[android-developers] Re: Goodbye friends and thanks for all the help.
>Yes, its extremely frustrating .. ... > I hate it when business models restrict innovation. I've moved from frustration to resignation now. Personally, I feel that Google has been, and still is, one of the most significant driving forces behind innovation in IT today. Things to some extent go where Google takes us, and it was generally the open inclusive nature of Google and Android that brought us to the table - hoping for a few scraps;). But reality at some point has to take over. Developers in Australia ( others in places such as Canada, Ireland and many countries too numerous to name but worthy to mention) are simply not part of Googles business plan ATM. Essentially, there has been no new countries added to the list for some time. Links like this http://market.android.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=143779 only add to the confusion. I suppose I've been made to feel a bit like Marie in the film "When Harry Met Sally" Marie, Sallys' friend is having an affair for years with a married man who is always promising to leave his wife. Marie: I don't think he's ever going to leave her. Sally: I know he's never going to leave her. Marie: You're right, you're right. I know you're right. Lets be honest with ourselves. Developers in countries not already enabled for paid apps are not a priority for Google - despite the promises. With PayPal coming, it might be happening (although let's not hold our breath). But I doubt GoogleCheckout is happening - or it would have already. It's GoogleCheckout that demonstrates Googles commitment. At the risk of sounding very full of myself I'm right, I'm right.

Sorry for slow reply - been away. > By the way, if I changed LocalBinder to a static inner class, does it > make sense ? I have made a separate generic class that usually use for all my services ie one that I import in - just a bit of cut and paste.

A Java expert may correct me here - but I think you will find that "static" is one of those words in Java that has different meanings depending on where it is used. I believe in the case of inner classes "static"does not mean that the inner class is the same object for all instances of the outer class. Rather it is an object that no longer has a reference to the outer class - and that you will need to pass a reference in when you instantiate the inner class and get the inner class to null out that reference when no longer required.

[android-developers] Re: Wrapping content of a TableRow
Chris, You probably need two things. 1/ make sure your text view is multiline, as opposed to singleLine, if you want it to wrap to the next line. 2/ you will need to set the column for your text view (the one that you want to wrap) to "shrinkable". have a look at http://developer.android.com/intl/de/reference/android/widget/TableLayout.html If you don't do this, Android will just make each column as wide as its content. It doesn't know which columns are ok to shrink and which need to stay full width. That's your job. On Jul 27, 1:49 am, Chris Stewart wrote: > Has anyone run into this?

Probably the model that your looking for is a local service. Keep all your interaction with the db in the one service. Open the db in onCreate and close it in onDestroy. You can bind to it from multple Activities - and if your service is still there when binding so is your db without replicating code all over the place. Have a look at http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/index.html Just one word of caution.

I'm not sure what the question is here, but barcode scanner usually reads the barcode in less than a couple of seconds - depending on focus, and how steady your hand is.

[android-developers] Re: Using barcode scanner as input method?
> Do not tell me I have to develop an application from scratch > to get this... OK. I wont :) ... and you don't. You can launch the barcode app with an Intent using startActivityForResult(). You will get back a result with Extras that will have the barcode content - and also I believe the barcode format. Implement onActivityResult() to catch the callback. I have done it before but don't have the details at hand ATM. Just download the source and it will take about 10min to work out. Look for the name of the Intent in the manifest. Just be aware that I believe some other barcode shopping type apps try to catch the same Intent which may cause conflicts as to the experience you expect your users to have - it may open a different app to that you expect depending on what is on your users phone. As the project is open sourced you may be better off incorporating zxing into your project somehow and launching it with a specific Intent for the class that serves as an entry point.

[android-developers] Re: Bottom of one LinearLayout being hidden by other LinearLayout?
Hi Mike, It appears you may be running out of room. RelativeLayout is drawing your first LinearLayout and then placing the other on top. My understanding is that Relative Layout (and FrameLayout) maintain a Z- ordering of children essentially each child is on a layer above the previous and will obscure previous children unless you tell it to do otherwise. You got lucky with your portrait layout. You could consider trying the following : 1/ Declare your button bar linear layout aligning it with the parent bottom. 2/ Declare your other LinearLayout next aligning it's top with the parent and bottom with the button bar. 3/ make this second linear layout scrollable with android:isScrollContainer="true" http://developer.android.com/intl/de/reference/android/view/View.html#attr_android:isScrollContainer The idea is that your top linear layout will scroll if there is insufficient room and your layout will be more flexible to cope with more devices. If this doesn't work try a ScrollView. http://developer.android.com/intl/de/reference/android/widget/ScrollView.html Don't let any of this put you off RelativeLayout. They are extremely powerful and help to reduce the depth/levels of your view hierarchy. In fact, you might consider using a second relative layout which would allow you to get rid of all those nested LinearLayouts with one Relative Layout. They are trickier but definitely worth it. http://developer.android.com/intl/de/resources/articles/layout-tricks-efficiency.html Best Regards, Geoff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: How to disable home and other buttons so as to persist an app?
Quick question guys. I have no real knowledge in this but am quite interested. Assuming that the devices belong to an enterprise, can you just replace the Home application with your application? Like... http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/Home/index.html That way when the home button was pressed it would just open up the app again. Additionally, could you use some of the "single task", "single instance" type flags to ensure "there can be only one". Home -> goes back to you. is the user offered a choice of home apps? Can that be made permanent? Back -> goes back to you or can be disabled. Menu - > can be disabled -> no longer exposes the settings to manage applications (or is there an alternate way?) I would imagine that user permission is required to initially set the home application? Again is this a permanent? Can enterprise users be prevented from resetting the home app? Whilst the average user would never want to do such a thing. There are many enterprise applications - including the one I am working on. Best Regards, Geoff PS.

[android-developers] Re: Debugg problem source not found
Hi Mohammad, I suspect you are using Eclipse and whilst stepping through the code you are getting "source not found" whilst calling methods that you have not written yourself. There is no bug. You probably don't have the source code files for Android on your system. This is the default and is not your fault. In this case, Eclipse will display the class file for the method that has been called. If you want to dig a bit deeper and have a look at the actual source code for that Android class, have a look at the following blog. Whilst I have no idea as to how up to date the various source code files are, I still find it fairly useful. http://android.opensourceror.org/2010/01/18/android-source/ Once done, you should get to see the actual source code for Android when debugging, and can also view source when inspecting the android.jar in your Eclipse project.

[android-developers] Local Service not Registering
Essentially my problem is this, I open my Activity. It binds to a
local service that "appears" to be connected. I get a force close when
I press the back button
"IllegalArgumentException: Service not registered" when unbind is
called in my onPause method...
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
if (isFinishing()) {
if (mConnection != null){
Log.i(TAG,"onPause, mConnection" +
mConnection.toString());
mDbS.unbindService(mConnection);
}else {
Log.i(TAG,"mConnection is null");
}
The service is bound in onCreate
// bind to our sdCard database using our Service Connection
mServiceIntent = new Intent(this,DatabaseService.class);
if(bindService(mServiceIntent, mConnection,
Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE)){
Log.e(TAG, "service bound");
}else{
Log.e(TAG, "service not bound");
}
bindService is returning true.
My Service connection is as follows. onServiceConnected is called and
goes to completion. onService Disconnected is never called (presumably
because my service is in same process)
private ServiceConnection mConnection = new ServiceConnection() {
public final String TAG = "LoadView.ServiceConnection"; //$NON-
NLS-1$
public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className, IBinder
service) {
mDbS = ((LocalBinder)
service).getService();
.
stuff not relevant
Log.i(TAG, "finished onServiceConnected"); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName className) {
Log.e(TAG, "onServiceDisconnectedCalled"); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
};
The only thing I do a little different is that I don't use an inner
class in my service for the Binder object - I use a separate class.
This is mostly because I have several databases and wanted code I
could reuse and set up simply rather than worry about all the ins and
outs and memory leak issues.
import android.os.Binder;
import android.util.Log;
public class LocalBinder extends Binder {
private String TAG = "LocalBinder";
private S mService;
@SuppressWarnings("unused")
private LocalBinder() {
}
public LocalBinder(S service){
mService = service;
}
public S getService() {
return mService;
}
public void finalize(){
mService = null;
try {
//TODO reinstate this after Issue 8046 is resolved
//super.finalize();
} catch (Throwable e) {
Log.e(TAG,"Unable to finalize Binder");
}
}
}
Any ideas?

[android-developers] Re: Simple LinearLayout doesn't work
Gravity defines the layout of elements laid out within that view - not the view itself. For what I think you may be trying to achieve, you may be better off with a RelativeLayout instead of a LinearLayout for your outer layout. Set the relative layout gravity to center_horizontal, then put the Image view to the right of the linear layout.

[android-developers] Re: Sliding Drawer question
Tommy, Whilst RelativeLayout is quite powerful, and as Mark stated earlier, is what you need for your sliding drawer - especially as you have other elements - you may need to be a little more careful in the order you declare your view elements. If you want your SlidingDrawer to go over the top of all of the other elements, then declare it last in your Relative Layout. Better still, as it appears you may not be used to RelativeLayout yet - just try dropping the SlidingDramer for now (Ctrl-c will comment out the rows in the XML Editor in Eclipse) - put it back in last in your relative layout when you have the rest of your layout where you want it. You need to declare your elements in the correct order. For example, you should declare tvStationName before TideLoadMessage if you want TideLoadMessage to obey android:layout_below="@+id/ tvStationName" . I don't think you want to use "android:layout_below="@+id/lvReport" " for your Sliding drawer if you want it to open over your lvReport - I think (not really sure on that). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Process Crash whilst using JUnit
Thanks for the reply Bob. I'm a little out of my depth here. Luckily, or I suppose yes by plan, I am using subversion and have found a much smaller subset of my code that causes the problem. Actually using System.gc() did help me isolate and was actually an earlier post of yours that gave me the idea. Essentially it occurs when I am using a SQLite database in a Service I have. By chance it can be brought to the fore after a single test case and i am attempting to narrow down exactly where/why it is occurring. I have logged Issue 8046 (rather poorly at first) so the Android people can see if it is something important to them - although usually in these instances it is something naive I have done.

[android-developers] Process Crash whilst using JUnit
Nearly at my wits end. Been slowly building my app and now JUnit is
crashing regularly with logcat as below.
There are no other real hints. No relevant code as this can happen at
multiple points of the code. There are no other errors or exceptions
thrown. As far as I can tell there is plenty of memory left and my app
does not appear to have any leaks I can find during a run outside of
JUnit.
Any ideas?

Hi Prajakta, Not sure here - but I dont think you really need to call stopService. Stop service is usually used when you have started your service with startService(). Unbind service is used when you started the service with bindService. If you really needed to kill your service when unbinding then you might use stopSelf() in your services onUnbind() method which I believe is called when there are no remaining bound services. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Custom Dialog
Bob, Thanks for this and other posts. If it weren't for yourself, Mark Murphy and TreKing I would be pulling my hair out - and its getting too precious to be doing that these days. As someone with not a lot of experience in things Android, the Context is one of the most confusing things to me and I would love to see a blog article/ Mark Murphy chapter specifically on each of the various levels of Context returned by the various methods and when they should be used. Frankly there are that many posts about:- * dialogs and conflicts with documentation like this one. * toasts and leaks ( http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/de2f0cebec002303/475f545e947a5915?lnk=gst&q=toast+leak+context#475f545e947a5915) * leaks and using ApplicationContext with long lived objects "There are two easy ways to avoid context-related memory leaks. The most obvious one is to avoid escaping the context outside of its own scope. The example above showed the case of a static reference but inner classes and their implicit reference to the outer class can be equally dangerous. The second solution is to use the Application context. This context will live as long as your application is alive and does not depend on the activities life cycle. If you plan on keeping long-lived objects that need a context, remember the application object. You can obtain it easily by calling Context.getApplicationContext() or Activity.getApplication()." - http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/avoiding-memory-leaks.html * Binder.java having internal comments warning about potential memory leaks using non-static sub-classes - but nothing in the javadoc documentation. (Well, maybe experienced Java developers are fully aware of the references inner classes have on their outer class - but some of us have very little experience and are putting our apps alongside yours) THAT quite frankly confuses the hell out of anyone new to Android. There doesn't appear to be any real documentation in the developer Resources area (I apologise if I have missed it) that really explains what all the different hierarchies of context are, what they give you or with what types of objects they are to be used. Hopefully I am correct in saying that every Intent is either passed or receives from somewhere a Context of some form - but there is little information on what that is or should be. I'll be the first to admit that, when I first started and until quite recently, been passing contexts that are as non-specific or higher up in the hierarchy as possible with the perhaps misguided opinion that - " well at least if I leak this it wont keep around anything else that's not there anyway". Yes, I agree with you I am an idiot who doesn't know the first thing about leaks, SoftReferences and memory management. But until I started learning about these things and MAT and tracking leaks, without a real resource on Contexts - can you forgive me for succumbing to temptation? After all, until you know better isn't Java supposed to take care of all this for you? With the ease of publishing apps on the market, goods apps put out there by people like yourselves - are next to apps by teenagers with little experience in Java let alone Android. Bad apps impact the good ones, not just whilst they are running, but also through the entire "Android experience" that users get. If an app force closes one gets this little voice in the back of their head telling them that Android, and not just that app, is prone to being buggy. When most of the time it is newbies like me who fail to really understand the Android environment whinging and complaining about Androids faults when all we are really doing is externalising our own shortcomings. On the whole, I love Android, but an article on Context best practice (or maybe half a chapter, or Appendix table, in one of Mark Murphys books) is really needed so that Learner drivers like myself don't ruin the Android experience for everyone. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] EditText uncontrollable/unpredicatable soft keyboards
Does anyone have an idea as to what determines whether the soft keyboard will be opened with an EditText. I have a single Edit Text, in a RelativeLayout, that has an attached onEditorActionListener which for some strange reason grabs focus and opens the soft keyboard whenever the activity is started. Essentially, I do not want the EditText to be focussed or the keyboard opened until the user touches it. For a start it steals all my screen real-estate. I am unable to make any other View take focus away from the EditText programatically. If I make the EditText unfocussable in onCreate() then the keyboard does not open. If I make it focussable again later in the code, say onResume(), the keyboard opens. Removing the listener makes no difference. Am I missing something?.

[android-developers] Re: Trapping onItemSelected events from an Auto complete list
Hi had same problem.
What I suspect you need is an AdapterView.OnItemClickListener. This
captures events when the item is clicked. OnItemSelected appears to
capture when the list item gains focus such as when the DPad buttons
are used to shift focus. Change all your "selected" 's to"click" 's
and things should be dandy.

[android-developers] Re: International emergency number support

I need to find out as I am looking at importing some specific Android devices for a project I am working on. Voice communication equipment in Australia needs to be able to access 000 as an emergency number for regulatory approval. From what I have found so far this is usual done by diverting users 000 calls to 112 on mobile networks (not the other way around). I'm trying to find out if that is something Android "just does", or modifications will need to be made. > > Btw, are you a programmer? we could collaborate if so. > Thanks but I'm really flat out atm.

[android-developers] International emergency number support
Does any one have any idea as to which countries Android supports interms of Emergency Number dialling. Is there a list of supported countries and emergency numbers? For example US has 911, Australia has 000 and there is also the international numbers 112. How can we find out which numbers/countries are supported for emergency dialling? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
