[android-developers] Re: Cam picture 'bigger' then preview
For anyone interested: The problem is there on a 1.5 G1, but not on a 2.1 Milestone/Droid. It might be the handset or the OS version, which i don't know. The basics of the problem as far as I can see, is that the preview is returned in 2:3 (320:480), and the picture will be in 3:4 (1536x2048). Using a scaling-factor I can at least predict _how_ the picture will change. On the milestone/droid the numbers for the preview are 480:640, which is also 3/4, so the scaling issue is non-existent. I tried setting the preview to something 3:4, but as the allowed preview sizes are limited, and I can't get them with the API lvl 5 memberfunction, I didn't get very far (and haven't tried that much).

[android-developers] Re: On activity (re)usage en creation
Any thoughts on how bad the current behaviour is? Not sure what you mean - but if you haven't touched anything else, the current behavior is the default behavior, which should suffice for most apps. My point was, you're basically doing the equivalent of browsing a site. But for each click (as you go from an entry to its comments, to an entry), you start a new activity. Now i can imagine that for a browser you'd have an activity per tab, but not per page (as you have one superclass here, being page). This feels more efficient It is in this case easiest to make a separate activity for each type of page, but this means that while 'browsing' you're making a new activity for each click and that feels a bit redundant, expensive or.. well, something like that? I was wondering if it would be wise to make an effort to keep both pages in the same activity. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] On activity (re)usage en creation
A question that might be a bit general/basic knowledge, but for me it has a quite direct background, so i'll form it as an example: I have an activity entry showing something equivalent of a blogpost, that might have comments. You can click somewhere to open a comments activity. But in this activity there are links back to entries, creating a nice line of activities. If I call the entry activity (with an intent) on a link to show this entry, am I re-using the old activity, or am I creating an endless string of entry, comment, entry, comment activities (pretty cost- ineffective that would be). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: On activity (re)usage en creation
You can test this pretty easily by doing what you described and backing out. If it's the former, you should have 2 back presses. If it's the latter, you should have to back out as many times as activities you started. Yes? Good point I think! That would mean that the back-button is defined as go back 1 activity, and not something more fancy with states. I couldn't find the precize definition of the back button, so i'll assume you're right and go test. In the meanwhile, is there a standard method to ensure some sort of singleton effect?

[android-developers] Re: On activity (re)usage en creation
Well that was easy: Entry 1-click-Comments 1-click-Entry 2. Using back works like you'd expect (that sounds good), so that would mean i'm starting a string of activities (could be bad). Anyone care to give advice about this? Is this a big memoryproblem, or could this just work? Nanne.

[android-developers] Re: On activity (re)usage en creation
In the meanwhile, is there a standard method to ensure some sort of singleton effect? Not sure what you mean by singleton effect, I was referring to the singleton pattern (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Singleton_pattern), but as its not completely correct in this case i obfuscaded the term somewhat to singleton effect :) Sorry bout that. but you probably want to look at the launch mode flags when starting your activities. The singleTask flag, in particular, might be of interest to you. I'll check that so i'll atleast have the choice between the two options. Any thoughts on how bad the current behaviour is?

[android-developers] Re: onReceive not triggering for SEND / image
I know i'm bumping this, but i really think it's something simple i've
missed. Trying to avoid definitions i might be using incorrectly:
This is what i have:
An app that turns up in the share menu of the gallery.
Selecting my app starts it as if you would start it normally
This is what i don't have:
A way to react to the image i was looking at: i do not know where to
define code to do stuff with the picture.
Just a small nudge in the right direction is enough hopefully,
please? :D

Your intent filter needs to be set on an activity. The code you
posted shows it as a Broadcast Receiver.
Change:
receiver android:name=.ImageReceiver
to
activity android:name=.ImageReceiver
and move all your stuff from onRecieve to onCreate. That should take
you forward.
Good luck!

THen i'm just confused about how to react to the intent - at some
point the images i'm sharing should be triggering some sort of event,
so i can handle it. That's what i was trying to do with the receiver.
Could you point me how to have a functions that reacts as an event-
handler of the received 'SEND'?

SEND is an activity action. All you need to do is have it in your manifest
for an activity, as you have shown, and you know it is working because you
see it in the share menu, and when you select your item in the share menu
your activity will be launched with the intent. That is all there is to
it. There is no broadcast receiver involved at all, anywhere.

FOr some more information: I did try to add the intent to an
receiver in the manifest XML on a tip i got, but this not only
didn't work to start my receiver class, it also removed the share
option from the image i was trying to do something with... So not so
big a succes.
I'm sure it's a small thing i've missed (i hope ;) ), so if anyone can
point me towards how what where?
activity android:name=.TestingApp
android:label=@string/app_name
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /
category android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /
/intent-filter
/activity
receiver android:name=.ImageReceiver
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.SEND /
category android:name=android.intent.category.DEFAULT /
data android:mimeType=image/* /
/intent-filter
/receiver
/application

I have the following in my manifest.xml:
application android:icon=@drawable/icon android:label=@string/
app_name android:theme=@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar
activity android:name=.TestingApp
android:label=@string/app_name
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /
category
android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /
/intent-filter
intent-filter
action android:name=android.intent.action.SEND
/
category
android:name=android.intent.category.DEFAULT /
data android:mimeType=image/* /
/intent-filter
/activity
/application
And this does what i thought it should do: when i press share on a
picture, i get my application as an option.
Now, to act on this selecting, i thought to do this:
registerReceiver(new BroadcastReceiver(){
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
//do some stuff
}
}, new IntentFilter(android.intent.action.SEND,image/*));
Now i've tried this with a seperate class, without the second argument
on the intentfilter, and with several variations of the intent
action.SEND, but it doesn't seem to fire when i share my picture.
Could anyone point me somewheres? Do i need an extra permission for
this intent maybe?

[android-developers] onReceive not triggering for SEND / image
