[android-developers] Re: com.google.wireless.gdata
Hi James, do you have the source for your modified gdatarequest and
abstract entity. I'd like to go a tried and tested route or just parse
the RSS manually. Am I right in thinking you've successfully connected
to a google service?
I'm pretty new to Java (c and as3 background) so I hope the questions
make sense?

I've been able to use the 1.0 version of the java gdata api

The code needed utilizes the same apache http client library supported
in the phone. My use is specific to the print or BooksService,
Though I suspect that it would work in other services. Let me know if
you're interested in more information. I noticed more than one
code.google.com project focused at porting the gdata api to Android.
The farthest along I found ishttp://code.google.com/p/android-gdata/.
I'm hesitant to start yet another gdata-porting project -- yet none of
what I found met my requirements. First on my list is using the same
gdata public api. Second is unit tests. Here's one of my integration
tests:
@Test

Exception {
BooksService service = createAuthenticatedCustomService();
VolumeFeed volumeFeed = query(service);
Assert.assertNotNull(volume feed is not null, volumeFeed);
Assert.assertFalse(volume feed has entries,
volumeFeed.getEntries
().isEmpty());
}
private BooksService createAuthenticatedCustomService() throws
AuthenticationException {
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
String serviceName = print;
BooksService service = new BooksService(app name, new
CustomRequestFactory(httpClient),
new CustomAuthTokenFactory(serviceName,
applicationName,

[android-developers] Scroller widget in a WebView
Hello,
I am trying to implement a custom WebView and override OnTouchEvent()
so that a tap near the bottom of the screen would result in the view
smoothly scrolling down one ‘page’ (and a tap at the top would result
in a smooth upward scroll).
I’ve been looking at the Scroller Widget to do the animated scrolling
but can’t seem to figure out how to make it work right. I found an
example of how to use a Scroller to animate a TextView (http://bear-
polka.blogspot.com/2009/01/scrolltextview-scrolling-textview-
for.html), but TextViews have a setScroller() method to attach a
Scroller to that view.
How can you attach and use a Scroller in a View that does not expose a
setScroller() method?
Below is the relevant section of my code:
private Scroller mScroller;
private static final long TAP_THRESHHOLD = 300; //ms
private float mDownY = 0;
private int mHeight = 0;
private int mWidth = 0;
public MyWebView(Context context, ChapterNavigator cn) {
super(context);
mScroller = new Scroller(context);
}
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
Log.v(TAG, onTouchEvent);
final int action = event.getAction();
if (action == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
//Abort scrolling animation if not finished yet
if (!mScroller.isFinished()) {
Log.v(TAG, aborting scroll);
mScroller.abortAnimation();
}
mDownY = event.getY();
}
else if (action == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
//Detect if we had a TAP
if(event.getEventTime() - event.getDownTime() TAP_THRESHHOLD)
{
if(event.getX() mHeight/2 ) {
mScroller.startScroll(0, mDownScrollY, 0, -mHeight, 1000);
}
else {
mScroller.startScroll(0, mDownScrollY, 0, mHeight, 1000);
}
}
}
return true;
}
@Override
protected void onSizeChanged(int w, int h, int ow, int oh) {
super.onSizeChanged(w, h, ow, oh);
mWidth = w;
mHeight = h;
}
I’d greatly appreciate any pointer or suggestion.
Thanks

[android-developers] Re: Make a button from an image (PNG)
Ok, thanks for the replies. I'm going to describe what I'm trying to
do better, because I'm still unsure of the solution, and I could
really use some help.
I have a clock application (how can you attache an image). For each
shaded region I want to place a button on top of it (a different
button depending on some xml data). I don't know how to create a
button from the attached image and then draw it in the correct spot.
My xml data has the time of the shaded region, so I can figure out
what angle to put the button. Below is the relevant code from my
ClockView class. The for loop is looping through each element in an
xml document (which I pass from the activity class).
Java:
public class ClockView extends View {
protected Document clockXML;
public ClockView(Context context) {
super(context);
this.setBackgroundDrawable(getResources().getDrawable
(R.drawable.clockbackgroundwithoutnames));
}
@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
// Clock-size rectangle to draw compliance windows
RectF clockRect = new RectF(86, 6, 394, 314);
// Create a node list containing each reminder
NodeList reminderNodes = this.clockXML.getElementsByTagName
(Reminder);
int reminderLength = reminderNodes.getLength();
// Loop through each reminder drawing compliance windows
for (int i=0; i reminderLength; i++) {
String timeScheduledString = reminderNodes.item
(i).getFirstChild().getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
float timeScheduled = Float.valueOf
(timeScheduledString.trim());
String complianceWindowString = reminderNodes.item
(i).getFirstChild().getNextSibling().getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
float complianceWindow = Float.valueOf
(complianceWindowString.trim());
String administered = reminderNodes.item
(i).getFirstChild().getNextSibling().getNextSibling().getFirstChild
().getNodeValue().trim();
float compStartAngle = -90 + ((timeScheduled*360)/24) -
(complianceWindow*15);
float complianceSweepAngle = (complianceWindow*2)*15;
// If we are in the daytime.
if (compStartAngle 90 compStartAngle = -90) {
// If a reminder is scheduled in the daytime, but
window overlaps into the night.
if ((compStartAngle + complianceSweepAngle) 90)
{
// Compute new angles and sweeps
float startAngle1 = compStartAngle;
float sweepAngle1 = 90 - startAngle1;
// Draw for daytime
canvas.drawArc(clockRect, startAngle1,
sweepAngle1, true, this.amColor);
float sweepAngle2 = complianceSweepAngle -
sweepAngle1;
// Draw for nighttime
canvas.drawArc(clockRect, 90, sweepAngle2,
true, this.pmColor);
// Else, just draw normally.
} else {
canvas.drawArc(clockRect, compStartAngle,
complianceSweepAngle, true, this.amColor);
}
// If we are in the nighttime
} else if (compStartAngle = 90) {
// If a reminder is scheduled in the nighttime,
but window overlaps into the day.
if ((compStartAngle + complianceSweepAngle) 270)
{
// Compute new angles and sweeps
float startAngle2 = compStartAngle;
float sweepAngle3 = 270 - compStartAngle;
// Draw for nighttime
canvas.drawArc(clockRect, startAngle2,
sweepAngle3, true, this.pmColor);
float sweepAngle4 = complianceSweepAngle -
sweepAngle3;
// Draw for daytime
canvas.drawArc(clockRect, 270, sweepAngle4,
true, this.amColor);
// Else, just draw normally.
} else {
canvas.drawArc(clockRect, compStartAngle,
complianceSweepAngle, true, this.pmColor);
}
// If a reminder is scheduled in the early daytime, but
window overlaps into the nighttime (backwards)
} else {
// Compute new angles and sweeps
float startAngle3 = compStartAngle;
float sweepAngle5 = -90 - compStartAngle;
// Draw for nighttime
canvas.drawArc(clockRect, startAngle3,
sweepAngle5, true, this.pmColor);
float sweepAngle6 = complianceSweepAngle -
sweepAngle5;
// Draw for daytime
canvas.drawArc(clockRect, -90, sweepAngle6, true,
this.amColor);
}
// I want to create the buttons here for each

[android-developers] Re: Android Testing with TMobile G1
I have connected a G1 to my development laptop and used eclipse just as I would when using the emulator to automatically deploy apk's and run and test them, and have the logcat readout looks just as per with the emulator. There is at least one difference which I noticed. You do NOT have root access to all folders and files using adb shell, or with the file viewer in DDMS of eclipse. You do have to enable debug over USB or something like that on the phone. I got all the details I needed by searching the development.android.com site. Justin Mike Pastor wrote: Fellow Developers, Has anyone experienced problems with using the TMobile G1 (usa) as a serious Android testing machine? Is it a seamless task to load the G1 phone from your development PC through the USB connection? Are there any special Developer Mode settings that have to be made on the consumer TMobile G1? Does TMobile give us official root access? Does the GPS feature on the TMobile G1 work well? Can the positioning and directions (with voice?) be similar to a Garmin Navigation unit?

Thus, when I animate it from right to left, only a part of the text will be displayed. This happens if I allow a maximum of 1 line in my TextView, because otherwise it makes the TextView have multiple lines. If I make it horizontally scrollable, the same 'chopped-off' behavior is seen. I think this happens because the TextView's parent imposes some restrictions on its size. Is there a way to bypass these restrictions so that the TextView is 'drawn' even if parts of it will be off- screen? If that's not possible, what's an alternative way of implementing this behavior?

[android-developers] Help: ADT and Eclipse integration problem (I think)
Hello all,
I've installed the android SDK, Eclipse and the ADT plugin (got all
the latest versions from the official websites: eclipse 3.4.2 from
which I installed the ADT plugin and SDK 1.1_r1 from google).
I've set the SDK in eclipse and also added it to the PATH environment
variable (I'm running Win XP SP2) and have entered the necessary Run
configurations settings in eclipse.
Yet trying to open each of the sample projects and create a Hello
Android project of my own consistently gets the following error from
eclipse: R cannot be resolved.
I still don't know much about the framework but have read that the
R.java is suppose to be generated automatically. Eclipse suggests
adding an import to android.R, but the tutorial I'm reading seems to
have no such import and even if I add the import the problem persist
as the 'main' class simply isn't there.
I've changed the relevant code so to omit the use of the R class from
this:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
to this:
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText(Hello, Android);
setContentView(tv);
While this did make the aforementioned error go away I still couldn't
run the project since eclipse doesn't seem to work well with the ADT
plugin (that's my guess at least) and the doesn't build the project.
When I Run it I get the following output on the console:
[2009-03-08 09:19:09 - Hello Android] --
[2009-03-08 09:19:09 - Hello Android] Android Launch!
[2009-03-08 09:19:09 - Hello Android] adb is running normally.
[2009-03-08 09:19:09 - Hello Android] Could not find Hello
Android.apk!
The emulatore doesn't start of course. It seems to me like there's a
problem with the ADT and Eclipse so that the projects aren't created
properly (that R.java file is suppose to be created automatically
according to what I've read).
any clues as to what's gone wrong here and how can I fix it?

[android-developers] Performance of multiple threads.
I'm currently designing a game that will be displaying several dice. I would like to know the wisest course of action. The dice will extend View (or SurfaceView), so that each will be able to be touched, etc. My question is should I: A.) Spawn one child thread to draw all of the dice (up to 6). I would do this by writing a class that extends ViewGroup or one of the Layouts and having it create a new thread. Or... B.) should I spawn a new thread for each die? Each die would extend View, or possibly SurfaceView and have its own thread to perform the onDraw() (i.e. the LunarLander example). Which solution would yield better performance/responsiveness? Would up to 6 child threads be necessary, or a detriment? I'm asking because I understand how I would implement the B.) solution already. It closely follows the LunarLander example and I have already implemented another section of the game in the same fashion. Other the other hand, creating up to 6 child threads seems like it may be a bit much on resources. However, I am unsure how I would implement a ViewGroup that does its work in a child thread. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Loading images from SDCard
Hi!
I want to make a image gallery, I want to scan or have a way to get

Cursor object. I have read some examples that suggests to do this:
Uri uri = MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
String[] projection = {
MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails._ID,
MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.IMAGE_ID,
MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.WIDTH,
MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.HEIGHT,
MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.KIND
};
Cursor cursor = managedQuery(uri, projection, null, null, null);
But it does not work yet, when this code is executed, cursor variable
is empty (no objects pointed).
How can I should do this?
Please give me ideas!.

[android-developers] how can I create a 'View' object from a xml file?
Hi,
In the Tab2 of TabActivity in the APIDemo example, it has this method
to create a View object for each tab:
public View createTabContent(String tag) {
final TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText(Content for tab with tag + tag);
return tv;
}
Can you please tell me how can I create a View for each tab from an
xml layout file?
For example:
public View createTabContent(String tag) {
// load the content from 'tab_content.xml' file
// return a View object
}
// tab content.xml looks something like:
LinearLayout
android:orientation=vertical
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=wrap_content
Button android:id=@+id/button
android:text=@string/controls_1_save
android:layout_width=wrap_content
android:layout_height=wrap_content/
/LinearLayout

[android-developers] Re: Performance of multiple threads.
U, I don't want to sound insulting in anyway but being a complete newbie in game programming I can *assure* you you're about to do something fundamentally wrong. Your game only needs 2 threads - the UI (main) thread, and a secondary which runs your game loop. If you are a newbie as well, you'll need to read a couple of books, or at least a dozen of articles on game programming before even thinking of creating your own game.

Seamless roaming is such a new feature provided by the system that enables an app to continuously exchange data with a remote server while the comms stack changes between, say, home network (where data plan is still affordable) and your home WiFi hotspot.

The moment unlock codes started doing the rounds the idea of being bound to an unlimited data contract went out the window.

[android-developers] Why all mails were turned to unread?

When I opened the meeting.ics attachment which includes the meeting detail, it threw an error message and ask me to force close. After the error event, I went back to my INBOX folder, and after a short period, OOPS, all the mails are changed into unread status. Is this a normal behavior? or did I crush my G1?

[android-developers] Re: How to have different types of view in ListActivity/BaseAdapter
so that means if I wish to make a listview of conversation, with some chatbubbles on the right and some on the left, android does not provide support to optimize its display because it expects predictable types for each row?

How am I able to have certain rows with layout inflated from a different XML? The method above seems to assume that all of them will have the same kind of layout. 1. Override getViewTypeCount() to return the distinct number of types of layouts you are using. 2. Override getItemViewType(int position) to return the 0-based index of the type of layout you are going to use for the indicated item in the list. At this point, getView() will only be passed a convertView to be recycled if it is of the proper type. I wish to make the last row a view with a Next/Previous button, and add rows with different layout in the middle of the list. I wouldn't recommend that approach. The getItemViewType() mechanism does not seem to support the notion of row positions changing type. If you make your Next/Previous button a row, that row will need to keep the same position, otherwise the row caching may break. I would recommend putting the next/previous button outside the list. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy)http://commonsware.com Android Training on the Ranch! -- Mar 16-20, 2009http://www.bignerdranch.com/schedule.shtml --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

I would do this by writing a class that extends ViewGroup or one of the Layouts and having it create a new thread. Or... B.) should I spawn a new thread for each die? Each die would extend View, or possibly SurfaceView and have its own thread to perform the onDraw() (i.e. the LunarLander example). Which solution would yield better performance/responsiveness? Would up to 6 child threads be necessary, or a detriment? I'm asking because I understand how I would implement the B.) solution already. It closely follows the LunarLander example and I have already implemented another section of the game in the same fashion. Other the other hand, creating up to 6 child threads seems like it may be a bit much on resources.

[android-developers] Re: (OT) Is the combination of Android Market and Google Checkout a joke?
Actually, in this case I'm going to go ahead and request that we move conversations of this type to android-discuss. Normally, for our other developer products we wouldn't make such a request: anything and everything related to the product is welcome. For instance, discussions about this sort of thing would be fine on, say, the GWT list. The difference with our case, however, is that android-developers is very high-volume, and we do have the luxury of multiple lists. GWT has only one list and (while high volume itself) it doesn't get as many messages as android-developers. So, I'd like to propose that we take discussions of Market to android-discuss, and keep android-developers focused on technical, API-related QA. If we continue to get enough Market-related discussion on android-discuss, it might be an indication that we should create a list just for that. This should help people pick the lists they want to be subscribed to, and get the value they hope for from them.

[android-developers] AlertDialog in Subactivity does not show...
Hi there,
I am facing a problem I cannot solve. Somehow this is frustrating me.
What I want to do is, show an AlertDialog when a user enters an
invalid eMail address:
Button saveButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.save);
saveButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
mUserNameText = (EditText) findViewById
(R.id.enterUserName);
mUserEmailText = (EditText)
findViewById(R.id.enterEmail);
long resultCode;
String userEmail =
mUserEmailText.getText().toString();
if (userEmail.length() 0
userEmail.matches(@.+\\..+)) {
resultCode =
mDbHelper.createUser(mUserNameText.getText().toString
(), userEmail);
} else {
AlertDialog dialog = new
AlertDialog.Builder
(UserCreate.this).create();
dialog.setMessage(Invalid
Email!);
dialog.setButton2(OK, new
Message());
dialog.show();
resultCode = -1l;
}
The problem is that the dialog does't show!
The code is located in my class
public class UserCreate extends Activity { ...}
I also tried AlertDialog.Builder with the same result.
Now I found out that I need a Handler, invoke the Looper and pack it
in a Thread.
But I cannot quite figure out how?!
Any help appreciated.

[android-developers] keyboard layout switching in Android
Hi, I like Android platform a lot. However, one the things, IHMO, Android lacks a lot, is an ability to dynamically switch keyboard layouts. It seem this was not even considered in Andonis design. Is the platform only suppose to serve Latin keyboard layout's users?... Right now, the switch can be implemented by substituting trout- keypad-v3.kcm.bin file with Cyrillic version of the file and replacing it back with out-of-the-box version when English layout is required.

[android-developers] Re: how can I create a 'View' object from a xml file?
Use the static method View.inflate(Context, int, ViewGroup):
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#inflate(android.content.Context,%20int,%20android.view.ViewGroup)
You should be able to use null for the third parameter in this case.

Hi,
In the Tab2 of TabActivity in the APIDemo example, it has this method
to create a View object for each tab:
public View createTabContent(String tag) {
final TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText(Content for tab with tag + tag);

Can you please tell me how can I create a View for each tab from an
xml layout file?
For example:
public View createTabContent(String tag) {
// load the content from 'tab_content.xml' file
// return a View object
}
// tab content.xml looks something like:
LinearLayout

[android-developers] Re: Can I initialize an Array list from data specified in xml resource file?
Taking an example from the Dev Guide - you can do it like this:
http://d.android.com/guide/samples/ApiDemos/res/values/arrays.html
In res/values/arrays.xml:
resources
!-- Used in View/Spinner1.java --
string-array name=colors
itemred/item
itemorange/item
itemyellow/item
itemgreen/item
itemblue/item
itemviolet/item
/string-array
/resources
//java code
Resources res = this.getResources();
String[] arr = res.getStringArray(R.array.colors);
for(int i=0; iarr.length-1; i++) {
Log.i(TEST, arr[i]);
}
So R.array.colors is your reference. You can create an ArrayList and
add this array to it if necessary.

[android-developers] Re: Help using Eclipse to attach to a process on the emulator...
I have no idea what the Device panel in the DDMS pespective means. Maybe I'm completely missing something. In Eclipse I have a Debug tab in one of the windows of what I think is called the Debug perspective. When I run a process via the Run command it appears in that window, I can select processses and threads from there. If I use the Remote Java Application command and point it at port 8700 and use DDMS to switch the process I want to port 8700 then it shows up in the Debug tab and can be debugged normally. Without using DDMS to switch the process to port 8700 it does not appear in the Eclipse Debug tab.

[android-developers] Re: Android 1.1_r1 SDK released and developer.android.com launched
Is there still no word on when we can expect 1.1_r1 for ADP owners and developers? I spent good money to get a Android Dev Phone 1 because I thought that SDK upgrades would be available on ADP1s before they would be available on vendor locked platforms. I could have gotten my phone much cheaper from T-Mobile and would not be 'behind the curve' on developing for a moving target. Also, it seems that Installation instructions leave out the proper way to install the Android Plug-In into Eclipse when you don't have 1.1_r1 as your release level. Much 'strum and drang' would be lifted if ADP1 devices were kept up to the current release level. It seems foolish to NOT test on your device because you can't communicate with it if you upgrade your Eclipse plug- in. Thanks for any good news, please!

[android-developers] How to draw a piece of Bitmap
Hello! I'm creating a simple game for Android and faced with a problem: Idea is to have a huge map image file and re-draw only small part of it (320*480) depending on user actions. I didn't find a better solution than using public static Bitmap createBitmap (Bitmap source, int x, int y, int width, int height) method and decided to try it (expected huge performance degradation), but actually it's appeared that this method changes source bitmap and when i call it second time source size is significantly reduced. For instance this code: int bitHeight = mBackgroundImage.getHeight(); int bitWidth = mBackgroundImage.getWidth(); Bitmap curMap = Bitmap.createBitmap(mBackgroundImage, 0, mY, 320, 480); canvas.drawBitmap(curMap, 0, 0, null); gives 320*960 (initial source image size) size for the first time and 320*455 for the second call I hope this is not a best solution and look forward to hearing a new direction or at least clarification on createBitmap method. p.s i'm not a native english speaker and i apologise for possible mistakes. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
