IOW, the OP most likely should not be using ArrayAdapter at all, but relying on CursorAdapter talking directly to the ListView; it really is tailor-made for this situation. ArrayAdapter is really meant for a different situation: when you have a (static) array containing the data to be displayed. C

[android-developers] Re: Is it worth writing a ContentProvider and using CursorAdapter for this case?

And you can extend Cursor to add your own special sauce. I have one that works on top of a REST-ful database rather than SQLite. > > Also not that as far as I know CursorAdapter doesn't have a dependency on > there being a content provider.  It just wants a Cursor, which you can get > from any SQL

[android-developers] Re: A Problem about developing with GPS module

A trick that I've found works on some phones is to register the listener and de-register it once a minute. Android seems to kick off a GPS measurement right after the listener is registered. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group. T

A couple of suggestions: First, you're enough of a non-programmer yet that App Inventor (http:// appinventor.googlelabs.com) might be a better choice for you right now. If you stick with programming, you can definitely get into "real" Android development at some point, but it's not really beginner

One of the most original musical minds of the 20th century was Don Van Vliet aka Captain Beefheart. His music was so unusual that experienced musicians had trouble approaching it. He preferred to find non- musicians and train them from zero. Android is like that - it's almost better to come at it w

[android-developers] Re: New to Developing, Need Insight

Nice analogy - I'm a Captain Beefheart fan. But I beg to differ. While the Android SDK most certainly has its idosyncracies, mostly notably for me the incessant overuse of implementation inheritance and the use of ints instead of (typed) enums. It also requires a good understanding of standard des
