[android-beginners] Re: Get preferences from xml/preferences.xml

2009-05-11 Thread kaloer 

Hi, thank for your help,

I have tried the getBaseContext() method, but I get my application
stops unexpectedly. When I debug, I get a RuntimeExeption before I get
to the SharedPreferences [...] code. This is what the Debug window
says:

DalvikVM[localhost:8609]

  Hi,

  How do I get the preferences from the preferences.xml file? I have
  tried with this code:
  SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences
  (this);

  but it does not work. I think the error is coursed by the use of the
  Context this, because the preferences are set by an other class. How
  can I access this preferences?

  Thank you,

2009-05-11 Thread Cass Surek 

I had to roll back to version 1.1 due to not being able to use the
emulator with sensors, but this works fine for me :


  private void getPrefs(){

 SharedPreferences sharedPref =
PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);

 this.prefsAudioEnabled = sharedPref.getBoolean
(audio_enabled, true);

 }


Placed within the main activity of my application.

What is right before the call to the prefs? That could be the culprit.

Yeah, thank you very much!
It works now. I simply made a method like yours in the main method..
