Re: [android-developers] Re: custom view in widget
This works, thanks. It seems clickable ImageView is the way that works. - Original Message - From: Kostya Vasilyev To: android-developers@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, November 27, 2010 1:34 AM Subject: Re: [android-developers] Re: custom view in widget Hendrik, What are you actually trying to do? Do you need to replace buttons because your widget has several different versions, varying in size and the number of buttons? If that's the case, consider using separate layouts, one for each widget size / number of buttons. You pretty much need this anyway, since initial widget size is specified in widget_info.xml, and there can only be one for each widget declared in the manifest. Once you have a layout with the right number of buttons, you can change them individually with setImageViewResource and setOnClickPendingIntent. This has a side benefit, that only resource id and pending intent id are marshalled cross-process into the home application. Also, I recommend using ImageViews for buttons. They respond to touch events, and you can add visual feedback by using a selector type drawable with an entry for item android:state_pressed=true. Hope this helps. -- Kostya 27.11.2010 2:27, Hendrik Greving пишет: That's a good idea, I'll try that.

[android-developers] Re: addProximityAlert lifecycle
Just in case somebody is interested, everything works now. The key is to put the time into the faked location. fakedLocation.setTime(System.currentTimeMillis()); locationManager.setTestProviderLocation(LocManager.MOCK_PROVIDER, fakedLocation); I've also noticed that even though I was able to make a broadcast work with addProximityAlert, the intent in onReceive of the intent receiver is not the same as the one I created for the PendingIntent created with getBroadcast() passed to addProximityAlert. This might be an Android bug. If I do the same PendingIntent but use it to start a service with getService(), everything works fine. I have one question left regarding service. If I let my service do addProximityAlert, but the service doesn't do anything but waiting for the alert. Can I be sure, that under normal circumstances the proximity alert will be kicked off, even after several days for instance, as long as I specify the expiration time as == -1? - Original Message - From: Hendrik Greving To: Android Developers Sent: Sunday, November 14, 2010 8:05 PM Subject: addProximityAlert lifecycle Hi I understand the documentation about activity and service lifecycle.

Re: [android-developers] layout inflator
Ok thanks. And it works now.

Try finding out more info, how view recycling works in ListViews. The right answer will depend on many details of your design. My attempt: In the default case (in your scenario it is everything else than view at position 0), simply return convertView, ONLY WHEN each view in your list is exactly the same and the contenst of all items exactly are the same OR when you are 100% sure that you are NEVER going to recycle any views (no view will ever too high or too low to get displayed), which is VERY hard to be sure of. If your list is something like: 0: TITLE 1: Item 1 2: Item 2 ... i.e. each list item has a different content, then you have to do a bit more work in your getView(). You have to populate the view behind each item with information specific for this view at this particular position. Other things to look at: - if your items are static throughout the life of the application and there are not too many of them, try using ScrollView. - have a look at ListView.addHeaderView(View) method to add item(s) with different view than the most of the items of the ListView.

Re: [android-developers] Re: ListView setOnTouchListener
If I don't set drawSelectorOnTop, it does nothing. I've also tried getting the TextView and call tv.bringToFront(); within onItemClick of the AdapterView.OnItemClickListener. This doesn't do anything, too. Maybe it's called before the selection drawable is drawn :/ What's the standard way to do this? - Original Message - From: Kumar Bibek To: android-developers@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, October 19, 2010 11:51 PM Subject: Re: [android-developers] Re: ListView setOnTouchListener drawSelector on top, don't set it and try On Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 12:13 PM, Hendrik Greving fourhend...@gmail.com wrote: Ok lv.setDrawSelectorOnTop(true); lv.setSelector(R.drawable.list_selected); does draw a drawable, but it wipes out the rest.

[android-developers] sqlite
I'd like to have a sqlite table with rows of 4 entries: a row id, a string and 2 integers and possibly more data later. I want the string to be unique. What's the easiest way to write an adapter that insert new rows with automatically replacing if the string already exists? Does DatabaseUtils.InsertHelper help? What is this for actually? How can I use CONFLICT_REPLACE? I could probably get it working by making a query and then delete and inserting or something like that, but I'm sure there is a better way. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
