If you want to run on pre-1.6 platforms, I would suggest putting your medium
density bitmaps in drawable/* instead of drawable-mdpi/*. 1.6 and later
will assume that these are medium density.
Thank you.
2) search ... how does the SEARCH activity get raised for an
application on SDK 1.5 devices (which don't appear to have a hardware
search button.) Do I need to add a menu option and raise SEARCH as a
sub-activity? [Note: I am 100% confused by search button on all
android versions 'cos what I read says SDK 2.0 copes with virtual
buttons, yet those devices (in emulator) seem to have hardware ones.
What am I missing?]
Whether or not there is a search button is really a device thing, and not a
platform version thing. For example, the G1 has a search key on its hard
keyboard, and you can assume there will be devices running 2.0 and later
that don't have a search key. If search is important for your app, you will
want to have another mechanism to get to it -- often a menu item.
Thanks, again, that helped a lot. I've added a menu option (although
I'd love to know how to hide that if I could detect a hardware
button.)
My remaining problem is the search suggestion provider code (which I
took from a 2.0 sample) will compile on SDK 1.5 (I've built a SDK
project to ensure little is hidden by backwards compatibility.)
Anyway, things seem good unless I actually return search suggestions
via a
/**
* The columns we'll include in our search suggestions. There are
others that could be used
* to further customize the suggestions, see the docs in {...@link
SearchManager} for the details
* on additional columns that are supported.
*/
private static final String[] COLUMNS = {
_id, // must include this column
SearchManager.SUGGEST_COLUMN_TEXT_1,
SearchManager.SUGGEST_COLUMN_INTENT_DATA,
};
The generation is here:
MatrixCursor cursor = new MatrixCursor(COLUMNS, 0);
for (String ingredient : matching_ingredients) {
cursor.addRow(new String[] {
ingredient, // _id
ingredient, // text1
ingredient // intent_data (included when
clicking
on item)
});
}
I've tried reading SearchManager documentation, but cannot seem to
track down what columns it is expecting (or not expecting) for SDK 1.5
that causes it to try to get a long when I don't have one.
Unless I comment that out, I get:

[android-developers] Simple Upload Application with Images
I'm baffled - and I'm sure it's something really easy. I'm trying to
create an application that allows the user to select an image from
their device, add some minor details, and upload it to a server.
I'm getting my Image Uri with this:
startActivityForResult(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI),
SELECT_SHOT);
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent
data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == SELECT_SHOT) {
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setData(selectedImage);
intent.setClass(this,Details.class);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}
}
}
The Uri being sent is usually something like this:
content://media/external/images/media/4
No matter what I do - I can't seem to get this Uri into a format that
a File opener will like... I'm currently trying to use this:
java.net.URI juri = new java.net.URI(dataToUploadUri.getEncodedPath
());
FileInputStream fis =this.openFileInput(juri);
Every time I run it I get this error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: File /media/external/images/media/
4 contains a path separator.
Any help would be greatly appreciated - I'm sure I'm just a line or
two of code away. :-)
On a side note - if anyone has a suggested method for uploading files
to a remote server please feel free to share them. :-)
Thanks!
-David

[android-developers] Problem with List view's getCheckedItemPositions() sparse boolean array
(Sorry for re-mailing) Hi guys, I'm facing a problem with the result returned by list view's getCheckedItemPositions() method. This is the scenario: -I'm using a list view in multiple choice mode (list view with checkboxes) - the idea being that a user can select several items and delete them at once. -When the user clicks on the delete button, i use list view's getCheckedItemPositions() method to retrieve the checked item positions and i proceed to delete the items. -This is the tricky part: i begin by checking the number of times i have to delete eg. if the user has checked 3 items, then i'll delete 3 times. - Each time i delete an item, i retrieve the checked item positions - because after every delete the state of the list changes... So what do i expect when i call getCheckedItemPositions() after deleting an item ? i expect the checked item position keys to change to reflect the state of the list... if i'm not wrong eg. - i have a list with 6 items [a, b, c, d, e, f], and the user checks d, e and f , keys 3, 4 and 5 of the checked item positions list will be true - OK - in code, i remove item d at position 3 of my list using the adapter so my list is now [a, b, c, e, f] - at this point i do myList.getCheckedItemPositions() expecting the returned sparse array to be true for keys 3 4 - but this is not the case , instead the checked items are exactly the same as those of the list before deleting any item. I could be missing something here - could someone please clarify this.. ? Thanks in advance, -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Using custom defaults for PreferenceScreen
Hello everyone, I am currently trying to implement a PreferenceActivity for my application that uses custom default values for its preferences instead of the defaults declared in the corresponding preference XML as the defaults are supposed to change dynamically based on certain conditions. However, when I modify the defaults via the Android API after loading the preferences through addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preferences); it already seems to be too late and the individual defaults set via Preference.setDefaultValue do not seem to be taken into consideration when rendering the UI. The cause seems to be that the defaults are read immediately (if necessary) in the Preference.onAttachedToHierarchy callback, which is triggered synchronously within the addPreferencesFromResource call (via PreferenceManager.inflateFromResource). As I would like to avoid re-inventing the wheel I hope there is some possibility to achieve this using the standard Android preference API. Is there any way to trigger a re-evaluation of the values (and default values) associated with a PreferenceScreen hierarchy? I did not yet try whether creating the PreferenceScreen via APIs instead of loading from XML would help, so that could be an option.

[android-developers] Re: Services, Intents and Wakelocks
Hi Dan! I was following the pattern proposed in Mark Murphy's book Advanced Android Development. Unfortuantely it appears that the static variable mechanism for state doesn't work as the BroadcastReceiver can run in a separate DalikVM than the Service, making the static variable instances completely different. This intrigued me: * So, my BroadcastReceiver keeps a static MapLong, WakeLock ofWakeLocksit creates when onReceive is called. It creates a new WakeLock for each call to onReceive, and generates a new unique ID (hence the Long) for each one. The ID is sent as an Extra in the Intent to the Service being fired. The Service, in onStart, creates its own WakeLock, then sends a release wakelock Intent back to the BroadcastReceiver with the same ID. When the BroadcastReceiver gets that returned Intent, it releases the WakeLock stored in the map. This method is a bit more complex than the public static, but does allow the BroadcastReceiver and Service to reside in different processes. Please let me know if this technique is harmful or bad in some way. It seems to work for me. And indeed it does seem to work, but from the documentation: A BroadcastReceiver object is only valid for the duration of the call to onReceive(Context, Intent). Once your code returns from this function, the system considers the object to be finished and no longer active. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver.html This seems to indicate that the fact that the static Map is still in existence between broadcast calls is simply coincidence. Since I can find (or think of) no way to pass a WakeLock to any global or shared location for the BroadcastReceiver and Service both to use, I am stuck figiuring out how to make this work. I need to check more implementations out there and see what other people do. I'm in contact with Mark Murphy about this issue and we're trying to look through a few pattern examples and come up with one of our own.

[android-developers] Extract list for android market?
I'm looking to create a backup/restore application for Android that uses an applications list to basically record what is installed (as opposed to merely saving the installed applications to the SD card on a device). The scope of this application would basically be to install a list of applications. (Those that work with APT packaging on Debian Linux and derived, note that a restore would be the Android equivalent of 'cat list-of-packages | aptitude install'.)

[android-developers] Re: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget
It appears that static members of activity remain allocated and
referenced between consecutive runs of Activity. I can actually draw
the bitmap from the previous launch -- in a new launch (between finish
() calls). It's still there.
So not only is memory of static members not deallocated (which is
actually not surprising), but the static references are still alive,
pointing to the memory, and can be used to invoke the members back.
This last part was surprising to me.
This is actually not bad, as long as developers are aware of it.
Is this Dalvik's feature?
So, my VM budget issue can now be solved by simply creating my
bitmap (declared as static) on top of the activity, outside of onCreate
(); This way, on each new run of the activity, the bitmap is either
created (if memory was deallocated), or simply re-used (if memory is
still there). No need for me to check if the reference points to null,
or not.
Again, not sure if this is the best way of handling this. Any
thoughts?

How come you still have a reference to your bitmap when a new Activity

That confuses me, too, actually. I really want to find out how I made
this happen.
If you have this bitmap somewhere else than within the
Activity, then it's perfectly normal that it's not de-allocated when
the Activity disappears.
What would be an example of somewhere else within the Activity?
In my case, the bitmap reference appears in onCreate(), onDraw(),
onPause(), as well inside an activity method, which is declared as
native and is called from C code.
The null checking, that I posted previously, happens in onCreate().
That is where I learned that I can still refer to the same bitmap from
the previous run.
In addition, if your Activity is not garbage
collected, you probably have a leak somewhere and are holding onto the
Activity object.
I am simply calling this activity via startActivity(). To my
knowledge, I am not holding any references to the activity object.
Some scenario I might be missing here?
Help is appreciated.

I had a similar issue. Calling finish() on Activity does not in
itself deallocate memory allocated in Activity. The reason we notice
this problem with bitmaps is because they are often so large.
Recycling bitmaps did not work for me either.
So, instead, when my Activity starts, and before I create a new
bitmap, I do the following check:
if (bitmap == null) {
bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(width, height,
Bitmap.Config.ARGB_);
} else {
bitmap.eraseColor(0); // just clear pixels
}
This way, I reuse the previously allocated bitmap in a subsequent run
of the Activity. (My Activity only needs one bitmap.)
Not sure if this is the best way to do it, but it works for me.

If my app runs for more then half an hour on the G1 it will fail on

global static strings that are assigned at startup become null.
I have worked around that by throwing up setters around those statics
that also store them as a private preference, and thrown up getters
that read the preference in case of null.
The root cause of all of my issues may be that when I call release on
my MediaRecorder it sometimes hangs. No crash it just never returns,
stalling the thread. I have worked around that by calling release in
a thread that only does that.

When the dialog is closed (positive), the state is converted to a delimited string for persistent storage (which should be fine for just about any preference need). To use the preference, the following xml attributes should be supplied: = android:entries (string array ref) = android:key (for persistence) = android:entryValues (string array ref containing true or false for entries) OR = android:defaultValue (delimited string of numbers E.G: 0;3;5) There's some JavaDoc included, I hope this helps anyone who was in the same boat as I was. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Preference Validation
Hey julius, You will have to extend the EditTextPreference class and override some methods in the underlying EditText (use getEditText()). Best bet would be to make your own key listener, and have it check what the current text in your EditText is. Then in your preference XML (or whatever), you'll have to change your EditTextPreference to com.your.package.ExtendedEditTextPreference.

[android-developers] Camera intent - what's safe to use?
Hi, I'd like to let the user take a picture using the camera, then use it in my app. Ideally I could use the built-in camera app via an intent for this. It looks like there's a range of issues with the camera app though: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1480 is the only reliable option to use the 192x256 memory-only image supplied by the camera intent? The following seems to not work: 1) Asking the camera intent to write a 'full size' image to disk. 2) Writing your own camera app (issues on different devices etc). The Facebook app seems to use the memory-only 192x256 option, probably because that's the only safe option. Anyone else have different opinions / experiences?

[android-developers] Re: Multitouch support in Android 2.0
Coming in on this part of the thread late, but this is incorrect -- you *can* actually test multitouch by plugging in multiple mice. ;) The MT4j framework, built in Java with the use of Processing, does just this: http://createdigitalmotion.com/2009/11/17/multitouch-buffet-quartz-composer-for-touchpads-magic-mouse-mt4j-and-pymt-for-everything-imagined-and-unimagined/ And here's an example built in the Microsoft Multipoint SDK. http://multipointtuio.iamhigham.com/ It should absolutely be possible to build a simple tool that would bridge multiple mouse input to the emulator for testing purposes. It wouldn't be a full-blown replacement for testing on the device, of course, but it couldn't hurt -- and it could be an interesting option for creating a solution that worked both on multitouch-ready Android devices and desktops. ;) Peter On Oct 27, 6:18 pm, RichardC richard.crit...@googlemail.com wrote: You missed the ;) in my reply - sorry was not ment as a serious response.

Basically there are new actions that tell you when additional fingers go down and up, and each MotionEvent you receive allows you to query for the number of pointers in the event as well as the x, y, size, and pressure of each of those points (and the historical data for all those points as well if you want to collect all data since the last motion event you received). So it should be pretty straight-forward. The main thing to watch out for is the difference between the index in the current event for a pointer's data vs. the pointer ID for that pointer: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/MotionEvent.html#... http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/MotionEvent.html#...The pointer ID allows you to keep track of the individual fingers across multiple motion events. For example, if the user touches finger 1, then finger 2, then releases 1, then touches 1 again, you would see: Finger 1 down: MotionEvent ACTION_DOWN with one pointer, whose ID is 0. Finger 2 down: MotionEvent ACTION_POINTER_2_DOWN with two pointers, whose IDs are 0 and 1. Finger 1 up: MotionEvent ACTION_POINTER_1_UP with one pointer, whose ID is 1. Finger 1 down: MotionEvent ACTION_POINTER_1_DOWN with two pointers, whose IDs are 0 and 1. Finger 1 up: MotionEvent ACTION_POINTER_1_UP with one pointer, whose ID is 1. Finger 2 up: MotionEvent ACTION_UP with one pointer, whose ID is 1. (And inspite of what the update documentation says, the API allows for an arbitrary number of fingers, not just 3. I just happened to define convenience constants for the first 3 finger down/up actions, but given their weird naming as seen above and the finger ID mask is actually 255, it is perhaps best just to ignore those constants. :p) On Tue, Oct 27, 2009 at 9:29 AM, Streets Of Boston flyingdutc...@gmail.comwrote: Kind-a burried inside the blog-post on developer.android.com (http:// developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.0-highlights.html), i saw that multi-touchis now supported:

Question is why? Because the SparseBooleanArray returned by myList.getCheckedItemPositions(); is the same before and after deleting from the list.

[android-developers] GMail unread mail count
Hello Forum, most other smart phones display the unread email count as a small number in the lower right hand corner of the email application icon. I like that. After realizing that this is not supported by the GMail app, I started looking around the market for a widget that achieves this. All I found was a commercial widget, which did not satisfy me (the count did not get instantly updated when the unread mail count changed). Therefore I want to develop a widget, which accomplishes exactly that. Many of you probably have more experience in android development than I do, so I would be happy to hear your opinions. I see two ways to realize this: 1) Somehow hook into a content provider of the GMail app and extract the unread mail count directly from there. Unfortunately the GMail app is not part of the SDK and closed source. Therefore I have no idea how to find out about the internal workings of the app and how to extract the unread mail count directly from there. 2) The second approach is much more indirect and has more overhead, but it will work nevertheless. I will let the user provide google username and password and log into the google imap server directly and find out how many unread mail there are. A port of the JavaMail library for the android OS should make this quite simple. The question remains when to update the mail count. What should trigger the update? A periodic time-out? Well, my first idea would be to update it when the widget is first started and then every time a new mail notification comes in. However I don't know whether this is possible. Can I tell my application to react to notifications, which where produced by another application (GMail app in our case) ? I really think there should be a free unread gmail widget, which accomplishes this! I would be happy to receive feedback.

[android-developers] Re: Multitouch support in Android 2.0
Possibly worth adding -- while trying to analyze size is unwise with touchscreens as Dianne rightfully says, what some iPhone platform developers are doing is to determine pressure by analyzing the microphone input. This will work with Android, too (it's an old trick, pre-dating iPhone), especially Android phones. It's a bit tricky to code, and obviously this is more of an expressive thing than it is something you'd consider as fundamental to UI design, but I've tried some experiments that were pretty effective.

That is exactly how the G1 and myTouch screen works -- when two fingers are down, the size is essentially seeing them as a large touch area. So please keep in mind: even the x and y location during multi-touch can be somewhat inaccurate in some various ways, that depend on the exact screen hardware. The size and pressure are already not so accurate and vary in their response with just one finger; for two or more fingers you will see widely different behavior across different screens. As I have said many times before: size and pressure are really not too useful for driving the UI. This goes even more so for multi-touch. You just need to accept that. about the finger limit, do you know if it will be the same for the htc hero when it will receive the 2.1 firmware update? As I said, the framework has no finger limit.

[android-developers] Please help me find documentation on actions for the manifest file
Hi, This has been killing me. I finally found examples around the net for things I wanted to experiment with. I had to go searching cuz I could find this information anywhere in the API Docs. Two things specifically that I'm interested in are: 1) For listening for broadcast SMS messages through a broadcast receiver, I see that you have to defined the action, for the intent in the broadcast receiver element as: receiver android:name=.myClassName intent-filter action android:name= android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED / /intent-filter First, where is that name android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED defined? How am I supposed to track that down in the API Doc? There is no android.provider.Telephony class or package. Second, in the code for receiving the actual broadcast, I see you need to do something like this to get the message(s). Object[] pdus = (Object[]) bundle.get(pdus); Where is it defined that the extra name in the bundle is pdus for SMS messages. 2) OK, similar thing for receiving GMail and Exchange email delivery notifications. First, is there a way to get them via a broadcast receiver? I see code floating around that you need to do something like this instead: contentResolver.registerContentObserver(Uri.parse(content://gmail- ls), true, gmailObserver); Cursor conversations = _contetResolver.query( Uri.parse(content://gmail-ls/ conversations/ + YourEmailAddress, null, null, null, null); And the actual conversation messages will be: Cursor messages = _contetResolver.query(Uri .parse (content://gmail-ls/conversations/ + YourEmailAddress + / + String.valueOf(conversationId) + /messages), null, null, null, null); If this is how you have to do it, then that's fine.

Re: [android-developers] Educating Users
2009/12/9 Wayne Wenthin wa...@fuligin.com Has anyone got a good method to teach users that the Market is a one way street and that I can't reply there. I've tried putting that in the description, wasting valuable text space, I put in in my news button on the game but they still ask for help in the market and leave a low score because they can't figure out how to run the game. ... My first impression is that there's something lacking in your game which is leading people to attempt to contact you by leaving a comment and poor rating. I know a few people will just try and figure things out for themselves, but if you've got people asking the same things over again maybe it needs to be included within the app as a help or FAQ page for users to read. I don't think there's any way you'll be able to educate users, they want it their way or they complain. Just look at all the complaints when facebook refreshes the interface! On the side of this in my week of actually being an android developer I'm noticing a few bits lacking from the developer home page for applications. I'm pretty sure the data is available but not for us. Things I think are missing are: ability to see and respond to users comments what platform/os the application has been installed on ( Why develop for 1.1 if everyone's 1.6 and you want a 1.5 feature? ) install/upgrade stats + graphs. I know this isn't the place to ask for these and maybe there's plans but that's my thoughts so far. Maybe google will come to the rescue and give us access to see and reply to comments so we don't have to keep looking at our apps in the marketplace to see what comments have been made, making it look like we don't care what our users think.

[android-developers] SSL handshake failure when server requests client certificate
Hello, I am trying to authenticate a SSL client via client certificate to the server. Therefore, I extended Apache's ClientCustomSSL.java example by creating a new SSLSocketFactory object with keystore, keystore password and truststore (key- and trustore in bks format). If I run this modified example on my desktop PC I am able to connect to the server and the client sends its certificate to the server. If I use the same code (and same key- and truststore) on the Android emulator, then I get an SSL handshake failure at the point when the server requests the client certificate. On the server side (openssl s_server) I can see that the Android emulator did not return the client certificate. Is there any known issue that an Android client does not send its SSL certificate to the server? Thanks for your help.

[android-developers] Re: Can recognizer use a file for audio input?
Regarding the silly question, not the serious question, I have a data point. I used text-to-speech to output some audio at the same time as a transcription (Voice Recognition) Activity was listening for input. I got a successful transcription but the results were just a little better than random guesses. A lot of the blame probably belongs to the text-to-speech; it would be interesting to see how it would do if the text-to-speech were replaced with recorded speech. But still, it's not going to be a serious solution to anything.
