I'm currently feeling my way in the android framework, and I have
amassed a few questions I can't find the answer to myself. I have
tried IRC, but either my questions are ridiculously stupid or noone
knows the answers...
1. Trying to understand widgets, I tried changing the update frequency
and hijacking the update method, but it doesn't seem like it's
updating at all. I started with the Wiktionary example widget and made
these changes (and these alone):
* In res/xml/widget_word.xml i changed the update frequency line to:
android:updatePeriodMillis="5000"
* In WordWidget.java i added a class variable:
public static Integer i = 0;
* In the buildUpdate method i added it to the output:
i++;
CharSequence errorMessage = (CharSequence)
(context.getText(R.string.widget_error) + i.toString());
It works fine, but only updates when i create new widget. What am i
doing wrong?
2. I can't get debugging to work in Eclipse with widgets. It says the
following:
[2010-02-21 17:39:54 - WiktionarySimple]No Launcher activity found!
[2010-02-21 17:39:54 - WiktionarySimple]The launch will only sync the
application package on the device!
I suspect it doesn't monitor the activity after that, and as such it
doesn't trigger on my breakpoints. Is there a workaround for this?
