Re: [android-developers] Re: how do i know if i am on road between two points in android
This is really easy if you use your own server. Simply store lat/long values for the points you'd like. To get points near another point construct a lat/long perimeter around it. Basically, like a rectangle you'll have a start x,y lat/long pair and an end lat/long pair. You can then query your database to pull points within that perimeter. I suck at math so I used: http://search.cpan.org/~asp/Geo-Calc-0.04/lib/Geo/Calc.pm Some APIs may offer something like this. FYI, as other have pointed out. This has little to nothing to do with Android. Everyone has given you good tips, but come back with Android specific questions plz.

[android-developers] pausing games: dealing with Handler Messages timers
Hello, I have an android game which uses timers to update the screen sprites. When the user wishes to pause the screen I have to know which timers are pending and how long is missing before their expiration time. So this means I have to maintain separate data structures for each Handler to keep track of: A. when the timer is set (timerSetTime) with System.nanoTime() and B. how long before it expires (timerExpirationLength) so that when the user pauses the game screen I cancel all timers and then when the user unpauses for each paused timer I compute unpauseTime = System.nanoTime() and then reset each timer to timerExpirationLength - unpauseTime + timerSetTime and then when each timer expires unload the corresponding (timerSetTime and timerExpirationLength) data structure entry in the Handler subclass. OK, I have described my solution to the problem. The android Handler system does not seem to provide a custom solution to this problem so I had to implement my own code. If anyone has a better solution to the problem of dealing with game state timers when the game is paused (so that they are saved as part of the game state) I'd like to hear your alternative solutions.

Re: [android-developers] pausing games: dealing with Handler Messages timers
Why are you using timers? That seems needlessly complicated. Use a game loop that keeps a constant frame rate. Maintain state in your sprite objects, use the game loop to update this state. Then on a separate draw loop draw the sprite according to its state. Then you dont have to worry about weird sync issues.

[android-developers] Re: multitouch support again...
It works because returning true signals that the event has been consumed. That's the signal for the parent ViewGroup to set this view as a target. As a result, the pointer multitouch events are delivered to this target view. I think, the corresponding code is in ViewGroup.dispatchTouchEvent. You might want to take a look...

Re: [android-developers] Tabed pane Help
Not sure if this helps but have you tried implementing a class to hold your data? In the listener for your tabbed panes then read or write the data when the tabs are clicked. I think you might want to look at: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TabWidget.html and in particular setOnClickListenerhttp://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#setOnClickListener%28android.view.View.OnClickListener%29 (View.OnClickListenerhttp://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.OnClickListener.htmll) That should get you started.

[android-developers] FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION after several hours
Hey guys, I'm running out of ideas and could not find any help by searching the web so I'm trying to get some help this way. It's like this: We have an application, that basically consists of one service and one activity. The activity binds to the service and keeps the Binder reference that is passed by the onServiceConnected method. Through this reference the Activity can access some objects that are held by the service. The service, however, only updates the Activity by using the Messenger/Handler concept described here http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals/bound-services.html (Using a Messenger). The application runs for several (5 to 10) hours and then it freezes. During the whole time, nobody touched the phone. I can still use home and power buttons and sometimes the ANR dialog comes up but not until I touched the screen or changed the orientation. The logcat then shows FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION every some milliseconds but nothing else that could help me. The custom log from the service tells me that the onPause, onStop, onDestroy methods were not called and no uncaught exception was fired as I registered a handler to this event. As it takes so long for the error to occur, I have not been able to see it happening in the log. Before going into further details of the architecture: - what are the basic rules to obey to not run into that error? I have read that I should not keep Context objects as members. What about the service? Some classes that are instantiated by the service needs access to the context to e.g. get a system service. Therefore the service implements an interface that it passed to those created objects and, of course, they keep it as a member. Do I need to avoid that? - I included a thread that asks the ActivityManager for lowMemory state on regular bases but that did never occur, so I ruled out Memory leaks ... for now. - The application is not handling large images or large byte arrays. - The service (or subclasses) registers receiver to the Battery and Time changed events and also requests location updates from GPS. Any known problems with that? - I tested the application on 4 different phones, 3 HTC sensation and 1 HTC Desire HD. It's the same on every phone. - I am using monodroid from xamarin (http://android.xamarin.com/ Welcome) - please don't tell me to not use it. I know it is not the best approach but in my company we don't have another option right now. Still, any known problems relating to it? I really hope someone has an idea and thanks in advance for reading Christian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] How to prevent webview click through to Google Maps?
I have a WebView app, and in my app there's an address string like: div b1022 Cole Street/b San Francisco, CA /div I have a JS listener for clicks on that DIV, but it looks like Android is intercepting it and taking me to Google Maps for that address.

[android-developers] Unexpected NoSaveStateFrameLayout with support Fragment
I'm using the v4 support package to get Fragment support in older
devices. I've got a fragment that I would like to include in an
Activity, and I've done the following:
1. Added the fragment to the Activity's XML layout via a fragment
tag.
2. Added a layout for the fragment in my res/layouts/ folder.
3. Added some Java code for my fragment (included below)
#1 and #2 appear to be working, but #3 gives me an error when I try to
call getView():
public class MyFragment extends Fragment {
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup
container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.awesome_layout, container,
false);
return view;
}
public void update() {
TextView name = (TextView) getView().findViewById(R.id.nameView);
name.setText(An awesome name!);
}
}
Specifically, I get back an
android.support.v4.app.NoSaveStateFrameLayout object from getView(),
when I'm expecting the view I inflated to be returned (or at least
null to tell me I messed up). I call the update() method in my
Activity's onCreate() method, after calling setContentLayout(). I've
also tried calling update() well after my Activity has been created
and hanging around for a while, but I get the same behavior.
Does anyone have any pointers as to why I might be getting a different
object back from getView()?
Thanks,
Randy

[android-developers] Bind to service synchronously in local service scenario
I was wondering if there was any technique to bind to a local service synchronously. Of course if the service was remote it would be an especially bad idea, but binding to a local service seems to happen quickly. The situation i often run into is that ServiceConnection.onServiceConnected() isn't called at a convenient time. For example, if you want to invoke a method on a local service in onActivityResult() but bind/unbind on onStart/onStop. The service still won't be available by the time onActivityResult() is called. I did come across this: http://code.google.com/p/google-cache-invalidation-api/source/browse/trunk/src/java/com/google/ipc/invalidation/external/client/android/service/ServiceBinder.java Which uses a CountdownLatch to gate the calling thread, but my attempts to use it have resulted in deadlock. I even tried binding to the service from another thread, hoping that ServiceConnection.onServiceConnected() would be called from the thread which called bindService, but this does not seem to be the case.

Re: [android-developers] pausing games: dealing with Handler Messages timers
Well, having neat code is pretty useless in a game is you are going have
sync issues.
Furthermore, it's standard to have a game loop and a draw loop.
Plus, you are adding the overhead of using message queues. Also, if you
are launching or using a thread for each sprite the game is going to slow
down significantly from all the overhead.

Re: [android-developers] Re: About Phone GAP
It's ok for what it is. But, it's just all the layers of abstraction in HTML/JS that make it really slow. I doubt they will gain much more speed on mobile devices, perhaps by using hardware acceleartion. In either case, it's slow and it looks and feels like crap.

Re: [android-developers] Bind to service synchronously in local service scenario
That code has an interesting thing in it: /** The maximum amount of time to wait (milliseconds) for a successful binding to the service */ private static final int CONNECTION_TIMEOUT = 60 * 1000; And then: connectLatch.await(CONNECTION_TIMEOUT, TimeUnit.SECONDS); So it waits 60 thousand seconds, or about 16,6 hours for the service binding to happen. I think that's a bit excessive, unless called on a very heavily loaded Android device. It should be possible to follow the general idea, as long as you're careful with what thread you're on - but that strikes me as an ugly hack. Can you bind in onCreate and unbind in onDestroy for this particular activity? Also, if the service is local, and already started at some earlier time, well, local means within the same Java VM, so you can just store the service instance in some global somewhere. That too would be a hack, but less ugly and prone to breakage than trying to hammer an event-driven system into a synchronous sequence by playing games with threads and the message loop. -- Kostya 3 декабря 2011 г. 2:04 пользователь goosedroid alexrhel...@gmail.comнаписал: I was wondering if there was any technique to bind to a local service synchronously.

I didn't say that nothing applies, I said that a 1996 book is essentially useless. Does it even mention nested classes, which IIRC didn't exist in Java in 1996? You underestimate the changes. Java 1.1 was pretty much a different language from 1.0, adding inner classes and reflection. 1.2 introduced significant library changes. 1.4 brought in a new keyword, NIO, and other changes. Java 5 once again pretty much reinvented the language, and changed the fundamental memory model. You would do well not to be so dismissive of accurate information.

I have been unable to find any related posts on their site and was wondering if maybe any one else had any useful information about this. I use it to retrieve the county a certain city is in.

Re: [android-developers] Re: About Phone GAP
Hi All, The thing is that Phonegap and Sencha/JQuery mobile are not the same. Phonegap is a framework which extends Android Webview. Sencha/JQMob provides a wrapper to HTML/CSS to make it UX friendly. I have used phonegap to run applications on Android before I started with native programming. Phonegap cloud build is good place to hold source code and to build apps for different platforms. But it doesn't mean that PhoneGap is the only solution to develop cross platform mobile applications!!! AnscaMobile's corona is a far more effective way. Even though they only priced options and package becomes heavier, it is professionally written - even for gaming! Anyway, I dont like PhoneGap or Corona just because of their poor performance over native or NDK applications on Android. Regards On Sat, Dec 3, 2011 at 3:42 AM, Miguel Morales therevolti...@gmail.comwrote: It's ok for what it is. But, it's just all the layers of abstraction in HTML/JS that make it really slow. I doubt they will gain much more speed on mobile devices, perhaps by using hardware acceleartion. In either case, it's slow and it looks and feels like crap. But it's perfect for simple apps, users just want things that work. Although they prefer things that work well.

Re: [android-developers] how i use google app engine for android
Hi Yesh, GAE is a perfect place to run computationally heavy applications. GAE instances are completely self managed cloud servers. It is not clear that why do you want to use GAE for your application anyway. GAE servers respond the same way as other web-servers do. But GAE is much reliable and easy to use. Coding and deployment and even version controlling is easy as we speak on GAE. If you want to know more about how to use it, deploy - you can directly contact me as this list is specifically for Android threads. I hope you know how to make an http client in Android by the way!

[android-developers] Is useful testing actually possible?
I've been developing in Java for several years and love TDD. I'm fairly new to developing for Android and am having to spend lots of time understanding how to test drive my Android development. Why aren't there any useful tests for the examples that get promoted? IOSched, for example, has 78 classes. How many tests does it have? NONE! Actually it does have a directory called tests.old. Let's look in there... How many tests are there? Seven...YES, just SEVEN! What do those tests actually test? Four of them test a utility class that parses XML. What about the other three? They test how to get those XML records from a Provider and then mindlessly goes through checking lots of strings and other entries match. One test is 160 lines long and has about 90 asserts! Where are the tests for the Activities, the Fragments and all those other Android components? Why aren't we seeing a decent set of tests included with these examples? Does anyone know how to write decent unit tests for Android? Is this why we aren't seeing any examples with useful tests? Is it because no-one knows how to write useful tests? I have read in many other locations there are various TestCases available for testing applications but where are some useful examples for someone new to developing on Android? I think this goes some way to explaining why there are many bad practices in the Android examples and the API itself. The number of bad smells in the code - static variables, feature envy, public member variables, reliance on inheritance over composition. The list goes on. It's as if we were back in the mid-nineties. I think the lack of tests we're seeing is because the API wasn't developed using tests. It wasn't designed for use and now it's difficult to test. I hope I get lots of people able to prove me wrong on this who have useful tests based around ActivityUnitTestCase, some of the Instrumentation test cases and using many of the mock objects that are available. Are we going to start seeing some tests being provided with these example apps? In the meantime, can anyone point me in the direction of some useful, but elusive, examples?
