[android-developers] Details on the load apk and start the app process?
I am trying to follow the process by which the system takes an apk and fires up the associated app. Specifically, I'm trying to find the framework code where it reads the app manifest and acts on the user-requested permissions and instrumentation tag (if it is there). I've can't seem to find the stuff that does this, and am hoping it's right in front of my face somewhere on the web. I've watched logcat to see what seems to happen when an apk is installed from eclipse, and I see a PackageIntentReceiver do some stuff (this is a private class in com.android.settings.applications.ApplicationsState). But the trail gets cold for me in ApplicationsState.addPackage. That might not even be the class that is doing the work I am interested in. tia -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Android test project - are any permissions ignored in favor of the target application?
I have been trying to create an android test where the android test project has permissions that the target application does not. The purpose would be for the test to change various things about the environment as part of testing the application. However, the testing harness/framework seems to ignore any permissions I set in the manifest of the test project. Only the permissions of the target application seem to be in play. My question is whether the permissions on the test project are used for anything. Note - I am using robotium, but I assume that this is not affecting the behavior since it is just a library being used by the android test project. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Hi guys,
For some reason, an activity's onActivityResult method is not being

startActivityForResult to an independent activity. Here is the
relevant code.
in MealsTodayList class:
void createEntry()
{
Intent newMeal = new Intent(this, MealAdder.class);
newMeal.setAction(NEW_MEAL);
newMeal.putExtra(MealDbAdapter.KEY_DATE, todayDate);
startActivityForResult(newMeal, NEW_ENTRY); //NEW_ENTRY=1
}
in MealAdder class:
public void saveNewEntry(View v)
{
Intent mealEntryIntent = new
Intent(this,MealsTodayList.class);
[...]
if (updatedEntry)
{
this.setResult(RESULT_EDIT_OK, mealEntryIntent);
}
else
{
this.setResult(RESULT_OK, mealEntryIntent);
}
finish();
}
In this case, the activity MealAdder is completed once the save button
is called, which calls this method.
Any suggestions would be magnificent. Thanks!

They are rampant: pretty much every layout with an include triggers one, and ineradicable: no amount of re-building, cleaning or even deleting and re-creating the project will make them go away.

Re: [android-developers] Where do you aim for design specs?
ugh. Dealing with this exact same issue myself at the moment (iPhone -- android). The screens link Mark pointed out is great to see what things are out there as of Oct 3 - 90% are apparently Normal/hdpi or Normal/mdpi, so you can set up the avd's to take a look at how things look (or buy all the devices).Not depicted on the list, of course, is the potential increase of Kindle Fires that are to be shipped Nov 15. Amazon has some info on how to configure the emulator for this ( https://developer.amazon.com/help/faq.html#KindleFire which I found via one of Mark's answers on stackoverflow).

That's like saying do I focus on 800x600, 804x567, or 923x725 resolution browser windows first?. The answer is all of them, because you focus on creating a design that incorporates rules for handling resizeable browser windows. Certainly we'll need to work on each of the layout/resource variations (small, medium, large, xlarge, ldpi, mdpi, hpdi, etc, etc) but I'm looking for a reference point to get started. Should we be focusing on the largest for phones, and largest for tablets, with the expectation that we can mostly scale down from each of those to the smaller phone and tablet sizes/resolutions/densities? I wouldn't. On a tactical level, it's almost always easier to scale up than down. Strategically, your first job is to determine what you care about. -small screens, for example, are not terribly popular, so you might elect to skip those in the interests of reducing development effort. See: http://developer.android.com/resources/dashboard/screens.html Your second job is to come up with the big-ticket designs for your UX on the remaining screen sizes. For example, where will you use one fragment per activity in -normal devices and use multiple fragments per activity in -large and/or -xlarge? See: http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/tablets-and-handsets.html Your third job is, within a fragment, to design layouts that can handle the variations in screen size the fragment will be expected to cope with. For some fragments, they will have minor variations in size (e.g., a phone-sized screen on a phone or a phone-sized portion of a tablet screen). For some fragments, they will have much more dramatic variations in size (e.g., a case where you will only ever have the fragment by itself in an activity, or you have an activity sans fragments). Here, your need to teach your GUI designer the basic rules for The Big Three Android layouts: -- use android:layout_weight with LinearLayout -- use android:stretchColumns and android:shrinkColumns with TableLayout -- use all the android:layout_* rules with RelativeLayout, to stipulate what is attached to what (with whitespace therefore implied) Your GUI designer should be able to give you GUI designs that depict these rules. Densities tend to fall out after the basic design is complete. Either stick with a single density for each image (and let Android resample it, with varying degrees of quality and performance) or package in one copy of the image per density (at the cost of a somewhat larger APK). If you have the same image that should appear in different sizes in different screen sizes or layouts, again you will need to decide if you want Android resizing the image (saves development effort at cost of speed/quality) or if you want to package in multiple renditions of the image at different sizes (e.g., icon-standard vs. icon-embiggened) for each relevant density. This would be an approach for a regular app. Games probably come at this from a totally different approach vector, for example. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training in NYC: http://marakana.com/training/android/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: What did you use to create your launcher icon for your app?
thanks folks. I already had the gimp - interesting to hear that others are using it for launcher icons, and it is a powerful thing. I used Asset Studio for some little buttons, actually. It's really slick,imo. I played around with inkscape a little after my original post - I like the fact that it would seem to scale, and this person created a palette relative to the specs for it (http://xebralabs.blogspot.com/2011/04/android-launcher-icons-color-palette.html). I got close to something I might be satisfied with, but my top lighting and drop shadow attempts after trying to mentally map the android specs to the inkscape gui were disappointing. Chris Prewett (Replica Island), the andengine guy (Nicolas Gramlich - Farm Tower), lots of other developers out there and scattered google io talks I've watched, and of course responders here have all pointed at just getting a graphic artist to do it, and I think I'll just do that and focus on the next steps to getting the first app out. thanks again for everyone's comments.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Replay monkey execution
interesting to hear that it's being used to such a degree. It does give me some comfort just to have something bang at the app in case it hits a silly thing I might not have caught. btw, the monkey seems to be particularly fascinated with the ringer volume, for some reason. At least when I run it. On Fri, May 13, 2011 at 4:21 PM, Dianne Hackborn hack...@android.com wrote: The main thing we use monkey for is automated testing for statistical tracking of stability and performance. That is, for a particular build there is a lab that runs multiple monkeys on the build and collects statistics on how many events they were able to perform before failing and what kinds of failures they had. This is aggregated together to get the overall stability of the platform and the most common kinds of failures that are impacting stability. Performing continuous monkey runs allows this information to be aggregated over time to detect if problems are being introduced or stability is being improved. For application unit test, the instrumentation facility is the intended mechanism. This allows you to have much more control within your own application, and because it is running within that app you can avoid much of the impact of other things going on across the rest of the system.

Re: [android-developers] ACTION_UP never seen by app
did you mess with the GestureDetector stuff? it handles some of the
determination of whether something is a scroll or fling, etc..
On Mon, May 23, 2011 at 11:39 PM, Spooky spooky1...@gmail.com wrote:
As determined as I was to solve this without having to ask
for help, I am now officially confused beyond all hope.
I've been digging, and digging, and diggin, through searches and
sample code, trying to find out how to change images (next or
previous) in an ImageView that displays one of many images at a
time with just a swipe of my finger, either to the left (next) or
right (previous). After finding a tutorial that appeared to do
close to what I was looking for, I adapted it, and came up with
the following (indentation trimmed for readability):
// NOTE: This is inside of the ImageView
private float startx = 0;
private float endx = 0;
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
switch (event.getAction()) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
// Remember our initial down event location.
startx = event.getRawX();
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
endx = event.getRawX();
// Handle (next)
if (endx startx)
mCurrentPhotoIndex = (mCurrentPhotoIndex + 1)
% mPhotoIds.length;
// Handle (prev)
if (endx startx) {
mCurrentPhotoIndex = (mCurrentPhotoIndex - 1);
if (mCurrentPhotoIndex 0)
mCurrentPhotoIndex = mPhotoIds.length - 1;
showPhoto(mCurrentPhotoIndex);
break;
}
}
return true;
}
Obviously (well, it is NOW...), this resulted in each minute
touch of the screen advancing (or going backwards) by a seemingly
random number of images...as while I was still moving my finger
across the image, it was constantly seeing more movement, and
that triggered the MotionEvent again, and again, and again, and
again, and ... {ad nauseum}. So I started looking for a way to
tame this monster and get it under control.
After reading more, and verifying something I thought I'd seen
(ACTION_UP), I arrived at this:
// NOTE: This is inside of the ImageView
private float startx = 0;
private float endx = 0;
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
switch (event.getAction()) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
// Remember our initial down event location.
startx = event.getRawX();
return true; // first mod, this was still break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
endx = event.getRawX();
return true; // first mod, this was still break;
// ADDED: wait for ACTION_UP, and THEN handle the event
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
// Handle (next)
if (endx startx)
mCurrentPhotoIndex = (mCurrentPhotoIndex + 1)
% mPhotoIds.length;
// Handle (prev)
if (endx startx) {
mCurrentPhotoIndex = (mCurrentPhotoIndex - 1);
if (mCurrentPhotoIndex 0)
mCurrentPhotoIndex = mPhotoIds.length - 1;
showPhoto(mCurrentPhotoIndex);
return true; // first mod, this was still break;
}
}
return true;
}
Note the comments saying that on the first modification, each
of the return true; statements in the switch statement were
still left as break; ... and later changed to return true;.
It didn't change the behavior, but for the sake of completeness,
I'm including that bit of info.
Only one problem. ACTION_UP is apparently never caught. I even
put in a test that bypasses the two if statements (btw, is there
an else statement? how would I use it?) and advanced the image
index by 10 ... nothing happened. No change.
So at this point, while I'm not happy about not being able to
solve this on my own, I am asking for help.
Later,

Re: [android-developers] Re: How to debug NPE when stack trace does not show any reference to my app code?
that line in 2.2 of ViewGroup.java is if ((child.mViewFlags VISIBILITY_MASK) == VISIBLE || child.getAnimation() != null) so it would imply that one of the child views in the ViewGroup is null. Are you doing stuff with dynamically adding/deleting any views? I'm not sure why it would not know about one getting removed in the first place... SurfaceView is cranking away in its own thread, too, so not sure if something happened because of some weird interaction going on (I was learning first hand about that this past weekend).

Re: [android-developers] Re: Replay monkey execution
When I first read about the monkey runner, I thought I could use it for all kinds of stuff, but after learning a little more I'm not sure you would want to use it for controlled tests (like regression checks, functional tests). Maybe great to throw a bunch of random stuff at your app (and it's fun to watch it go), and it might do something that hits a bug you might never have found cause of the bizarre sequence it went through, but not sure about how much you can do with it.

Re: [android-developers] Transition from solid to transparent
it's not something as simple as an alphaanimation from 1 to 0, is it? or does that not apply in your case?

Re: [android-developers] error when trying to compile project from Learning Android
I'd check for two different jars containing the same class. I didn't get that specific error before about json, but I seem to remember the dalvik message. Not sure if it would help, but I am curious what the entries are of your .classpath file in the project folder.

Re: [android-developers] Re: error when trying to compile project from Learning Android
I don't know. I could way off base. It seems weird if it's an example in the book (but it's a very new book, it looks like). I've only hit weird errors when the same class is in two places. Maybe sometimes you can get lucky and the classloader misses the issue somehow based on other things. You see that the author modified the twitter jarfile and released a different version Apr 3 of the twitter jar (which is a 3rd party thing to him as well) to fix some other issue? http://examples.oreilly.com/0636920010883/README-JTwitter-Library.txt That one still contains the JSONArray, but you might want to try it out... and I'd contact the author, too.

When the user clicks in the cell outside of the button, I should receive the click in OnItemClicked (which will navigate me to another Activity). 3. When the user clicks on the Button in the cell, the Button's onClick() should be executed and some other operation will be performed. 4.

This cannot interfere with the ListViews selector highlighting such that when I use the trackball-DPad to navigate the ListView, the selected cell should be highlighted.

That works in so much as touch-clicks work, but the trackball/ D-pad is broken for clicks. Furthermore, I still haven't been able to figure out how to get the trackball to be able to focus into the Button instead of the entire list view cell. So, no, I would not say I have things working to anywhere near my satisfaction.

[android-developers] progressbar spin counterclockwise?
I was looking into a simple way to get the (small) ProgressBar to spin counterclockwise, and it seems to come down to the class AnimatedRotateDrawable, which looks to be hard-coded to spin clockwise - it sets the angle increment to 360/framesCount, with no apparent option to change the sign of the increment. Most people probably have come to expect that, I guess. A lot about this (public) class AnimatedRotateDrawable seems to be kind of hands-off - two of the attributes are private somehow (framesCount and frameDuration), and I couldn't subclass it in a quick attempt to see about trying to tweak this behavior (not that subclassing would have worked). In my case, if I am showing the spinning progress bar at all (which I don't need to - I think that it's just a nice touch), then I need to be able to flip the direction. Before I get off of this little distraction for the moment, I was wondering if any one else had played with this before. I guess I could just assimilate the class, add assumed-to-be trivial changes for the flip option, and then change the indeterminate drawable on the progressbar in the code, but I was wondering if I'm missing some obviously simpler way. thx -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] progressbar spin counterclockwise?
thanks for the tips, Mark. I'll play with it. It might need to be an animation list or whatever btw - RotateDrawable would be a two-line way to do it (custom little icon seems to get animated fine) to replace the indeterminate drawable, but RotateDrawable seems to insist on rotating clockwise, too... it sets toDegrees to max (fromDegrees, toDegrees), so you can't specify it go from 360 to 0. Dianne - in looking at your note again, I can't tell if you were suggesting that the best thing to do (for someone want to do this in the first place) would be to replace the progress bar functionality wholesale (yes overkill).

Re: [android-developers] progressbar spin counterclockwise?
Diane it does have a public setIndeterminateDrawable - I can set it with a RotateDrawable and it works to spin whatever I want there... which is cool and easy... it just apparently does it clockwise only... I just need to replace it with something that can spin stuff backwards and I need to learn the other stuff anyway.

I'll play with it. It might need to be an animation list or whatever btw - RotateDrawable would be a two-line way to do it (custom little icon seems to get animated fine) to replace the indeterminate drawable, but RotateDrawable seems to insist on rotating clockwise, too... it sets toDegrees to max (fromDegrees, toDegrees), so you can't specify it go from 360 to 0. Dianne - in looking at your note again, I can't tell if you were suggesting that the best thing to do (for someone want to do this in the first place) would be to replace the progress bar functionality wholesale (yes overkill). Of course I want to avoid depending on internals or anything else in the API susceptible to change.

If you try to hack on whatever spinner you happen to get from the platform you are running on to do something different, you will probably fail in one way or another as you encounter a different platform with a different spinner. I can't imagine why you need to have it rotate in the other direction, but if you need something different you should just make your own spinner style that has nothing to do with whatever is in the platform.

Most people probably have come to expect that, I guess. A lot about this (public) class AnimatedRotateDrawable seems to be kind of hands-off - two of the attributes are private somehow (framesCount and frameDuration), and I couldn't subclass it in a quick attempt to see about trying to tweak this behavior (not that subclassing would have worked). In my case, if I am showing the spinning progress bar at all (which I don't need to - I think that it's just a nice touch), then I need to be able to flip the direction.

Re: [android-developers] Re: MessageBox style Preference
I just played with tailoring the preference stuff to add a both a Reset All preference, as well as adding a little Reset button next to the checkbox/whatever for the other preference types, so that you can easily just reset a specific preference, with the Reset being visible only if you're not using the default value. You just need to get a handle on the layout the preference itself is using for the widget area (I think it's android.R.id.widget_frame - at least in 2.2) and you can go to town... there may be reasons not to do it this way, but so far it certainly seems like a comfortable thing from a user-experience perspective.

On 1.x and 2.x, PreferenceActivity is just a ListActivity with a chocolate coating, so you can use your own layout if you want, following the ListActivity rules. Hence, if you want a Reset option without hiding it in the options menu, yet not as a Preference, use a custom layout and a Button. On 3.x, you may be able to use an actual options menu -- presumably, it'll show up in the action bar like any other options menu, meaning you could add it as a toolbar button if you wanted.

[android-developers] Small button that sets something to default - what should it look like?
I'm adding a small additional button to the *Preference things (CheckBox, ColorPicker,Slider) that will set that value to the default. I don't think there's enough room to put the word Default on it.

Re: [android-developers] Small button that sets something to default - what should it look like?
yeah - thx. I guess I was curious about opinions because I hadn't come across something that did not have a word in it - likeReset or something - which isn't very big, I guess and can be readably squeezed onto a small button just as easily as any kind of non-textual image. Some kind of back arrow would probably be interpreted as a navigation action initially (but it's subjective) ... and I think most folks wouldn't know how to interpret a refresh thing, which is what I was also initially considering. Again - I'm thinking of the most blatant thing that is as unambiguous as possible when someone is first seeing the screen, and the word Reset is probably good enough for that for something very small... and Default would be only two more characters anyway or maybe that road sign on approach to Doxford International is the way to go On Thu, Apr 14, 2011 at 10:52 PM, TreKing treking...@gmail.com wrote: On Thu, Apr 14, 2011 at 8:58 PM, B Lyon bradfl...@gmail.com wrote: Do you think that there's some image/icon that most folks might realize means set back default'? http://www.google.com/search?q=reset+iconhl=enprmd=ivnssource=lnmstbm=ischei=r7KnTcLtLo22tgfah4neBwsa=Xoi=mode_linkct=modecd=2ved=0CA4Q_AUoAQbiw=1223bih=1001 - TreKing - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Smooth transition between scroll and fling
On 2.2, I've been playing with onFling to move a custom horizontal-based view (basically a visually infinitely looped marquee-type thing that is based on displaying the appropriate part of a bitmap). I've been using HorizontalScrollView as a reference, and the default implementation of android.widget.Scroller. What I am having trouble with is the transition between a scroll and when the user does the fling. Sometimes it's ok, but sometimes there's too much scroll between the first and second scrolls of the fling - the first scroll of the fling is too small, relative to the general pattern of non-fling scrolls that proceeded it, and to the subsequent scrolls of the fling. This sometimes results in a small jump on the first scroll of the fling that I want to avoid. Now, it's not as simple as the last scroll is what to use for the first fling, because sometimes there may be one or two small scrolls that occur right before the fling is noticed. I could be doing something wrong in putzing with this, so my basic question is should this be a problem that has to be handled in a tedious way - carefully analyzing the most recent scrolls leading up to the fling or whatever - or should it work without having to mess with any of that? thx -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Do folks code against this?
I was playing around with the SharedPreferences thing (2.2 in this case), with the idea of centralizing the definition of the keys so that they could be referenced by both the stuff in preferences.xml for the preference activity and in code via R.string.blah. I'm loading the preferences for the preference activity via addPreferencesFromResource In playing around with this, exploring how to get an xml-defined TextEditPreference to do whatever validation for a number it can do, an int element was inserted for the relevant key into the apps preferences.xml in /data/data/app... Probably because I was envisioning the value as an int, despite the fact that the TextEditPreference was hooked into it, and so I maybe had done a putInt or something (I'm new here). This now apparently completely breaks the inflation of the preference activity via addPreferencesFromResource because the TextEditPreference will only read in string things. Do folks mess with trying to code against this? By that I mean perhaps catching the potential ClassCastException in addPreferencesFromResource and then - I guess - going one-by-one through the keys finding out which one is causing the problem so it can be deleted (and the default value reloaded). I guess this shouldn't happen in general, but the fact that it did for me and so completely hoses the app is a tad unnerving. I mean, what if you had an old putInt somewhere that somehow survived some refactoring somewhere, and then it gets called... Of course, I could be misinterpreting what I've seen so far... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Using bitmap data to copy pixels to a new bitmap
In ActionScript development, there are two classes, Bitmap, and BitmapData. Bitmap uses information from BitmapData to create a Bitmap. Is there an equivalent to BitmapData in the android API? I did some digging and BitmapFactory seems to be the closest, however, I'm facing problems with it. I tried Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.buster); As that was what I was seeing in most of the examples I came across, but it is telling me that the method getResources is undefined. I'm not really sure what is causing this as in another tutorial I did, getResources didn't cause any problems. I'm not looking to simply draw a bitmap to the screen, I want to copy a section of the bitmap and place it on a new bitmap. In ActionScript, the method is bitmapData.copyPixels(), and I'm looking for a similar method in the Android API. The closest thing I could find was copyPixelsToBuffer(), but I'm not really sure if that does what I think it does.
