help me, i am giving my decryption code please check if i am
doing something wrong..

Decryption Process Code:

public void decrypt(ArrayList  decList, String pass)
{
long total = totalSpaceDecrypt(decList);

// Decryption Code goes here
try
{
System.out.println("Total size of ArrayList: " +total + 
"Bytes");
for(File f: decList)
{
FileOutputStream fout;
OutputStream out;
InputStream in;

file = new File(f.getAbsolutePath());   // 
/mnt/sdcard/abc.txt

abpath = file.getAbsolutePath();
String dir = abpath.substring(0, 
abpath.lastIndexOf("/"));  // /mnt/
sdcard
System.out.println("Current Directory:" +dir);
String name = file.getName();   
// abc.txt
System.out.println("File name is :" +name);
String name1 = name.substring(0, 
name.lastIndexOf("."));// abc
System.out.println("File name is :" + name1);   
//abc

filetemp = new File(dir + "/" + name1 +".tmp"); 
// /mnt/sdcard/
abc.tmp

// Creating a PBE Key Specification
// Providing the passphrase,salt,iteration 
count and key length
kspec = new 
PBEKeySpec(pass.toCharArray(),salt,iterations,keylen);

// Locate a PBE Secret Key Factory
factory = 
SecretKeyFactory.getInstance("PBEWITHSHAAND256BITAES-CBC-
BC");

// Generate the secret key from the PBEKeySpec
key = factory.generateSecret(kspec);

// Locating a PBE Cipher
cipher = 
Cipher.getInstance("AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding");

// Initializing the cipher for encryption
cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key);

in = new FileInputStream(file); 
// /mnt/sdcard/abc.txt
fout = new FileOutputStream(filetemp);  // 
/mnt/sdcard/abc.tmp
out = new CipherOutputStream(fout,cipher);

int num = 0;

while((num = in.read(buffer)) >= 0)
{

byte[] decode = cipher.doFinal(buffer);
out.write(decode,0,num);

}

filetemp.renameTo(file);
in.close();
out.close();
fout.close();

}

}

Re: [android-developers] override home key

[Kumar Bibek]

I am not sure about this, but I think it would work for you.

When you press the Home button, there would be an Intent fired system-wide.
So, you could write a receiver that tracks these particular kind of intent.

Now, in the receiver, you could monitor the frequency of these intents. IF
you could detect that the frequency is the same as you would want your app
to be triggered, you can very well start a service or activity, or whatever.

Re: [android-developers] override home key

There would always be a few things which you cannot do.

I don't understand how does this "No" affect the popularity of Android.

Their could be other ways to solve your problem, that is, if you could
mention exactly what you are trying to do.

In general, you should pretend like the "home" key doesn't exist.
Think of it as being a meta key, you don't use it to interact with
your app, the user uses it with their phone, and the platform dictates
how it behaves.

Typically people who want to do things they shouldn't lack a
fundamental understanding of the android way of doing things.  The
model is heavily sandboxed, you don't get full access to the entire
platform as you can on a windows machine, it just doesn't work like
that.  The *default* is to give you a restricted set of options, and
then you can request access to more options..

But in this case, you just shouldn't act like the home key is there..
In general being able to mess around with the home key would be
considered a violation.

Re: [android-developers] override home key

[Kumar Bibek]

You cannot override, but you can make your app as one of the home
applications. In that case, whenever you press the home key, you will get
an option to choose one of the many home applications, one of which could
be yours.

Few times ? No.

[android-developers] Re: deprecated method warnings (ConnectivityManager.getBackgroundDataSetting)

[Brian Dols]

I know, but I want to see warnings for other methods that are
deprecated so that I am aware of functionality that is broken or
discouraged in releases like ICS. It's an intensive process to go thru
every API call and find deprecated methods..
My app would have been always sending data in the background
regardless of whether it was allowed, apparently.

[android-developers] Re: Supporting Galaxy Note Issues Due To It Displaying Itself as a LARGE screen layout.

[jtoolsdev]

I have a similar problem with one of my apps where I created a special 
version (same app different APK) for 10" Honeycomb tablets.  If a 7" 
Honeycomb tablet (1024x600) tries to run the app the screen will get 
cropped and if a 7" tablet with 1280x720 runs it the widgets will be 
difficult to use.   The layout for small, normal and large will work fine 
on 7" screens even with 1280x720 resolution.  So there needs to be a way to 
handle an overlap.  I agree this was all not thought out very well.

[android-developers] Http post and get

[n3d!m]

My application connects to website which requires username and password. 
After POST is done http GET cannot access next page after login.
After searching for solution I cam e to conclusion I need to send cookie 
with http POST.
Tried this 

DefaultHttpClient mHttpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
BasicHttpContext mHttpContext = new BasicHttpContext();
CookieStore mCookieStore  = new BasicCookieStore();
mHttpContext.setAttribute(ClientContext.COOKIE_STORE, mCookieStore);

HttpResponse response = mHttpClient.execute(mRequest, mHttpContext);

But it doesnt work.
Other examples shows usage of
httpclient.getCookieStore().getCookies();

My problem is there is no method getCookieStore in http client.

[android-developers] deprecated method warnings (ConnectivityManager.getBackgroundDataSetting)

[Brian Dols]

I am having the same problem as detailed in this post:
http://stackoverflow.com/q/8430253/395195

Except for me, I was expecting a deprecation warning for
ConnectivityManager.getBackgroundDataSetting().

I have my Ecilpse settings for Java->Compiler->Error/Warnings-
>Deprecated and restricted API set to Error and not seeing any mention
of this.
My project is building with 4.0.3 and if I F3 into the source code, I
see the proper @Deprecated annotation.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

[android-developers] What is The Google Music App doing that the Netflix app is not?

[milind]

I have always experienced lag on all Android phones I have used -
right from the G1.  Dainne Hackborn's blogs recently suggested that
it's the app not Android.  Normally, I would have attributed it to
spin, but the Google Music app actually makes me believe that may
indeed be possible.

The Recent Tab in landscape mode is nothing short of amazing.  In
Portrait mode, it's a list view which is notoriously bad in almost
every app I have used including the contacts app.  You start scrolling
and it starts stuttering and pausing.  But even in the songs list view
with over 2000 songs, there is no stuttering in the Music app.  There
is still lag.  If you drag the scrollbar on the right and move it uo
and down, you can see the scrollbar chasing your finger.  But if you
look at the list, it's silky smooth.

In contrast, the Netflix app is extremely laggy.  And I'm not
referring to video playback.  That's a different issue.  I'm referring
to standard screens like the Browsing screen.  Both the horizontal and
vertical scrolling in the app is awful.  And I'm running it on the
Transformer Prime running ICS 4.0.3!

It would be nice if someone from Google, especially from the Google
Music team, were to write a blog post on how it achieved such great
performance so the rest of us can emulate that in our code.

No, that won't get you out of the call chain that exists when your
onDoubleTap is called:

https://github.com/android/platform_frameworks_base/blob/master/core/java/android/view/GestureDetector.java#L488

There is code in GestureDetector's onTouchEvent after the call to
onDoubleTap, and replacing the event's action will do nothing to skip it.
The switch at line 468 won't go back to be re-evaluated, etc.



>

>

To return from your onDoubleTap listener to the gesture detector's
onTouchEvent, let it execute the rest of its code, and only then send the
cancel event to reset its state.

That's pretty similar to what I was suggesting, and also unwinds the call
chain from the double-tap listener call.

Perhaps the framework sends a cancel event in this case -- or perhaps your
letting go after the double tap has time to register.

I'd do a test to find out, keeping the finger down after the double-tap's
second touch.

If the gesture detector still works Ok after returning back to this
activity (like your original email mentioned), good.

If it doesn't, it would mean that you were just getting lucky with the
timing of the second up event, and that sending a cancel is still necessary.

Hope this makes sense.

Kostya,

do you mean that in onDoubleTap (MotionEvent e) listener I should
modify "e" by:

e.setAction(MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL)

and then "feed" gesture detector with that modified event?

but if it cancels internal state of detector why to use a Handler?

btw I already tried in  onDoubleTap to post Runnable that starts
activity and it worked well but I decided it's dirty workaround -
that's why I used onDoubleTapEvent

The app was on the screen, and then, while it was being reinstalled after a
source change, I briefly saw the "app stopped unexpectedly" dialog flash on
the screen, and the above appeared in the logcat.

Occasionally my Market console or users report weird errors which go away
after reinstalling the same .apk, and I remember others sharing similar
experiences on this list as well.

The exception above may be related - it seems that Andorid tried to do
something with the application while the .apk was being installed.

I've never seen this before, but thread race bugs -- if that's what's
behind this -- happen much more frequently on multicore hardware. They can
still happen on single-core systems, although less frequently - which may
explain corrupted applications when you get above a certain number of
installations.

This is the line that crashed:

https://github.com/android/platform_frameworks_base/blob/master/core/java/android/app/LoadedApk.java#L362

... implying that pm.getPackageInfo() for the application's package
returned null.

Anyone else seen this?

Any thoughts on investigating this further?

Thanks,

Re: [android-developers] why is onDoubleTap being called before second tup's up action?

[Kostya Vasilyev]

Have you tried using MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL in the double-tap listener?

GestureDetector has code to reset its internal state in response to this:

https://github.com/android/platform_frameworks_base/blob/master/core/java/android/view/GestureDetector.java#L594

I'm thinking you'd need post a handler message to self to get out of the
current stack state when onDoubleTap is called, and then in response to
that message, use ACTION_CANCEL to reset the gesture listener and then
start the activity.

It does as of API level 12 (Android 3.2.) I would recommend you switch
to using hardware AA lines if possible (all devices that shipped with
API level 11 should have now be upgraded to 12.) Make sure to use
drawLines() as well to batch the geometry.

Since you are doing your own buffering I would recommend you keep
track of the dirty region yourself. Note that you could instead set
your View's layer type to be LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE. If you do so, the
View will be drawn into a Bitmap for you *and* the clip rect in
onDraw() will be the same as when you call invalidate(Rect).

Note however that the rendering engine will have to upload the entire
bitmap as a texture which can be expensive.

[android-developers] Re: Newbie question about Content Provider

[Lester Quintero]

Hi,

It's a Content Provider that use SQLite Database.

I want pass data of one table to another with  Insert-Select sintax
and/or check that data not exist in second table.

I Found that SQLite permit sintax:

Insert into Table(t1, t2)
Select tx, ty
>From Table  --To insert select from one table to another

OR

Insert into Table(t1, t2)
Select tx, ty  WHERE NOT EXISTS ... --To Check if data exist or not

I thought that through the Content Provider could emulate this syntax

thanks.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Partial invalidation in custom Android view with hardware acceleration

[Andrew Hughes]

Ah. Okay. I understand this more and more every time I read a post by you
or re-watch the Android Accelerated Rending talk from last year's I/O.

So what if I'm drawing a Bitmap to the Canvas in that View's onDraw, rather
than making canvas drawing calls?

The reason for this is one of the things I'm drawing in the View are lines
(potentially lots of them), and hardware acceleration does not support AA
for drawing lines. So, I draw everything to a Bitmap cache and simply
update a section of the Bitmap cache when the View's data is updated, then
I call invalidate(Rect) hoping to only update the View's Canvas with that
portion of the Bitmap cache that was updated. But I end up redrawing the
entire Canvas every time. This ends up being a lot slower than doing the
same technique without hardware acceleration enabled.

Is there a way I can use hardware acceleration so I can take advantage of
the rendering framework and not have overlapping or parent/child View's
invalidated as well, while still only invalidating and updating part of my
View using a Bitmap cache?

(Please let me know if there's still something I'm not understanding
correctly).

Thanks,
Andrew

onDraw() will get called but you won't get the Rect you've provided in
invalidate(Rect). What will happen however is that the rendering
pipeline will only execute the drawing instructions that intersect
with the Rect you've supplied with your invalidate call. When onDraw()
is executed, your drawing calls are only recorded for later use. At
playback time they can be ignored.

There is no such concept as "blank Canvas." The clip will indeed be
set to be the entire View (to properly rebuild its display list.)

Re: [android-developers] Re: Partial invalidation in custom Android view with hardware acceleration

[Andrew Hughes]

Sorry, I'm not following what you are saying.

I would expect (though my expectation could very well be wrong :P) that
when I call invalidate(Rect) on a hardware accelerated View, that onDraw()
would get called on that view with the Canvas clip set to the Rect provided
in invalidate(Rect) and that only that portion of the Canvas would need to
be updated.

What I am experiencing is that I call invalidate(Rect) on a hardware
accelerated View and that onDraw() is called with a Canvas containing no
clip and the Canvas is blank, so I need to redraw the entire Canvas.

Is there something I am misunderstanding?

Thanks,
Andrew

Re: [android-developers] Re: Partial invalidation in custom Android view with hardware acceleration

invalidate(Rect) works just fine with hardware acceleration. What it
does not do (and what it was never documented to do) is force parents
of the invalidated View to re-executed their draw() method.

[android-developers] Re: Partial invalidation in custom Android view with hardware acceleration

[ashughes]

Matt,

I just posted a comment on your post at stackoverflow (
http://stackoverflow.com/q/7233830/287575) about this (unfortunately not 
with the answer).

I was wondering if you or anyone else has figured out the answer to your 
question?

I have been unable to find any information from the Android team or 
anywhere else describing why invalidate(Rect) does not work with HW 
acceleration. If it just inherently won't work because of how HW 
acceleration is implemented, it would be nice to know why. If it will work, 
it would be really helpful to know how to do it!

Because of this, my current application actually performs better without HW 
acceleration than with HW acceleration because I don't have to redraw the 
screen every time. However, enabling HW acceleration prevents child and 
overlapping views from being invalidated who haven't changed because of the 
new DisplayList drawing framework. I would really like to benefit from both 
not having to redraw things that haven't changed (via DisplayList by 
enabling HW accel) and be able to only redraw parts of things that have 
changed (via invalidate(Rect)).

Thanks,
Andrew

[android-developers] Adding custom enum states to an ImageButton

[Nick]

I have searched around and I found good examples on adding custom
boolean states to a drawable but I am having issues adding a state
that is a list of enums.  I am sure most of my problems lie within the
onCreateDrawableState call so I have a few questions.

1) Is the extraSpace param to onCreateDrawableState the number of
additional int[] that I would like to add or the size of the int[]? So
since I am just adding MODE I should just be increasing extraSpace by
1 and not by MODE.length?
2) I don't quite understand the mergeDrawableStates method.  If I put
it in an IF statement I am getting what I expect, but I think I am
just getting lucky.  I don't feel my IF check is correct.  My initial
assumption was that I don't do a check and always call
mergeDrawableStates but then the drawable never changes.  I have seen
where if the extra state is a boolean then the if statement checks for
that.  I don't quite know what to do about an enum.
3) When I do get it working, my ic_button_a is drawn correctly.
However every time when ic_button_c is getting drawn, ic_button_c is
resized and stretch to fit the View which includes a background
graphic that is larger than ic_button_c.  ic_button_a and ic_button_a
are the same size.

I have my custom view:


which extends ImageButton.:
public class CustomView extends ImageButton {

private static final int[] MODE = {R.attr.mode};
private int mMode = 1;

@Override
public int[] onCreateDrawableState(int extraSpace) {
final int[] drawableState =
super.onCreateDrawableState(extraSpace + 1);
if (mMode != 0) {
mergeDrawableStates(drawableState, MODE);
}
return drawableState;
}

public void setMode(int mode) {
mMode = mode;
refreshDrawableState();
}
}

I am defining my modes here:















My @drawable/ic_button is:
http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.pkg";>

Re: [android-developers] How to iterate Class

[Kostya Vasilyev]

If you really wanted to use a for-each loop, you could do it like this
(among other ways):

for (int value : Arrays.asList(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)) {
 }

Substituting the actual values for the 1, 2, 3...

Beats me, based on the descriptions in this thread. If you create a
sample project that demonstrates the issue, post it somewhere and I'll
take a peek at it. Or, if you try creating a sample project and can't
reproduce the problem, that'll help you narrow down where the
differences between the two projects are.

Unfortunately, I don't have a ListFragment-with-context-menu sample in
my stable, otherwise I'd point you to it.

Re: [android-developers] FragmentTransaction commitAllowingStateLoss problem

[Nick Parker]

Hi Mark, 

I am invoking the context menu selection from the ListFragment, which is the 
first fragment, not the new'ed up fragment.  On the selection of the menu item 
from the context menu I want to perform the fragment transaction, which is 
failing following the screen rotation.  Any ideas why the call to getActivity() 
would fail at that point, the lifecycle should have completed at that point, 
correct?  Thanks.

Re: [android-developers] projects ideas for degree project

[Kristopher Micinski]

This question is pretty broad, and probably not that appropriate for
this forum.  It's somewhat akin to someone asking: "what app should I
write next."  This list is mostly for technical aspects of the Android
SDK.

That being said, since you posted here, it's understandable that you
probably want topics that influence the Android ecosystem.  This can
be a huge range of things, and you don't really specify.  What kind of
a student are you?  What year are you?  What is your degree in?  What
level of programming experience do you have?  Remember that education
systems differ vastly across countries, so you'll have to be specific.
 Along with that, you'd probably want to include some rough
approximation of the expectations set forth for your project (is it
supposed to be a super intensive program designed to run for six
months and test a culmination of your programming abilities and
engineering, for example?)

Along with that, if you're developing, you might want to pick a topic
based on what you've studied before, there are lots of *hot* fields
these days.  You might be in any of:
  security -- study security in Android apps and what the permissions
model does well and badly, compare and contrast with apple and windows
  HCI -- study user interfaces in apps, and how they can be made better?
  PLDI -- study how vm perf has changed over the years and how the jit
on dalvik works
  Graphics -- a graphics engine for android apps, or a demonstration
of the capabilities of the rendering and differences between devices,
perhaps..

these are obviously just rough starting points, you'll have to choose
for yourself..

On which fragment is getActivity() returning null? The ListFragment(?)
on which you have the context menu, or the newly instantiated one? If
it's the newly-instantiated one, that's not especially surprising, as
it will not go through any of its lifecycle methods until the
FragmentTransaction gets commit()'d and processing begins on it
shortly thereafter.

[android-developers] Re: Newbie question about Content Provider

[A. Elk]

Are you talking about a content provider or an SQLite database? They aren't 
equivalent. A content provider *may* use an SQLite database as its database 
repository, but it doesn't have to, and you can't assume that it does.

*If it's a content provider:*

You can do an insert followed by a query. Generally, it has to be done in 
two separate method calls:

ContentResolver.insert();
ContentResolver.query();

One row can be inserted per insert().

You can also do a "transaction" using ContentProviderOperation objects and 
then ContentResolver.applyBatch();

*If it's an SQLite database:*

You can do anything you can do in SQLite itself, using the classes in 
android.database.SQLite. Remember, though, that in general you *can't* use 
SQLite classes against a content provider (in general).

*In addition:*
*
*
If this doesn't answer your question, you might try to explain your use 
case rather than simply asking if SQLite operations translate to Android.

If you tried that already, comment out everything and comment stuff back in
one thing at a time until you determine what causes the issue.

Re: [android-developers] FragmentTransaction commitAllowingStateLoss problem

[Nick Parker]

Hi Mark, 

I am using setRetainInstance(true) with all of the Fragments.  I am actually 
new'ing up the detail fragment on the invocation of the onContextItemSelected() 
so there is no old reference hanging around.  After looking a bit further, I am 
starting to wonder if it has something to do with the context menu.  I am able 
to perform a separate Fragment Transaction replace operation during screen 
rotations triggered from the onListItemClick without issue.  Following screen 
rotation, I logged the getActivity() call in onCreateContextMenu which is still 
valid, but the onContextItemSelected shows getActivity() returning null.  Any 
thoughts as to why that might be?  Thanks.

I am suggesting that wherever you were calling getActivity(), and it
was returning null, was too early in the fragment lifecycle. Solving
that would eliminate your need to hold onto the Activity separately
yourself, and it might clear up other problems that you are
encountering.

Where are you getting the Fragment from that you are passing to
replace()? If it not one that you instantiated just now, it may be
that you are trying use a fragment that has been destroyed due to the
configuration change.

BTW, are you using setRetainInstance(true) with your fragments? If
not, bear in mind that the fragments are destroyed and recreated
during the configuration change, when the activity is destroyed and
recreated.

Re: [android-developers] Re: NFC Secure Element

[Michael Roland]

Hallo Saurabh,

> You mean page 12 , section *5.3 Reading Binary Block*.
I didn't find any "section *5.3 Reading Binary Block*" on that page. In
fact, I mean have you tried the whole command sequence described for
"Card Access -- How to access MIFARE Classic Tags?" on that page.

You have to do the polling using these commands to access the card. The
standard PC/SC commands will not work.

I just looked through my code and found that I also explicitly disabled
ISO 14443-4 activation (before polling) using this command:
  FF0003D41224

> Can you tell me the name of card reader where we cant see
> this behavior (reader automatically performed protocol selection up to

The ACR 122U was the only reader with which I successfully accessed the
MIFARE area of the SmartMX so far.

Michael

[android-developers] Sending mail through GMail (again...)

[Kookamonga]

I want to be able to send mail using GMail without user intervention
in my app. I was able to do this using the Google example here:

http://code.google.com/p/google-mail-xoauth-tools/wiki/JavaSampleCode

Note, though, that that sample code uses a Python script (xoauth.py)
to obtain the oauth_token and oauth_token_secret parameters in order
to be able to connect to the GMail servers. This involves running the
script, obtaining a verification URL which you then have to visit to
grant access to your "app", then supplying the script with the
verification code returned by Google and finally obtaining the
oauth_token and oauth_token_secret values. Of course, I want to be
able to do this in my app.

In Android, one can obtain some sort of an authToken using
AccountManager.getAuthToken(). Following this link:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6649388/android-accountmanager-authtoken-and-oauth,
I have tried using that authTokenType value, but I never get an
auth_token_secret value back... After TONS of reading/searching, I
think the problem here is that the AccountManager method is returning
a ClientLogin authToken, whereas the sample implementation (first link
I gave) requires XOAuth tokens. So finally, the question: is there any
way to get from the ClientLogin token returned by the
AccountManager.getAuthToken(...) method to the XOAuth tokens used by
the sample app?

This (http://groups.google.com/group/google-accounts-api/browse_thread/
thread/df3a6382a01d73ab) claims that it is a matter of using an
appropriate URL. I have not been able to get this to work.

This (http://blog.doityourselfandroid.com/2010/11/10/oauth-flow-in-
android-app/) explains how to get the OAuth tokens as part of your
Android app... But the whole point of me wanting to use AccountManager
is so that users of my app don't have to enter their password into the
app...

This (http://code.google.com/p/google-api-java-client/source/browse/
tasks-android-sample/src/main/java/com/google/api/services/samples/
tasks/android/TasksSample.java?repo=samples) shows how to use the
AccountManager.getAuthToken(...) token to access a different Google
API (Tasks). But again, I'm using the *Google provided* sample for
Mail... And that seems to require something other than the ClientLogin
credentials returned by AccountManager.

I realize this is sort of a long, involved question. But after lots of
looking, I'm hoping someone can help.

Thanks.

Re: [android-developers] FragmentTransaction commitAllowingStateLoss problem

[Nick Parker]

Hi Mark, 

I am not exactly sure what you are suggesting.  I do call 
registerForContextMenu inside the onActivityCreated() method and super, but 
nothing else.  Are you suggesting I do something there?  The invocation of the 
to perform the FragmentTransaction replace occurs from the 
onContextItemSelected.  The view has already redrawn itself well before I 
attempt to trigger the context menu following the screen rotation, but the 
commitAllowingStateLoss() still fails.  I'm open to suggestions.  Thanks.

Re: [android-developers] Net Work slow

[Kristopher Micinski]

Additionally, if you're doing network communication from the main
thread you should see an exception..

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6343166/android-os-networkonmainthreadexception

In general if you're doing any socket communication over a UI thread,
you've made a mistake.  The right way to handle this is with a
background thread (or perhaps AsyncTask, or even using a Service) and
set up a Messenger / Handler between them.

Then you were doing the work in too early of a lifecycle method, most
likely. Try sliding to a slightly later one (e.g.,
onActivityCreated()).

Re: [android-developers] How to iterate Class

[Kristopher Micinski]

What do you mean, how?  You just pick the constants out of the class,
one by one.

int a = MediaRecorder.AudioSource.CAMCORDER;
int b = ...
...

This is a very simple question, you might want to read up on Java
quite a bit more if you wanted to use an array and for to get these
values..

[android-developers] Re: Forcing an item in a GridView to remain highlighted after clicking

[rperi...@yahoo.com]

Okay thanks I will look into what you suggest. I did try the
setEnabled() method as well as setSelected() method among other things
and they all had no effect. I assumed the item would assume the
default behaviour in terms of selected color. But I will try
explicitly specifying that and see if it works.

This makes sense, I understand the issue with calling commit, I have not

I was initially just calling getActivity() from the ListFragment, however that 
was returning null.  When I captured the Activity in the onAttach method I ran 
into the issue during the commitAllowingStateLoss().

I was just following the stack trace and using JD-GUI to look at the code.  
More of the stack trace looks like this:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Activity has been destroyed
at 
android.support.v4.app.FragmentManagerImpl.enqueueAction(FragmentManager.java:1314)
at 
android.support.v4.app.BackStackRecord.commitInternal(BackStackRecord.java:541)
at 
android.support.v4.app.BackStackRecord.commitAllowingStateLoss(BackStackRecord.java:529)


JD-GUI shows inside the enqueueAction method an IllegalStateException is thrown 
when the Activity is null.  Do you have any suggestions to get around this.  
I'd really just like to be able to perform replace operations on a 
FragmentTransaction following screen rotations.  Thanks again.

Re: [android-developers] remove logs after market

[Kristopher Micinski]

I agree with TreKing:  it's very bad practice to leave your verbose
logging in after development.  It it still perhaps necessary to leave
some logs in, but most of the chatty ones should be stripped from your
app, as they'll be really annoying to other people, and just get in
the way (and it's just unprofessional).  Point #1 can be solved if you
write a utility class in your app like Logger, that does the same
thing as Log, but you can then throw out the appropriate methods in
production.  Point #2 has been solved (at least in theory) by
information flow analysis, but I don't think there's a large scale
production version of this.  Point 3 can (if you find it annoying) be
solved by doing a "logcat | grep com.myapp" or something similar,
though maybe that won't quite work for everything you need.

[android-developers] Creating a context menu similar to gmail app.

[tatebn]

I need to create a context menu similar to the menu that pops up in
the gmail app.  I need this menu to show up when I select text in a
web view.  I found this tutorial on quick action bars,
http://www.londatiga.net/it/how-to-create-quickaction-dialog-in-android/
and it looks straight forward enough to build them.  But I don't know
how to tie in to the text selection of a web view.

Basically when a user selects text in a web view I need to build a
quick action menu on the fly based on the text they selected.  Is
there an event for that I can listen for?

Oggetto: Re: [android-developers] How to iterate Class

Still doesn't make any sense...  You know the elements you want out of the
class, so just get them, don't write it in some strange hacky way just to
use a for, if you want the values, this has nothing to do with an adapter.

(Theoretically you could use reflection here, but using an array and for is
a really bad design vs just taking the values.)
