[android-developers] Re: How to build 2 projects in on apk?
If you don't specify in the manifest that the components should have different process names, they'll be in the same process. You can even put components from different .apk's into the same process by giving them the same process name -- so long as they're signed by the same cert. Or maybe the same key; I forget which way they set it up. Generally the same thing either way. A component dying (say, a GUI) will not take out other components (e.g. a service). It's not like C++ where a small bug in one component will corrupt memory. That's not to say that bugs in one can't affect another, but not nearly to the same degree.

IF you only launch the service, but also offer an icon to launch a GUI, will they still share the same process? Not even sure if/how you can do that, but just curious if you can, what happens.

I would very seriously suspect that they report it. I remember having to give a social-security/tax-id to Adsense when signing up. And just thinking through their tax predicament (bringing in tons of money, and seeing a lot of it go straight back out), they're going to need to keep records, and report as to where that money went out to.

[android-developers] Re: conditional compilation
There is a much better way to do this. I have outlined it in a prior post, but I don't have time to dig it out or recreate it tonight. I'm planning to turn it into a blog post at some point. Basically, you do not need conditional compilation. The *only* Java code which needs to change is the generated R.java file -- and even that you should be able to generate correctly, though I wasn't able to get it to work. It can all be done with an ant script. The manifest needs to be processed. It's helpful to process some resource files -- for example, to embed the version number, etc. XSLT is your friend here, it's much easier to manipulate XML than to deal with all the issues with preprocessing -- including completely screwing up line numbers, in most cases, but commenting out rather than omitting lines should avoid that! To avoid screwing up the debug cycle, I produce by default a dev version, which gives access to both free and pro functionality for test and debug. It works really well, but there's a few quirks I wish I had time to explain just now; I hope I covered them in my earlier message, which I hope you can find... Feel free to bug me more on the topic after April 1. On Mar 30, 5:45 pm, John Seghers jsegh...@cequint.com wrote: In the J2ME world of wildly non-conforming implementations, conditional compilation is the norm. Sun even admited it by adding configurations (IIRC) to NetBeans 5. EclipseMe (Now the official Eclipse Mobile Tools for Java project--MTJ) has support for it, as does the Antenna extension to Ant. The most common method currently is to use a construction such as //#if CONDITIONAL ... //#endif This shields the conditional statement from language-aware but conditional-unaware editors. The build system then comments out the intervening lines of code if the condition is not met. I've used everything from ant processing to running the full Java code (and even XML files) through the C++ preprocessor for macro expansion. In Android, especially when trying to maintain two versions of a product (Free vs. Paid, for example) conditional compilation (or parallel code trees) is mandatory because the package names must change (at least in the manifest). This is one case where the if (const) blocks will not work. If there is a better way of handling this, please enlighten us. I haven't yet tackled this problem in the Android dev environment because it tends to disrupt the debug part of the edit-compile-debug- edit cycle. What I have done is to add an eclipse builder to run a perl script to generate a Java interface (in the gen/ directory) that defines constants for build time/number pulled from Team Foundation Server. This allows automatic version stamping for the about screen-- though does not yet modify the version name/number in the manifest.

I suggest this one:http://java.decompiler.free.fr/?q=jdgui You'll see that it does indeed optimize when it can. However, unlike a C file which gets linked into a .so or .dll or an executable, Java classes may be combined in different ways. So it cannot optimize away static final references in other classes, because those may change. However, tools like ProGuard can do so, because they work on an entire application. But remember, once you do something like this, that code can never be used in a context with a different valiue. It virtually never makes sense to do this for conditional compilation reasons. Sometimes it makes sense to generate code (the Android tools do in fact generate a couple of files). In the rare case you do need to eliminate code due to extremely tight performance constraints or size constraints, I'd recommend the ProGuard route, as it will do a FAR more thorough job than you can do manually with conditional compilation.

It is not a third party application. Also the SystemServer initiates SurfaceFlinger. In this case the above EGL API is working fine in SurfaceFlinger.

Re: [android-developers] Re: GLSurfaceView on app widget?
Btw, we very strongly avoid looking at widgets as mini applications which is where people often are coming from when they ask these questions. That is not what they are for. If you want to do something highly interactive with the user, you should be doing it in your own activity. You could have a widget for a low-fidelity summary on the home screen that the user can tap to enter your high-fidelity activity. You can put your activity on the wallpaper to have a very clean transition from the home screen to the activity (very much feeling like they are part of the same thing).

Re: [android-developers] the behavior of singleTask not consistent with the document?
I suggest you don't use singleTask. And very strongly suggest you don't use singleInstance. These are for very specialized cases, and at the very least if your app isn't being launched from other apps it makes little sense to use them and is likely to cause you trouble.

From the Android dev guide, I got the impression that my SingleTaskActivity should start a new task (or reuse an old task) and always sit at the root of the stack when launched. However, it's inconsistent with the behavior of the app if I follow the steps below: - launch StandardActivity from home - click the home key - launch SingleTaskActivity from home, you will see it's in the foreground as expected - click the Back key, StandardActivity comes to the foreground whereas I expect to see the home screen because SingleTaskActivity is supposed to be at the ROOT of the stack.

[android-developers] Re: Deploying shared resources
On Mar 24, 7:03 pm, Mark Murphy mmur...@commonsware.com wrote: Jargon wrote: We are investigating the possibilities to package deploy platform UI extensions which can contain both Java code andresources- which then can be (re-)used by applications using uses-library tag in the AndroidManifest.xml. You and me both, though I'm not trying to use uses-library. Can you explain more of your strategy - and how to avoid platform changes? My initial plan is to do very small changes in the platform to enable vendors to build their own resource packages, just as framework-res.apk, since most of the stuff already seems to be there. Then looking into a more long- term solution which eliminates the unique package identifier issue which in inevitable, basically by replacing the top 8 package bits in the resource identifier with a namespace identifier, e.g. com.vendor.foo. Such a solution would enable introduction of third party packages just by adding them into the file system since their resources would not clash with existing ones. One solution which has been discussed was to use the aapt -x option together with the new --custom-package option introduced in November to generate unique resource identifiers for the shared resource package. That's interesting -- I had not noticed --custom-package before. I will need to do some experiments to see if this helps with the solution I'm working on. This fix enabled us to use the aapt tool as is, without any patching. Still we are considering another option --custom-package-id which would enable finer control of which package identifier is assigned to the generated package. Then, just as the uses-library information in the manifest file would bootstrap the class loader with the listed extension packages, it would add these packages to the asset manager as well - allowing the asset manager to locate and load the extensionresources. (This would require a platform extension.) I'm trying to avoid anything that requires modifying the SDK, and I agree that overloading uses-library this way would require such modifications AFAIK. We were considering introducing a uses-resources tag but this would require a lot more changes. To me, it feels natural to think that a library could hold both code and resources. So, my question is really if this is a way forward - using the 8 package bits in the resource identifiers? What are the 8 package bits? Each resource identifier consists of 32 bits were 8 top bits defines the package in which the resource belongs to. Platform resources are 0x01 and 0x7F are application resources. The idea is to use the remaining 253 values for extension packages. This solution would probably work initially for one vendor since the allocation of unique package identifiers would be an internal issue, but if extension packages where to be exchanged within the android community there would be a high risk of packages using the same identifiers. The issue of identifier collisions is a well-understood one for those who have done development before with reusable components or modular operating systems. Everything from Linux's apt and yum to Ruby gems requires unique identifiers. So long as there are a handful of popular repositories, first one in wins should suffice there. Hence, I am not that worried about that aspect of the problem too much. Whoever comes up with a component packaging system just needs to also run a repository. With the introduction of namespace, e.g. com.vendor.foo such a repository would not be needed since they would eliminate resource clashing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Ads in apps... How to successfully generate a larger revenue?
I think I should also do this, i.e switch from Admob --- QW or Mobclix. If even I made 50 per day it would be enough...but yes how to force user to update ? I have more than 10k active installs.

Maybe it's the google market that doesn't report it? I had asked about this some time ago, for those selling apps and making their 70%, at tax time do they get some 1099 or something, and several said no. So I am unclear as to how the market handles taxes... as well, if you do micro transactions in your app, where you charge $1 for some virtual item, using paypal/google, who take a cut, how is that handled? Does google/paypal send in info on how much was paid to you.. that is not clear to me at all.

I remember having to give a social-security/tax-id to Adsense when signing up.

On Tue, Mar 30, 2010 at 7:00 PM, Wayne Wenthin wa...@fuligin.comwrote: I'll chime in on this. I have switched from admob to mobclix recently. (actually I can control which one I use base on a network check) I have noticed my CTR jump from around 2-3 a day to around 7. This makes me more inclined to hang with them. But I only changed after I watch admob drop from around 7 a day to 1-2. Now 150 a day is my new goal ;-) But I figure if I can bring in 100 a month or so it's still better than nothing.

That would supplement my income nicely. :) Second, slightly off topic, but directly related to revenue.. with that much coming in, or say even more if you had like $1000 a day coming in, what do you do about income taxes? I was told by some that google doesn't send any money making info to IRS.. so essentially there is no way for IRS or any tax/government to track how much you make. I am probably a long ways off from earning $1 a day.. but I am curious how you handle this issue. Is it on faith that you pay taxes... and mind you, you can shoot a private email if this is something that you wouldn't want to make public. :) I am not trying to cheat the IRS out of money by any means.. I would rather be legit... but am interested in how this is done. Living in California I already lose half my paycheck to taxes between state and federal. The ads that are done in games, don't they have to be clicked on to earn money? You said you have 60,000 users, do a lot of them click the ads while playing a game? Or even in a splash screen or game-over screen? Or do you earn money just by showing the ad? I would hope both.. clicks == more money, showing == very little. But if you get nothing from displaying the ad.. that seems ridiculous... because you are advertising for that ad.. the user is seeing that ad.. even if they don't click it, it may trigger them later to look it up, etc. If you do make some money off of each ad displayed... how does it work? I mean, you could write a robot app that made it seem like 10's of 1000's of people were at least seeing the ad. There must be some way that admob and others avoid cheating and losing money. Lastly, I thought things like admob required an ad

[android-developers] Re: Integrate IPhone Safari like view in Android?
Hi, I am trying to mimic the view of IPhone Safari. And also, if you have looked at the TweetDeck Application in IPhone. It is quite similar to Anrdoid Browser, since it has minimized window. What I have been able to do is minimize the view using Animation as below : ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? set xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android; android:shareInterpolator=false scale android:interpolator=@android:anim/ accelerate_decelerate_interpolator android:fromXScale=1.0 android:toXScale=0.8 android:fromYScale=1.0 android:toYScale=0.6 android:pivotX=50% android:pivotY=50% android:fillAfter=false android:keepScreenOn = true android:duration = 500 / /set The source code for the Activity goes like this : import android.app.Activity; import android.content.Intent; import android.graphics.Bitmap; import android.graphics.Canvas; import android.graphics.Matrix; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.View; import android.view.animation.Animation; import android.view.animation.AnimationUtils; import android.widget.Button; import android.widget.LinearLayout; public class ShrinkAnimation extends Activity { private Button btnShrink = null; private LinearLayout ll = null; private Animation shrinkAnimation = null; private Bitmap shrunkview = null; /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); shrinkAnimation = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(ShrinkAnimation.this,R.anim.shrink); btnShrink = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnShrink); ll = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.mainLayout); btnShrink.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { ll.startAnimation(shrinkAnimation); } }); } } And the layout is like this : ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?

[android-developers] super.onResume() at beginning or end of method? Does it matter?
In general, does it matter in an Activity if I put the call to super.onResume() at the beginning or the end of my own onResume() method? In other words, I can do this ... @Override public void onResume() { super.onResume(); // do my stuff } ... or this ... @Override public void onResume() { // do my stuff super.onResume(); } Does it matter which one I choose? And if so, why? Obvously, this probably depends on what do my stuff actually entails. However, I'm looking for an explanation of what super.onResume() actually does, so I can make an intelligent decision as to where is the best place to put it in my own onResume method. I guess the same question would also apply to the position of super.onPause(), super.onStart(), super.onRestart(), etc., in the appropriate method calls, but let's at least start this discussion with super.onResume().

[android-developers] Re: Communication between android Emulator and Real Device !!!
Hey AJ, Sorry not always at computer, so can't reply instantly. What I've done is write my own server application (mainly because I like doing it lol) and because I find that the easiest route. Before I go too deeply into explaining things, I need to know what types of languages you know first, because there are many ways to achieve this. Do you perhaps know how to set up a web server on your computer either a Java Web Server (which might be best) or Apache or IIS Web Server? Once that stumbling block is covered, you then write a Web Application which you can use the browser on the Emulator to log into. Once done, you get the real device to also log in. Once they are both connected, you need to get your Web Application to then start relaying messages back and forth. Like I mentioned there are many ways to achieve this and most get complex very quickly, it just depends on what you want to achieve as to what is the best option.

[android-developers] Launch Google Maps app
Hi, I'm trying to launch Google maps from my application. I'm using: GeoPoint center = _mapView.getMapCenter(); Uri uri = Uri.parse(geo:+center.getLatitudeE6() +,+center.getLongitudeE6()); Log.d(LOG_TAG, Launching Google Maps with Uri: (+uri+)); Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri); startActivity(intent); I tested it with a map centered on somewhere in NYC, however Google maps opens not centered there. I followed Android Developer's site reference to use: geo:latitude,longitude pattern. the log that you see prints: 03-31 13:01:20.126: DEBUG/CarMapActivity(248): Launching Google Maps with Uri: (geo:40763500,-73979305) anyone knows what can be the problem? thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Looking for definitive location finding logic
I am looking for a tutorial that explains the logic for fast, robust location finding. Basically I am sick of Google Maps finding my location so incredibly fast and accurately while my own application struggles to get a location. I would be fine with pseudo code responses and I will explain what I am doing so maybe I can be shown what I am doing wrong. 1. Get the locationManager object. 2. Do a 'get best provider' call. 3. Get a list of all available providers. 4. lm.requestLocationUpdates(bestProvider, 0, 0, this); // hit the location provider as much as I can to get my first signal 5. Send a delayed message. If a location cannot be found in 10 seconds, switch to a different provider and try again with lm.requestLocationUpdates(nextProvider, 0, 0, this); 6. Repeat step 5 until I have a location. 7. Once a location is found determine if it is the most accurate provider. If it is not try again with the most accurate provider on an 8 second delay. If it is the most accurate provider then set lm.requestLocationUpdates(currentProvider, 3, 0, this); to conserve battery 8. Make sure to lm.removeUpdates(this); before changing the requestLocationUpdates Now it occurs to me that it may be possible to iterate through my list of providers and do requestLocationUpdates for all providers at once. Is this a viable option or can you only listen to one provider at a time? I have seen that location from onLocationChanged has getProvider() to let you know who provided the location information so that I can know which provider is actually finding a signal and turn off the others. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Please look over my code and see what it going on. I would not use onPause() for your setResult()/finish() call. First, I think that is too late for the setResult() logic. Second, onPause() will also be invoked at other times (e.g., when the user takes a phone call). If you want to set the result when the use presses the BACK button, then set the result when the user presses the BACK button, by implementing onBackPressed() in newer versions of Android or onKeyDown() in older versions of Android. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Consulting: http://commonsware.com/consulting -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Looking for definitive location finding logic
Sorry, one last thing. Getting an incorrect location is just as bad a not getting a location for me. That is why I am not currently considering getLastKnownLocation. If I am mistaken about the usefulness of getLastKnownLocation that would also be helpful. If the user was on the North side of town when the last location was given to him and he travels to the South part of town and starts the app I do not want the app to tell him he is on the North side of town while the app is waiting 30-40 seconds to get a location. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] storing an array of objects
Hi, I have an array of 5 Timer objects in my app, some of wich have been scheduled with a TimerTask. I need to be able to store and load these 5 Timers; is there a way to save Objects? Maybe storing the address of the array would be enough? How could I do that? Thanks Simone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Ads in apps... How to successfully generate a larger revenue?
Wayne et all, I agree.. it would look strange that they are giving that much money in transactions to individuals, but where do we find out about this? Some of you are selling apps... what are you doing to deal with income taxes? When you signed up to publish your app, were you required to give some sort of business tax id, or your social and some other info so that they know who you are and can send info to IRS? Where is the info that explains this? I want to be legit, but hey, if there is no process I don't mind not losing half of that 70% to the IRS. :D I already pay way too much in taxes.

This way if my query fails I get Mobclix. The key is to place both ads in the same location and use the enabled and visible methods.

I don't think the IRS would let them use any blatant methods that look like money laundering.I'm not an accountant but I do run my own business's and that method of accounting would trigger an audit really quick for a company the size of google.

So I am unclear as to how the market handles taxes... as well, if you do micro transactions in your app, where you charge $1 for some virtual item, using paypal/google, who take a cut, how is that handled?

[android-developers] Re: what's the best 2d engine and what's the tools I need to create a game?
I wrote a wall of text on engines and stuff, but the new shiny transparent awesome Opera crashed before I hit Send :/ so this one is short. I tried Cocos2D port 2 or 3 months ago when it was WIP and not fit for anything serious. It was a while back and things could've changed, IMHO the project has a lot of potential and I suggest you check it out. I went with Rokon 1.1 and it turned out to be quite good. I think I've rewritten half of the original code, and added as much of my own, but it still saved me a lot of time, so I recommend you take a look at it as well. You will still need to get under the hood a lot because it has some problems, and you'll need to know a thing or two about OpenGL, and how to deal with Android-specific issues like said touch event flooding and GC, and avoid certain design concepts. But it's a good place to start. If you don't want OGL you can pick a canvas-based engine (I've seen at least one), but start with a benchmark to see if it can handle the amount of drawing you need, because usually it's very hard to get good framerate, unless you plan to develop exclusively for droids and nexuses.

[android-developers] Not sure if this is possible
I want to write an app that would just be for my phone. I don't intend to distribute it. Basically, what I want to do is write a replacement phone app. However, all the phone API's that the existing phone app uses are all internal non-public API's. So, my questions: 1. I've seen time and time again on this list that the Android developers don't like people using internal Android classes, but since this will just be for my phone I don't see a big deal here. So, how do I get access to those internal classes. I'm not looking at the code now, but off the top of my head I believe the PhoneFactory and Phone classes are what I need. 2. I don't really want to root my phone, but to do something like this do I need to root the phone?
