[android-developers] Library Projects with Resources to Jar using r14
When I saw the update notes for r14 regarding library projects, I was ecstatic. It's a dream come true to be able to export a library project as a JAR file! From the latest release notes, it looks like things are coming along, however it appears that resources are still not bundled in the new Jar files created in Eclipse. In the Android Developers Blog, Xavier Ducrohet wrote: This solves the implementation fragility in Eclipse and will allow us to, later, enable distribution of libraries as a single jar file. Does anyone know what parts are still missing? Is there any way to hack the resources in? With the new resource indexes in R14 it seems there might be a manual way to get it done now. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Fragment.onActivityResult is not called
I think Peter's response is accurate. There seems to be a bug in the FragmentActivity.startActivityFromFragment method. I went back and looked at the ApiDemos code and it does work as long as requestCode = 0. However, if you change the request code to anything other than zero, the ApiDemos will fail.

[android-developers] Fragment.onActivityResult is not called
I have an application that targets 2.1. I'm using the Android
Compatibility Package to migrate the code in my Activities to
Fragments. I had an Activity which was launching a contact picker as
follows:
Intent contactPickerIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(contactPickerIntent, CONTACT_PICKER_RESULT);
The result was appropriately handled in the onActivityResult for the
Activity:
@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent
data) {
if (resultCode != Activity.RESULT_OK) return;
switch (requestCode) {
case CONTACT_PICKER_RESULT:
handleResult(data);
break;
}
}
Now, I've migrated both the startActivityForResult call and the
onActivityResult into a Fragment. I have also extended
FragmentActivity in the hosting Activity.
The contact picker still launches correctly, but onActivityResult in
the fragment is never called. If I override onActivityResult in the
FragmentActivity, it *IS* called. However, I don't want to handle the
result there because it breaks the encapsulation philosophy of the new
fragments.
Shouldn't onActivityResult in the fragment be called? Am I missing
something? Thanks for your assistance!

[android-developers] Re: HTC Incredible, unified media content provider for internal/external storage
The content URI for images in the “phoneStorage” seems to be content://media/phoneStorage/images/media Can you try using that Uri instead of EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI? Of course this will require some conditional code specifically for the Incredible, but at least you may be able to get to the content. It *looks* like it works in my test, but my fixture doesn’t display the image so I’m only 90% sure here. I got the URI using this: Uri contenturi = Images.Media.getContentUri(“phoneStorage”); … where phoneStorage is the volume name. There may be some other code you can use to iterate volume names so that the code isn’t totally Incredible specific.

[android-developers] launch calendar app with generic intent
There's seemingly no way to launch the calendar app in a generic way. I've written a widget which allows you to launch the calendar. I use the following Intent: Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW); intent.setClassName(com.android.calendar, com.android.calendar.LaunchActivity); startActivity(i); However, this doesn't work on the Hero because HTC has apparently replaced the calendar in their Sense UI. I'm looking for a standard way to reach the calendar. I'd like for something like this to be standardized: Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW); i.setType(text/calendar); startActivity(i); Does anyone think it would be worth trying to add this to the source? It seems like there is a missing chunk of standards around calendar events and/or iCal / vCal support.

[android-developers] Any way to use getChildDrawingOrder? where do we set FLAG_USE_CHILD_DRAWING_ORDER?
I'm writing a custom widget in which I need to control the child drawing order. My control extends AbsoluteLayout. I can see that getChildDrawingOrder is overrideable. The following note is in the javadocs for this method: NOTE: In order for this method to be called, the FLAG_USE_CHILD_DRAWING_ORDER must be set. However, I can find no setter to allow me to set this flag. There are setters for similar flags such as the add states for children, but seemingly nothing for the child drawing order. GalleryView uses this flag, but it does so by accessing mGroupFlags which is a protected and hidden property of ViewGroup. What am I missing? Shouldn't this flag be exposed in some way to allow widget developers to utilize it? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Extending AdapterView - getting only 1 level of children
Diane, et. al. I've looked at this extensively without resolution. The widget that is most similar to what I'm trying to create is the Gallery. In the Gallery, there is a private setUpChild method. This method has the following (stuff omitted for brevity): Gallery.LayoutParams lp = (Gallery.LayoutParams) child.getLayoutParams (); addViewInLayout(child, fromLeft ? -1 : 0, lp); child.measure(childWidthSpec, childHeightSpec); child.layout(childLeft, childTop, childRight, childBottom); The gallery calls setUpChild from it's onLayout override. So I understand the basic process to be 1. addViewInLayout, 2. measure it 3. layout the child. However, when I follow these steps in my extension of AdapterView, I get no visible sub children. If you notice my magicitem.xml the children expand to an ImageView nested inside a FrameLayout. I can see the frame , but not the image. I know the ImageView is inflated because an eclipse breakpoint and watch reveals the ImageView as a child of the FrameLayout. All of the properties of the ImageView seem to be set appropriately. I've tried to create extensions up and down the hierarchy, extending ViewGroup, AdapterView, and even Gallery. All tests have the same result. Children do not show their child view collections. I'm sure there's a simple step I'm missing or something is out of order. Does anyone have any idea what I'm missing here? Has anyone else tried an extension of ViewGroup or more specifically AdapterView? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Extending AdapterView - getting only 1 level of children
I'm creating a custom widget that extends AdapterView. Imagine
something like a ListView except that the list items can overlap each
other with some transparency. Because of the overlap, I'm trying to
control the layout and drawing order of the children.
My issue is that the control renders it's children, but ONLY one level
deep. Each child is inflated from an XML resource that contains a
FrameLayout and an ImageView. The FrameLayout draws, but the ImageView
is never visible. I assume I need to call some method to tell the
FrameLayout to layout or draw it's children, but I'm not sure what,
why, or where. Does anyone know what I'm missing?
Here is the relevant code for my custom widget:
public class MagicList extends AdapterViewAdapter
{
// blah stuff omitted...
@Override
protected void onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b)
{
this.removeAllViewsInLayout();
// fetch only the visible views
for(int i = 0; i vcount; i++)
{
layeredviews[i] = allviews[vfirst+i];
}
// sort them in drawing order
Arrays.sort(layeredviews, new ViewComparator());
// add them back as children in the right order
for(int i = 0; i vcount; i++)
{
this.addViewInLayout(layeredviews[i], i,
this.generateDefaultLayoutParams());
}
}
@Override
public void setAdapter(Adapter value) {
adapter = value;
allviews = new View[adapter.getCount()];
}
// more blah omitted
}
Here is relevant stuff from the adapter used to inflate the list
items:
public class MagicAdapter extends BaseAdapter
{
// blah adapter stuff omitted.
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.magicitem, null);
return v;
}
}
Here is the magicitem XML that is inflated as the child views that the
MagicList is handling. Note that I NEVER see the image view. I only
see the drawable background for the FrameLayout.
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
FrameLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/

android:layout_width=wrap_content
android:layout_height=wrap_content

[android-developers] Broken Gallery View? using Gallery.setSelection(int position, boolean animate)
I'm trying to set the selection of a Gallery in code. I would like to have the Gallery smoothly roll down a few items over the duration of a second or two. At frist glance, it appears that two members would to the trick: Gallery.setAnimationDuration(int animationDurationMillis); Gallery.setSelection(int position, boolean animate); It turns out that the setAnimationDuration only seems to affect the rubber-bandy return-to-center effect of the Gallery. In other words, when a gallery comes to rest after a fling, and a gallery item is off center, the animationDurationMillis is used to control the duration of the Gallery centering up the item. However, the value seems to have no effect on the setSelection. No matter what value is set with setAnimationDuration, the Gallery seems to render about 2 or 3 frames when flying between items 1 and 10 for example. Is this working as designed? Does anyone know a trick or workaround that would let me properly animate setSelection? I'd be especially grateful if we could do it with an Ease Out effect. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Hey Ryan. I saw you never got an answer to this. Hopefully this helps: I'm scaling a view by overriding onDraw. Inside the onDraw method of my view I'm calling layout(l1, t1, r1, b1).
