[android-developers] Re: Hmm... at last ADC2 is out of our way ... tell about your app and experience
Product Name: *You’re Invited* Description: Invitation Manager Category: Productivity/Tools URL: www.bytedroid.com/youareinvited I created this app to remember the Invitations I received. I used to forget the date and time of the event often, so I missed many. I thought I will create an app which stores invitation information and gives some Periodic alerts as well as Location alerts. Location alerts popup when I happen to be near the venue of event. For this I store the event location’s Geo Information like Longitude and Latitude. And I made all this in *You’re Invited*. It was a challenge this being my first Android application and I am glad I finished it on time, at least the first version. I have already thought of a few things to put in next version. *You’re Invited* is full with features and yet is simple to use. Invitations you receive will automatically go in Upcoming Invitations or Missed Invitations category depending on event date and current date. With *You’re Invited* you are no more missing events by chance, you can always do so by choice. You can put an Upcoming Invitations in Not Interested category. There will be no Location or Periodic alerts for Not Interested, Missed and Attended events. If you have already attended an invitation which has gone to missed category being of previous date, you can shift it to Attended category. All these categories are shown in different tabs in App. You can create a new invitation using template provided. If you quickly want to fix an official meeting simply select the Invitation type as Meeting, select the invitees contact number and/or email id from the contacts or type in yourself. SMS will be sent to the numbers and mail will be sent to the ids. Write the message, date Time and venue and send it. If you want Location Alert, Geo Tag the venue. In case of a not so quick invite like that of a birthday or wedding, you can put in your own creative messages. You can put in R.S.V.P. as well. There is a limit on characters if you send SMS but no limit if you are sending a mail. In case you want to review it later before sending save it in draft and send from draft later. You can keep all your invitations in one place using *You’re Invited* using Add Invitation option. Put in the details of invitation received from other sources like email or Invitation card in Add and you will start getting alerts and other advantages like any invitation from *You’re Invited*. You will get to know of Upcoming invitations through notifications. Location and periodic Alerts, GUI display options, mode of sending invitation – mail or SMS, cleaning up of Invitation list are all configurable through the Settings option. You can customize the App the way you want. I have given a one touch option to quickly see today’s and tomorrow’s events. When you are looking at the geo location in Map or satellite view al the details of event is visible at the location point itself. You do not have to switch views to get the details. You can see the route from your current location to venue. I have also added some FAQs in case of help required in usage of which the chances are less. I am planning to put a couple of more things in next version: 1. Template messages according to the invitation type 2. Removing SMS size Limit 3. Animated invitation cards 4. Automatic date setting of events like Christmas, New year *You’re Invited* will soon be available in the market for free. Any feedback from you will be appreciated.

Hello Kostmo
use the following code to toggle check box

CheckedTextView tempView = (CheckedTextView)v.findViewById

[android-developers] Re: Sharing data between activities
yes, for returning values from second activity call setData(,,) from second
activity before finishing activity.
And in first activity instead of startActivity(..) call
startActivityForResult(..)
and override onActivityResult(...)
for Example:
In parent activity,
declare a variable for aaa child activity
static final int AAA_ACTIVITY_RETURN = 0;
static final int BBB_ACTIVITY_RETURN = 1; //another bbb child activity
for com.sample.bbb.class ( for Multiple activities )
Intent intent = new Intent(this,com.sample.aaa.class); //aaa is child
activity
intent.putExtra(ARG1,value1);
intent.putExtra(ARG2,value2);
startActivityForResult(intent, AAA_ACTIVITY_RETURN );
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent
data)
{
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode == AAA_ACTIVITY_RETURN )
{
String sVal1 = data.getStringExtra( Return1 );
String sVal2 = data.getStringExtra( Return2 );
}
if(requestCode == BBB_ACTIVITY_RETURN)
{
// handle values from bbb child activity
}
}
In Child Activity
some_Activity_close_funnction()
{
Intent data = new Intent();
data.putExtra(Return1,Val1);
data.putExtra(Return2,val1);
setResult(RESULT_OK,data);
finish();
}

thanks man, that is an excellent way of explaining so even an android-
beginner can understand. Is there a similar way of returning data to
the first activity when the second activity has finished running,
corresponding to javas return value1;?

Hello
To summarize: Activities don't have constructors! How do I send data

we can send data from parent activity to childs, using Intent
for example:
In parent activity,
Intent intent = new Intent(this,com.sample.aaa.class); //aaa is
child activity
intent.putExtra(ARG1,value1);
intent.putExtra(ARG2,value2);
StartActivity(intent);
In Child activity (aaa) use Bundle to get the data
public void onCreate(Bundle som) {
super.onCreate(som);
Intent intent = this.getIntent();
Bundle b = intent.getExtras();
String sVal1 = b.getString(ARG1);
String sVal2 = b.getString(ARG2);
...
}

Android supports multiple IPC mechanisms.
You can use the Intent mechanism as well as the AIDL mechanism for
doing this. The AIDL approach is more complex but offers you also
more
flexibility to pass objects.

Hi,
If both activities are in the same application, then just use a
global
object and pass that around (singleton or such). Not too tough.
