[android-beginners] Re: Struggling with google maps

2009-08-11 Thread Mike Wolfson


NoClassDef always points me to think about Classpath, or
inconsistencies between packages on your system (perhaps you are
running a different version of Android out of eclipse, and linking to
a different library package on your system).

Maybe not that helpful, but something I was thinking about that may
point you to examine your system configuration, which is likely the
problem (as your code looks simple from what you have posted).

[android-beginners] Automatic Import causes crash ?

2009-08-11 Thread jbrohan


org.example.sudoko/android.provider.Settings

I'm not sure how it got there, but I had an Import for
android.provider.Settings which was causing problems in the Sudoko
program in Hello Android  (excellent so far) book. It was giving a
crash when the settings menu was chosen. The clue came in the debugger
log where the problem was logged as Intent not found. Then I thought
that the android.provider...was new, I'd not seen it before. I found
the Import and removed it and Hey Presto!

As you can see I'm just starting out with Android. What are the rules
for  automatic (Ctrl Shift O) imports? Is it that I did the automatic
import before building the class, or the manifest.xml?

[android-beginners] Using ExpandableListView inside a Dialog

so...

public class PaymentList extends ExpandableListActivity{

ExpandableListAdapter mAdapter;

mAdapter = new MyExpandableListAdapter();
setListAdapter(mAdapter);
registerForContextMenu(getExpandableListView());

I now want PaymentList to be a Dialog so:-

cannot resolve setListAdapter or getExpandableListView.

How do I get over this (provide the getExpandableListView

[android-beginners] Re: Using ExpandableListView inside a Dialog


Steve,

setListAdapter() and getExpandableListView() are methods that belong
to the ExpandableListActivity class hence are not available when you
extend the Dialog class.

You could create a Custom Dialog and Use the ExpandableListView as its
view.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ExpandableListView.html

[android-beginners] Re: Automatic Import causes crash ?


If your logcat output for the crash indicated that an Intent was not
found, then your problem is in the AndroidManifest.xml file.
You were trying to access an Intent that you hadn't declared in the
manifest file.
I use automatic imports (cmd-shift-o or ctrl-shift-o) all the time and
it works nicely for me :)
Using them just before building the class should not cause a problem.
The only problem I have seen is if there are two classes by the same
name in two difference packages and you inadvertently pick the wrong
one for your import like Log class or Camera class or sometimes the
R.java class if it was a eclipse version for an older version of
Android.

[android-beginners] Re: AppWidget Initialization. How to do it properly.

2009-08-11 Thread alkar


Any views? :)

On Aug 8, 4:51 am, alkar alcarlo...@gmail.com wrote:
 I'm trying to figure out how to do some initialization for a widget
 I'm developing. What I want to do is perform some actions as soon as
 the device boots. The preferable means would be to do it just before
 the phone shuts down, but from the research I've done there's no way
 to do that with the current API.

 So I would like to ask how would you suggest it be done. The
 initialization process consists of reading/writing some
 SharedPreference values.

 I've thought about employing a activity that does the initialization
 onCreate(), set as android:configure in the AppWidgetProvider xml,
 but that is not a good solution, since adding a second widget of the
 same kind would mean that initialization is done again, something I
 don't want happening.

 I've also read about BroadcastReceiver and BOOT_COMPLETED, but would
 that ensure that the initialization is done prior to the widgets'
 first onUpdate() call? I still have to try this.

 If there's any other means of performing that initialization prior to
 the widgets' first update on boot, I'd like to hear about it.

 As a sidekick here, I'd like to ask you one more thing. Currently, I'm
 saving two Preference values onUpdate() because I couldn't do it
 onPause() with a widget. Maybe I'm being too noob here and haven't
 understand how stuff work, but is that a bad solution? Is it too
 stressing for the device? Is there a better way to ensure the most
 recent data prior to shutdown are being saved? Should I employ a
 service?

 Thank you very much in advance :)

[android-beginners] Re: Operating Systems supported by Android Apps

2009-08-11 Thread midtoad


Maybe I'm missing something, but... your Android apps run on the
Android operating system.

While there are some experimental releases of 'live Android' CDs that
allow you to boot up a regular PC into the Android OS, up to now the
only commercially available devices that run Android are cellphones.
Soon however there will be Android-powered 'smartbooks', i.e. devices
that are somewhere between netbooks (small, internet-focused
notebooks) and cellphones.

This problem was also discussed in the on-line forum for the book
Hello, Android.

As Balwinder says, doing an automatic import can be a problem when
your class has the same name as a built-in class. Ed Burnette, the
book author, says he will change the name of Settings to something
like MySettings for the next edition of his book in order to avoid the
imports problem.

[android-beginners] Re: Is there a simple way to...


Sorry, the design requirements of the problem are not very clear from
the description of the post.
Do you want to run the loop for a finite for every push down or only
while the button is pushed down.

Here are some ideas if they help solve your issue.

You can add View.OnKeyListener and View.OnTouchListener (if you want
to touch enable the button)

Implement the onKey method with something like this

 public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
 if (event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN){

while (myVariable != 0){
  myVariable--;
  audioAlert();
}
myVariable = 1000; // re-initialize
return true;
}else if (event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_UP){

return true;
}

return false;
}
If this is not what you are looking for, kindly give more details.
Also, for the audioAlert you may want to initialize it only once and
then just play a sound in the loop.

[android-beginners] Re: RuntimeException -


I don't see an error in your call stack, did it not mention one? the
problem could be anything, but when I read a call stack that says,
SDK can't start running an app perhaps your SDK was corrupted. I
suggest reinstalling it.

[android-beginners] AVD extremely slow...

2009-08-11 Thread WaltFromBavaria



Dear Developpers,

I created a 'Hello-World'-application on my PC and saw that the AVD is
very slow.
When I type text in the simulation, it takes several seconds until the
text appears in the
text field. Also mouse interactions are very slow.
Possibly my PC is too slow. it's a single core AMD with 1.6 GHz

Are the simulations on your PCs running reasonably fast ?
I just want to make sure it's my PC.

Regards,
Walter

[android-beginners] MediaPlayer and rtsp streaming problems

2009-08-11 Thread Borut


Hi

I have difficulties with rtsp streaming in MediaPlayer.
The code is quite straightforward:

android.media.MediaPlayer player = new 
android.media.MediaPlayer();
player.setDataSource(rtsp://stream.xxx.xxx.xxx/link.sdp); 
//this
link is not alive, only for demo
player.prepare();

Prepare() throws an exception:
08-09 09:54:20.156: ERROR/PlayerDriver(35): Command PLAYER_PREPARE
completed with an error or info PVMFFailure
08-09 09:54:20.168: ERROR/MediaPlayer(396): error (1, -1)
08-09 09:54:20.198: WARN/System.err(396): java.io.IOException: Prepare
failed.: status=0x1
08-09 09:54:20.218: WARN/System.err(396): at
android.media.MediaPlayer.prepare(Native Method)




Has anybody else faced similar problems with MediaPlayer on android
1.5 (emulator and G1 developer's phone)?

btw: rtsp link works ok, cause I have tried it also from the web
browser in android, and it plays well.

[android-beginners] Need way to to auto-switch layout designs

2009-08-11 Thread dawnj2sb


I don't know a lot about *.properties files, but i think that is what
I'm looking for.

I'm creating a project that will first be released under one company
name, and then later under another company name. I have been asked to
design the project in a way that all i have to do is switch out a
value and the images/styling will update accordingly.

So let's say I have a file (not sure what type of file) that contains:

product=ob

Then I could set up my *.java and layout *.xml files something like
this:

JAVA: setContentView(R.layout.login_${product})
Layout: ImageView android:src=@drawable/logo_${product} /,
TextView style=@style/FormText${product} /
Styles: style name=Theme.AppBackground parent=android:Themeitem
name=android:windowBackground@drawable/back_theme_${product}/
item/style

Then all i do is change the value of 'product' in one file and
everything updates for the next build.

Does anyone know how to do this? Are there separate methods for doing
it in JAVA files vs XML files?

[android-beginners] trying to download latest, but the downloaded doc reports it's not the latest

2009-08-11 Thread Curtis.


Hi all,

excuse the doutbless newbie question .. but a quick scan of the FAQ
didn't turn up a pertinent answer.

I've downloaded 2 version of the dev kit now:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.5_r2/index.html
http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.5_r3/index.html

When I download and unpack, and look at RELEASE_NOTES.html in the top
level directory there's a big screaming message that goes like:

Android 1.1 SDK, Release 1
February 2009

This is NOT the current Android SDK release.
Download the current Android SDK
The sections below provide an overview of the SDK package.

For more information on this SDK release, read the Release Notes.

Is this message just incorrect and needs fixing, or are the files I'm
downloading with 1.5 in the title really just 1.1 dev kits?

yours confusedly..
Curtis.

[android-beginners] Urgent Dialog probleme

2009-08-11 Thread Chaoz1336


Hi Guys,

I got the following prob:
-I have to implement an interface
-in most methods its like show dialog and get the selected result
-afaik in android there is no way to wait for such a result

[short: the code should NOT proceed to the return-statement until a
button is clicked!]

so... that's the base;

[syntax=java]public int showDlg()
{
int iSelectedChoice = -1;

//show Dlg

//wait for Dlg to be finished (ok or cancel is clicked, DO NOT
PROCEED until it is clicked) )

return iSelectedChoice; //return selected choice
}[/syntax]

and my current implementation:

[syntax=java]public int AskQuestion(String[] choices, String
strQuestion, int preSelect)
{
Dialog oDlg = null;
Builder oBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
oBuilder.setIcon(R.drawable.cortado_icon);
oBuilder.setTitle(Question);
oBuilder.setSingleChoiceItems(choices, 0, this);
oBuilder.setPositiveButton(ok, this);
oBuilder.setNegativeButton(cancel, this);

oDlg = oBuilder.create();
oDlg.show();

while(m_fBool == false) //m_fBool is set true when a button is
clicked (in the onClicklistener)
{
try
{
Thread.sleep(100);
}
catch (InterruptedException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

return m_iResult;
}[/syntax]

In my implementation I can't see the Dialog anyway =(
Please help me, its urgent!!!

[android-beginners] Cached GPS info?

2009-08-11 Thread Andrés G. Aragoneses


Hi there,

I'm thinking about buying an HTC Hero for usage in the US. I don't plan
to use it with 3G so I guess I'm fine. However, then I'm wondering, can
I use the GPS feature only when I'm connected via WiFi? Is there a way
to download GPS maps of a certain city to have them cached in the SD
card for its usage when there's no data connection?

Thanks,

Andres

2009-08-11 Thread Abhi


Hi Jack,

posting my reply again... dunno where my previous post went.

I have the complete code now but the app force closes on my emulator.
Is it because the emulator doesn't support WiFi apps? and force closes
when it tries to scan for networks? I thought the emulator would just
get stuck at the Starting Scan phase but wouldn't crash... correct?

Hi all,

excuse the doutbless newbie question .. but a quick scan of the FAQ
didn't turn up a pertinent answer.

I've downloaded 2 version of the dev kit now:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.5_r2/index.htmlhttp://developer.android.com/sdk/1.5_r3/index.html

When I download and unpack, and look at RELEASE_NOTES.html in the top
level directory there's a big screaming message that goes like:

Android 1.1 SDK, Release 1
February 2009

This is NOT the current Android SDK release.
Download the current Android SDK
The sections below provide an overview of the SDK package.

For more information on this SDK release, read the Release Notes.

Is this message just incorrect and needs fixing, or are the files I'm
downloading with 1.5 in the title really just 1.1 dev kits?

yours confusedly..
Curtis.

[android-beginners] Re: Cached GPS info?

2009-08-11 Thread John P.


Hi,

The GPS band and data bands are separate, so you can get GPS
information for free even if you don't have any carrier data plans.
Even if you don't have wifi, you can still pickup GPS information.
Note that accessing websites such as Google Maps requires data plan or
wifi connection.  However, if you had mapping software that can
interpret the GPS signals, then you can have mapping + location app
without any internet connection.  Key example is GPS navigation
system on cars -- they don't have internet connections (well, some
may, but they're not necessary for the GPS nav system).

To relate to your case, I have a dev G1 phone that I can setup to use
on wifi to use Google Maps and GPS for location information.  In this
scenario, it doesn't use my ATT data plan.

 Hi Jack,

 posting my reply again... dunno where my previous post went.

 I have the complete code now but the app force closes on my emulator.
 Is it because the emulator doesn't support WiFi apps? and force closes
 when it tries to scan for networks? I thought the emulator would just
 get stuck at the Starting Scan phase but wouldn't crash... correct?

[android-beginners] Re: Using ExpandableListView inside a Dialog

2009-08-11 Thread Steve Hall


Thanks for the prompt reply but the complexity of defining
ContextMenus and setting up the GetViews associated with the
ExpandableList within a Custom Dialog are currently beyond me.

However I have got
Intent i = new Intent(GetFlagSet.this, PaymentList.class);
startActivityForResult(i, 0);

working so I can put back the time when I need to crack creating a
more complex Custom Dialog.

Many thanks Steve

 Steve,

 setListAdapter() and getExpandableListView() are methods that belong
 to the ExpandableListActivity class hence are not available when you
 extend the Dialog class.

 You could create a Custom Dialog and Use the ExpandableListView as its
 view.http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ExpandableListV...http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html#CustomDialog

multiple sub-activities, The intent I have in the manifest for the main
activity is:
intent-filter

action android:name=android.intent.action.MAIN /

category android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /

/intent-filter

But what is the correct intent to have for a sub-activity when you want it
to launch on a specific event (such as onClick)?:

 intent-filter

category android:name=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER /

/intent-filter

Button is a class. Classes do not have return types, methods do.

 But what is the correct intent to have for a sub-activity when you want

  intent-filter
 
 category android:name=/android.intent.category.LAUNCHER/ /

Generally, you do not need an IntentFilter for that situation. Just
reference the class directly when building the Intent you pass to
startActivity():

startActivity(new Intent(this, MyNextActivity.class));

 When I type text in the simulation, it takes several seconds until the
 text appears in the
 text field. Also mouse interactions are very slow.
 Possibly my PC is too slow. it's a single core AMD with 1.6 GHz

 Are the simulations on your PCs running reasonably fast ?
 I just want to make sure it's my PC.

 Regards,
 Walter

I think you need to spend some more time with some tutorials, such as:

http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/notepad/index.html

1. You have not connected a View.OnClickListener to your Button

2. Your guide class is unused, and probably should not be there, with
your onClick() implementation being moved to the View.OnClickListener
you have not set up

The Notepad tutorial, linked to above, will demonstrate how to use a Button.

Sure, download the SDK and it's at $SDK/docs/guide/.

[android-beginners] saving data to text file using eclipse

2009-08-11 Thread Saeed


Hi everyone,

I am trying to save data to my google phone G1. I am able to create
the text file in sdcard by using the following code in eclipse :

//++
try {
FileWriter f = new FileWriter(/sdcard/test.txt);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
//+

but I am not able to save any data to the created file. I found this
code from http://www.anddev.org/working_with_files-t115.html; which
says I can write to text file by running this code.

//+++
try { // catches IOException below
  final String TESTSTRING = new String(hello);


  FileOutputStream fOut = openFileOutput(/sdcard/test.txt,
 
MODE_WORLD_READABLE);
  OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(fOut);

  // Write the string to the file
  osw.write(TESTSTRING);
  // ensure that everything is
  // really written out and close
  osw.flush();
  osw.close();

  } catch (IOException ioe) {
  ioe.printStackTrace();
 }
//+

I run it but I do not see any change in my file.
first, I thought my problem is permission to file. The permission
setting on my phone is:

data:   drwxrwx--x
sdcard:   d---rwxrwx
system:   drwxr-xr-x

would you please help me in either in correcting the code or finding a
way to save data into text file (saved in sdcard or the phone) in
eclipse environment

thanks in advance
