[android-developers] Change to signature for Camera.setPreviewDisplay() in 1.5
Camera.setPreviewDisplay() now throws an IOException. Is there a reason this
had to be a checked exception (looking at the source code I can't an see an
immediate one)? Or is it just an oversight that will be fixed before
releasing the final SDK?
The consequence is that one cannot have code that will compile for both 1.1
and 1.5 without doing something ugly like adding a blanket try/catch, or a
dummy throw like:
try {
mCamera.setPreviewDisplay(holder);
if (false) throw new IOException();
} catch (IOException e) {
/*handle exception*/
}

To fix #2: - open Control Panel System, - Advanced tab - Environment Variables button at the bottom - Add the JRE bin to the path, e.g. edit the path variable to add something like this at the end: ;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_07\bin - Say OK tons of time - Re-open your command prompt and try again.

[android-developers] Re: Use SDK 1.5 features while maintaining SDK 1.0,1.1 backward compatibility
A more straightforward approach that should work is to isolate the affected code behind an interface, with separate implementations for 1.1 and 1.5. A factory method can be used to opaquely return the correct instance based on the build's sdk version. This has the advantage that you can usually hold onto a reference to the appropriate implementation and avoid repeatedly checking the version number. It does add the cost of a interface method call, but that's perfectly acceptable in most instances - if not, it's usually because the work is being done in an inner loop, in that case you generally need to replicate the loop for both implementations.

[android-developers] Re: android:style/Theme.Translucent stumped
Yea, sadly this is a known issue. It ends up the activity history stack is somehow deciding that the window is fullscreen (and therefore doesn't need to render anything behind it, leaving it black). This only happens when you try /inheriting/ from the framework themes. Using @android:style directly will still treat them as non- fullscreen, which punches through the black background as expected. One workaround is to start with a nearly-blank theme (like Panel or Transluent) and then render what you need in your own layout (such as dialog edges, etc). I spent a few days tracking this down, and I didn't find any other workarounds.

It's necessary to use the AlertDialogSamples.this syntax in an inner class when you want to refer to an ancestor class instance.

[android-developers] Re: App widgets and remote views
Awesome, great to hear people are jumping into it. :) For performance, the one thing to keep in mind is that each widget update will spin up your process, which is somewhat expensive. (So you probably want to avoid updating more often than once per hour to help save battery.) Also, while pushing bitmaps across RemoteViews is possible, it /is/ expensive. We experimented with pushing modified full-size album art to a larger desktop widget and started triggering ANRs in other foreground apps because it was so expensive. One lightweight method to write a clock would be to use a combination of animated/leveled drawables. Using an example of a single digit from a base-10 clock, you might have something like this: level-list xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android item android:maxLevel=0 animation-list xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/ res/android android:oneshot=false item android:drawable=@drawable/digit0 android:duration=6 / item android:drawable=@drawable/digit1 android:duration=6 / ... item android:drawable=@drawable/digit9 android:duration=6 / /animation-list /item ... item android:maxLevel=5 animation-list xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/ res/android android:oneshot=true item android:drawable=@drawable/digit5 android:duration=6 / ... item android:drawable=@drawable/digit9 android:duration=6 / /animation-list /item /level-list Where the levels would be used when performing a clock update mid- cycle. Then, performing an exact update at an hour edge to start it down the full 0-9 repeating cycle. Each of the digits above lasts for a full minute before changing, so you would bump that to 60ms for the minute 10's digit. And updating the hour digits manually each hour might work nicely. However, I'm not sure if it the animated drawable will correctly catch up if you leave the screen for a period of time, as it might continue the animation where you left off. Worth peeking into. :) Also is there a way for thewidgetprovider to know (receive a hint for) the size at which thewidgetwill be rendered? This is useful in this instance since one doesn't want to make the bitmap any larger than necessary. There isn't right now, but if you use drawables defined using shape instead of bitmaps, it should scale nicely. A final question: is there a way for a provider to request that a wedget be 'oversized' (like the search bar or media control)? When you say oversized, you mean filling multiple cells? Setting the minimum size should let you take up multiple cells. Here's a quick equation that should work: Minimum size in dip = (Number of cells * 74dip) - 2dip j --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: App widgets and remote views
I tried setting various combinations of android:minWidth and android:minHeight on the appwidget-provider element and on my ImageView, but nothing seemed to have an effect... ...okay I've just worked out why - obvious in retrospect - the minimum dimensions specified by the appwidget provider are only applied when the widget is first added to the host. I'd tested it without removing the widget and re-adding it. Tom. 2009/4/15 Jeffrey Sharkey jeffrey.shar...@gmail.com Awesome, great to hear people are jumping into it. :) For performance, the one thing to keep in mind is that each widget update will spin up your process, which is somewhat expensive. (So you probably want to avoid updating more often than once per hour to help save battery.) Also, while pushing bitmaps across RemoteViews is possible, it /is/ expensive. We experimented with pushing modified full-size album art to a larger desktop widget and started triggering ANRs in other foreground apps because it was so expensive. One lightweight method to write a clock would be to use a combination of animated/leveled drawables. Using an example of a single digit from a base-10 clock, you might have something like this: level-list xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android item android:maxLevel=0 animation-list xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/ res/android android:oneshot=false item android:drawable=@drawable/digit0 android:duration=6 / item android:drawable=@drawable/digit1 android:duration=6 / ... item android:drawable=@drawable/digit9 android:duration=6 / /animation-list /item ... item android:maxLevel=5 animation-list xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/ res/android android:oneshot=true item android:drawable=@drawable/digit5 android:duration=6 / ... item android:drawable=@drawable/digit9 android:duration=6 / /animation-list /item /level-list Where the levels would be used when performing a clock update mid- cycle. Then, performing an exact update at an hour edge to start it down the full 0-9 repeating cycle. Each of the digits above lasts for a full minute before changing, so you would bump that to 60ms for the minute 10's digit. And updating the hour digits manually each hour might work nicely. However, I'm not sure if it the animated drawable will correctly catch up if you leave the screen for a period of time, as it might continue the animation where you left off. Worth peeking into. :) Also is there a way for thewidgetprovider to know (receive a hint for) the size at which thewidgetwill be rendered? This is useful in this instance since one doesn't want to make the bitmap any larger than necessary. There isn't right now, but if you use drawables defined using shape instead of bitmaps, it should scale nicely. A final question: is there a way for a provider to request that a wedget be 'oversized' (like the search bar or media control)? When you say oversized, you mean filling multiple cells? Setting the minimum size should let you take up multiple cells. Here's a quick equation that should work: Minimum size in dip = (Number of cells * 74dip) - 2dip j --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Re: how on earth do you access command line?
So first, these variables are case-insensitive so PATH or Path doesn't make a difference here. Next, it doesn't matter which you choose to modifiy unless you have multiple user accounts. If you have a single user account, simply modify the user account one and leave the system one alone. Third, you don't want to replace what's already there, just add to it -- that way it won't break existing stuff. The path syntax is path1;path2;path3... The semi-colon is the separator, so just add a ; and then the jre/bin path at the end. HTH R/ On Tue, Apr 14, 2009 at 11:46 PM, sch...@gmail.com wrote: I really appreciate this help.

[android-developers] Re: Black Screen problem with graphics update using unlockCanvasAndPost()
The problem is your line Thread.currentThread().sleep(1000);//sleep for 1000 ms I believe with SurfaceView you have to draw your whole view on every screen refresh. You just need to loop as fast as possible and the system will throttle the speed in the calls to lockCanvas(). By sleeping for 1 second you are failing to provide a canvas for every refresh so the screen appears blank. What I don't know is whether there is any guidance on how quickly you have to get through your loop, i.e. what the maximum refresh rate is --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: App widgets and remote views
I just started taking a closer look at what would be needed to make a well-functioning gadget and have an observation. I'm assuming that the intention of the design is that I can grab a AppWidgetManager instance for my application's context any time I want, so that I can push an update to my gadgets. I've verified that this works by creating an Activity with a button that can be clicked to update a gadget. This means I can set up my own alarm if I want regular timed updates to my widget and don't need to use the android:updatePeriodMillis attribute. I observe that there is no notification of when widgets become visible/invisible. I assume this is because you don't want to generate a storm of process creation each time home screen comes in/out of view. Somewhat surprisingly though, widgets appear to receive update notifications when they are not visible. Combining these two thoughts, why not have updates triggered by android:updatePeriodMillis only while the widget is visible? It would both reduce the number of broadcasts (and associated process launches), be useful for some gadgets to reduce the amount of work they need to do, and provide distinct functionality from the alarm notifications that are already available to widget providers via the AlarmManager. Just an idea. Tom. 2009/4/15 Jeffrey Sharkey jeffrey.shar...@gmail.com Awesome, great to hear people are jumping into it. :) For performance, the one thing to keep in mind is that each widget update will spin up your process, which is somewhat expensive. (So you probably want to avoid updating more often than once per hour to help save battery.) Also, while pushing bitmaps across RemoteViews is possible, it /is/ expensive. We experimented with pushing modified full-size album art to a larger desktop widget and started triggering ANRs in other foreground apps because it was so expensive. One lightweight method to write a clock would be to use a combination of animated/leveled drawables. Using an example of a single digit from a base-10 clock, you might have something like this: level-list xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android item android:maxLevel=0 animation-list xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/ res/android android:oneshot=false item android:drawable=@drawable/digit0 android:duration=6 / item android:drawable=@drawable/digit1 android:duration=6 / ... item android:drawable=@drawable/digit9 android:duration=6 / /animation-list /item ... item android:maxLevel=5 animation-list xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/ res/android android:oneshot=true item android:drawable=@drawable/digit5 android:duration=6 / ... item android:drawable=@drawable/digit9 android:duration=6 / /animation-list /item /level-list Where the levels would be used when performing a clock update mid- cycle. Then, performing an exact update at an hour edge to start it down the full 0-9 repeating cycle. Each of the digits above lasts for a full minute before changing, so you would bump that to 60ms for the minute 10's digit. And updating the hour digits manually each hour might work nicely. However, I'm not sure if it the animated drawable will correctly catch up if you leave the screen for a period of time, as it might continue the animation where you left off. Worth peeking into. :) Also is there a way for thewidgetprovider to know (receive a hint for) the size at which thewidgetwill be rendered? This is useful in this instance since one doesn't want to make the bitmap any larger than necessary. There isn't right now, but if you use drawables defined using shape instead of bitmaps, it should scale nicely. A final question: is there a way for a provider to request that a wedget be 'oversized' (like the search bar or media control)? When you say oversized, you mean filling multiple cells? Setting the minimum size should let you take up multiple cells. Here's a quick equation that should work: Minimum size in dip = (Number of cells * 74dip) - 2dip j --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Use SDK 1.5 features while maintaining SDK 1.0,1.1 backward compatibility
The JLS requires that, even if a JVM identifies a binding error early, the exception raised must be deferred until an attempt is made to use the class. I'm paraphrasing here, but it's been years since I last read the JLS. That's the basic idea anyway. Of course, the interface can only depend on classes that are available in both environments (which is the mistake made by the poster you linked to). When I say should work I mean should work for you. I know this approach works because I use it my Moseycode library. I have a Perspector interface that I back with one of: a JAI PerspectiveTransform instance, a wrapper around android.graphics.Matrix, or my own implementation if neither is available.

[android-developers] Re: Early Look Android 1.5 SDK
Still a few rough edges to be fixed ;) - Executing emulator -wipe-data does not work (it needs an android virtual device to be specified) I still don't know if this option is needed (probably yes, because running eclipse with the new SDK doesn't start the emulator). - The release notes state that v0.8.0 of the Android toolkit plug-in used for r1.1 can also be used for r1.5. However, when I restart eclipse after updating the locatiion of the new SDK, a message pops up that the toolkit must be updated to v0.9.0. However, updating the Android plug-in indicates that 0.8.0 is the latest version of the plug-in. - Maybe because of these problems, eclipse does not start the emulator.

[android-developers] Re: Business search using Android GeoCoder APIs
Hi , As per google's saying that Android framework treats each application equally as Native application. But here native Maps application is able to retreive Business searches like pizza hut etc. But My 3rd Party Maps application is not able to retreive it. As per SDK 1.0 , there are APIs in Address class like getphone() API, But it returns null. getfromlocationname() API is also returning null in case of business search. It means it is a bug in SDK1.0 as API is exposed and documented as per google documentation. Shall i raise an issue in issue database of google? I would appreciate if some one from google can respond to this issue or give any pointers.

[android-developers] Re: Audio streaming/progressive download over HTTP
When you say no support for AAC, does it mean no AAC support for pure audio stream? Can we use rtsp streaming with a MPEG-4 video containing an AAC audio channel? On Apr 14, 11:56 pm, Dave Sparks davidspa...@android.com wrote: We don't have an API for progressive download yet. Technically, the website should say progressive streaming, but from a file authoring perspective there is no distinction between the two. RTSP support is only available for MPEG-4 file formats.

Could you please help me? 1. MediaPlayer supports progressive download according to the developer guide from this linkhttp://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/index.html (If you're passing a URL to an online media file, the file must be capable of progressive download.). As far as I understand progressive download means media playback during download process with saving the media file to file system(SD card or internal FS) after the downloading is finished (if it's a file, not a stream in the passed URL). So, I tried to set the following URL: setDataSource (http://84.204.154.49/mmapi/music.mp3). Playback is fine, but the file isn't saved to SD card or internal phone file system. Can MediaPlayer save media content to the file system after downloading is completed? Is there a way to turn on such capability? 2. Does MediaPlayer support HTTP streaming? I tried to usehttp://217.10.32.134:8129/ultrafan128.mp3,http://62.32.66.180:8800, also AMR-, AAC- audio stream over HTTP on the local server, but playback does not work.

[android-developers] Performance test cases
Ok, so I want to do some performance testing. I'd like to this in an automated way and would like to evaluate the available test harness by using the built in JUnit framework. I have really looked for documentation regarding this but have found very little. I figured out that I should implement the android.test.PerformanceTestCase interface in my test classes. I managed to run the test case by running adb shell am instrument -w xyz.performance.tests/android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner where my test classes are located in the xyz.performance.tests package. The output and result can be seen below: -- xyz.performance.tests.PerformanceTest:. xyz.performance.tests.TimeTest:. Test results for InstrumentationTestRunner=.. Time: 1.699 OK (2 tests) -- and logcat doesn't say anything about the time to execute the individual tests.

[android-developers] Re: Black Screen problem with graphics update using unlockCanvasAndPost()
I may have found my problem. The SurfaceView class implements a function called draw(Canvas). I unwittingly created my own function draw() with the same signature, overriding the original. I'm guessing that the SurfaceView probably calls draw() during unlockCanvasAndPost(). But instead of executing its original draw() method and doing what it is supposed to do, it calls my function - simply overwriting the canvas buffer without affecting the Surface at all... thus the black screen. I'm still confused about why it eventually shows. Perhaps some final cleanup code... I will test this tonight when I have access to my development computer and post my findings.

First, this isn't quite on-topic for this group (neither is the meta-discussion about patent laws and their interpretation that is almost guaranteed to follow), as this has no relationship to the official Android SDK. Second, more importantly, many people who read and participate in this group and other official Android discussion groups work for companies where company policy is to avoid reading or learning about any patent-related subject, and to avoid forums and sites where such discussions routinely happen. It'd be unfortunate if those people were forced to stay away from the official groups because of patterns of patent-related discussions. Let's try to be self-moderating in that area before lawyers need to get involved (as even the most friendly lawyers can't make their involvement pleasant in that case).

I am thus not confident to tell you if such or such feature is going to be supported in the official cupcake release, especially if you test it on a build of unknown origin. You could try running your code in the preview SDK which probably is closer to the real thing that what you have on this device.

(R.id.edit);
// Create the adapter from the database cursor
mFrom = new String[] { DictionaryDbAdapter.KEY_ROWID};
mTo = new int[] { android.R.id.text1 };
SimpleCursorAdapter adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter( this,
android.R.layout.simple_dropdown_item_1line,
aCursor, mFrom, mTo );
}
The DictionaryDbAdapter class is based on the one used in the Notepad
tutorial sample.
I would like to associate the cursor to the content provider
CONTENT_URI, so that I can link its adapter to the
AutoCompleteTextView. Can I do it?
Thanks,
Paul

[android-developers] is an AppWidget Configuration Activity required?
I'm playing around with the new AppWidget API, I get the impression from the docs that I don't need an android:configuration attribute in my AppWidgetProviderInfo xml resource. Curiously though, when I try to add my AppWidget to the home screen, I just get a black textview that reads Problem loading widget. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

It'd be unfortunate if those people were forced to stay away from the official groups because of patterns of patent-related discussions.

But it is likely to be more complicated, and the more complicated it is, the slower it will be. And let's not even get in to XML descriptions of vector images. Parsing XML is slow as well. This is why we compile all XML resources into a binary format -- even though that binary format is fairly general-purpose and closely matches the XML format, it is about 100x faster to process on the device.

[android-developers] How can I call methods in Activity from an event listener of a custom Adapter?
Hi everyone,
I have created a ListView and a custom Adapter with ImageButton widget
in each row. I set the ImageButton OnClick Listener in getView method
to trigger each ImageButton's OnClick event of each ListView row.
Everything goes well, but I have no idea how to call Activity methods
from ImageButtons' OnClickListener handler.
I initial my ListView as following code
in MyActivity class:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
MyListAdapter myListAdapter = new MyListAdapter
( MyActivity.this,
R.layout.list_row,
myList );
myListView.setAdapter(myListAdapter);
}
in MyListAdapter class:
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
LayoutInflater inflate = LayoutInflater.from( context );
View v = inflate.inflate( rowResID, parent, false);
ImageButton button1 = (ImageButton)v.findViewById( R.id.button1 );
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
//How to call MyActivity class methods from
here??
}
});
}
Thank you for your kindly help in advance.

[android-developers] Using KSoap2 with VB.Net webservice
Hello All,
I am having some serious difficulty using KSoap2 to connect to a
VB.Net webservice and am hoping I could get some help from someone who
is smarter than me. I have been trying to work this out for 2 weeks
with no luck.
So this is my problem. Using KSoap2 on the Android platform I have
successfully queried a super simple web service that I created using
vb.net (It can be found at
http://gershwinsolutions.ftpaccess.cc/2dowebservice.asmx)
I receive a XML result which looks quite reasonable to me.
ReturnCustomerObject2Response{
ReturnCustomerObject2Result=anyType{CustomerID=1; FirstName=This is a
test; };
}
However at the point where I try to cast the object I am returning
from the webservice into a KvmSerializable object (as required by
KSoap2) I receive a java.lang.ClassCastException.
This is my object (I have excluded imports for brevity):
public class Customer extends BaseObject {
private int m_CustomerID;
private String m_FirstName;
public static Class? extends Customer Customer_CLASS = new Customer
().getClass();
public void setCustomerID(int CustomerID) {
m_CustomerID = CustomerID;
}
public int getCustomerID() {
return m_CustomerID;
}
public void setFirstName(String FirstName) {
m_FirstName = FirstName;
}
public String getFirstName() {
return m_FirstName;
}
public void getPropertyInfo(int index, Hashtable properties,
PropertyInfo info) {
switch (index)
{
case 0:
info.type = PropertyInfo.INTEGER_CLASS;
info.name = CustomerID;
break;
case 1:
info.type = PropertyInfo.STRING_CLASS;
info.name = FirstName;
break;
default:
break;
}
}
@Override
public Object getProperty(int index)
{
switch (index) {
case 0:
return m_CustomerID;
case 1:
return m_FirstName;
default:
return null;
}
}
@Override
public int getPropertyCount() {
return 2;
}
@Override
public void setProperty(int index, Object value) {
switch (index) {
case 0:
m_CustomerID = Integer.parseInt(value.toString());
break;
case 1:
m_FirstName = value.toString();
break;
default:
break;
}
}
}
private static final String SOAP_ACTION = http://tempuri.org/
ReturnCustomerObject2;
private static final String METHOD_NAME = ReturnCustomerObject2;
