[android-developers] Re: Building on Ant
Hi, You should make sure you have set the JAVA_HOME and the ANT_HOME variables, also it is probably best to set the Android home as a environment variable (http://code.google.com/android/intro/ installing.html). Also, after setting these variables, add them to your system PATH variable, that way you will have access to the tools from any directory on your system. Ant usually runs just by calling the ant command from the folder where your build.xml file resides. If the build file is named different than build.xml you need to run ant -buildfile buildfilename. Hope this helps, Mihai On Dec 9, 2:49 pm, Tharun Kumar [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm trying to build on Ant. But I'm stuck with a thing.

I don't think a general-purpose UI for sending email sounds useful, but a general-purpose API for email definitely sounds useful. Obviously, it would have to be a privilege you grant an application (access your email and send email on your behalf seem like good candidates), but given that the phone is so connected to my gmail account, I was really surprised to not be allowed to take advantage of it from my own apps. For example, one of the first apps I wanted to write was something that would hook into an incoming mail notification and play custom notification sounds based on simple message-matching rules.

[android-developers] Contact insertion successfull...But contact not be viewed through contacts app
HI All,
I am facing a weird issue related to contacts.
Issue:
I'm able to insert a contact successfully to the phonebook from my
application. But when I try verify the same by opening contacts
application on SDK I'm not able to find this contact.
My code for inserting contact
Cursor cur = managedQuery(People.CONTENT_URI, new String[]
{ People._ID }, People.NAME + =? AND + People.NUMBER + =?, new
String[] {contactName, contactNo }, null);
if ((cur != null) (cur.getCount() == 0)) {
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(People.NAME, contactName);
Uri uri = getContentResolver().insert
(People.CONTENT_URI, values); // insert to People's table
values.clear();
values.put(Phones.PERSON_ID, ContentUris.parseId
(uri));
values.put(PhonesColumns.NUMBER, contactNo);
values.put(PhonesColumns.TYPE,
PhonesColumns.TYPE_MOBILE);
getContentResolver().insert(Phones.CONTENT_URI,
values); // insert to Phone's table.
Am I missing or doing something wrong while insert opertion. How can I
ensure that the newly added contact is visible when I launch my
contacts application on SDK.
Another observation:
If I launch Contacts List view from my application by following code
the contact added can be viewed.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
People.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT_REQUEST);

If so, be sure that the Bitmap's config matches your window (typically 565), otherwise things will go a lot slower, as we depth-convert your Bitmap each time it is drawn. If you have a large area that is a solid color, it might be faster to draw that (via canvas.drawColor or canvas.drawRect) and then draw the bitmap. It all depends, but the fastest a Bitmap can go is memcpy, but drawing a large area in a solid color can use memset, which is faster for the same number of dst pixels.

[android-developers] Re: Contact insertion successfull...But contact not be viewed through contacts app
I believe the built in Contacts app is using the My Contacts group,
not just all of the contents of the People table, etc. Looks like (at
a quick glance) you are putting a record in People just fine, but not
also putting the record in the group.
You might find it easier to use the static
creatPersonInMyContactsGroup method on the Contacts.People class (or
one of the other static methods there to add an existing Person to the
group, etc).

Re-reading your question, I may not understand exactly what you want to do on second thought. I use the receiver approach to start Services at boot time, I am not sure if you can start an Activity that way or not - but either way you probably don't really want to start an application (meaning Activity) at boot time?

[android-developers] Re: MapActivity Problem --Debugs but won't launch from signed apk.
Hello there,
Thanks for the response.
I debug using the actual device, but you are right. It probably
treats the phone as if it were the emulator in that case.
I've followed the directions and obtained an MD5 fingerprint of my
keystore.
I used the sign-up form and passed it the fingerprint in the form of
XX:XX:XX ... etc.
The form returned an api key, which I actually use in the place of
this:
MyMapView = new MapView
(this,MyApiKeyDerivedFromKeystoreMD5);
Logcat isn't giving me any useful information that might help me
determine the
cause.
-Questions
-How can I trouble shoot my api key to be sure it is not the
root cause of the problem? (i.e. incorrect)
-Does anyone know if there really is a check against the api key that
would prevent the application from launching?
(This would mean that map activities require network access in order
to be launched?)
Thanks again,
Josh Beck

[android-developers] Re: the fastest way to draw on screen
If the image is predrawn, then you can just store it as .png, and then decode it (BitmapFactory) with a preferred config as RGB_565 (see BitmapFactory options). If the image is drawn by your code, and you can create a Bitmap in RGB_565, and use setPixels(int[]), which will down-sample your ints to 565 shorts for you. Either way, the resulting Bitmap will be 565, which should draw very quickly to the screen (assuming no matrix on the canvas, and no alpha or colorFilter or xfermode on the paint).

[android-developers] Re: Weird Map Problem (Controlling same map)
I'm glad that you've found a solution that works for you. Yes, unfortunately while we expect most Android devices to be pretty powerful and have fairly large amounts of memory, they still aren't desktop machines and more careful design and implementation will sometimes be necessary. Cheers, Justin Android Team @ Google On Dec 9, 5:42 pm, mscwd01 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Justin, I too have spent a great deal of time debugging this - with little luck. Thanks for taking the time to explain your findings, it does help to understand what was going on. In the end I chose to redesign my application and use just the one MapView - mainly due to the memory issues. The reason I found myself in this problem was due to the fact I needed a TabHost and a MapView in the same activity. However I found I couldn't extend both a TabActivity and MapActivity in the same Activity so I opted to create my own TabbedMapActivity, created using the Android source code. I explained it all here if you want to see how I achieved this:http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa... Ultimately, I believe you are right, having multiple MapViews will inevitable lead to memory issues regardless of how careful you are to save map states and recycle resources; so I think using just the one MapView is the only answer at this moment in time. Thanks On Dec 9, 11:49 pm, Justin (Google Employee) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Once upon a time I spent a lot of time debugging this issue, so here is what I found. ***WARNING: This information was valid on an internal version of the SDK between M5-RC15 and 0.9 beta, it may no longer be valid, test thoroughly and proceed with caution.*** First, some information about MapView and MapActivity. Each Android process may have multiple MapViews and MapActivitys, but they all manipulate a single MapView backing object. This is because MapViews take a *huge* amount of memory, roughly half of the 16MB allowed to each application. This *also means* you need to be very careful about your memory usage when using MapView. Make sure to use DDMS to analyze memory usage to make sure you don't run out of space. Because a single view backs all map views in an application, you also need to save and restore the map state (including center position and zoom) when your MapActivity subclass pauses/resumes. For the purposes of discussion I will refer to two activities, ActivityAlpha and ActivityBeta, each is a subclass of MapActivity and has a MapView. ActivityAlpha starts ActivityBeta. The user will eventually return to ActivityAlpha either via the 'back' button or ActivityBeta finishing naturally. When ActivityBeta finishes, there are two issues that I believe causes the problem you see: 1) onCreate is not called on the launching ActivityAlpha, onResume is 2) a certain UI focal change doesn't occur Certain initialization of the MapView and various helper entities are done by MapActivity when onCreate is called. When ActivityBeta is launched, onPause is called on ActivityAlpha and the helpers for the MapView are stopped. onResume does some of the restarting, but clearly not all that is necessary. This can be worked around by calling super.onCreate(null) from your onResume or onActivityResult method of your launching MapActivity subclass. ***WARNING***: This is potentially very dangerous, MapActivity may not expect to be abused this way, test thoroughly and proceed with caution. The second issue results in the above hack not quite working. When ActivityBeta finishes, and the above hack is applied, ActivityAlpha is ready to load tiles, but it won't until the MapView is touched so that the MapView checks to see if it needs tiles. So far, I don't have a workaround for this, possibly a programmatic pan or zoom would cause the MapView to load any missing tiles. Some of my previous testing also indicated that any missing tiles would load when ActivityAlpha resumes if you use startActivity() to start ActivityBeta instead of startActivityForResult(). The bottom line is that maps were never designed to have multiple map views in a single application, they're very heavy objects. Hopefully this helps and is still valid information, let me know how it goes.

[android-developers] Clone inner-class Dalvik bug? or Don't do that
Hello. On the G1 Say you have a custom view class. It has an inner-class with some view state. This inner-class references some variables in the outer class. The outer-class instances the inner-class and holds a reference to it. Now, say you clone the inner class reference, and pass the copy to a new instance of the custom view in another activity (so the new view instance can pick up where the previous one left off). In the new activity, new view instance, inner-class view state clone, you find that the this pointer is that of the OLD view parent, and that attempts to access variables in the outer class access variables in the OLD outer class instance. In the debugger, it appears there is an anonymous pointer (Outer-class$0) to the enclosing outer-class that was not cloned / setup properly by the native clone helper and runtime. It still points back to the old outer-class. Not being an Uber Java Wonk(tm), you rewrite your code to not use inner-classes, and all works well. But you decide to write to the list and see if this is maybe a Dalvik bug, or just something you shouldn't try to do in the first place. -- Ward --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

You probably don't have a file at /data/testing.txt.
My code is like that:
FileInputStream _orifile_ =

openFileInput() accepts relative paths only. No leading slashes are

That works, so long as you have read access to whatever it is you're

openFileInput() gives you a storage spot unique to your application in

[android-developers] Re: Getting error when trying to read file : java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: File /data/testing.txt contains a path separator
Ah, that makes sense. What I'm doing with the java.io.File approach is
reading/writing to/from areas on the sd card.

That works, so long as you have read access to whatever it is you're
trying to read. And, so long as you are able to put files wherever it is
you're trying to read them from.
I've noticed in the documentation that openFileInput() is supposed to
be what you use, but I haven't determined if the above is not okay,
and if not, why not. I'm doing this in several places, and it has
never caused a problem.
openFileInput() gives you a storage spot unique to your application in
the on-board flash. It is not for use for, say, accessing /sdcard.

[android-developers] Re: OpenAL
ok, I've searched on the web but can't find a datasheet for the msm7201A which I believe to be the chip in the G1 ? Can you confirm that there is no positional audio in the G1 chipset ?

[android-developers] Re: Clone inner-class Dalvik bug? or Don't do that
Ward- This is not a Dalvik bug. It's a common side-effect of the way Java inner classes work. Not only will your approach not work properly, but it will cause significant memory leaks (the back-trail of outer-class this pointers will prevent the previous Activity from being GC'd). If you don't already have it, I would encourage you to check out Effective Java, which is loaded with tips that can steer you away from situations like this. http://www.amazon.com/Effective-Java-2nd-Joshua-Bloch/dp/0321356683/ Back to your specific problem. The most important rule of thumb is that inner classes should be static whenever possible - this breaks the hidden linkage with the outer class, and makes them more appropriate for moving around. Depending on the complexity of what you're doing, you may also need to break it into two inner classes - one that's static for holding the data-to-be-shared, and one that's not static for doing things with its outer class. There are other solutions, but I would start there. --Andy On Wed, Dec 10, 2008 at 8:20 AM, Ward Willats [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello. On the G1 Say you have a custom view class. It has an inner-class with some view state. This inner-class references some variables in the outer class. The outer-class instances the inner-class and holds a reference to it. Now, say you clone the inner class reference, and pass the copy to a new instance of the custom view in another activity (so the new view instance can pick up where the previous one left off). In the new activity, new view instance, inner-class view state clone, you find that the this pointer is that of the OLD view parent, and that attempts to access variables in the outer class access variables in the OLD outer class instance. In the debugger, it appears there is an anonymous pointer (Outer-class$0) to the enclosing outer-class that was not cloned / setup properly by the native clone helper and runtime. It still points back to the old outer-class. Not being an Uber Java Wonk(tm), you rewrite your code to not use inner-classes, and all works well. But you decide to write to the list and see if this is maybe a Dalvik bug, or just something you shouldn't try to do in the first place. -- Ward --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?
David- This is already supported in both the Email and Gmail apps. Is there a reason that you believed that it wasn't? Here is the raw Javadoc straight from Intent.ACTION_VIEW: /** * Activity Action: Display the data to the user. This is the most common * action performed on data -- it is the generic action you can use on * a piece of data to get the most reasonable thing to occur. For example, * when used on a contacts entry it will view the entry; when used on a * mailto: URI it will bring up a compose window filled with the information * supplied by the URI; when used with a tel: URI it will invoke the * dialer. * pInput: [EMAIL PROTECTED] #getData} is URI from which to retrieve data. * pOutput: nothing. */ So all you have to do is create an intent with the ACTION_VIEW action, a mailto:; scheme in the Uri, and send it.

Thanks for taking the time to explain your findings, it does help to understand what was going on. In the end I chose to redesign my application and use just the one MapView - mainly due to the memory issues. The reason I found myself in this problem was due to the fact I needed a TabHost and a MapView in the same activity. However I found I couldn't extend both a TabActivity and MapActivity in the same Activity so I opted to create my own TabbedMapActivity, created using the Android source code. I explained it all here if you want to see how I achieved this:http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa... Ultimately, I believe you are right, having multiple MapViews will inevitable lead to memory issues regardless of how careful you are to save map states and recycle resources; so I think using just the one MapView is the only answer at this moment in time. Thanks On Dec 9, 11:49 pm, Justin (Google Employee) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Once upon a time I spent a lot of time debugging this issue, so here is what I found. ***WARNING: This information was valid on an internal version of the SDK between M5-RC15 and 0.9 beta, it may no longer be valid, test thoroughly and proceed with caution.*** First, some information about MapView and MapActivity. Each Android process may have multiple MapViews and MapActivitys, but they all manipulate a single MapView backing object. This is because MapViews take a *huge* amount of memory, roughly half of the 16MB allowed to each application. This *also means* you need to be very careful about your memory usage when using MapView. Make sure to use DDMS to analyze memory usage to make sure you don't run out of space. Because a single view backs all map views in an application, you also need to save and restore the map state (including center position and zoom) when your MapActivity subclass pauses/resumes. For the purposes of discussion I will refer to two activities, ActivityAlpha and ActivityBeta, each is a subclass of MapActivity and has a MapView. ActivityAlpha starts ActivityBeta. The user will eventually return to ActivityAlpha either via the 'back' button or ActivityBeta finishing naturally. When ActivityBeta finishes, there are two issues that I believe causes the problem you see: 1) onCreate is not called on the launching ActivityAlpha, onResume is 2) a certain UI focal change doesn't occur Certain initialization of the MapView and various helper entities are done by MapActivity when onCreate is called. When ActivityBeta is launched, onPause is called on ActivityAlpha and the helpers for the MapView are stopped. onResume does some of the restarting, but clearly not all that is necessary. This can be worked around by calling super.onCreate(null) from your onResume or onActivityResult method of your launching MapActivity subclass. ***WARNING***: This is potentially very dangerous, MapActivity may not expect to be abused this way, test thoroughly and proceed with caution. The second issue results in the above hack not quite working. When ActivityBeta finishes, and the above hack is applied, ActivityAlpha is ready to load tiles, but it won't until the MapView is touched so that the MapView checks to see if it needs tiles. So far, I don't have a workaround for this, possibly a programmatic pan or zoom would cause the MapView to load any missing tiles. Some of my previous testing also indicated that any missing tiles would load when ActivityAlpha resumes if you use startActivity() to start ActivityBeta instead of startActivityForResult(). The bottom line is that maps were never designed to have multiple map views in a single application, they're very heavy objects. Hopefully this helps and is still valid information, let me know how it goes.

[android-developers] ExpandableListAdapter Crash
My uses an expandable list adapter. I ran into a problem when I update
the adapter content. Here is the sequence of events:
1) Adapter contains groups A, B, C. Group A and C contain 2 children
2) I update the adapter data (I call notifyDataSetChanged) due to the
fact that Group B is removed by the user
3) If group C was expanded the code crashes in getChildrenCount
because it gets called with a groupPosition which is 3 (the old number
of groups)
@Override
public int getChildrenCount( int groupPosition)
{
if( groupPosition = m_groups.size())
{
Log.e( getChildrenCount, Group index: + groupPosition);
return 0;
}
return m_groups.get(groupPosition).getBuddies().size();
}
If I check that the group position is correct and return 0 for the
children count the problem goes away. Also, if group C was not
collapsed before I removed group B the crash does not occur because
getChildrenCount is not called (makes sense).
It seems to me that the adapter is using the old size of the groups
array to do something with the expanded items. If the last item is
expanded a crash would occur.

[android-developers] Canvas.drawBitmap(int[] colors, ...) creates wrong alpha blending
Hi All, I'm trying to use Canvas.drawBitmap(int[] colors, int offset, int stride, int x, int y, int width, int height, boolean hasAlpha, Paint paint) to draw an integer color array containing an image pixels array in the format of ARGB_ (with alpha channel). This function is provided in SDK 1.0 to draw a color pixel array directly without creating an intermediate Bitmap. However, I found this function does not perform alpha blending at all. The attached picture is the screen shot of my test result. Left screen shot is the correct result if I create a Bitmap from the color array first then draw the created Bitmap. Right screen shot is the wrong result if I draw the color array directly. I noticed in the wrong rendering, all pixels are treated as either completely opaque or completely transparent. if a pixel has a alpha value other than 0xFF or 0x00 (translucent pixel), it will be rendered incorrectly. I hope anyone in Android team can give some suggestions for this issue. I'm currently thinking this is a bug.

mDb.endTransaction();
return nRows 0;
The database is opened for write. The code above executes perfectly;
it even returns the number of rows deleted. However, the rows are
still in the table (even after I exit the app restart, etc.). Am I
missing anything here. The rest of the code is boilerplate and I can
read the data from the tables fine.

Use a smaller image. A 700KB JPEG is fairly massive. Bear in mind that JPEG files have to be decompressed when they get turned into a bitmap. Apparently the uncompressed form of your image exceeds a limit on how big an individual memory allocation can be. Furthermore, a 700KB JPEG has *got* to have a resolution bigger than what the G1 can handle. If you intend to show the whole image via some sort of panning mechanism, consider splitting the image up into discrete tiles, akin to what Google Maps does. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android Training on the Ranch! -- Mar 16-20, 2009 http://www.bignerdranch.com/schedule.shtml --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] startActivity(), Browser, and windows
In an app, I am launching the built-in Browser activity via: startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(http://www.google.com;))); The first time you do this, it starts another window. This doesn't faze me. However, if you back-arrow out of the browser back into my application, and trigger startActivity() again, it creates a third window. Back-arrow and trigger startActivity() again, it creates a fourth window. And so on. I don't mind adding one more window to the Browser, but adding one per startActivity() call seems evil. My guess is that I need to use a FLAG_ACTIVITY_*, or combination of same, with my Intent to stop this behavior. However, I've tried a few, and nothing has worked. Any thoughts?

Lunarlander.java
//native method declaration
native void hello(String name);
static {
System.out.println(libhello.so loaded);
System.load(/data/app/libhello.so);
}
I added my libhellp.so to lunalander.apk and then uploaded the apk to /
data/app. The application launches ok.
2. I added the following code to android application
Lunarlander.java
//native method declaration
native void hello(String name);
static {
System.out.println(libhello.so loaded);
System.load(/data/app/libhello.so);
}
…
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
…
//test loading hello lib and call hello function
LunarLander myLunarLander = new LunarLander();
myLunarLander.hello(Hi there!);
…
}
I added my libhellp.so to lunalander.apk and then uploaded the apk to /
data/app. The application launches was forced to close and the error
message is “The application Lunar lander has stopped unexpectedly.

On the other handJNIis working and Android uses it internally a

add your .so into the apk as a raw resource and extract it into
your

using
System.load(). But this way the .so is stored on your phone in 2
locations, using a lot unnecessary space.
Currently for a real world app on real phones i would'nt
useJNIand
native libs at all due to those problems.
