[android-developers] A Question regarding Android system preferences: Settings.Secure
Hello, This is regarding the DATA_ROAMING property given here: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.Secure.html#DATA_ROAMING What exactly does it mean to enable/disable data roaming ? If the user is roaming in the same access technology (say GSM), then handoffs will take place automatically. In which context is this property used ?

[android-developers] Re: Communicating from Android Service to an Activity
Thanks a lot for this hint. But in my case I have an independent GUI in a seperate prozess. I must check whether I can avoid this and use this local binding pattern. Thanks a lot ! Frank On 19 Mai, 09:46, redders redders6...@googlemail.com wrote: Looking into this further - I now understand the local binding pattern that Mark mentioned. There's a good example in the api section of the code examples that ship with the android SDK. Essentially as we are not using more than one process there's no need for IPC (*inter process* communication) interfaces defined in AIDL. Objects passed do not need to be marshalled across the barriers in the same way they would with a remote service running in a separate process. I strongly advise you to take a look at: [SDK DIRECTORY]/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/ LocalServiceBinding.java (an activity to bind to a local service) and [SDK DIRECTORY]/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/ LocalService.java (the service itself).

To the last post : I must say I use currently a mixture between 1) and 2) .. In my case the service uses Intents to inform othter apps. And the services provides an interface via aidl. But I also thinking about a pure 1) Intent only solution. From Marks post I got the suggestion, to use a start intent , when something happens on service side and no activity callback handle ist set, to send a start intent. The service can keep a kind of status flag, to know, whether the corresponding activity is running. And the activity on the other side must send an intent to the service, when the activity will be finished ? Is this a bad design ? Thanks a lot ! Frank On 18 Mai, 22:48, redders redders6...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi, I have a similar question. My application has a long running service that acts as a TCP client. There is also an activity which needs to be able to pass messages to the service which will then send them to the TCP server. In turn, the service needs to 'forward' the reply it gets from the TCP Server to the activity, which performs an action as a result. I understand there are [at least] two ways to deal with this: 1. Broadcast receivers and intents: The service and activity each register a broadcast receiver, and broadcast intents to communicate with each other, using putExtras for the data. 2. IPC using AIDL. I define two interfaces (activity to service, and service to activity), make my TCP message class implement parcelable. When my activity starts up, I bind to the service (if running, or create it if not), then receive the Service-Activity aidl Stub, then use a method defined within that to pass the Activity-Service Stub. Service and client now both have IPC Stubs and can call the each other's methods that have been defined in the interfaces. So my questions: i) is the above roughly correct? ii) are there any other sensible ways to do it? (e.g. I have heard the term Local binder / local binding pattern in the last post - is that the same as [2]?) iii) which is most appropriate for my situation?

I know that I can use startActivity(Intent) to startup the activity ..and use then sendBroadcast(Intent), but you cannot know, whether then your Activity is still running. Sure you can, though the sendBroadcast() model is probably not the right one to use. Have the activity bind to the service using the local binding pattern and have it register a callback/listener object with the service once bound.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Communicating from Android Service to an Activity
I see - just to be clear - you'll only be operating a GUI in a separate process if you've either got 2 separate applications, or one application where an activity within it explicitly specifies it wants to run in a separate process. I only say this because I didn't understand the term 'process' initially - I thought when an application spawned a service, by the fact that service could live on after the activity that spawned it was killed, it would be running in a different process! Good luck! On 21 May 2010 10:41, FrankG frankgru...@googlemail.com wrote: Thanks a lot for this hint. But in my case I have an independent GUI in a seperate prozess.

There's a good example in the api section of the code examples that ship with the android SDK. Essentially as we are not using more than one process there's no need for IPC (*inter process* communication) interfaces defined in AIDL. Objects passed do not need to be marshalled across the barriers in the same way they would with a remote service running in a separate process. I strongly advise you to take a look at: [SDK DIRECTORY]/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/ LocalServiceBinding.java (an activity to bind to a local service) and [SDK DIRECTORY]/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/ LocalService.java (the service itself).

From Marks post I got the suggestion, to use a start intent , when something happens on service side and no activity callback handle ist set, to send a start intent. The service can keep a kind of status flag, to know, whether the corresponding activity is running. And the activity on the other side must send an intent to the service, when the activity will be finished ? Is this a bad design ? Thanks a lot ! Frank On 18 Mai, 22:48, redders redders6...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi, I have a similar question. My application has a long running service that acts as a TCP client. There is also an activity which needs to be able to pass messages to the service which will then send them to the TCP server. In turn, the service needs to 'forward' the reply it gets from the TCP Server to the activity, which performs an action as a result. I understand there are [at least] two ways to deal with this: 1. Broadcast receivers and intents: The service and activity each register a broadcast receiver, and broadcast intents to communicate with each other, using putExtras for the data. 2. IPC using AIDL. I define two interfaces (activity to service, and service to activity), make my TCP message class implement parcelable. When my activity starts up, I bind to the service (if running, or create it if not), then receive the Service-Activity aidl Stub, then use a method defined within that to pass the Activity-Service Stub. Service and client now both have IPC Stubs and can call the each other's methods that have been defined in the interfaces. So my questions: i) is the above roughly correct? ii) are there any other sensible ways to do it? (e.g. I have heard the term Local binder / local binding pattern in the last post - is that the same as [2]?) iii) which is most appropriate for my situation?

I know that I can use startActivity(Intent) to startup the activity ..and use then sendBroadcast(Intent), but you cannot know, whether then your Activity is still running. Sure you can, though the sendBroadcast() model is probably not the right one to use. Have the activity bind to the service using the local binding pattern

I always thought the purpose of ADC was to gain adoption. There really does not seem to be the need to get developers on board the Android wagon.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Petitions to Google
Hearing stuff like this makes me cringe. I uses to subscribe to the holy OOP stuff but no longer. I have found that the longer you program the better your become at knowing when to make the trade off for getting something done vs wasting time on looking for the most elegant, flexible, portable solution. Out in the real work when shipping in a timely manner is more important I don't see why a simple tool can't be added. It's just another tool for gods sakes, one that many experts have used and still use today to get things done. Why should I have to write interfaces or factory objects for something I know at compile time? Why do I need to write and maintain more code just so OOP purists can feel good about themselves? Why should I have to use runtime if statements and hope the compiler strips my code out? The Java way is to throw more hardware at it when it comes down to it and we are on a hardware limited platform.

[android-developers] Re: samsung app store
Well, my opinion: - paid apps (for users) - The problems google have to be able to sell to any country, any store will have: laws! Apple took a lot of time to open an app store here in Brazil and still most of the apps aren´t available because the governament has a diferent age definition per category here, so most games aren´t publihed. - paid apps (for developers) - This sucks, and sucks hard! It´s something google needs to fix as soon as possible. Most users are on USA and Europe but developers are around the whole world and using ads to support our development is taking things to the limit already. - browsing through a website - Already shown on google I/O. Let´s wait for froio devices and this will show up. I hope in a shot time. - buying through a website - Also shown on google I/O and even MUCH better than the app store/ iTunes. Right now there´s no better system for mobile devices. - payment methods different then Google Checkout - This won´t happen, and won´t happen in ANY store. Why? Using other systems mean getting less money, and unless the company that owns the store don´t have the ability to manage money, we will see only proprietary systems for this. Also, if they don´t they will probably use only one system also. Same for advertisement companies ... - no trash apps (some form of quality standards) - Freedom vs. Closed systems. This is the discussion between app store and android market. I prefer open systems where anyone can publish anything. This way the comunity will show what is best and what is worst. Also, the ability to ask for a refund forces developers to make great apps in order to receive anything for them. If there´s someone to say if your app is good enough we will see the same old story again: rejected apps for no reason, long delays between releases In this case I do agree that android market should use a system to give emphasis to the best apps and start putting the crap ones on the lower parts of the search lists... - and all of this in their native language: - This is a good sugestion that should be sent to google.

[android-developers] Re: Best practices for creating multiple app versions from a single codebase?
Here's how I did it, not sure if it is the best practice or the most efficient one. 1. Create an Android project from Eclipse, this will be used solely for developing paid version. 2. Create an ant script to copy the entire paid version to a separate directory that becomes the free version. 3. Use custom ant tasks like TextRewrite to replace package name, app name, etc from paid to free version. 4. Use a preprocessor ant task (I used prebop) to additionally inject ads code (or cripple features) into free version. 5. After all the injections, transformations, you can either build the free version from ant, or from Eclipse (Same goes for the paid version). Of course it's not as simple as it seems, even while developing for the paid version, I still need to make some classes aware of whether it is free or paid (e.g. DatabaseAdapter related).

Hi again, I've hit a bit of a wall. Any help would be appreciaited. I have gotten the DecClassLoader to work(kind of) Here is my code: DexClassLoader dLoader = new DexClassLoader(/sdcard/download/ test.apk,/sdcard/ download,null,ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getParent()); Class calledClass = dLoader.loadClass(com.test.classname); Intent it=new Intent(this, calledClass); it.setClassName(com.test, com.test.classname); startActivity(it); Now I had already isntalled test.apk so wen I ran the above code it worked fine and launched the application. However I want to be able to run this without test.apk being installed already (as that would defeat the entire point of the application) . So I uninstalled it and when I ran the my app again I get this error: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.test/com.test.classname}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml.

[android-developers] Handling Unsupported Content Types in WebView
My app uses WebView to display most of its content, which it receives from various remote sources. One of the pages I load has a link to a URL that returns a PDF. The url gives no indication that it is a PDF. Only the response content type shows it. Since webview does not appear capable of displaying PDF's, the app does nothing when a user clicks on this link. I would expect there to be some method in WebViewClient that I can override to catch this, but I can't seem to find one. onReceivedError is not called. I don't believe anything else is. Is there a way I can detect this and other unsupported content types so I can at least display an error or do something? Right now the app just does nothing, which is not acceptable. Thanks!

[android-developers] JUnit Puzzle: How do I test a Service and an Application together?
I want to test a Service with my Application class pre-instantiated, a bit like what happens on a real device. My problem is I can't figure out a way to do this with the correct Application context AND having the Application being instantiated EXACTLY once. Being instantiated multiple times causes issues if there is code which uses singletons, and/or performs registrations tasks that should only be performed once. Full code for this snippet can be downloaded here: http://www.zedray.co.uk/temp/ServiceSnippet.zip My test code: = public class ServiceDemoTest extends ServiceTestCaseServiceDemo { protected final void setUp() throws Exception { /** Setup the MainApplication. **/ mApplication = (ApplicationDemo) Instrumentation.newApplication(ApplicationDemo.class, getContext()); mApplication.onCreate(); setApplication(mApplication); super.setUp(); } @Override protected final void tearDown() throws Exception { if (mApplication != null) { mApplication.onTerminate(); mApplication = null; } setApplication(null); super.tearDown(); } @MediumTest public final void testStartable() { startService(new Intent(getContext(), ServiceDemo.class)); } = This produces the following trace, which suggests that several instances of my Application are being created, or just that onCreate() is being called several times: = 05-21 16:20:43.667: INFO/ServiceSnippet(4126): ApplicationDemo.onCreate() mInstanceId[0] 05-21 16:20:46.398: INFO/ServiceSnippet(4143): ApplicationDemo.onCreate() mInstanceId[0] 05-21 16:20:46.437: INFO/ServiceSnippet(4143): ApplicationDemo.onCreate() mInstanceId[1] 05-21 16:20:46.447: INFO/ServiceSnippet(4143): ServiceDemo.onCreate() 05-21 16:20:46.447: INFO/ServiceSnippet(4143): ServiceDemo.onStart() 05-21 16:20:46.466: INFO/ServiceSnippet(4143): ApplicationDemo.onCreate() mInstanceId[2] 05-21 16:20:46.488: INFO/ServiceSnippet(4143): ApplicationDemo.onCreate() mInstanceId[3] = I have no idea why the onCreate() keeps getting called, and how to ensure it only happens once. Is this possible? Any ideas? Regards Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Questions to ask at Google I/O
If anyone is attending Google I/O, I think it would be a good time to publicly ask when Canadian developers are going to be able to sell their apps. Google should be embarrassed that they have not handled the issue after all this time. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] ServiceTestCase does not notify Observers and does not call onStartCommand
Hi, I am currently trying to test a Service class using ServiceTestCase and I am facing some problems with it. My Service class is responsible to do some queries on another application ContentProvider, updating my own application DB when the other one changes. It is like a sync service that the application depends on. The first thing I noticed while using the ServiceTestCase is that it does not call the onStartCommand method, that causes my service to not initialize itself correctly. I did that manually and everything seems to work fine, except one important part. My service ContentObservers, that are registered on the cursor returned by the queries I do when the onStartCommand runs, never gets the onChange() method called, even when I manually update the other applications database using its content provider. To check that this is not a bug of the other ContentProvider, I registered a similar ContentObserver inside my test and called notifyChange on the same URI I registered using the content resolver registerContentObserver method. The setup() and tearDown() methods just call super() and I use the getSystemContext() to retrieve the context. I am also using the default MockApplication class. Is there any known issue with ServiceTestCase that causes that? Below is a snippet of the misbehaving code. onChange log is never printed using logcat ... public void testOne() { ... Intent startServiceIntent = new Intent(ACTION); startService(startServiceIntent); // Call manually onStartCommand since it is not being called by the test case automatically getService().onStartCommand(startServiceIntent, 0, 0); Log.d(UT,testOne); mContext.getContentResolver.registerContentObserver(uri, true, new ContentObserver(new Handler()){ @Override public void onChange(boolean selfChange) { Log.d(UT,Uri observer called); } }); mContext.getContentResolver().notifyChange(uri, null, false); ... } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: eclipse upgrade now will not run emulator
I have completely re-installed eclipse and I still get the errors. It seems as if the emulator can't find the Android Virtual Devices even though when I go to the AVD Manager all of the devices are shown as available. A second error message (in addition to the jface message) is: An error has occurred. See error log for more details. java.lang.NullPointerException If I just use RUN (instead of Run Configuration) it will run an emulation.

[android-developers] Filtering Android Sensors Noise
HI, I'm programming an Augmented Reality application. It's development it's in an advanced state but I can't place the icons on the screen so still as anothers programs does (Layar, in example). This is because of the continuous variations of the sensors. I've tried the three modes of the sensors (FAST, GAME, and NORMAL) but I only get them to move more or less fast. The shivering is the same at different speed. Finally I thougth I could reach my goal with a digital filter, averaging historical values. But again the icons continues moving, specially the most far placed ones (in the z axis). Please, could some one help me with some clue? Of course, any help will be appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: getting x and y coorinates in onclick event
If I understand correctly, there wouldn't be a x/y location associated with onClick. A click is just a selection action and can be triggered through a touch or other selection method. I'm pretty sure you'd need to do it through the onTouchEvent() On May 21, 9:30 am, social hub shubem...@gmail.com wrote: In onclicklistener onclick how to get the x and y coordinates where its clicked. any one any ideas Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
