[android-developers] Re: Comment spam in android market :(
I wholeheartedly agree. The comments are invaluable for determining how well an application works, but it's almost to the point where the comments are worthless because there's so much spam and completely off- topic discussion. While I don't like comment moderation as a whole, there should be automatic filtering at the very least. Maybe Google could implement a filter that would delete comments with swear words, or even just turn them into asterisks. There really needs to be a solution to this, it's really getting bad. :-( --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Land Navigation Application development
I'm a US Army Officer Cadet, not a developer. However, I've seen things like the Radar application and know that you can do amazing things with GPS functionality. Part of our training in the Army requires us to do land navigation, where we use 8 digit grid coordinates (e.g. EG12345678) to navigate between two points using a distance (e.g. 1650 meters) and direction in degrees (e.g. 273*). It would be incredibly useful is someone could develop an application in which I could enter a distance and direction (e.g 1650 meters at 273*) that would give me the range remaining and notify me when I'm drifting off azimuth (ideally establishing a tolerance that notifies me when my azimuth variation would result in my being more than 15 meters from my target destination). Perhaps the application could even generate and store the map location that's specified by the distance and direction and automatically recalculate a new distance and direction in the event that I become lost or disoriented or need to navigate to a new waypoint. Please let me know if you could develop such an application! I know that thousands of cadets and soldiers would find this application incredibly useful! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] bindService and call of onServiceConnected
Hi
I am a little confused about when ServiceConnection.onServiceConnected
is actually called. After debugging I realised that it happens after the
UI is built. When I call bindService() it returns an immediate true,
but the onServiceConnected() method isn't even called by then. So I
cannot call methods from the stub in onResume or onStart()?
So, service is still NULL, for example in an onResume() method:
onResume() {
sc = new ServiceConnection() {
@Override
public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName name, IBinder binder) {
service = [whatever].Stub.asInterface(binder);
}
@Override
public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName name, IBinder binder)
{
service = null;
}
};
boolean bound = bindService(bla,bla,bla);
if(bound service!=null) {
//gets never called, service is still null while bound is true
}
}
onPause() {
unbindService(sc);
}
After onResume(), when the Activity is already displayed,
onServiceConnection() gets eventually called. But I cannot get any
information from the service before then, as described above in
onResume().
Furthermore, I observed that an unbindService() does not call
onServiceDisconnected. So, if the Activity was stopped and not
destroyed, the service variable is not null. If it was destroyed, it is
only null because it is newly created.
Can someone reproduce this behaviour? By the way, the service was
already started in onCreate().
Regards
Christoph

[android-developers] Handle tap on MyLocationOverlay current GPS position
Hi there.
I'm having trouble handling a tap on my current location in a
MyLocationOverlay. There seem to be functions specifically for this,
but I can't seem to handle it correctly.
My class look like this:
public class MyApp extends MapActivity implements LocationListener {
and when I try to override the dispatchTap() method I get told that it
must override a superclass. I'm assuming it's something to do with the
fact that my class has no link with MyLocationOverlay. I tried adding
it to the list of implements, but MyLocationOverlay is appanrently not
an interface, or something.
Can anyone tell me how I should go about handling a click on the
current location using a MyLocationOverlay, or not using one if it has
to be done a different way?
Thanks and regards,
Stuart.

[android-developers] Re: Installing large .apk file to Android
Let's consider particular apps we want to be able to install. Here is my short list: 1. Garmin Navigator, currently only for Windows, with functions that are presently not supported on the Maps app that comes with the G1. On my T-Mobile Wing it installs, with data, on the SD card. It doesn't have much RAM, so how is it done on that platform? What would it take to duplicate it on the G1 (leaving aside the port from Windows to Linux).? 2. A decent word processor + spreadsheet app. Preferably openoffice.org, although that is huge. I could get along with Kword and Kspread for a while, or even a good text editor like Kate. 3. An Exchange equivalent, perhaps OpenExchange. 4. A package manager, like Synaptic. 5. A good web editor, such as Quanta Plus. 6. An FTP tool, like gFTP. 7. A terminal console with shell access. 8. A PDF viewer. 9. An accounting app, like Gnucash. 10. A task manager/planner linked to calendar, email, etc. 11. A scientifuic calculator comparable to the TI-89. 12. An encryption manager, PGP. Given the limited RAM and system memory, it would seem that that should be largely confined to the launchers and their icons, with everything else residing on the SD. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Odd XML Upload question
Figured out my problem with HTTP MIME and got it running. New issue has naturally arisen. I'm trying to get a multipart form using MultipartEntity, which is working fine for the signing up process we do in our app. However, uploading XML files is proving problematic as the content headers just don't look right. Is there a way to specify an entity while still maintaining control of setting the content type and specifying base64 encoding for a particular part? The documentation on the libraries is sparse, and there isn't too much to go on by way of code examples. On a more abstract level, is this a normal method of information transport? I'm fairly novice to client-server apps, but I was under the impression you either go fully XML or fully HTTP for client-server communication, but not a mixture of both. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: ImageView automatic sizing
My suggestion is draw to size, manually, outside of the app. Basically, the XML will only rarely do what you want, and it will require some arcane parameter twiddling to even get close to what you want. The stretching/shrinking done by the OS is sketchy at best in my experience. I have personally never had size declaration work either, but I was also using image buttons. On Nov 8, 2:24 pm, David Given [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a layout problem with ImageView. I'm trying to display an image, with a border drawn round it, at the largest possible size that will fit in an area without changing the aspect ratio. I'm doing this with a simple ImageView, with the border drawn using a Drawable attached to android:background. According to the specs, setting android:adjustViewBounds=true is supposed to cause the ImageView to resize itself to match the size of the image it's displaying (after scaling). However, I'm finding that this doesn't seem to make any difference. I finding that I either have the ImageView expanding to fill all the available area (which means the border's not drawn in the right place), or shrinking down to the image's natural size (which means it's floating in the middle of lots of empty space), regardless of whether it's set or not. Which one I get depends on whether the ImageView's size is fill_parent or wrap_content. My XML looks like: LinearLayout ... ...

[android-developers] Re: Odd XML Upload question
In a StringBody or FileBody, you can't set the mime type (content type). You have to extend the class and override mime type setters and getters. Same for MultipartEntity, you have to override the generateContentType method and provide your own contentType. The problem here is that you can't seem to override the setter so you have to hard code the content type in the getter. I guess you have to override multiple times if you need multiple content types. I'm told that all this will be fixed in furure releases of httpmime. On a more abstract level, is this a normal method of information transport? I'm fairly novice to client-server apps, but I was under the impression you either go fully XML or fully HTTP for client-server communication, but not a mixture of both. I'm not sure what you mean by this. There's three levels of communication - actually, there's many more. At the low level, things are handled by httpClient. You handle httpClient. Then the content of what httpClient gets you is - or rather can be - xml, which you handle by DOM or other xml tools.

[android-developers] loading multiple thumbnail images: Java API vs. WebKit
Let's say I need to download and display 10 small thumbnail JPG images quickly. One way to do that is to concat together an HTML doc with several img src=...jpg/ elements and load the document into WebView. The underlying C++ written WebKit is really fast in loading all the images in parallel, allocating memory for them, caching and displaying them. I have not yet figured out a way to do it as quickly in Android's Java using eg. ImageViews. I tried multiple threads (not sure how many does it make sense to run)... Is it the case that programming this task in Java will always be slower than WebKit? -- because of less efficient threading, memory allocation, internal image representations? For obvious reasons I would prefer to use Android's native widgets to generating HTML for WebView.

Thanks, I think I got everything I need from http://code.google.com/android/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LocalServiceBinding.html and http://code.google.com/android/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LocalService.html The approach of creating a Binder to pass the service instance through to the binding activity is easily missed and might deserve some more pointing out in comments and the surrounding documentation. I would imagine that using an activity plus a tightly coupled local service in such a way to create an application which looks to the user like an activity which can be put into the background would be a pretty common usage pattern.

Can they just access shared objects (how to set that up) or does it require an AIDL RPC interface storing everything in a database instead?

[android-developers] Re: bindService and call of onServiceConnected
On Nov 8, 1:29 pm, Christoph [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
After onResume(), when the Activity is already displayed,

information from the service before then, as described above in
onResume().
Right. No point in even trying to run code in onResum that has a
dependency on the service
.I suggest reorganizing the code so that your activity is the listener
rather than the inline
class you posted.
public void onResume() {
boolean result = bindService(pigeon_service, this, 0); // 0 =
do not auto-start
}
public void onPause() {
unbindService(this);
}
public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className, IBinder
service) {
service = SomethingService.Stub.asInterface(service);

[android-developers] Re: Problem with orientation changes in subactivity
I think Romain's solution is the way to go. In every Activity, you
have to check if it's the first time you're there, or maybe you've
been restarted. In the apidemo examples you see that they test if the
input Bundle is null. Depending on that, they start anew or use data
from the Bundle to resume the activity.

[android-developers] Re: Trouble with SoundPool
Yeah there's something you need to know about SoundPool: Init well
before playing - that is, you need to know way ahead of time what
sounds you will be using because it doesn't work well to play
immediately after initializing. I think they attempt to initialize
asynchronously or something because I had problems when I tried to
load and play back to back like you're trying there.
When I use SoundPool, I load everything upon creation of the instance
of the game then trigger the plays whenever I need them. Here's my
current code for SoundPoolSoundManager:
public class SoundPoolSoundManager implements SoundManager {
private static final String TAG = SoundPoolSoundManager;
public static final int SOUND_1 = 1;
private boolean enabled = true;
private Context context;
private SoundPool soundPool;
private HashMapInteger, Integer soundPoolMap;
public SoundPoolSoundManager(Context context) {
this.context = context;
}
public void reInit() {
init();
}
public void init() {
if (enabled) {
Log.d(TAG, Initializing new SoundPool);
//re-init sound pool to work around bugs
release();
soundPool = new SoundPool(SOUNDPOOL_STREAMS,
AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, 100);
soundPoolMap = new HashMapInteger, Integer();
soundPoolMap.put(SOUND_1, soundPool.load(context,
R.raw.sound1,
1));
Log.d(TAG, SoundPool initialized);
}
}
public void release() {
if (soundPool != null) {
Log.d(TAG, Closing SoundPool);
soundPool.release();
soundPool = null;
Log.d(TAG, SoundPool closed);
return;
}
}
public void playSound(int sound) {
if (soundPool != null) {
Log.d(TAG, Playing Sound + sound);
AudioManager mgr = (AudioManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
int streamVolume =
mgr.getStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
Integer soundId = soundPoolMap.get(sound);
if (soundId != null) {
soundPool.play(soundPoolMap.get(sound),
streamVolume,
streamVolume, 1, 0, 1f);
}
}
}
public void setEnabled(boolean enabled) {
this.enabled = enabled;
}

be a great alternative.

[android-developers] Re: Odd XML Upload question
As it turns out, I was using the wrong names for my values. Go me. Same for MultipartEntity, you have to override the generateContentType method and provide your own contentType. The problem here is that you can't seem to override the setter so you have to hard code the content type in the getter. I guess you have to override multiple times if you need multiple content types. I'm told that all this will be fixed in furure releases of httpmime. Fixed in that you won't need to override multiple time, or fixed in that the Body will have settable types? Any word on that whole getContentLength() being fixed? I'm working around it with searching for the appropriate response header at the moment, but it seems silly to have to do so. I'm not sure what you mean by this. There's three levels of communication - actually, there's many more. At the low level, things are handled by httpClient. You handle httpClient. Then the content of what httpClient gets you is - or rather can be - xml, which you handle by DOM or other xml tools. If you want to know what's happening between your program and the server, I recommend using wireshark or a similar tool. I mean in a general sense. My undergrad experience with XML was focused on opening a port, and waiting for a pure XML stream to be parsed by (at the time) SAX. A POST request, to me, would be a simple webform, some binary files to be uploaded, etc. What I'm sending is a multipart form where one of the content bodies is actually parsable XML. It just seems... kinda weird to me, you know? :) Semi-related note: I ended up having to use tcpdump to figure out what I was sending to the server in the first place, because there doesn't seem to be an easy way to get the plaintext of what I'm sending via httpmime, only what I receive.

[android-developers] Re: Applying design to an application
Thanks for the response Christine. I have been playing around with the sdk and searching around online. Working with the controls is straight forward, and I agree that playing around has been a stress free process. I know that I can get the design in there just fine, but I guess I was looking for some general best practices. Additionally, I want to make sure that I am doing things the right way, not just the way I am used to. So if I can ask a more direct question. As a web developer, typically I would approach this problem by having a designer chop up a design into different segments (slices). Using each of those slices, I would apply them to layout controls and backgrounds for various widgets. For instance, custom buttons would have their background set to an image.

My questions are as follows: - My UI designer has created a sample treatment for what the Android application should look like. My designer can cut up the design into individual images so that they can be placed on the canvas. I am hoping to have these images placed as the background for text boxes, buttons, and other widgets. What is the best way to achieve this? - Because there is a landscape and portrait mode, what is the best way to handle the different resolutions? Is there some way to instruct the application to use different images depending on the modes? Is there an event I can listen for so that I can programmatically change the images for the mode the application is in? What is the supported image format for doing things like this (i.e. png, jpg, gif)? My background is in web and desktop applications, so I realize that my questions might be partial to those environments. If Android has a completely different way to achieve these results then pointing me to that documentation is sufficient for now.

error: mOnClickListener connot be resolved or is not a field.
View source code:

So I should have full access to this field from my class.

[android-developers] Re: How can I launch the default Contact Application provided in SDK with my app
Thanks for your help. I am not sure... therefore is it possible to just launch contacts app and use its functionality from a personal application? Is this issue solved? and if yes would anyone help please.

[android-developers] Re: Confused by Android testing framework
I've published a post featuring a simple way to build and run ApiDemos tests not needing ant or maven. This method can also be used to build and run tests for other projects as well.

[android-developers] Re: Trouble with SoundPool
This worked great. Thank you very much. The lack of documentation on
SoundPool is disturbting.

Yeah there's something you need to know about SoundPool: Init well
before playing - that is, you need to know way ahead of time what
sounds you will be using because it doesn't work well to play
immediately after initializing. I think they attempt to initialize
asynchronously or something because I had problems when I tried to
load and play back to back like you're trying there.
When I use SoundPool, I load everything upon creation of the instance
of the game then trigger the plays whenever I need them. Here's my
current code for SoundPoolSoundManager:
public class SoundPoolSoundManager implements SoundManager {
private static final String TAG = SoundPoolSoundManager;
public static final int SOUND_1 = 1;
private boolean enabled = true;
private Context context;
private SoundPool soundPool;
private HashMapInteger, Integer soundPoolMap;
public SoundPoolSoundManager(Context context) {
this.context = context;
}
public void reInit() {
init();
}
public void init() {
if (enabled) {
Log.d(TAG, Initializing new SoundPool);
//re-init sound pool to work around bugs
release();
soundPool = new SoundPool(SOUNDPOOL_STREAMS,
AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, 100);
soundPoolMap = new HashMapInteger, Integer();
soundPoolMap.put(SOUND_1, soundPool.load(context,
R.raw.sound1,
1));
Log.d(TAG, SoundPool initialized);
}
}
public void release() {
if (soundPool != null) {
Log.d(TAG, Closing SoundPool);
soundPool.release();
soundPool = null;
Log.d(TAG, SoundPool closed);
return;
}
}
public void playSound(int sound) {
if (soundPool != null) {
Log.d(TAG, Playing Sound + sound);
AudioManager mgr = (AudioManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
int streamVolume =
mgr.getStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
Integer soundId = soundPoolMap.get(sound);
if (soundId != null) {
soundPool.play(soundPoolMap.get(sound),
streamVolume,
streamVolume, 1, 0, 1f);
}
}
}
public void setEnabled(boolean enabled) {
this.enabled = enabled;
}
}

Hello,
I posted this on the AndDev forums as well, and I'm somewhat of a
novice to Java.
I've tried the following code after seeing the snippet
athttp://www.anddev.org/using_soundpool_instead_of_mediaplayer-t3115.html,
and I can't seem to get this to work. Here's what I have:
public class OneShotAlarm extends BroadcastReceiver
{
private SoundPool soundPool;
private HashMapInteger, Integer soundPoolMap;
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
{
soundPool = new SoundPool(4, AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, 100);
soundPoolMap = new HashMapInteger, Integer();
soundPoolMap.put(1, soundPool.load(context, R.raw.sound1,
1));
AudioManager mgr = (AudioManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
int streamVolume =
mgr.getStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
soundPool.play(soundPoolMap.get(1), streamVolume,
streamVolume, 1, 0, 1f);
}
}
You'll notice I replaced instaces of 'getContext()' with 'Context', as
'getContext()' doesn't seem to be available from where I have this
code.
Here is my LogCat that's being returned, and no sound is being played:
11-08 19:25:23.679: DEBUG/dalvikvm(1822): Trying to load lib /system/
lib/libsoundpool.so 0x0
11-08 19:25:23.759: DEBUG/dalvikvm(1822): Added shared lib /system/lib/
libsoundpool.so 0x0
11-08 19:25:23.819: WARN/SoundPool(1822): sample 1 not READY
Any ideas on this? I've been pulling my hair out all day messing with
MediaPlayer, then I came across SoundPool and it looked like it would
be a great alternative.
Thanks in advance.

[android-developers] Problem with orientation changes in subactivity
Hi,
I have an activity A that the first thing it does is launching a
subactivity B to get a result. So, in the onCreate() method of A, I
have something like this:
Intent intentB= new Intent(this, B.class);
startActivityForResult(intentB, B_RC);
This usually works fine, but if I change the orientation when I'm
inside activity B, then when I close it activity A is recreated, so B
is launched again.
I tried modifying the invocation to B testing if a result has not been
returned previously:
if (!resultFromB) {
Intent intentB= new Intent(this, B.class);
startActivityForResult(intentB, B_RC);
}
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data) {
if (requestCode == B_RC)
resultFromB = true;
}
But it doesn't work because the activity A is created again BEFORE the
onActivityResult method is called.
I have seen something similar in the API demos (RedirectMain.java and
RedirectGetter.java) and they solve it passing the result with a
SharedPreferences object, instead of using the standard mechanisms.
This seems to avoid the problem but I don't like it very much
Any of you have found a better solution?
Thanks,
Jose Luis.

[android-developers] Re: Problem with orientation changes in subactivity
You can do something very simple: when your Activity is killed to be
restarted, you will get a non-null Bundle instance in onCreate().
Start B only when the Bundle is null.
(I also find it weird that you start a sub-activity from onCreate(),
it is a rather peculiar flow.)

[android-developers] MapActivity / MapView causes application to crash at startup
Hi,
I'm trying to create a new application with a MapView.
When I first create a new Android project in Eclipse, I run it in the
emulator and get the expected Hello, [project name] message.
Then, I try changing Activity to MapActivity and adding a MapView
(I've tried both the xml and the code route):
public class MyMap extends MapActivity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
MapView mMapView = new MapView(this, my_map_api_key);
mMapView.setClickable(true);
mMapView.setEnabled(true);
mMapView.setSatellite(true);
setContentView(mMapView);
}
@Override
protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return false;
}
}
However, when I run this in the emulator, it immediately crashes with
the Application has stopped unexpectedly error. The debugger shows
this error:
Thread [3 main] (Suspended (exception RuntimeException))
ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread$ActivityRecord)
line: 2068
ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread$ActivityRecord)
line: 2156
ActivityThread.access$1800(ActivityThread, ActivityThread
$ActivityRecord) line: 112
ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(Message) line: 1580
ActivityThread$H(Handler).dispatchMessage(Message) line: 88
Looper.loop() line: 123
ActivityThread.main(String[]) line: 3742
Method.invokeNative(Object, Object[], Class, Class[], Class, int,
boolean) line: not available [native method]

ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run() line: 739
ZygoteInit.main(String[]) line: 497
NativeStart.main(String[]) line: not available [native method]
I know I'm making some stupid mistake.. but I can't figure it out.
