[android-developers] Android tracing gives me errors: Please help.
Hello,
I created a SD card image and mounted it to the emulator. I could see it
mounted on the emulator.
Then, in my onCreate method, i made a call
to Debug.startMethodTracing(myTrace);
When i install the application on the emulator, i get an error as shown

If you are using 1.6 you need to ask for the permission to write on the sdcard.

[android-developers] Re: Clickable URLs in EditText when using ArrowKeyMovementMethod
Answering my own post.
This can be done like:
mText.setMovementMethod(new ArrowKeyMovementMethod() {
public boolean onTouchEvent(TextView widget, Spannable buffer,
MotionEvent event) {
// Code in onTouchEvent() of LinkMovementMethod except code to
change selection
}
});

[android-developers] Re: ADC2 First Round Complete?
On Oct 6, 10:33 pm, CraigsRace craig...@gmail.com wrote: Allowing an app update would go against their own rules, so it would be very controversial. Having said that, IMO, I wouldn't mind if they did allow it for broken apps only (which I imagine are only a select few). It could be argued that judging apps on 1.6 is also against their own rules: 7. SUBMISSION PERIOD a. SUBMISSION OF ENTRIES: To qualify for a Prize, an Entry to the Challenge consists of an original application that is written using a version of the Android Software Development Kit (SDK) (available at http://developer.android.com) that validly executes on Android version 1.5. Not being in the US, I haven't been able to test my entry against 1.6 on an actual device yet, so I don't know if this affects me or not. I agree that this situation has been poorly managed, but acknowledge that Google is balancing competing interests here. IMHO, the best situation would be to allow EVERYONE in Round 2 a chance to update their apps. While this would obviously violate the TC, it's the only way that I can see to keep a level playing field. It also ignores the effect that 1.6 may have had on Round 1, but the overlap there was small enough that such effects were probably minimal. Having said that, Google has been largely silent to the other developer concerns about ADC2, so realistically, I don't expect that there will be any acknowledgement of this one either.

[android-developers] Re: Android tracing gives me errors: Please help.
Thanks for replying so quickly Romain.
I am using 1.6 indeed.
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE/
did the trick.
Thanks.

[android-developers] Re: allowTaskReparenting=true. Will there be a single instance of the activity ?
hi Dianne, Thanks for the reply. One small clarification. From your response I understand the following: If the activity instance was created in a task for which it did not have an affinity and lets assume that this task goes in the background. After some time when the task comes back in the foreground, the activity would have been pushed out of the task (as it had a different affinity). In this case where will it reside if it has been pushed out ? would it reside in a new task created specifically to hold the pushed out task? or you meant the following: it would still remain in the task in which it was created (even though the affinity is not the same as that of the task). It would be pushed out of the task ONLY if the task goes in the background AND simultaneously there exists another task which has the same affinity as the activity being pushed out of task.

[android-developers] Drawing
Hi, just a simple question which i'm unsure how would be implemented. Say you have an int called X which is constantly changing, X could equal 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50. Now when X is equal to 0, I want it to draw a circle at the bottom if the screen, when X is equal to 50 it will draw an circle at the top of screen, and the other values of X would be the midpoints between.

I think this is possible. You can create one thread and do all thing

and also sometimes I get illigalArgument Exception for the following

It looks like that the width and height of webview which we are

not see what exactly you are trying to do.
Temporarily you can put the check to avoid exception.

[android-developers] How to bring up the keyboard from WebViewClient
Here's my problem. I have a WebView, but I don't want a new Intent to be launched when the page is redirected, so I wrote my own WebViewClient to handle this. However, I can't figure out how to get the WebViewClient to allow keyboard input. Clicking on an input box does not bring up the soft keyboard, nor can I use the hard keyboard on the G1 to input data. I don't see any methods in WebViewClient that would handle this.

[android-developers] Re: You must supply a resource ID for a TextView
Hi,
I had the same problem, it was gone when i removed all the @override
lines above the functions of the SeparateListAdapter.
So try not overriding the functions.
It worked for me.

Mark, do you know a good way to share a utility class between apps? I don't mind the code being duplicated in each app's APK, but I'm looking for a way to not have to maintain separate Java files for the same source. Package it as a JAR. Here's the recipe I use for the CWAC components (http://github.com/commonsguy): Step #1: Create an empty Android project to hold the reusable code plus some scrap activity for testing or whatever. Step #2: Implement the code and stuff Step #3: Add a jar task to the Ant build script to package up just the real code but not the scrap activity (e.g., filter out stuff in the .demo sub-package) At that point, you have a JAR you can drop into other applications' libs/ directories (and, if you're an Eclipsian, add it to their build paths). By using an Android project to hold your JAR development, you automatically get access to the Android APIs to use from your common code. -- 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.

Yeah that would (usually) work because in that case the data you are putting into the .apk is already compressed, so it won't compress what you are putting in, so you don't go through the path of having to uncompress it when opening; instead the raw data can just be found at an offset in a .apk and read directly.

[android-developers] undefined behavior with getResultExtras and setResultExtras
I've created a test project with three identical classes that extend
BroadcastReceiver, named
TestReceiverOne
TestReceiverTwo
TestReceiverThree
They each have the following function as their content:
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Bundle result = getResultExtras(false);
if(result == null) {
result = new Bundle();
}
int numResults = getResultCode();
numResults++;
setResultCode(numResults);
result.putByteArray(result + (numResults),
this.getClass().getName
().getBytes());
setResultExtras(result);
}
Additionally, my test Activity has the following code:
sendOrderedBroadcast(i, null, new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Bundle results = getResultExtras(true);
int numResults = getResultCode();
tv.setText( + numResults + results);
for(String key : results.keySet())
tv.setText(tv.getText() + \n + key + : +
new String
(results.getByteArray(key)));
tv.invalidate();
}
}, null, 0, null, null);
I've added each BroadcastReceiver class to the manifest, have it
accept the appropriate action/category, and start debugging. I've set
breakpoints in the onReceive method of each test class, and in the
anonymous inner BroadcastReceiver in my onCreate.
Unfortunately, I seem to be getting somewhat undefined behavior.
Sometimes getResultExtras in my second onReceive will return null.
Sometimes getResultCode in the second onReceive returns 0. Sometimes
I'm 1 off in my third onReceive. Sometimes I get the wrong numResults
in onReceive in my activity.
What am I missing here? Is there some other behavior I have to specify
when using setResult and getResult in an ordered broadcast?

[android-developers] Re: undefined behavior with getResultExtras and setResultExtras
Actually, it looks like when I run this without stopping at
breakpoints, I'm getting the correct behavior.
Would this possibly be related to timing out after waiting 10 seconds
for onReceive to return?

[android-developers] Re: ADC2 First Round Complete?
I recall an email sent during the first challenge where winners of the first round were being given a private SDK and chance to update. It was frustrating because I'd spent a long time working around bugs in the GTalk classes and would have loved to have an updated SDK to work with, even if I wasn't in the winning group. Err, getting to the point, allowing updates at some point in the process isn't unprecedented. That said, I notice the terms and conditions say Android 1.5 or higher in all the judging sections. Maybe moving to 1.6 during the process was expected, but the problems running 1.5 apps on 1.6 weren't.

It also ignores the effect that 1.6 may have had on Round 1, but the overlap there was small enough that such effects were probably minimal.

[android-developers] Function inlining
Hi!
I recently wrote a quick test that does this:
private static int test_f(int i) { return i * 42; }
...
int z = 41;
for(int i = 0; i 1; ++i) { z = z*42; } // this loop runs
in X seconds
for(int i = 0; i 1; ++i) { z = test_f(z); }// this loop runs
in 10*X seconds
The results of this tests imples test_f() is not being inlined, even
though it really is a prime candidate for it. It should also be
possible to do this inlining at compile time.
There seems to be no option to control optimization level of the
compiler in Eclipse, perhaps optimizations like these are left to the
VM?
Does the Dalvik VM do inlining of functions at all, or did it just
decide to not inline this specific instance?
Curious to hear a response from someone more familiar with the Dalvik
VM than me.
Best regards,
Viktor Linder

My app broke as a result of an Android API throwing a proactive IllegalStateException in 1.6.

You can use any newer XML attributes, and they will be ignored on older platforms. So just specify the appropriate attributes for the IME for the newer platforms. (And also be sure to still test on older platforms, if you really care about that. I don't think there are a ton of devices left at API 2, though I really don't know any numbers, so it may not be that important.)

[android-developers] Re: Handling Network Unavailability
I think the question you're asking is simple: When network is lost, the SDK doesn't detect this and thinks it's valid still. Thus, it still tries to use it. But, since it's not there, nothing happens. How can this be resolved? If that's your question, I share that question.

The tricky part here is that my broadcast receiver does not detect the change, whereas I can clearly see that no data has been uploaded by the indication of the 3G icon in the status bar.

[android-developers] OOM error caught bei DefaultException handler ... but there is plenty of memory
Hi, I very often get bug reports about out-of-memory errors. Those errors are caught bei the default exception handler where I then ask how much memory is left (see below). Very often, like in the case from below, there is plenty of memory left though. I am wondering why this is? Of course, it might be that the bitmap (bitmap size exceeds VM budget) is actually megabytes and megabytes, but as these are resources that are small (and used by all the other users that don't get ooms) I would say that's not the case. Maybe the memory has been freed between the error and the measurement. That would be unfortunate. Any better wetter to measure the current memory consumption? Or am I missing something and there is a completely different explanation? That would be wonderful and maybe give me a completely new attack vector against those bugs. FWIW. I embed WebView and it is one of my top candidates for huge memory consumption. Maybe there is something I can measure?

[android-developers] Can't find documentation on end-user FW upgrade process
Hi, I'm trying to understand how end-users will upgrade their device firmware from Android ver. X to X+1. A new build of Android contains system.img and userdata.img (among others). system.img is read-only, so I don't see any problem with simply replacing the user's existing copy. However, simply overwriting userdata.img with a newer version would destroy all of an end-users application data (wouldn't it?). I'm trying to understand how this process will work for our Android- based device. It seems that the designers of Android must have had a plan for doing this without the user losing all of their data, but I can't find any documentation about this. Googling for this information yields lots of pages containing hacker- level instructions (e.g. adb commands) -- still no idea how this process was envisioned to work for average end-users. Does anyone know how this is supposed to work, or where this is documented?

Does the Dalvik VM do inlining of functions at all, or did it just

[android-developers] Re: OOM error caught bei DefaultException handler ... but there is plenty of memory
(Disclaimer: what follows is just my understanding of things and may be quite wrong) Bitmap memory management is complicated by the fact that the memory for bitmaps is allocated in a separate native heap. The amount of memory available in this native heap is the total memory allocation limit minus the java heap size. This is reasonable but has a subtle consequence which I can best explain by a simple example (the byte sizes have been chosen for simplicity): 1) Process starts up, generating a java heap allocation of 2MB. 2) Application initializes its state and allocates 2MB in the java heap. 3) Application creates a 2MB Bitmap which is allocated in the native heap 4) Application updates its state by crunching a 10MB byte array 5) Garbage collector kicks in and reclaims the 10MB byte array 6) Application attempts to a create a new 2MB Bitmap 7) An OutOfMemoryException is raised. At first sight it looks as though the total memory usage at (6) is 6MB (4MB java and 2MB native) so the allocation should succeed. BUT (4) raised the Java heap size to 14MB, and though most of that is no longer in use, the java heap does not shrink. So the actual allocation to the native heap is only 2MB and that is already used by the first bitmap. I hope this is correct, perhaps someone else could corroborate it, I don't want to spread my misunderstandings. Tom 2009/10/7 Mariano Kamp mariano.k...@gmail.com Hi, I very often get bug reports about out-of-memory errors. Those errors are caught bei the default exception handler where I then ask how much memory is left (see below). Very often, like in the case from below, there is plenty of memory left though. I am wondering why this is? Of course, it might be that the bitmap (bitmap size exceeds VM budget) is actually megabytes and megabytes, but as these are resources that are small (and used by all the other users that don't get ooms) I would say that's not the case. Maybe the memory has been freed between the error and the measurement. That would be unfortunate. Any better wetter to measure the current memory consumption? Or am I missing something and there is a completely different explanation? That would be wonderful and maybe give me a completely new attack vector against those bugs. FWIW. I embed WebView and it is one of my top candidates for huge memory consumption. Maybe there is something I can measure?

[android-developers] Design Issues
I've been trying to find a way to place some buttons on my custom view. I did not use ViewGroup, but the need is to place couple buttons at the high end of y coordinate. I sure don't know if I could use an XML layout for this. So imagine that 1/10 th or 1/15th of the Y axis on high end ( i.e. the bottom of the screen ) would be devoted to those buttons. Rest of the canvas is dynamically drawn figures. Using programmatic-ally, the drawable object, I can place them properly, but it is hard to label those buttons with text. I know it is possible to perhaps create several button with embedded text and draw them based on the application states, but that seems to be bit of a work. Would it be possible to use XML formatted layout to place those buttons at the high end of Y axis, as well as leave the rest for custom viewed draw without going through Viewgroup?

[android-developers] ListView setAdapter in onCreate, getChildCount is zero in onStart?
I want to display a ListView with checkboxes, and I want some of the
checkboxes pre-selected. The ListView has setAdapter called during
onCreate, and the list information appears when the screen is drawn.
However, when I attempt to set certain list items as checked, my
ListView reports getChildCount() = 0.
My SharedPreferences contains a list of sounds that have been
previously selected, as a comma delimited string of list indices.
Because the list appears to have no children in onStart, my attempts
to set items as checked fails.
On the good side, once the list is rendered, I can select entries and
hit Back, and my selection is stored to SharedPreferences correctly.
How can I load my previous selection into the list? Should I be using
something else here?

[android-developers] Re: ListView setAdapter in onCreate, getChildCount is zero in onStart?
Your activity (and your list-view) is not yet visible in the onStart.
Don't use 'getChildCount' and 'getChildAt' method to check your
preference-settings.
BTW: If your activity is not yet visible, how can a user make a
selection?
Shouldn't you query in the onPause, for example.
And also, the positions returned by the method getCheckedItemPositions
() are the positions in your adapter (ArrayAdapter in your case). Your
list-*view* positions (used in getChildAt) are not the same. You list-
view will never have more children than the ones you can see. And the
child-at postion 0 is the one on the top of the list-view.
