Re: [android-developers] Re: How to start again if some third party task killer has killed my app ?
The question is not limited only about force close errors. It is more about the sudden death of the application which can happen because of so many reasons. In which I want to handle Force close when user goes to the *Settings - Applications - my App* and clicks *Force Close* and When some task killer App *kills* my App. By no means I intended to handle Force Close errors generated by some errors / bugs, they must be faced and solved instead of hiding from them.

Re: [android-developers] How to solve the issue with Dalvik compiler limitation on 64K methods?
I presume that there's a recipe for that, though I do not know what it is. The right answer to your problem (the application architecture should probably be restructured) is one you discarded. Any solution to work around this problem temporarily may come with side effects, such as having to drop debug/run builds within the IDE temporarily. Software development does not require an IDE or debug builds.

[android-developers] Is there a way to dismiss the Contextual Action Bar (CAB) menu?
I have an app with a series of files in being shown via an Activity. Each
file has a checkbox.
If the user clicks any of the chedckboxes, I bring up the CAB menu for the
user to operate
on the file. My onClickListener starts things, and, I was hoping, could
dismiss the CAB if
the checkboxes are all unchecked.
private OnClickListener clickChange = new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// check to see if SelectAll checkbox was selected
Boolean state = false;
/*
snip
*/
// Start the CAB using the ActionMode.Callback defined above if
anything is selected
if (anyChecked()) { //
mActionMode =
showFileActivity.this.startActionMode(mActionModeCallback);
}
else if (mActionMode != null) {
mActionMode = null;
}
}
};
Simply setting mActionMode to null won't clear the CAB. Any ideas on
what/how to dismiss the CAB
when the user has un-selected everything?
