Re: [android-beginners] Re: New Android Project in Eclipse - Build Target Section Not Selectable
I had similar problems. I believe that if you select the project, then right click, choosing Run As-Run Configuration. Then select the Target tab and make sue that the proper Android Virtual Device is selected. Then click Run. I admit that this seems that it should not be necessary since the Deployment Target Selection Mode is marked as automatic. But hey, I'm new at this too.

[android-beginners] Re: New Android Project in Eclipse - Build Target Section Not Selectable
hey Songmak, I have encountered the same problem too!! After googling this problem, I've found the solution!! What you have to do is: 1. In Eclipse, go to Window-Preferences 2. Select Android on the left, on the right you'll see a box to enter your SDK Location 3. Browse to your Android SDK folder, hit OK and hit Apply If your SDK is downloaded correctly, you should see a list of Target Names Create a new android project now, you should be able to select build targets!! :) Max Sun On 2009年11月4日, 上午9時20分, Songmak kevinve...@gmail.com wrote: Hi- I was finally able to get Android SDK installed on Ubuntu 9.10 but now when I try to create an Android project the build target cannot be selected.

[android-beginners] Re: Getting an error when running the android Hello World tutorial
* When creating AVD's be sure to use more than size 8 MiB (I use 16
MiB) to get you Phone app to run properly.
* On start-up of an Android Project you have 2 errors. Right-Click the
gen-folder and select Build Path. In the new Window Select Android on
left menu and select the AVD appropriate for your project (1.1).
Choose apply and your errors disapear.
* When you run the app - notice you are starting a new Virtual Machine
of a phone (i.e turn on a Mobile Phone) so it takes a while. Be very
patient.
* You get a warning message like Warning once: This application, or a
library it uses, is using NSQuickDrawView, which has been deprecated.
Apps should cease use of QuickDraw and move to Quartz. - but its just
a warning. Application run just as well. Wait for a new SDK to make it
go away :)
Good Luck!

Re: [android-beginners] Re: New Android Project in Eclipse - Build Target Section Not Selectable
I've seen this problem also. However, for me, if I wait a bit the targets
show up. It's almost like something is hitting a network timeout waiting to
populate the list.
As a worst case workaround you could also try creating the project from the
command line ('android create project') and then loading it up in Eclipse.
Not sure how well that will work for all the automagical stuff in Eclipse.

[android-beginners] Positioning images on top of one another
Hello all, I'm very new to android development, and I'm coming from a php/web development background. For my first exercise, I'm trying to draw a gauge face and a needle, and be able to rotate that needle to whatever direction I want (not dynamically, just by changing the angle in code and recompiling) I'm running into a problem that is 2-fold: 1, If I build the layout programmatically using LinearLayout, I can rotate the needle, but I cannot manage to get the needle to sit in the proper position on top of the gauge, in fact, I can't seem to be able to control the position of either image at all. I looked into using AbsoluteLayout, but that is depricated. 2. If I use the xml layout, I can position the gauge and needle exactly where I want them, but I cannot seem to access the needle programmatically to rotate it. I have tried setting android:@+id and using getById, but that doesn't do anything, although it doesn't throw an error either. Does anyone have any tips or references or examples on how to accomplish this seemingly easy task?

[android-beginners] Spinner colors wrong
Hi all,
I am trying to create a Spinner with data extracted from a DB.
This is the code:
private static String[] FROM = {material};
private static int[] TO = {R.id.listitem_name};
...
spn1 = (Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spinner1);
Cursor cur1 = this.dbhelper.getTessuti(this);
spn1.setAdapter(new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.listitem, cur1,
FROM, TO));
The listitem is defined as
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
LinearLayout
xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=wrap_content
TextView
android:id=@+id/listitem_name
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=wrap_content
android:ellipsize=end
android:singleLine=true
android:textSize=20dp
android:padding=6dp
/
/LinearLayout
Tha problem is that both the spinner text and the popup list are greyed
out (grey text on white background, instead of black text).
I don't want to force the color with android:textColor, because someone
could have a black theme (me, on my GalaxoHero-powered Galaxy :) ), but
don't understand why it is greyed.
I could also use standard Android spinner listitems, but I don't
understand what to write in the TO array (in the SimpleCursorAdapter
parameter). I always get blank lines both in the spinner and in the
popup. :(
Thanks for any help!
Bye.

[android-beginners] ADB and Eclipse Losing Contact with Emulator
Hello all, I am having a problem with the emulator (or ADB). I consistently lose connection with the emulator and ADB does not list it as a running device. Eclipse will report back sad result from adb! after trying to install the program. I am running Eclipse Galileo and most AVD's I've tried have been 1.6 although I have tried 2.0, 1.5, 1.1 also. I've added an exception in my firewall, turned the firewall off, and disabled antivirus applications. I've also tried completely uninstalling eclipse (i.e. deleting the folder and redoenloading) and the Android SDK. So far nothing has worked and my development is at a standstill. The only thing I can get to work is to create a new AVD each time I debug the application which is time consuming and requires waiting 10 minutes for the emulator to start up again for every change in code. Any ideas on what I may be able to do would be appreciated. I am very frustrated at this point.

[android-beginners] Android Virtual Device manager freezing upon creation
So I've been doing so basic development with one little hitch that I've run into so far. I would like to make several AVD's in the AVD manager where each virtual device replicates each of the existing released phones with the Android platform for both hardware and software upon the release of the phone. However, every time so far I have specified additional properties other than Abstracted LCD density, the AVD manager freezes on me. I just did it again to me when all I did was also specify SD Card support = true, Device ram size = 256, Resolution = 854 x 480, SD Card size = 16000 MiB, and Abstracted LCD density = 160 in an attempt to make a virtual Verizon Droid device.

[android-beginners] Re: Facing serious problem with static objects
His code as given would crash if initialized to null on activity
change. I think what you mean is to reinitialize the containers which
is what I would suggest trying. Something like this:
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
public static HashMapString, String hMap;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
hMap = new HashMapString, String(); // Recreate container
each time.
...
}
Alternatively he can just call hMap.clear() in onCreate() which will
have much of the same effect. Which approach is better depends on
exactly what he's trying to do.
Another thing to consider is whether these members really want to be
static in the first place.

Hi,
Try initiallizing them to null before the change of activity takes place or
at the start of home activity. Since your application is not closed(scope of
the static objects), the static objects are there in memory allocated to
that process and hence retain the value that you give.

Hi guys, I am facing a problem in my application.
I have a few static arrays and Hashmaps in my app which i fill in when my
Activity starts.Then this activity later launches another Activity. Now
user presses Home button of Back button and again restarts the app, even
then the static objects remain in memory. I beleive this is default android
behaviour.
I have an example app.
package com.cm.test;
import java.util.HashMap;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
public static HashMapString, String hMap = new HashMapString,
String();
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Log.i(***,Hash map size = +hMap.size());
hMap.put(Alok,Alo);
hMap.put(Jitu,Jit);
Log.i(***,Activity onCreate() called);
}
@Override
public void onDestroy()
{
Log.i(***,Activity onDestroy() called);
super.onDestroy();
}
@Override
public void onResume()
{
super.onResume();
Log.i(***,Activity onResume() called);
}
@Override
public void onStop()
{
super.onStop();
Log.i(***,Activity onStop() called);
}
}
Output First time is Size = 0. for 1st launch, Next for every launch ,
HashMap size is 2... If i use ArrayList , the size of ArrayList goes on
increasing.
I dont want this to happen.One thing was that to clear the HashMap in
onDestroy() or in onStop() in case user presses Home button. But my Activity
launches another ListActivity in it. So the alternae option is to clear the
Hashmaps in onDestroy() | onStop() of this activity.
I am not much clear when the Activity exits. From the posts that i have
read i found few things here
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa...
The manifest part android:clearTaskOnLaunch=true does not work in my case.
What do you people suggest in this case?
Thanks,
Alok.

[android-beginners] Re: Getting an error when running the android Hello World tutorial
Hi,
I have the same problem. Also, I could not see any 'Hello, Android'
message. The emulator screen only shows 'A N D R O I D _' and nothing
else. Could you please help me in figuring out the reason for doing
so?
Thanks

[android-beginners] Help with scrollbar in resized LinearLayout
I'm developing my first Android application. I've got it working, in a basic, It compiles, it links, and it even accepts input and doesn't crash, sort of way. I'm seeing a very strange behavior, though, when I deploy it to my DROID (android version 2.0.1). If I start the app with the phone held so that it's in a portrait orientation, there's enough room for all the layout elements and the screen does not have any scrollbars. If I start the app with the phone held so that it's in landscape orientation (slide the keyboard out, or just hold the phone up as if to use the camera) there isn't enough vertical space for all the elements and there's a scrollbar on the right. Now for the mystery: if I start out in portrait mode and then turn the phone over to landscape, the screen gets reoriented but *no scrollbar appears*. Am I missing some callback? Is there something like an orientation changed event that I should listen for and tell the view to redraw? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] MediaPlayer cannot play music file in res/raw folder
Hello,
I am trying to make an app that simply plays an mp3 file when you
click on a button. I've based my code off the API Demos from the
android website, and I've been scouring various Android developer
boards but all the solutions are still resulting in the same problem.
When you click on the button this code should be executed:
private void playAudio(Integer media){
MediaPlayer m = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.b);
m.start();
}
When the program gets executed and I click on the button the program
crashes. All I've been able to determine from the stack trace is
that:
1 - The resource file cannot be found
or
2 - I am not able to open the file descriptor for some reason (it's
compressed?)

[android-beginners] blending layers of Bitmaps
Dear Reader!
Android graphics is new to me and I can't get a solution for this
problem, even though I know the docs very well by now. What I wanna do
is to blend several overlapping bitmaps using a given operation like
xor or multiply. My app has a Spot class which has function to return
a generated Bitmap and a BitmapShader based on the Bitmap, plus an
attribute that stores a PorterDuff.Mode value. Could someone please
explain why the following code doesn't work? All I get is a black
empty screen, but no errors.
parts of the Spot class:
public final Bitmap toBitmap()
{
Bitmap out = Bitmap.createBitmap(width, height,
Bitmap.Config.ARGB_);
out.eraseColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
Canvas layer = new Canvas(out);
RoundRectShape rr = new RoundRectShape(new float[]{2, 2, 2, 2, 2,
2, 2, 2}, null, null);
getPaint().setColor(color);
rr.draw(layer, getPaint());
return out;
}
public BitmapShader getShader()
{
return new BitmapShader(toBitmap(), Shader.TileMode.REPEAT,
Shader.TileMode.REPEAT);
}
...and my main View:
@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas)
{
Bitmap screen = Bitmap.createBitmap(canvas.getWidth(),
canvas.getHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_);
Spot spot;
Paint paint = new Paint();
Canvas spotLayers = new Canvas(screen);
for (int i=0, mi=spots.size(); imi; i++)
{
spot = getSpot(i);
if (i 1)
paint.setShader(new ComposeShader(getSpot(i-1).getShader(),
spot.getShader(), spot.getXferMode()));
else
paint.setShader(spot.getShader());
spotLayers.drawPaint(paint);
}
canvas.drawColor(Color.BLACK);
canvas.drawBitmap(screen, 0, 0, null);
}
I've already browsed through the API examples and all reference pages
related to graphics, but still dunno what's up. Any help would be
great!

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Facing serious problem with static objects
Hi Alok,
if your both activities are from part of a single application
then why don't you simply create a common non-activity class with members as
static and access them from wherever you want.
On Sun, Jan 3, 2010 at 12:17 AM, Coco meli...@superliminal.com wrote:
His code as given would crash if initialized to null on activity
change. I think what you mean is to reinitialize the containers which
is what I would suggest trying. Something like this:
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
public static HashMapString, String hMap;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
hMap = new HashMapString, String(); // Recreate container
each time.
...
}
Alternatively he can just call hMap.clear() in onCreate() which will
have much of the same effect. Which approach is better depends on
exactly what he's trying to do.
Another thing to consider is whether these members really want to be
static in the first place.

Hi,
Try initiallizing them to null before the change of activity takes place
or
at the start of home activity. Since your application is not closed(scope
of
the static objects), the static objects are there in memory allocated to
that process and hence retain the value that you give.

Hi guys, I am facing a problem in my application.
I have a few static arrays and Hashmaps in my app which i fill in when
my
Activity starts.Then this activity later launches another Activity.
Now
user presses Home button of Back button and again restarts the app,
even
then the static objects remain in memory. I beleive this is default
android
behaviour.
I have an example app.
package com.cm.test;
import java.util.HashMap;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
public static HashMapString, String hMap = new HashMapString,
String();
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Log.i(***,Hash map size = +hMap.size());
hMap.put(Alok,Alo);
hMap.put(Jitu,Jit);
Log.i(***,Activity onCreate() called);
}
@Override
public void onDestroy()
{
Log.i(***,Activity onDestroy() called);
super.onDestroy();
}
@Override
public void onResume()
{
super.onResume();
Log.i(***,Activity onResume() called);
}
@Override
public void onStop()
{
super.onStop();
Log.i(***,Activity onStop() called);
}
}
Output First time is Size = 0. for 1st launch, Next for every launch ,
HashMap size is 2... If i use ArrayList , the size of ArrayList goes on
increasing.
I dont want this to happen.One thing was that to clear the HashMap in
onDestroy() or in onStop() in case user presses Home button. But my
Activity
launches another ListActivity in it. So the alternae option is to clear
the
Hashmaps in onDestroy() | onStop() of this activity.
I am not much clear when the Activity exits. From the posts that i have
read i found few things here
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa.
..
The manifest part android:clearTaskOnLaunch=true does not work in my
case.
What do you people suggest in this case?
Thanks,
Alok.

Re: [android-beginners] System wide properties
I would like my app to set a property system wide, something like setprop lox.myapp.enabled=1. I can't find how. There is no way to do that for an SDK application, and this list for assisting developers with the Android SDK. Why I need that? Because I have a sh script that runs at boot from init.rc. It as to check that property to know if it has to run. I thought about setprop but any other way of setting a flag from an android app and have it available from a sh script that runs at boot will do it.

Re: [android-beginners] MediaPlayer cannot play music file in res/raw folder
I'm a bit busy to do a test myself, but on a quick glance this line in
the stacktrace seems interesting:
E/AndroidRuntime( 1425): Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException:
This file can not be opened as a file descriptor; it is probably
compressed
Try converting your mp3 file to a raw .wav format and loading that
from your res/raw directory instead...
If this works, you may find that there is some issue playing
compressed formats directly from the APK file, and that you need to
read them some other way (e.g. copy them to the SD card before
playback). This might also be a bug.

When you click on the button this code should be executed:

I have been trying to create layouts that will work on various device screen sizes. I keep running in to cases where I want to line things up horizontally and have them wrap around if the screen is not wide enough. For example in landscape mode I might have () Radio Button 1 () Radio Button 2 () Radio Button 3 () Radio Button 4() Radio Button 5 () Radio Button 6 but in portrait I would have () Radio Button 1 () Radio Button 2 () Radio Button 3 () Radio Button 4() Radio Button 5 () Radio Button 6 I have the same issues with text view and edit text combinations for a wide screen I would like TextViewEditText for a narrow screen I would like TextView EditText It seems like there should be some way of getting views to wrap around to a new line if there is no room, just like a text string does. I know I can have separate layouts for different screen sizes. I am hoping to find something more elegant.

[android-beginners] Enlarge/Shrink button size with onLongClick
Hi,
I'm going to create a custom keyboard app. One feature is, that an
user can resize the keys.
Currently I'm doing this by firstly creating a button, which can be
resized and letters can be entered. In the second step, the button
should be transformed into a key. Resizing is done by two buttons,
making by onClick the Key-Button bigger and smaller. But i think
it's very annoying to do 20 clicks if you want a 20 times bigger
button.
So i tried to use onLongClick, that if a resize button is pushed and
held, the Key-Button should be resized.
But my problem at the moment is, that the onLongClickListener-method
doesn't work properly. I tried it like this:
zoomin_button.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener(){
public boolean onLongClick(View v){
int height = current_button.getHeight();
int width = current_button.getWidth();
boolean longclick = true;
while(longclick == true){
current_button.setHeight(height+2);
current_button.setWidth(width+2);
}
Toast.makeText(BApp.this, Long Click,
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return true;
}
});
If I do it like this, after a short time I get a message which says:
Activity xy doesn't react.
While I tried it like:
zoomin_button.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener(){
public boolean onLongClick(View v){
int height = current_button.getHeight();
int width = current_button.getWidth();
current_button.setHeight(height+2);
current_button.setWidth(width+2);
Toast.makeText(BApp.this, Long Click,
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return true;
}
});
The Toast shows up but the button isn't resized.
Okai. If you have any suggestion how this can be solved I would be
deeply grateful !
Thanks in advance !

[android-beginners] Databases in Android
I'm currently doing a project which requires a potentially large underlying relational database, and have a couple of queries on how to implement this in Android. Firstly, is it possible to implement composite keys? I have seen methods which suggest that all primary keys in a database must be called '_id' for Android to recognise them, but cannot find anything on if there is more than one key in a table. And secondly, how can I load a pre-created database onto an Android device efficiently? It will only need to be added once on installation, but potentially be updated or have individual entries added by the user. I am currently implementing in API Level 4 (Android 1.6).

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Eclipse Project Dependencies
For the original poster, your eclipse is 1.2.1? That seems wrong.. the latest is 3.5 or later. I am assuming you got that version from the about box or something and perhaps it doesn't show the actually IDE version. Anyway, the way I do this.. quite honestly.. is to NOT depend on the IDE. I instead use my ant build files to handle dependencies. There are several ways you could do this, from using Ant + Ivy, Maven2, or if it's as simple as one project using only one other project, have an ant task in the first project that can drop the built .jar file into the 2nd projects /lib path. You build the first project... first... which will deposit the .jar with the class(es) you need into the path of the second project. My task may be something like: copy toDir=../secondProject/lib file=dist/myjar.jar/ (Forgive me if that is the wrong ant task.. it's been a while since I did this from memory). Now, after you build the first project, you go into the 2nd project properties, and add the second project/lib/*.jar files to the classpath. Since you built the first project, it will see the .jar that project copied over to the second projects lib/ folder. Now.. if you try to add the jar WITHOUT building the project first.. it won't work...which is why you manually build the first project. The down side to this approach is that if you work on both projects frequently, you have to build the first, then the 2nd. If however the first is more a library, that you update from time to time, and the 2nd is the one you are working on daily, it's not too big a deal. An alternative you can do.. is using the 2nd projects properties, you can add the jar file directly from the first project as part of the 2nd projects classpath. I think there is an option that links the first project as a dependency and will then build it for you when you build the 2nd project. HOWEVER, this will only work via the Eclipse build process. IF you use Ant like I do, so that I can free myself of IDE specific dependencies and use a nightly build process on a linux server to build my projects, you'll probably want to stick with doing it all in the ant build.xml file. A third option is to have a master build script that you can then call out to each ant task of each project to build them in the order you want. You basically write a single main build.xml that makes antcall calls to specific projects build.xml files. You can even layer in the copying of the built jars and such from one project to another and so forth. This is manual management of dependencies, but again if you're using small projects, to me I like the control over it and it's really not that much work to do.

You should be able to do a byte stream copy of the data returned
straight to the SD card, something like:
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(new
File(/sdcard/app_example.apk));
InputStream in = myHttpResponse.getEntity().getContent();
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int bufferSize = 0;
while ( (bufferSize = in.read(buffer)) 0 ) {
fos.write(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
}
fos.close();
Obviously you should add some checking code in there; ensure that data
is returned, the content-type is correct, the file is written to
successfully, etc.
Also make sure you have the correct permissions in your
AndroidManifest for writing to the SD card.

Re: [android-beginners] Android Virtual Device manager freezing upon creation
I can't be sure what is causing yours to freeze but I do know these two things: - When I created a large SD card the init of it took a _long_ time. Depending on how long you waited it may not actually be frozen. - You may want to just use the command line to create the AVDs. Check the SDK docs for full details.

[android-beginners] How to play a audio resource on Hero?
These phones are killing me with exceptions while running the same trivial code that works on other phones, in which I play a short mp3 file packed as a raw resource. This is the only MediaPlayer use in my app, so I am sure not exhausting any limits on number of such items. Here is the code that works on most Android phones and not on at least SOME Hero/Eris. What can/should I be doing differently? // often (always?) returns null on Hero/Eris when called from within my app's main activity MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, resId); mp.start(); // this will just crash on a Hero/Eris, as mp will be null // ditto... returns null and I do not know why mp = MediaPlayer.create(getBaseContext(), resId); **I have no Hero or Eris on which to test**, and so further detail is difficult to obtain. I also tried the following code after some other dev opined that Hero/ Eris had trouble playing audio resources. I copy the resource out to a file and then just get another error. mp = new MediaPlayer(); copyResourceToFile(resId, foo.mp3); mp.setDataSource(fname); mp.prepare(); // fails on java.io.IOException: Prepare failed.: status=0x1 Could this be an unsupported codec (it's a 4 second mp3 for crying out loud, exported from Audacity)? Should I try a PCM encoded wav file? I would love some data from those who have actually done this on Hero/ Eris.
