Hi fellow developers,
I am going bald with this, ripping my hairs.
I spend hours searching google, anddev, stack overflow and forums to
no extent, I have found nothing.
I'm designing a simple app, for my first, that get datas from a web
service.
The main ui launch a thread that will act as a work
Hiii,

Hi,
Can i do this :-
Set the image background path as package:imageName
Example.. At runtime , my package is com.test.android .Inside that i have an
image whose path i want to mention in the XML layout file as
android:src = com.test.android/img1 for an ImageButton.
I saw an SDK reference for ImageV
Hi!

I'm missing the google maps library. There are different posts where i

This might work, but it would require me to duplicate functional
methods from activity 2 into the main activity, which is undesirable.
So far, sending and intent upon releasing long press is working just
fine, and, although it adds some complexity to the code, it's by far
the simplest solution.

If you want to have text on the screen that can be changed by the
program, could you create a text field as a resource and then change
its content in the code?

I know there is a lot of code, but I thought too much is better than
too few.
Answering your propositions:
1) Effectively, I discarded the getApplicationContext pretty fast.
2) I know that the AsycTask is aimed for that exactly.
I just would like to understand why this cod
