[android-developers] Returning from HTTP Intent.ACTION_VIEW
I have an application that needs to have a user visit a web page to authorize it. After spending time in the Browser the user should return the my application. Currently, I'm launching the Browser with: Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url.toString())); i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); startActivity(i); After using the browser, I can go back home and launch my application, which stacks a new Activity on top of the previous stack of Activities that were being used in the application. For example. If the user launches the app, they have Activity A in the stack. From there we navigate to Activity B which then launches the Browser. Then, the next time we enter the app, we launch Activity A, which is pushed onto the stack that already contains an A and B. My question is then, how can I just go back to the previous stack? Basically, do I have to create a new Activity? Is there a better way to launch the Browser, and then come back to my application? Also, I've been using the Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK when I start the Browser activity so that my app stays running. Is this a good way to go about solving this problem?

[android-developers] Re: how to get the current matrix mode?
Thomas, I just tested this using the glGetIntegerv method that takes an int array instead of a Buffer. It also returned 0 for me. So I dug into the source and found that the implementation of glGetIntegerv doesn't have a case for GL_MATRIX_MODE. And it sets the GL error to GL_INVALID_ENUM (1280). And sure enough, 1280 is returned by a call to glGetError right after the call to glGetIntegerv. So it looks like you can't get the GL_MATRIX_MODE that way on Android. And upon further looking through the code I don't see anywhere that the matrixMode state variable is accessed. So I doubt that you'll have any luck getting it from the java API. If you control all of your OpenGL code you can work around this by using a wrapper to change GL state. It's not ideal, but it should work. That wrapper class could then be queried for the current matrix mode. -Anton On Mar 23, 7:39 am, tcassany tcass...@betomorrow.com wrote: Hello, I just would to know how can I get the currentmatrixmode.

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake coming in April? Where is the SDK?
I just hope that this time the release date for the official SDK will be BEFORE the update hits the masses. Not like it was with the 1.1SDK - it was released way after 1.1 was released to end-users (the argument from Google was something in the lines of Hey, this is a small release with no mayor changes so don't whine that you get it so late). Maybe I'm the only one who thinks that this is ridiculous.. One of the reasons why we don't have the official 1.5 (or cupcake or however it will be officially called) SDK is that It's not stable enough - fair enough but I really hope that you guys @ Google will release it as soon as the code is stable enough (eg the code is tested and ready to be released to the operators). That would give us a week (maybe more) before the operators push it to the end-users. And don't come with the you can build your own SDK from the opensource tree if you want - the last releases didn't come from the opensource tree so even if I wanted, i couldn't build the SDK based on the code that's shipped to the end-users. And even if this release will actually come from the public tree, you can't expect all app developers to build their own SDK, can you? We need an official SDK - and we need it as soon as the tree is stable enough (and way before it's pushed to the carriers/end-users) Tauno On Tue, Mar 24, 2009 at 2:38 AM, AndroidApp zl25dre...@gmail.com wrote: Not if you stay anonymous (hint, hint) ;-) On Mar 23, 7:58 pm, Anonymous Anonymous firewallbr...@googlemail.com wrote: Someone from Google? makes it official i guess :D On Tue, Mar 24, 2009 at 12:47 AM, AndroidApp zl25dre...@gmail.com wrote: Can someone capable just compile the SDK and post it online for everyone?

[android-developers] Re: how to color key 2d sprite backgound?
A very interesting idea :) although I have my doubts that drawing with AvoidXfermode is not slower then drawing with alpha. Especially when drawing the complete background in this mode. If I have the time I certainly would like to try it. I now have the alpha issue working using the solution above. Cheers On Mar 23, 3:35 am, Sarnoth jesse.st...@gmail.com wrote: I have been frustrated by the lack of support for sprites, but I came up with an idea that is backwards (literally) but might work. I haven't tested it to make sure it works as expected or to evaluate its speed. If you try it yourself I would be interested in the results. Use the same key color for all of your sprites. To draw a frame, clear the canvas to the key color. Then draw each sprite starting with the front most and ending with the back most, and finally draw the background image. When drawing use AvoidXfermode with opColor set to your key color, tolerance set to 0, and mode set to TARGET. Drawing bitmaps of format 565 (no alpha channel) is by far the fastest way to draw, so hopefully drawing color keyed bitmaps of this type will produce nice results.

Maybe I didn't make myself clear enough about the problems I run into. It's really simple actually: I have a ListActivity, and in the list that is hosted by this activity I render list items using a custom RelativeLayout. Nothing fancy at all. Now, of course I want those items to be selectable and clickable by the user. And that doesn't work. The user has to scroll to an item first using the dpad/trackball to focus it, and only then is able to click it. I want the item to be directly pressable, however, using a touch motion. But that event never reaches the list view, and thus onListItemClick() is not called. It seems that for some reason, my list items consume all touch gestures before they are able to propagate up to the view and be able to be interpreted as a click. But that's just a wild guess.

[android-developers] android:ellipsize for multi-line text?
Hi, I noticed that android:ellipsize will always ellipsize a single line as soon as it doesn't fit the width of a TextView. That makes no sense however for multi-line TextViews, since you will then get something like this: some very long tex... this line fits. this one does not f... you get the idea. What I want instead is this: some very long text. this line fits. this one does not f... the ellipsis should always be at the end of the *text*, not at the end of the current line. Is this possible with Android or do I have to write something myself (which I am not particularly eager to do to be honest)?

[android-developers] Bundles and serializable objects - what is actually stored?
Hi, I was wondering about the behavior of Bundles and serializable objects. If I put a serializable object into a bundle, what is serialized then, the reference to the object or the object itself? I always assumed that the object itself would be serialized to a byte stream when calling putExtra() and re-created from that representation when calling getSerializableExtra(), but I recently stumbled upon a piece of code that put an entire view into a Bundle in thread A, retrieved it from that bundle in thread B, performed a modification on it and this modification actually became visible. This can only happen if the reference to that view was stored, not the view itself, right? Otherwise, the modification had been applied to a copy of that view and would be meaningless. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

I do need to more formally write this up at some point, but I do not have anything immediately handy. The gist of it is that you create your adapter and set it up, in getView() or newView()/bindView() (depending on adapter choice), to see if the thumbnail has been downloaded. If so, use it for the list row being inflated/updated; if not, leave the ImageView in the row pointing to some placeholder Drawable resource. This means as the user scrolls, she will pick up the thumbnails. Also, at the end, you can quickly iterate over the rows (ListView is a ViewGroup, IIRC, so there are methods to iterate its children) and ensure each of those rows' ImageViews are using their associated thumbnails. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books.html --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

T-Mobile is a mobile carrier. and that tmo pulls the public source at random points in time, adds dream specific bits and releases it to end-users? HTC pulls source at whatever time schedule they deem appropriate. HTC engineers are working on the code constantly and can make their own decisions vis a vis their product lines. Neither you nor I, nor possibly Google, is in position to tell HTC what they can or cannot do. Now, if HTC is sensible, they will primarily stick to major releases plus milestone bug fix updates, but that's not something you should be relying upon. You do realize that all releases till today have come from a closed source project and not AOSP? HTC may have access to a private *repository*, but AFAIK, the bits are still open source. Open source is a matter of licensing, not a statement of public collaborative development. (Even if Google doesn't actually push the code/release to tmo, they certainly do tell tmo (and other carriers) when the code in the repo is stable enough so they can pull and release. I certainly would hope so. What I'm asking for, is that at this point in time (eg Google has designated the code as stable enough to release) we get an official SDK - is that too much to ask?) Of course it is. A point in time is infinitesimally short. Assuming you were being loose with your terms, how long would you consider a point in time to be? A second? A minute? An hour? A day? A week? A month? A year? Let us suppose that they tag whatever repository HTC works from for each major release. Once they tag the firmware release -- in effect, designating the code as stable enough to release -- they still need to build, test, fix, package, and release the SDK. That will take some time, even if they have been doing some of that work along the way, because up until now, the firmware has been a moving target, and the apps that ship with the firmware are not built on the SDK. For example, they may not test on Windows routinely due to the hassles involved in building the Windows version of the SDK. Should that take months? No. Might it take weeks? Possibly, depending on what is all involved and how many people are doing the work. Now, the *right* answer is for this to be a true public collaborative development project, so nightly builds of emulator images and corresponding SDKs are available, so we can apply tinderbox and smoke testing sessions and the like. In time, we should be able to cut the time between tagging the final shipping firmware and releasing the corresponding SDK with emulator images to be hours, not weeks. And perhaps it's at that level already, and I just haven't seen it since we haven't had all that many releases yet. But this still does not prevent hardware manufacturers from doing what they want. As evidenced by pre-N wireless routers, hardware manufacturers are not necessarily constrained by what would seem to be common sense to us out here. They'll do what they do. So if a device (e.g., G2) contains bits of cupcake in advance of an official cupcake-based release shipping, that was the manufacturer's decision. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 2.0 Available! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Now, if HTC is sensible, they will primarily stick to major releases plus milestone bug fix updates, but that's not something you should be relying upon. That would be those things everyone is asking about. When is the milestone and major release for Android? After someone has already shipped a closed source version off the secret tree? All the its not us crap breaks down when you accept that the changes that become 1.1 (and 1.5 and beyond) go into the open tree AFTER they go to the closed trees, and in many cases after they go to an actual released product... You do realize that all releases till today have come from a closed source project and not AOSP? HTC may have access to a private *repository*, but AFAIK, the bits are still open source. Open source is a matter of licensing, not a statement of public collaborative development. Its not accessible to anyone else, thereby making it closed. Thats the beauty of apache, you can have it both ways if you wish hard enough and wave enough marketing material around. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] ClassLoader.isAncestorOf(ClassLoader) Bug
Hello All,
Please someone from Google to comment this issue!
My colleagues has found a bug in the java.lang.ClassLoader
implementation of the cupcake tag of the Android platform. Here is a
short descriptions:
We try to invoke ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader() in one of our OSGi
implementation classes and afterwards we have endless loop. Here are the
bodies of the methods:
public static ClassLoader getSystemClassLoader() {
SecurityManager smgr = System.getSecurityManager();
if (smgr != null) {
ClassLoader caller = VMStack.getCallingClassLoader();
if (caller != null !caller.isAncestorOf(SystemClassLoader.loader)) {
smgr.checkPermission(new RuntimePermission(getClassLoader));
}
}
return SystemClassLoader.loader;
}
...
and in isAncestorOf method we have:
final boolean isAncestorOf(ClassLoader child) {
for (ClassLoader current = child; current != null; current =
child.parent) {
if (current == this) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
In a dynamic environment like an OSGi implementation with set security
manager the isAncestorOf(...) follows to an endless loop. As you can see
- if the child is a custom class loader, which has another class loader
as a parent. The problem is that current is always is set to
child.parent but the child is never changed. The following code fixes
the problem:
final boolean isAncestorOf(ClassLoader child) {
for (ClassLoader current = child; current != null; current =
current.parent) {
if (current == this) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
I hope that you will be able to fix this as soon as possible and to
update the cupcake branch too. Please notify me when this is ready.
Thanks in advance!!

[android-developers] Re: Building user interfaces at runtime with layouts from server
Thanks for your response. My use case is as follows: We have a server application which allows to be extended by plugins. Each plugin contributes a view and some logic. Until now, the only client we support is a web client. Every plugin contributes a jsf based xhtml page plus some java beans. What we want to do now is to support a native android client. A part of its user interface should be fixed, another part should be provided by the mentioned plugins. By adding a new plugin on the server, the user should be able use the new functionality immediately. To make that working, a plugin needs to provide a kind of an android user interface description. And of course, the android client needs to be able to render this user interface description, register generic listeners on the given ui and handle events appropriately (by sending a response to a web service for instance). The point is now: Android already has this user interface description (layout.xml) and the code which inflates such a description (in preprocessed form) to a user interface. It would be awesome to reuse this code! Thanks. Daniel On Mar 23, 6:25 pm, droozen droozenr...@gmail.com wrote: We might have to know why you want to build this way. There could be other possibilities, including using a much simpler xml that you could parse yourself and add UI elements programmatically. Or have a variety of layouts available that you could set, depending on a value you've downloaded, though I get the feeling you want something more dynamic than that. On Mar 23, 2:10 am,Danieldaniel.kro...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, Q: What is the recommended way to build user interfaces on the device based on layouts provided by a server at runtime? I am aware of this: snip source=http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/ LayoutInflater.html For performance reasons, view inflation relies heavily on pre- processing of XML files that is done at build time. Therefore, it is not currently possible to use LayoutInflater with an XmlPullParser over a plain XML file at runtime; it only works with an XmlPullParser returned from a compiled resource (R.something file.) /snip I could imagine these possibilities: - Parse XML by myself and build the ui tree. (Seems inappropriate to me since there is already maintained code which is able to do this.) - Transform XML on server to a simpler format which is cheaper to parse on the device. (Inappropriate as above.) - Preprocess the XML layout on the server the same way the build does. Transmit it to the client, and then try to load it. But how? android.content.res.XMLBlock is hidden (@hide) and I don't know how to classify the stuff in package com.android.layoutlib.bridge. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the lead Mark. I really appreciate it. I hope it gives me some insight. So, is my assessment right in that the HttpPost/ HttpClient route is not possible for this sort of thing currently?

[android-developers] Re: Get scroll position in a list activity
I've done the same in my apps for ListView (whether they be in ListActivity or in a plain Activity) with good success. I use the java.util.concurrent's ExecutorService to obtain images: 1. Your getView(..) (or bindView/newView/etc) needs to assign an image/ thumbnail (bitmap) to an ImageView. But you don't have the bitmap yet. If you do have it (store in a limited size cache), just set it . 2. If not, obtain a FutureTask from the ExecutorService and this FutureTask then will download the image, create a thumbnail from it and creates a Bitmap from this thumbnail. Remember the id of the image (can be an id, Uri, URL, whatever, as long as it is unique) and assign it to the ImageView (setTag()). 3. When ready, the FutureTask will 'post' back to the main-thread that it has an new thumbnail. 4. On the 'post'-back, loop through the children of ListView, get the appropriate ImageView, the one whose tag (getTag()) is equal to the one that FutureTask you got the image for, assign the Bitmap to this ImageView. This is it. For myself I created a sub-system of ExecutorService and FutureTask, called 'Cancelable' tasks, which make it easier to cancel queued up tasks when they're no longer necessary. But this is an optimization. On Mar 24, 8:06 am, Mark Murphy mmur...@commonsware.com wrote: Ivan Soto wrote: Do you have any article/tutorial about the placeholder images to share?

[android-developers] http proxy and chunked encoding with emulator
Hi All I am having a specific problem that is preventing me using the android SDK from work. We are using a MS Proxy here that all internet traffic has to go through. The problem seems to be when the emulator is trying to access a site that uses 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked' If I attempt to download www.nds.com (no chunked encoding) into the browser, it works fine. However if I try to go to www.google.com (uses chunked encoding), the browser fails with the message: can't determine content length, and client wants to keep connection opened My feeling (and I'm no expert in this area) is that the underlying code managing the communication through the proxy is not dealing with the null terminator on the chunk encoded response when the connection to the proxy is being kept open? Does anyone have any experience in this area? Is the source to the emulator available so I can try and understand what is going on here?

I've done the same in my apps for ListView (whether they be in
ListActivity or in a plain Activity) with good success.
I use the java.util.concurrent's ExecutorService to obtain images:
1. Your getView(..) (or bindView/newView/etc) needs to assign an image/
thumbnail (bitmap) to an ImageView. But you don't have the bitmap yet.
If you do have it (store in a limited size cache), just set it .
2. If not, obtain a FutureTask from the ExecutorService and this
FutureTask then will download the image, create a thumbnail from it
and creates a Bitmap from this thumbnail. Remember the id of the image
(can be an id, Uri, URL, whatever, as long as it is unique) and assign
it to the ImageView (setTag()).
3. When ready, the FutureTask will 'post' back to the main-thread that
it has an new thumbnail.
4. On the 'post'-back, loop through the children of ListView, get the
appropriate ImageView, the one whose tag (getTag()) is equal to the
one that FutureTask you got the image for, assign the Bitmap to this
ImageView. This is it.
For myself I created a sub-system of ExecutorService and FutureTask,
called 'Cancelable' tasks, which make it easier to cancel queued up
tasks when they're no longer necessary. But this is an optimization.

I'm trying to find one with no luck.
I have used the technique, but not in code I'm allowed to share. I do
need to more formally write this up at some point, but I do not have
anything immediately handy.
The gist of it is that you create your adapter and set it up, in
getView() or newView()/bindView() (depending on adapter choice), to see
if the thumbnail has been downloaded. If so, use it for the list row
being inflated/updated; if not, leave the ImageView in the row pointing
to some placeholder Drawable resource. This means as the user scrolls,
she will pick up the thumbnails. Also, at the end, you can quickly
iterate over the rows (ListView is a ViewGroup, IIRC, so there are
methods to iterate its children) and ensure each of those rows'
ImageViews are using their associated thumbnails.

[android-developers] Re: http proxy and chunked encoding with emulator
That very well could be a bug in the chunk encoding support of the http rewriter within the emulator's proxy code. I could not test it against a lot of cases. Can you dump the output of emulator -debug-proxy when you try to connect to www.google.com through your proxy ? This will print out the exact messages exchanged.

We are using a MS Proxy here that all internet traffic has to go through. The problem seems to be when the emulator is trying to access a site that uses 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked' If I attempt to download www.nds.com (no chunked encoding) into the browser, it works fine. However if I try to go to www.google.com (uses chunked encoding), the browser fails with the message: can't determine content length, and client wants to keep connection opened My feeling (and I'm no expert in this area) is that the underlying code managing the communication through the proxy is not dealing with the null terminator on the chunk encoded response when the connection to the proxy is being kept open? Does anyone have any experience in this area? Is the source to the emulator available so I can try and understand what is going on here?

[android-developers] How to read MMS messages? Possible or not?
Hello, i am unable to find updated information on how to read mms messages in android. I am able to query content://sms and content://mms. Content://mms contains a bunch of columns which i don't find information for. Atleast the returned Cursors seem to point to the mms in my phone. Now, how can i read the actual mms data? Is it intended that the official documentation contains no information at all?! As far as i understand it: The included Messaging/MMS application on my G1 is not part of android (the open source project)? So it's closed source and provided to the carrier by google/whoever? It'd be really nice to have some statement on this because i need to know whether i can read mms or not (which would be ridiculous).

[android-developers] Re: Injecting HTTP header into all requests issued by the emulator
the http proxy support code is in external/qemu/proxy/proxy_http_rewriter.c you should be able to modify it to inject the header you need. Apart from that, this is not supported by the current binary, so an alternative is to use a different proxy to do that. You can still use -debug-proxy to dump the messages exchanged between the emulator and the proxy. This can be useful to debug problems there.

The emulator was successfully able to make the first HTTP request, but choked on subsequent ones. Reading this list, it seems that getting the emulator to use a proxy is not is not that easy.

[android-developers] api to install update apk in private-app folder
Hi fellow developers, I have a question with regards to an update feature that I am trying to put in my application. I am wondering if it is possible for an application to download a new apk and install it inside the /data/app- private folder (which i presume is for copy protected apps)?

[android-developers] Managed filer query creates 'attempt to acquire a reference on a close SQLiteClosable'
I'm creating a managedQuery in the FilterQueryProvider.runQuery() of a ResourceCursorAdapter. That works fine, but if I set up a filter, then go to a different app, then go back to the app with the filter, the app crashes with 'attempt to acquire a reference on a close SQLiteClosable' in the performResumeActivity. My guess is that the cursor manager is trying to call requery() on the filter queries, but they have since been closed by the magic fairy (I don't keep a pointer to the cursors). The only way I can get this to work is by using a double-buffered cursor for the filters that I maintain myself and close in onPause(). That seems pretty backwards. What can cause a cursor to become invalid after the activity changes? I only have this problem when using the filter. -Mike --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake coming in April? Where is the SDK?
1.1 was essentially a update of a few Google-proprietary bits on top of the same platform as 1.0. From the point of view of the Android platform (and therefore of the SDK as well), the differences between 1.0 and 1.1 are extremely minor. Cupcake is a branch name, it's not a released version. A future numbered release will be cut from the cupcake branch, but that product isn't ready yet, and therefore there can be no SDK yet. As cupcake contains significant platform changes compared to 1.0/1.1, you can be sure that you'll have an official SDK for a cupcake-originated release as soon as possible.

[android-developers] Re: Multiplayer game
Well suhas,
I believe bluetooth is currently impossible but perhaps cupcake adds
capabilities to be able to talk to a peer?
As for Wifi, you will need to roll your own code. This is because all
games need custom networking code unless they are built from an engine
which has it integrated. A good common strategy is to have one device
act as the host and the other as the client. The host really runs
the game and the client just updates its view and tells the host what
it would like to be doing.
If your game is fairly simple, say a player can only move and kick,
then your protocol is very easy on the input side. The client throws
a move up or kick into the bytestream and when the host sees it,
it updates the position or state of everything and then sends that
back over to the client. Unlike online games, wifi play doesn't have
the bandwidth constraint so you actually can send over almost a full
view of the world every network tic. The client just positions
everything where the host says to and draws.
The loops are like this:
if (isHost) {
processInputFromNetwork(); // other player moving and kicking
processInputFromPlayer(); // this player moving and kicking
updatePhysics(); // where is everything now?
sendWorldToNetwork(); // tell the other player where everything is
now
draw();
}
if (isClient) {
processWorldFromNetwork(); // get the state of the world
processInputFromPlayer(); // this player moving and kicking
updatePhysics(); // combine what the host says the world is with
what we just did
sendInputToNetwork(); // tell the host what we just did
draw(); // draw it all
}
If your code runs really fast then you probably won't need
interpolation but it's generally a good idea just in case the host
gets laggy for some reason or if it is running on a slower phone.
People like using UDP because if there is a network problem, the
packets are just dropped, no biggie. This is fine for the world view
because the client will just show choppiness, or maybe even seamless
updates if you do your interpolation right but if the player input
packets are dropped, it's a bad thing. It's like pressing fire and
never having the thing fire.
This approach is good if you have modeled your world. If you haven't,
I recommend taking that route. If you want more than 2 players or
have a world with objects in it, you may want to use ghosting and have
the server manage the object IDs.
As for menus, I like having Host a Game and Join a Game options.
This makes the netcode simple. When you Host, it just gets the IP
addr of the WiFi device using the Android API, then listens on a port
for clients. Use TCP for that. When you Join a game, it gets the IP
addr of the WiFi device and then attempts to connect to every IP in
the subnet on your Host's port. If it connects and handshakes (think
MYGAME V/(version_number)) then it can get the game state and you can
begin the game or do whatever other steps are necessary there. At
that point the host and client(s) know each other's IPs and can start
up their UDP listeners and throwers.
I recommend running the UDP side on its own thread. That allows for
your game to just empty it's queue of stuff it has received and dump
some new stuff into it that goes to the client or host.
There are other ways to do this but this is how I handle stuff like
this and how Light Racer 3D's multiplayer will work (Coming in May).

2.gtalkservice - removed from sdk1.0
3.wifi - I dont knw how to connect 2 devices using wifi apis . I have

Or is there any other apis which can be used for implementation of

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake coming in April? Where is the SDK?
Hmm.. Despite the fact that *this is what we want*, we cannot make a guarantee that the Cupcake SDK will be officially released strictly before the platform is available on retail phones. Properly testing and packaging a SDK takes a lot of time, we *may* encounter blocker bugs that have nothing to do with the software on the phone (e.g. emulator crashes on platform X, ADB doesn't see emulator/devices on platform Y, etc..). While we test the SDK frequently during development, doing the necessary job to ensure that it's not going to break on the machines of all people who download it from the official repository takes some time. And then, the web site needs to be updated, especially the documentation needs to reflect the new features / fixes / etc... But apart from that, I don't see a reason why *this* SDK would lag behind, and as I said, we want it to be released ASAP.

I have no idea if that will work. You might try subclassing TabHost and see if you can handle the icon change yourself, though I have no idea if this is possible, and you would need to not use TabActivity (which, IIRC, creates its own TabHost object).

[android-developers] ProgressDialog is not showing...
Hi,
I know that this is common problem, but still I cannot find the
answer...
I have two classes:
InternetConnection extends Activity
ConnectionChangeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver
From ConnectionChangeReceiver I'm calling InternetConnection method
which is refreshing UI when Internet connection is changed. The
problem is that during refresh operation I'd like to show
ProgressDialog which actually is never visible !!
So broadcast class looks like:
public class ConnectionChangeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
private InternetConnection internetConnection;
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
mRefreshingDialog = ProgressDialog.show(TimeCard.this, , msg,
true);
new Thread() {
public void run() {
login(mResult);
mHandler.post(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
/** doing some UI staff
... **/
internetConnection.refreshUI();
mRefreshingDialog.dismiss();
}
});
}
}.start();
}
}
Do you know why mRefreshingDialog is not visible ?

[android-developers] Re: Bundles and serializable objects - what is actually stored?
When you put a serializable into a bundle, the bundle holds on to the object reference UNTIL it needs to be marshalled across processes. At that point it will get serialized into a byte stream, the bundle will be written into a parcel, and the other side will receive a new bundle object with a different serializable object. Pretty much everywhere Bundle is used in the system, it will go through an IPC at some point, so you need to assume the objects in it will get serialized. About the only exception to that is the Bundle in Message, since Message normally doesn't go across processes unless sent through a Messenger. But if you are using the normal local Message sending facility, there is really no reason to use the Bundle there, since you can just stick whatever you want (including a HashMap of multiple items or your own custom cloass) in the 'obj' field. Also I strongly recommend staying away from serialization. It is super super slow compared to Parcelable. On Tue, Mar 24, 2009 at 3:20 AM, Matthias m.kaepp...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi, I was wondering about the behavior of Bundles and serializable objects. If I put a serializable object into a bundle, what is serialized then, the reference to the object or the object itself? I always assumed that the object itself would be serialized to a byte stream when calling putExtra() and re-created from that representation when calling getSerializableExtra(), but I recently stumbled upon a piece of code that put an entire view into a Bundle in thread A, retrieved it from that bundle in thread B, performed a modification on it and this modification actually became visible. This can only happen if the reference to that view was stored, not the view itself, right? Otherwise, the modification had been applied to a copy of that view and would be meaningless. -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support.

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake coming in April? Where is the SDK?
Completely agree, This is one of the main issues I see in the platform. I can understand when they say that different devices can run different versions/revisions of the OS but that's only causing a fragmentation of the platform which won't be any good for both users and developers. I can already see the Market in the future to be like **Tested on G1-G2-Omnia** OR having applications released for some phones only if the Market gives that option in the future. The ability to have an early access to the next SDK is specifically so we can properly test applications before users. I'm pretty sure that if they release the SDK as late as they did last time, with a major upgrade like the one coming from the cupcake branch will break a lot of apps from the market. I'm pretty sure I don't know enough about the entire project to say this but I still see this a little unorganized (or rushed).

[android-developers] Calendar fail to launch in Cupcake 1.5
Hi, Is there anyone know why Calendar in Cupcake 1.5 fails to launch? I googled and found nothing about this issue. Is it. In addition, I got some error msg with logcat saying superclass of CalendarAppWidgetProvider was unable to resolve. However, I can't find CalendarAppWidgetProvider class from source code nor can I find it by googling the web at all. Hope someone can help.

[android-developers] Saving Stats to Textfile
Hi, I would be an intermediate level Java programmer (more of a hobbyist). I want to create an app for android that counts stats during a football game. This is roughly the functionality: 1.User presses buttons representing each type of stat e.g. #1 for score, #2 for lost posession of ball etc. (ideally it would be on a touchscreen phone and the user could use a stylus to touch buttons on the screen -by the way, would I have to program differently for a touchscreen? or is that a hardware thing?) 2.Each time a number is pressed, it's written to a text file on the phone or into a database (sqllite or whatever). 3. the text file can then be sent in a message to another android enabled phone. Is all this possible without being an advance Java programmer? Any guidance would be welcome and I realise this is a broad definition of the program.

[android-developers] No translucency when xml file present
I am experiencing a very strange problem. In my application, I have a theme that I use for one of my activities: android:theme=@style/Theme.Translucent The theme is defined as follows: style name=Theme.Translucent parent=android:style/ Theme.Translucent item name=android:windowBackground@drawable/ translucent_background/item item name=android:windowNoTitletrue/item item name=android:colorForeground#fff/item /style where drawable name=translucent_background#c000/drawable This is used for an activity that does not take up the entire screen, so the previous activity can be seen through translucency in the background. Everything works well, until I add a preferences.xml file into res/xml. After adding this file (without adding any code), the translucency stops working entirely. The background around the activity becomes black all the time. Note however, that this only happens on the device, it works fine on the emulator. If I delete this single file, all goes back to normal. Any ideas? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] GridView of Buttons
Hello, I have used GridView for 2-dim grid of Buttons. My problem is, that a user may navigate through this grid's cells -- with use of arrow keys it is possible to move yellow rectangle and by pressing enter select cell (rectangle becomes orange for a moment). Everything is behind buttons which are placed in cells of grid. How to disable possibility to select and navigate cells of grid? I would like to still use grid view but have the same possibility to navigate (change focus) among buttons (not cells in which buttons are placed) at it is possible when I place buttons in cells of TableView (not GridView). Thanks in advance for your help. Robbo --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
