Hi! I have a problem. I am developing an app where I get some message (html text) and display it in TextView. Comunication is based on JADE and JADE-Android, but problem is not here. I can send and recieve messages OK. I need my TextView to disapear after some time (let say 10s) if there is no new messages recieved. I tried Thread.sleep() but that stops the whole thing and I don't want that. I also tried Handler.postDelayed() and it works to some extent. Problem is, it hides TextView in any case, even if new message is recieved before 10s is over. I need it to hide only if there is no new message. How can I accomplish this?
Thanks for any help! Here is the part of the code that is relevant. In my main Activity, I create method updateText(String) - public void updateText(String text) { t = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1); t.setVisibility(0); t.setText(Html.fromHtml(text)); // textViewHandler.removeCallbacksAndMessages(textViewHandler); textViewHandler.postDelayed(new Runnable() { public void run() { t.setText("Handler"); t.setVisibility(4); } }, 10000); } In another class I call this method, when new message is recieved - public void onMessageReceived(ACLMessage msg) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub MyUpdater up = new MyUpdater(act, msg); handl.post(up); } private class MyUpdater implements Runnable { ACLMessage msg; CaptureActivity act; public MyUpdater(CaptureActivity sm, ACLMessage msg) { this.msg = msg; this.act = sm; } public void run() { act.updateText("<b>**Sporočilo agenta " + msg.getSender().getLocalName() + ":**</b><br/><br/>" + msg.getContent()); } } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
