[android-beginners] Passing object references
I'm a bit confused about passing object references... if we start a service using intents, how can we pass refs between the class where this code sits, and the service?

Re: [android-beginners] Passing object references
Use Intent.putExtra(): http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/reference/android/content/Intent.html#putExtra(java.lang.String, android.os.Bundle) An example can be found here: http://www.agilemedicine.com/medBlog/?tag=putextra Something like this should work for you: Intent i = new Intent(ww.main.LOCATOR_SERVICE); i.putExtra(myObject); context.startService(i); Ensure the class for myObject implements Serializable.

Re: [android-beginners] how to structure my app to run in background
tutorial Android: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=268882243055ref=mf 2010/1/5 Justin Anderson magouyaw...@gmail.com: AFAIK, it is not possible to undermine the Android OS and prevent your program from being closed down if memory gets low. However, to run in the background you would want to take a look at Services. To launch an activity from a service you would use the startActivity() method. As for being notified when certain things occur, you would want to take a look at BroadcastReceiver class. Hope that helps you get started in the right direction. A word to the wise though, provide an option to turn off the background stuff... users get really upset if they can't control stuff like whether an app runs in the background. I have an app, called AppSwipe, that will tell you which programs are running in the background and will let you close them. I routinely check it and close apps that I don't want running and wasting my battery life. And if an app gets too annoying with restarting itself after I close it, I uninstall it no matter how useful or cool it is.

[android-beginners] View-based vs Canvas-based graphics apps
Hi I am totally new to Android so forgive my question if it is so trivial. I read in the Dev Guide about how Graphics are handled in Android apps and it says that developers can either use a View if they want to draw simple graphics that do not need to change dynamically and are not part of a performance-intensive game or draw directly to canvas otherwise. Now almost all of the examples i found in the SDK for graphics use the View metaphor, or SurfaceView. I was wondering how can i perform the second approach, draw to canvas directly.

[android-beginners] Networking / Feeds (newbie level)
I'm currently planning out my first Android app: To start, all it's going to do is display a bunch of images specified by an ATOM or RSS feed in a GridView. The UI part seems to be easy enough because the Gridview is very well documented, and there's even example code to do almost exactly what I want. I'm struggling on the feed parsing side - there's almost no mention of how to do networking tasks in the Android developer's site (I guess that's because all the basic Java networking stuff works on Android). I'm stuck on finding a good way to parse a feed in Android - I'd expect that given the importance of Atom to Google there's probably a really easy way of dealing with Atom and other common Gdata protocols - but I've been searching through the Android docs and I've not found how to do it. Could anybody point me to some docs or examples of any of the following: * Parsing a well-formed RSS or ATOM feed * Querying gdata directly (e.g. Calendar) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] Re: New Android Project in Eclipse - Build Target Section Not Selectable
Hello, I was able to see the build targets in the Preferences screen, but not when creating a new Android project. I am running a little netbook at a resolution of 1024x600. I was able to solve the problem by using a utility to roate my monitor such that it was oriented 90 degrees clockwise - effectively, I changed my resolution to 600 x 1024. I also maximized the New Project window. This allowed the Build Targets field the room to expand. I believe such a utility was made available for Windows XP in Microsoft Power Toys: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/Downloads/powertoys/Xppowertoys.mspx I also saw that the built target list took a few seconds to populate. Be patient. Thank you for the conversation, and I hope this helps. On Jan 2, 11:48 pm, Geo georgeos...@gmail.com wrote: It's very possible it could be the screen res.

Hi,
So I have an app that downloads and displays a list of messages. I
have two main classes that I use
- my own adapter which extends ArrayAdapter to display the list
items in a specific way
- and a mailbox class which has an ArrayList in it amongst other
things
Both of these classes implement Serializable. In my
onSaveInstanceState method, I have the following:
@Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
outState.putSerializable(savedAdapter, m_adapter);
outState.putSerializable(savedMailbox, m_mailbox);
}
I have nothing in my onStart/onResume/onPause/onStop/onDestroy
methods. My onCreate method checks whether inState is null and does
the appropriate thing.
So here is my problem:
When I rotate the screen, onSaveInstanceState() saves the all three
objects, the activity is destroyed, recreated, and onCreate() extracts
them all perfectly. Great.
However, if either press home, or open another app in front of mine
(eg, from the notification bar) then I get the following error:
ERROR/AndroidRuntime(16961): java.lang.RuntimeException: Parcelable
encountered IOException writing serializable object (name = my app
$MessageAdapter)
...
ERROR/AndroidRuntime(16961): Caused by:
java.io.NotSerializableException: my app$3
If I delete the relevant putSerializable line, then I get the same
error for Mailbox.
Why is it behaving in different ways when they are following exactly
the same activity life cycle?
And why would it throw an NotSerializableException at all when both
classes implement serializable and work when I rotate the screen?

Well, I don't have that code anymore, I moved on to trying to create the
bitmaps programmatically. I can do that, but as I stated, I can't for the
life of me, figure out how to position the 2 parts at all or control which
one appears on top of the other. Here's the code I'm trying now:
package com.kgreene.gauge;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.LinearLayout;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.BitmapFactory;
import android.graphics.drawable.BitmapDrawable;
import android.graphics.Matrix;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams;
import android.widget.ImageView.ScaleType;
public class gauge extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
LinearLayout linLayout = new LinearLayout(this);
Bitmap bmSpeedGauge = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(),
R.drawable.speedo);
BitmapDrawable sGauge = new BitmapDrawable(bmSpeedGauge);
ImageView sgView = new ImageView(this);
// set the Drawable on the ImageView
sgView.setImageDrawable(sGauge);
// center the Image
sgView.setScaleType(ScaleType.CENTER);
// load the origial BitMap
Bitmap bmSpeedNeedle = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(),
R.drawable.speed_needle);
int width = bmSpeedNeedle.getWidth();
int height = bmSpeedNeedle.getHeight();
int newWidth = 48;
int newHeight = 212;
// calculate the scale - in this case = 0.4f
float scaleWidth = ((float) newWidth) / width;
float scaleHeight = ((float) newHeight) / height;
// createa matrix for the manipulation
Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
// resize the bit map
matrix.postScale(scaleWidth, scaleHeight);
// rotate the Bitmap
matrix.postRotate(45, 24, 180);
// recreate the new Bitmap
Bitmap rbmSpeedNeedle = Bitmap.createBitmap(bmSpeedNeedle, 0, 0,
width, height, matrix, true);
// make a Drawable from Bitmap to allow to set the BitMap
// to the ImageView, ImageButton or what ever
BitmapDrawable bmd = new BitmapDrawable(rbmSpeedNeedle);
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this);
// set the Drawable on the ImageView
imageView.setImageDrawable(bmd);
// center the Image
imageView.setScaleType(ScaleType.CENTER);
// add sgView to the Layout
linLayout.addView(sgView,
new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
433, 433
)
);
// add ImageView to the Layout
linLayout.addView(imageView,
new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
48, 212
)
);
// set LinearLayout as ContentView
setContentView(linLayout);
}
}
Screenshot: http://kgreene.com/android/gauge.jpg
As you can see, the needle is drawn to the right of the gauge face, and
slightly underneath it.
I realize that I shouldn't expect them to magically appear stacked properly
because I'm not trying to position them at all, and that is part of the
problem. I haven't seen anything that explains how to position or layer
bitmaps at all, aside from very vague references to using linearLayout or
gridLayout. Also note that I'm coming from a web development background, and
this is my first experience with java of any kind. I'm used to being able to
position things exactly where I want them, very easily, with CSS or
javascript.
Basically, I'm looking for the android equivalent of the css properties top,
left and z-index.
Also, if you can point me to an example of number 2 below (creating the
elements in XML and then accessing them programmatically) that would be
great, as that seems to be preferable to creating everything in code.
Thanks,
Keith

Hello, I'm a newbie to Android, and have a newbie question. If I purchase a phone with Android 1.x or 2.0, etc... will I be able to upgrade the OS on the phone to 2.1, 2.X, etc.? Also, I feel perhaps this may be related to all the 'ROM' posts I find on the internet when trying to understand this process better. What exactly are ROMs?

[android-beginners] OpenGL ES Game structure
Hello there, I have some experience with normal views and things for android (I have an app in the market) and I've been programming for a while (Java, C#, made some XNA stuff), but I've never really touched OpenGL until recently. I'm working on my own game engine to make things easier for future games I'm planning on making. The only problem is drawing things on a SurfaceView doesn't seem to get the results I desire (aka, low frame rates with only 10-20 objects on screen). So I'm looking into converting all the graphics part of the engine to OpenGL ES. I cannot for the life of me figure out where to throw the code in though. I followed this guy's tutorials for a bit to get a feel for it: http://www.droidnova.com/android-3d-game-tutorial-part-i,312.html Here's how my engine is structured (without OpenGL): - I have the main activity, which handles built in android menu stuff and then I set the content view to my GameView. - The GameView (SurfaceView) class also has a GameThread that does all the game updates and input/drawing/sound. - Then other stuff like a Sprite/Pawn/Player class etc. I noticed in the OpenGL tutorial I followed that the Renderer runs in its own thread. I haven't had to deal too much with threading yet but I do know that it takes some work for threads to communicate with each other properly etc. Do I need to eliminate the GameThread I had going and throw all the code in a Renderer? I'm kind of stumped. Any help would be appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group. NEW!

[android-beginners] AlarmManager and the PendingIntent that failed
In order to learn how to use the AlarmManager I created an activity
that consists of a single button. When the button is pressed the
activity creates an Intent of itself and loads it into the
AlarmManager 3 seconds in the future before finishing.
So activity opens, user pushes button, activity closes, 3 seconds
later activity opens, repeat.
Problem is instead of opening an activity 3 seconds later I get an
error:
The application [myappname] has stopped unexpectedly. Please try
again.
Here's the code for the button:
thanksButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
setResult(RESULT_OK);
Intent intent = new Intent(myappname.this,
myappnameBroadcastReceiver.class);
PendingIntent appIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast
(myappname.this, 0, intent, 0);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
calendar.add(Calendar.SECOND, 3);
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager)getSystemService
(ALARM_SERVICE);
am.set(AlarmManager.RTC, calendar.getTimeInMillis(),
appIntent);
finish();
}
});
Here's the broadcast receiver:
package com.myappname;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
public class myappnameBroadcastReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
context.startActivity(new Intent(context,
myappname.class));
}
}
-
and here's the lines from the manifest.xml
receiver
android:name=.myappnameBroadcastReceiver
android:process=:remote
/receiver

[android-beginners] Block camera capture on Android
Hi All, Is it possible to write an application to prevent the Android handset from storing the capture picture? My thoughts are a. Hook onto native camera apps and monitor for camera capture (or events). Once there is a capture event, my application will be able to detect and maybe remove the capture picture b. Continously monitor camera capture picture storage. Are there any known i/o api l can use to do this? c. Prevent all writes to the OS. Possible? Thanks for all the feedback in advance!

The initial load happens and the application does what I want it to other than the refresh sluggishness. The code is all exactly the same as specified on the example.

If I use the web browser through 3G to activate my HTML page, I do see
the Hello World.
How could I debug HttpClient or ask it to dump everything ?
Does someone have a clue on what's going on ?
Thanks a lot,

[android-beginners] Android Development Article
As part of my learning curve for Android development, I've written an article on developing an app that can download a content package containing HTML and JPEGs, work with it off-line and keep the content package up-to-date. The articles at - http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AQUNfxUJgskIZGQ1N3hkdzdfMTdkcjhmenhmbQhl=en I'd be grateful for any comments.

[android-beginners] Re: Can't install SDK, HTTPS Error
Stupid Stuff! I got this too, after searching around I realized the settings in the android application are where you need to go. Click the cancel button on the error window. Choose the Settings on the Android SDK and AVD manager. In the Misc section below proxy settings you find the force https flag.Click it, and save and apply the change. Return to Available Packages menu, and refresh. The file will be fetched and the packages will be listed. Choose the ones you want and install selected...Happy droiding.

It mentions forcing an HTTP download in settings but all the settings tab has is a place to enter an HTTP proxy, which I am not using. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] How to make a Widget start an app?
I am trying to do something that MUST be very simple but for the life of me I cannot find the answer. I have a very simple Widget taken from the book Hello, Android! All it does is display the date and time. It works fine. I want to make it respond to a 'click' and start the browser (or any app for that matter). I have spent absolutely ages researching how to do this and I can find no examples on the web. Can any one point me in the right direction, please.

[android-beginners] Eclipse Debugger
Hi I am an experienced Java web developer and have been using Eclipse for about 5 years. I recently thought I'd give Android a go and so I set up Galileo with the Android ADK. I can get the example apps and widgets working no problem but... I cannot get the Eclipse debugger to work at all. I have followed the instructions and let the 'Debug as...' process start the AVD and I have set breakpoints but I can never get the process to stop on a breakpoint. It's very strange. Also, I have Logcat working but quite often that stops showing anything too. Is the ADK buggy? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

[android-beginners] Re: ADB and Eclipse Losing Contact with Emulator
I have bruised myself on this problem, using Eclipse Gandymede. I am using AVD 1.6 at the moment. In my case the sad result appears to be caused by exceptions from my own code, though i suppose one might argue that the tools should be more robust. I needed to read the Reference documentation carefully. For instance, I used wait() on a thread when i meant sleep(). In onPause(), onResume(): make sure to call super.onPause(), super.onResume() Is there a quicker way to diagnose such errors? Please let me know.

I consistently lose connection with the emulator andADBdoes not list it as a running device. Eclipse will report back sadresultfromadb! 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.

ListString feeds = new ArrayListString(10/*messages.size()*/);
String [] path={http://10.200.207.85:8080/android_news.xml,http://
10.200.207.85:8080/rss.xml};
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.notes_list);
fillList();
}
public void fillList()
{
feeds.add(Android_news);
feeds.add(MS-US-Local);
this.setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapterString(this,
R.layout.row,feeds));
}
@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position,
long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
String data = path[position];
//this is where the logic of onclick defined

}
}
