[android-developers] kSOAP XmlPullParserException
Hey Guys,
I'm stumped on a problem trying to consume a ColdFusion SOAP service in
Android using kSOAP. Here is my java code for invoking one of them test
methods I've written in ColdFusion (which only returns a string):
---
private static final String NAMESPACE =
> "http://www.sub.tv/MyService.cfc?WSDL";;
> private static String URL = "http://www.sub.tv/MyService.cfc";;
> private static final String METHOD_NAME = "TestMethod";
> private static final String SOAP_ACTION =
> "http://www.sub.tv/MyService.cfc?method=TestMethod";;
>
public void GetData() {
>
SoapPrimitive resultstring = null;
> SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME);
>
PropertyInfo inputArgs = new PropertyInfo();
> inputArgs.setName("ID");
> inputArgs.setValue(1234);
> inputArgs.setType(Integer.class);
> request.addProperty(inputArgs);
>
> SoapSerializationEnvelope soapenvelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope
> (SoapEnvelope.VER11);
> soapenvelope.dotNet = false;
> soapenvelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);
> AndroidHttpTransport httptransport = new AndroidHttpTransport(URL);
> //httptransport.debug = true;
>
try {
> httptransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, soapenvelope);
> resultstring = (SoapPrimitive) soapenvelope.getResponse();
>
> } catch (Exception e) {
> Log.d(DEBUG, e.getMessage());
> }
}
---
And here is the ColdFusion test method I've written that only returns a
string:
--
http://www.sub.tv";>
>
description="Test Method">
>
>
>
>
>
>
--
The error I'm getting when I execute the above Java code is as follows:
> org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: expected: START_TAG {
> http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Envelope (position:START_TAG
> @2:44 in java.io.InputStreamReader@40ff5440)
I suspect the cause of the problem is perhaps the URL I've specified in the
SOAP_ACTION but, as far as I know, that's the correct way to invoke a
ColdFusion SOAP web service method. Executing that URL in the browser
returns the expected results. I've tried excluding the manual method call
in the query string of that URL but I still get the same error.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks for your time.

[android-developers] Re: Socket sharing between activities
Hi guys,
Thanks to everyone for the prompt responses. I've studied up on
Services / IntentServices as well as how I would go about using a
Singleton to satisfy my goal and have decided to give both a try to
take the experiential learning route. I've started with Services and
have managed to get my app working like it should with binding an
activity in view with the Service running my network thread. I have a
bug though which I'm having trouble resolving in activity 'A' I'm
using the bindService method to start my service so as to communicate
back and forth between the Service and the activity. I've created my
service connection like so:
private CallBackActivityAInterface _service = null;
private ServiceConnection serviceConnection = new ServiceConnection()
{
public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className, IBinder
binder) {
_service = (CallBackActivityAInterface)binder;
_service.registerActivityACallBack(activityACallBack);
}
public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName className) {
_service = null;
}
}
In my onServiceConnected method above I pass in a call back instance
to the service so it can communicate with activity A from the network
worker thread it is running which is waiting for incoming tcp data.
This is what the CallBackActivityAInterface implementation looks like
in activity A:
private CallBackActivityAInterface activityACallBack = new
CallBackActivityAInterface() {
@Override
public void receivedData() {
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Log.d(DEBUG, "hoorah we have a
response");
}
});
}
};
This works fine, when I invoke _activityACallBack.receivedData() in my
service from within the worker thread that's waiting for tcp data I
get my debug output above. It's worth noting for clarification sake
that the callback instance I pass in to my
_service.registerActivityACallBack(..) method in my service is
assigned to a global variable of type CallBackActivityAInterface
within my service class.
In activity B I have the same sort of implementation as you see above
where I create it's own service connection instance and pass in a
callback to the service so it can communicate with activity B. When I
navigate to activity B from activity A, I first unbind my service
connection from the running service in activity A and then use the
bindService method in activity B with it's own service connection.
The issue I'm having is the callback instance I'm sending through to
the service in activity B's onServiceConnected method is null when I
try use it from within the worker thread that is currently running in
the service. This is the callback implementation I have in activity
B:
private CallBackActivityBInterface _service = null;
private ServiceConnection serviceConnection = new ServiceConnection()
{
public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName className, IBinder
binder) {
_service = (CallBackActivityBInterface)binder;
_service.registerActivityBCallBack(activityBCallBack);
}
public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName className) {
_service = null;
}
}
private CallBackActivityBInterface activityBCallBack = new
CallBackActivityBInterface() {
@Override
public void receivedDataInActivityB() {
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Log.d(DEBUG, "hoorah we have a response
in activity B");
}
});
}
};
Stepping through the code reveals that activityBCallBack is not null
when I inspect it within _service.registerActivityBCallBack(..),
however the global variable I assign activityBCallBack to in my
_service.registerActivityBCallBack(..) method is null when I try use
it from within my worker thread that is already running. Any idea why
this would be null?
I suspect it may be null because the worker thread is started before
activity B has a chance to populate the private global variable with
activityBCallBack so it can be used to communicate with activity B.
But I most certainly do populate the global callback instance the
worker thread is trying to access before it tries to use it.
I've used the following project as a guide:

Many thanks for the help!

[android-developers] Socket sharing between activities
Hi Everyone, I'm building an Android app which uses TCP sockets to communicate with a .net server application. The android app as a whole relies quite heavily on TCP and as such nearly all the features in the app require writing to and listening from a socket stream. I'm trying to determine what the best design approach is for having more than one activity utilize a live active socket. I've recently just finished building an iPhone version of this app, the way in which I got each feature (different view controllers) to use one live active socket connection was by passing the live socket instance to each view controller, each view controller would then retain ownership of that socket and as such the delegate methods which fire when a transmission is received work as expected. Trying to simulate this design in Android is proving to be a pain because I can't pass a live socket instance to another activity as part of an intent parameter. If I wanted to have activity A listen for incoming TCP data, and then navigate to Activity B but then have activity B send TCP data to the .net server and of-course spawn a new thread to listen for incoming TCP data - what would be the best approach to achieve this? At the moment what I have is as follows: activity A spawns a new thread listening for incoming TCP data, activity A can communicate with the .net server perfectly fine. When I navigate to activity B and then want to communicate with the .net server - creating a new socket instance and then listening for incoming data results in activity A's readLine() method receiving the data. Which makes sense, it's still running - but obviously the goal is to have activity B receive this data. An alternative approach I tried was to close down the TCP socket I have in activity A when opening up another TCP socket connection when I need to use TCP in activity B - although this somewhat works it really feels like the wrong way to go about it. And lastly, one other approach I've thought of is to have one activity handling all TCP comms with the .net server and contain all the functionality in this one activity by swapping out .xml layout files when necessary. Obviously this will result in one massive .java file and again is a route which feels wrong. Any advice on how I can go about designing my app given that I want to use TCP functionality in every activity would be greatly appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: TCP Socket communication between C# and Android
Thanks for the responses. Serene is spot on, sending a newline
character does the trick. My while loop continues execution if a
newline character is received and within the while loop I added a
check for this and break out of it to continue code execution. Thank
you all again for the help!

[android-developers] TCP Socket communication between C# and Android
Hi Everyone,
I have a .net c# application acting as a server listening on a
particular port, and an Android app that I'm building acting as the
client which will connect and send / receive tcp messages to / from
the .net server application. I have it working at the moment but am
faced with a challenge that I'm hoping has a better solution than the
one I've implemented. My Android app connects to the .net server
fine, upon successfully connecting the .net application sends back a
tcp message - my Android app receives this message but it won't
continue code execution whilst it's reading the connected stream
unless I close the network stream in the .net server application.
Below is the bit of code which handles reading / writing to the
network stream:
out = new PrintWriter( new BufferedWriter( new
OutputStreamWriter(socketObj.getOutputStream())), true);
in = new BufferedReader( new
InputStreamReader( socketObj.getInputStream()));
out.printLn("my command");
String text = "";
String responseStr = "";
while ((text = in.readLine()) != null) {
responseStr += text;
}
So the while loop above continues to execute until I close the network
stream in the .net app. Is there some way of specifying to the
Android / Java network stream that the data being sent has ended so it
can break out that while loop and continue code execution apart from
closing down the network stream on the .net side?
Thanks for the help.

[android-developers] Re: InflateException: Error inflating class issue
I believe I've found what the issue is. After taking a closer look at LogCat I noticed there was a FileNotFound exception further down the stack, which makes no sense because the files are there - so I decided to move all my mdpi files into a folder named simply 'drawable' - and that sorted out the error, app seems to be working fine now. I presume the ldpi/mdpi/hdpi named drawable folders weren't used in in Android os versions prior to and including 2.0? Anyway hope this helps someone.

[android-developers] InflateException: Error inflating class issue
Hi Everyone, I have an app which I'm testing out on Android 2.0 (emulator) that's currently throwing me an error - of which I've found the cause. The error is: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #7: Error inflating class This error is being thrown when my activity tries to inflate a layout file with background images in it. If I remove the background images from the elements within that layout file, I don't get the error anymore and my layout file get's loaded into view - only without the artwork ofcourse. I've googled around and have found other instances of this error being caused by the size of the images used being too large. My background images aren't large at all, kb sizes are as follows for the largest background image in that layout file: hdpi: 102kb mdpi: 66.2kb ldpi: 66.2kb I have three other images in the layout file that don't exceed 14kb in size. I've tried removing the largest image in the layout file to see if the others which are a lot less in size would still cause this error to be thrown and unfortunately it does. Worth mentioning that I don't have this problem on Android 2.0.1 and above, and all my images are pngs. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: map does not displaying in device
Ratheesh didn't indicate if he's prepping his app for release, if he is then of-course, don't set the application's debuggable property to true. He can do so though if he's still testing, in my case it was the quickest way to accurately test my implementation for retrieving a users location.

[android-developers] Re: map does not displaying in device
Hi Ratheesh, I've been having the same problem, up until a few minutes ago when I sorted it out. The way in which I resolved this issue was by making sure the debuggable property of my application tag in AndroidManifest.xml is set to true - you can also do this by going to the Application tab in your AndroidManifest.xml file and setting debuggable to true. Uninstall your .apk file using the settings feature of your device, and clean your project. Power down your device and start it back up. Then try debugging your app again on the device. Hope that helps. Cheers.

[android-developers] Re: MapView Tiles not loading on my device, they are in my emulator
Hi TreKing,
Thanks for the response. After checking my application tag to see if
"debuggable=true" was there I actually didn't have it in there, after
putting it in I still can't get my map tiles to load on my device
using my debug api key (I cleaned my project, uninstalled my app from
the phone using settings to make sure the updated .apk file was being
transferred).
Is it even possible to debug the map view on a device using a debug
api key? I'm under the impression that it is as I didn't see anything
in the Google instructions where it states that you need to use a
release key to load map tiles on a device.
Just so I understand your last comment about release mode: in order
to switch to release mode, is taking out the "debuggable=true" all
that is needed?
Thanks, any help is greatly appreciated.

[android-developers] MapView Tiles not loading on my device, they are in my emulator
Hi Everyone, I'm currently building an app which utilizes the mapView component - I've gotten to the point where I need to test on an actual device but unfortunately the mapView tiles won't load. Steps I took to get to this point are as follows: I followed the instruction on the 'Obtaining a Maps API Key' Google web page and retrieved an API key using an MD5 fingerprint from my debug certificate. Pasted it into the android:apiKey property of my mapView and fired up my emulator. Works perfectly - mapView tiles load as expected. Without touching my project, I tried debugging on the device and doing so results in the tiles of my mapView not loading at all. The device I'm testing on is an LG GT540 running Android 2.1-update1. Can anyone shed some light as to what it is that I'm missing to get the mapView tiles to load on my device for testing? Many thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
