[android-developers] Backup of APK to SDCard.. Astro file manager does it...

2010-11-17 Thread David Orriss Jr
Anyone have any idea how this would work or what APIs would be used?  I've
had people say that root is required, but Astro doesn't seem to need that.

Anyone have a code snip to show how this works?

I know, for example, one issue that I have with K9 is that POP access

 Possible?  Suggestions?

 I don't think you can get a result directly from calling
 loadUrl(javascript:yourfunctionhere()) on a WebView.

 However, you *could*:

 1. Add a callback via addJavascriptInterface()

 2. Have your Javascript function call that callback with your result

 3. Call the Javascript function as described above

 On the plus side, this probably works. On the minus side, it requires a
 change, or at least a wrapper, for the Javascript function to use the
 callback.

Hi Mark,

Y'know I did some digging after posting this and came to this exact
same conclusion.  Thanks for verifying what I thought was the case.
I'll tinker around and see if it works.  I'll let the list know what I
find.

[android-developers] Webkit - prevent reload of page when screen is popped out..?

2008-11-23 Thread David Orriss Jr

Hi,

I have an app using the WebKit that I'm developing.  In my onCreate()
method I'm loading my page:

browser = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webkit);
browser.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
browser.loadUrl(file:///android_asset/mystuff.html);

However, this fires off when the keyboard is popped out.  What do I
need to do in order to have the browser only load on the initial start
of the app and not do a complete reload of the page when the
orientation is changed?
