I´d created a different package for it, but doing so I can´t access the drawables and layouts placed on /res/layout unless I call them using the default package as prefix. I´d like place the layouts, drawables and other resources used by (and only by) the GUI layer in the package of this layer, but I don´t know how. When I copy an xml layout on the GUI package I can´t access it like a resource. Even if I set the id of a layout placed on /res/layout like this "android:id="@+com.android.gui:id/main_window"" the console shows the error: Adding multiple application package resources; only one is allowed. Use -x to create extended resources. Is there any way for adding resources to a different package of the basic one?

Following on we have secured venture funding worth up to £23 million to launch it as a service. We need a full-time permanent Developer with good Knowledge of Google API and product suite to turn the App Inventor POC into Android native code. Unfortunately we cannot reverse engineer App Inventor to Android so it will mean starting almost from scratch again. The first stage to prototype and field trial start in August and runs for 6 months, followed by the service deployment which we have secured full funding for 3 years. We are happy to have the developer work remotely with regular PC teleconferencing and we will offer UK sponsorship to them after the first 6 months are complete. Good english is essential. If you feel you could do this and you have Android Native code, Google API and developer skills, get in touch. Send me a resume/CV and cover letter to j...@pintrack.com (Jobs @ pintarck) entitled Developer and we will get back in touch. ---------- 2 of 2 ---------- From: Marcin Orlowski <webnet.andr...@gmail.com> Date: Jun 25 12:30PM +0200 Url: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/msg/c324d50e68272e08 > a 6 figure development grant to turn it to a working prototype. > Following on we have secured venture funding worth up to £23 million > to launch it as a service. nigerian economy is getting better and better... ============================================================================= Topic: Can't show AlertDialog Url: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/t/76deda31061f87b5 ============================================================================= ---------- 1 of 1 ---------- From: andrewg_oz <andrew.greg...@gmail.com> Date: Jun 25 03:19AM -0700 Url: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/msg/d84706ba7360fdb8 I must be missing something obvious, but just can't see it.

There's no exceptions, no relevant log messages apart from my own.

Instead, launch two Terminal windows, run adb in each one, and connect specifically to the two distinct emulator instances. Then the two windows should show the logcat output of the two emulators with no mixing. Of course, if you are running Windoze, the OS will call them something else instead of "Terminal windows", but the same thing applies, mutatis mutandis. ============================================================================= Topic: What are your thoughts on this service - activity communication pattern?

ListPopupWindow is non-modal by default and so does dispatch events to other widgets as I want. If I do #setModal(true), the touch events do not get dispatched. However, ListPopupWindow is always modal and it does not have a #setModal method on it. Does this just seem like a missing feature? ============================================================================= Topic: Smart dismissability of ListPopupWindow Url: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/t/7a92d9c99c7441b6 ============================================================================= ---------- 1 of 1 ---------- From: Shri <shri.bo...@gmail.com> Date: Jun 24 03:57PM -0700 Url: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/msg/2e16e7a70380c85b I use the following code to show a popup menu when the user taps an anchor button. final ListPopupWindow popup = new ListPopupWindow(this); anchorButtonView.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View view) { if (!popup.isShowing()) { // This check is not helping popup.show(); } } }); What I would like is that if the user touches the anchor button, the popup gets dismissed. Currently, the popup gets dismissed but is immediately displayed again. I tried using !popup.isShowing() as shown above, but that does not help as the popup is dismissed by the time #onClick is getting called. I also tried using achorButtonView.setOnTouchListener, but the popup is already dismissed when that method is called also. I can use ListPopupWindow#setModal(true) and get the popup to be dismissed. However, now, none of the touches to widgets outside of the popup get dispatched. They only dismiss the popup. You then have to the widget again. What I want is that touches to widgets other than the anchor get dispatched to those widgets, but touches to the anchor do not result in re-displaying the popup. Is there any way to achieve this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
