 I think the point behind RelativeLayout is for you to be placing widgets
 relative to other widgets. You're not doing that here, other than your
 two centering statements.
 
 Except that I am:
   layout_alignParentLeft=true
 and
   android:layout_centerInParent=true

Ah, sorry, missed the alignParentLeft in the first one. Damn allergies 
are making my brain foggy...

 I'm not sure why this is relevant.

Considering you're asking why part of a potentially-overlapping pair of 
widgets is not displayed, I would think the fact they potentially 
overlap might be relevant.

 You seem to have missed the problem entirely.

That's likely. My apologies for wasting your time.

You cannot load files into the WebView from the local filesystem, for

If all you want to do is display an image, I recommend just using the 
ImageView widget.

[android-developers] Start an activity without declaring it in manifest file

2008-09-02 Thread semaka


Hi guys,

I have a project in which I have to start an activity which is not
declared in AndroidManifest.xml. Is that possible to register an
activity dynamically by code? Or is it possible to overwrite the
AndroidManifest.xml from an installed .apk  or to replace it without
reinstalling the .apk on the emulator?

Any help will be highly appreciated.

I did you one better. I wrote up a whole blog post on my diagnostic steps:

http://androidguys.com/2008/09/02/diagnosing-layout-problems/

The upshot is that I fixed the problem with the stacked Upper/Lower 
TextViews, but I can't figure out what's up with the Left Center one. As 
I wrote in the post, it could be a bug, or it could be that 
RelativeLayout is just plain unintuitive to me.

I transcoded the layout into one using pure LinearLayouts at the end, 
which gets you something that is *almost* what you need.

Sorry that I was unable to completely resolve your issue.

[android-developers] Re: Audio cache strategies

2008-09-02 Thread Josh Guilfoyle

This is exactly the sort of problems my application (http://
five.googlecode.com) must contend with, and unfortunately I have came
to the conclusion that for 1.0, Android will simply not be able to
support our type of application.

Their current official recommendation is to work around this by
constructing your own local HTTP server to both stream and cache
(tee) the proxied content. Even ignoring the enormous overhead this
introduces it still won't work. There are yet more problems lurking
in the MediaPlayer which prevent applications which need information
about the buffering heuristics built into the system. For instance,
the MediaPlayer.OnBufferingUpdateListener class can supposedly be used
to detect when the buffer is full (playback has begun), when it
becomes empty again (playback chokes), and everywhere in between so
the application using it can provide essential feedback to the user.

I constructed simple tests which clearly demonstrate that
onBufferUpdate is fired with entirely different metrics that I cannot
understand, but clearly do not represent buffer fill percentage. In
my tests, playback started anywhere from 5% to 25% buffer fill
percentage, though it seemed more like the buffer fill percentage was
total file progress (but not quite). Likewise, the buffer fill
percentage never declines, so it isn't possible to detect when a song
chokes.

Once open sourced, I will be working to fix the broken MediaPlayer so
hopefully I can target a 1.1 release without waiting on Google to fix
this set of classes. Would've been really nice to have a heads up
that maybe the MediaPlayer brokenness from back in M5 was not a top
priority and was unlikely to make it into 1.0.

On Sep 1, 3:05 pm, David Given [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
I'm currently working on a custom audio player app for an online music
site. It has the following main requirements:

a) I need to be able to play music without waiting for it to download.

b) I wish to cache the music locally so that the user's favourite tracks
don't need to be downloaded again.

Currently my strategy is to download the files locally and discard the
oldest ones when I need more space, keeping all the metadata in an
associated SQLite database; but this approach is rather problematic and
very brittle due to having to keep the database and the files in sync,
issues with ensuring that a file isn't removed when something else is
wanting to use it, etc. Not the least of which is that caching entire
files means using up rather a lot of disk space --- some of my music
files can be 15MB+.

Also, MediaPlayer appears to be very picky as to what it plays from: it
insists on playing from a file, or at least a file descriptor, and when
you start playing it measures the length of the file and won't play past
the end point, which is a bit of a problem if you haven't finished
writing it yet. At least 0.9 has fixed the issue where getDuration()
used to calculate the duration of the media based on the physical file
length.

Can anyone suggest any alternative approaches to doing this? What I'd
*really* like to do is to be able to store my entire cache in a single
huge fixed-size file, optionally on the SD card, and stream fragments
directly to MediaPlayer; but I don't think that's possible and Java
would probably be too slow anyway. Alternatively, a block-level cacheing
HTTP proxy would do almost as well. Does Android have one?

Is that on m5 or 0.9? I know there are a lot of bugs that have been

Also, how well does MediaPlayer work streaming off the real internet? Is
the buffering effective?

[android-developers] Re: Easter eggs


It is funny that only Death Star and Island gravity are known to 6
digits while the planets of our solar system only have 2 digit
accuracy.

GRAVITY_DEATH_STAR_I   =3.5303614E-7
GRAVITY_THE_ISLAND =4.815162

There must be some hidden code in there. I guess the first person to
crack that gets a job offered at Google :-)

But if you don't like the shadow just disable it :-):

  Of course, that depends on where The Island is.

 Given the value, I suspect you have the wrong island. At the moment, the
 island matching the listed value is, um, lost.

Now I got it :-) The value is the secret number from lost.

http://www.4815162342.com/
GRAVITY_THE_ISLAND = 4.815162

I have to admit I have not seen the series, so that made recognizing

[android-developers] Re: Audio cache strategies

2008-09-02 Thread Josh Guilfoyle


These tests were against 0.9, and I have complained loudly about it
with any Google engineer that would listen.  The outlook looks bleak
to get these fixes in for 1.0.

Also, in my tests, the MediaPlayer buffers poorly.  It seems to take 2
- 5 seconds to even gear up and make a connection for some reason, and
then it seems to buffer more than is necessary in certain
circumstances.  I'd like to load a simple test up on the HTC Vogue and
see what more I can learn about how 0.9 behaves on real hardware.

 Oh, dear.

  I constructed simple tests which clearly demonstrate that
  onBufferUpdate is fired with entirely different metrics that I cannot
  understand, but clearly do not represent buffer fill percentage.  In
  my tests, playback started anywhere from 5% to 25% buffer fill
  percentage, though it seemed more like the buffer fill percentage was
  total file progress (but not quite).  Likewise, the buffer fill
  percentage never declines, so it isn't possible to detect when a song
  chokes.

 Is that on m5 or 0.9? I know there are a lot of bugs that have been
 fixed in 0.9 (and still some to go...).

 Also, how well does MediaPlayer work streaming off the real internet? Is
 the buffering effective?

  Then I instanciate this class

  dbHelper = new MyDBHelper(launched, Constant.DB_DATABASE_NAME,

  Constant.DB_VERSION);

  Now comes the issue, I'd like to execute a SQL request to my DB :
  myDB = dbHelper.getWritableDatabase();
  myDB.execSQL(DELETE FROM  + Constant.DB_TABLE_STATIONS

[android-developers] Re: RelativeLayout in ListView item

2008-09-02 Thread Spencer Riddering


Hi Mark,

Thanks, I really like your post.

I actually started out using LinearLayout but I ran into the same
centering problem that you ended your post on. It was my obsession
with centering Upper and Lower horizontally across the entire list
item that drove me to RelativeLayout.

I've finally achieved the layout I was looking for, but I had to use
FrameLayout to do it. See below. I'm thinking that TableLayout may
also be suitable but I haven't had time to try it out.

Spencer Riddering

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
FrameLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/

 android:layout_height=wrap_content

 I did you one better. I wrote up a whole blog post on my diagnostic steps:

 http://androidguys.com/2008/09/02/diagnosing-layout-problems/

 The upshot is that I fixed the problem with the stacked Upper/Lower
 TextViews, but I can't figure out what's up with the Left Center one. As
 I wrote in the post, it could be a bug, or it could be that
 RelativeLayout is just plain unintuitive to me.

 I transcoded the layout into one using pure LinearLayouts at the end,
 which gets you something that is *almost* what you need.

 Sorry that I was unable to completely resolve your issue.

   Before I was creating and then opening a database.

   In teh doc I read I saw that now I need to create a class that
   inheriths from SQLiteOpenHelper.

   This is what I have done (anonymous class inside a new one) :
   --
   class MyDBHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {

   public MyDBHelper(Context context, String name,
   CursorFactory
   factory, int version) {
   super(context, name, factory, version);

   public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int
   newVersion) {
   return;
   }

   }

   

   Then I instanciate this class

   dbHelper = new MyDBHelper(launched, Constant.DB_DATABASE_NAME,
   null,
   Constant.DB_VERSION);

   -

   Now comes the issue, I'd like to execute a SQL request to my DB :
   myDB = dbHelper.getWritableDatabase();
   myDB.execSQL(DELETE FROM  + Constant.DB_TABLE_STATIONS
   +
WHERE  + Constant.DB_FIELD_S_NETWORK + =' + network + ';);

   And I have this error ?

   Do you have an idea of the origin ??

As mark has said, nope, its not possible. The manifest registers your
application with the system. This is the only way the system becomes
aware of executable targets.

[android-developers] Setting highlight text color (textColorHighlight doesn't do it)

2008-09-02 Thread Andrew Dupont


Despite its name, the global textColorHighlight attribute controls
the color of the highlight itself, rather than the highlighted text.
So if I've got gray text and a dark blue highlight color, it appears
as gray on blue, and I can't make the selected text white on blue no
matter what I try. None of the inverse text color styles work for
this. Any ideas?

Cheers,
Andrew Dupont

[android-developers] Re: MediaRecord Audio - working example? / raw data stream onPictureTaken()? / Bug in Pictures application?

 Please refer to the audio Recording sample code at the link below:

 Did you get the Audio recording managed right now?

 I'm getting the same error again after adding all the fields. It would
 be pretty nice to have a working example. Because from the docs I
 can't decide which fields are required and which are just optional.

[android-developers] Re: getScale replacement for BaseAdapter in 0.9 beta?

Hi Romain Guy,
How would I go about doing this? I'd really like to enable two pieces
of functionality that were removed in the 0.9 Beta, a smaller scale
for the not-in-focus images, and the ability to automatically loop
(and rotate through) the gallery. Alpha on the edges would be nice,
but I can live without that...

Any chance we could get a code sample on what you suggest?

[android-developers] Re: Using the ItemizedOverlay and OverlayItem

2008-09-02 Thread Cretin45


I got the shadow to draw properly by calling
boundCenterBottom(Drawable);

@Override
public void draw(Canvas arg0, MapView arg1, boolean arg2) {
super.draw(arg0, arg1, arg2);
MyItemizedOverlay.boundCenterBottom(defaultMarker);
}

Not sure if this is the right way. But, it is working.

Hi,

Just override the method getChildStaticTransformation() in ViewGroup
and for the given child, set the transformation to a smaller scale.
Then in your constructors, make sure you set the flag
FLAG_SUPPORT_STATIC_TRANSFORMATIONS in mGroupFlags:

mGroupFlags |= FLAG_SUPPORT_STATIC_TRANSFORMATIONS;

 (It only does not crash when it is used on an audio file, in which

 Also, in my tests, the MediaPlayer buffers poorly.  It seems to take 2
 - 5 seconds to even gear up and make a connection for some reason, and
 then it seems to buffer more than is necessary in certain
 circumstances.  I'd like to load a simple test up on the HTC Vogue and
 see what more I can learn about how 0.9 behaves on real hardware.

Well, with much trepidation I've ripped out all my cacheing code and am
now using pure streaming --- and it all works far better! I'm not seeing
any of the buffering problems, and it all seems to be quite snappy, even
when seeking beyond the buffer limits.

However, I completely agree about the onBufferUpdate() parameter ---
it's completely useless. I think it's showing me the high-water-mark of
the buffer. Without the matching low-water-mark, I can't doing anything
useful with it. onSeekComplete() seems to be a bit questionable, too, as
when I get events seems completely unrelated to whether it's actually
finished buffering or not.

I also notice that streaming Ogg Vorbis files fails with, yes, another
undocumented error code --- is this known to not work?

[android-developers] Re: Port JSON client to SDK 0.9


Hi everybody!

I finally was able to call the web service i wanted from my
application, i have a problem now.

The String i get from the response method is removing my xml tags. I
get Strings like the following:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
string xmlns=http://tempuri.org/;lt;STKDVgt;lt;TABLEDEF
NAME=authorsgt;

Instead of:

  ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8 ?
  string xmlns=http://tempuri.org/;STKDVTABLEDEF NAME=authors

Does anyboydy knows hows to aviod this or why is this happening? if i
call the web service from ksoap this doesnt happens but my ksoap
project doest work since the new SDK.

Any help that you could give me will be appreciated.

Thanks


Francisco Ortega

 Do you have any idea why this could be happening? My web service

   Do you have any idea what could it be?

  Do you have the INTERNET permission in your AndroidManifest.xml? I think
  that, er, manifests as this error.

  uses-permission android:name=android.permission.INTERNET /

[android-developers] Mock Location Provider [SOLVED]


I just posted some code at 
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/web/mock_provider.zip
that implements a mock location provider. This runs entirely in the
emulator, so it should work across all platforms. It allows you to
specify a set of coordinates and will the just loop through them
forever. This could easily be adapted to read data from a file, URL,
etc. As Stefan points out on 
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_frm/thread/2b71c14f34dd8788
, its important to set the time value on the Location you pass to the
location service. If a new Location has the same time value as the
previous one the LocationManager received, the location won't be
updated.

You should be able to compile this, install it on the emulator, run
it, and then see the location change in Maps application.

Hopefully this puts it all together and resolves issues that many have
been encountering.

Cheers,
Justin
