I've not heard of this issue. Is your machine fast enough.. enough memory, all that jazz? Do you have an updated win7 video driver for your video card? Very strange tho. On Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 8:43 PM, Omega wrote: > Windows 7, after lots of fiddling turns out I had to specify the > equinox laun

Re: [android-beginners] Very new - need some help.

Best option is to buy a book. There are a few good ones out there for not too much money. They'll walk you thru all the steps quite quickly. There is an online PDF book as well.. forget the name now. I got it.. it's the best I've found. Author is Mark Murphy I think it is. GL. On Fri, Jan 1, 201

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Eclipse Project Dependencies

For the original poster, your eclipse is 1.2.1? That seems wrong.. the latest is 3.5 or later. I am assuming you got that version from the about box or something and perhaps it doesn't show the actually IDE version. Anyway, the way I do this.. quite honestly.. is to NOT depend on the IDE. I instea

[android-beginners] Re: Build Log Errors In Ubuntu 9.10

I was experiencing very similar problems with eclipse on kubuntu. What I finally did that has made it possible for me to start doing some real android development is this: uninstall the eclipse packages using whatever package manager you use. install eclipse from the eclipse.org website.

[android-beginners] Android architecture.. better for one activity over multiple?

Hi all, I've been learning Android.. almost done with my 3rd book now.. have a pretty good idea of the beginner things like the life cycle, etc. One thing that kind of perplexes me is the benefits of using multiple activities each with their own lifecycle events in them. In a normal Swing, or othe

Re: [android-beginners] Re: My game force closes when calling a class i made..

I gotta be honest.. I am happy to see so many people interested in writing code for Android.. but worried.. scared even when I see posts like this where someone doesn't know Java and is trying to develop on Android. I am not trying to be a jerk at all.. but I would strongly urge you to learn the l

Annual as far as I know.. small price to pay to potentially make a lot. On Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 1:18 AM, Ari wrote: > Hi, > > I was wondering if anyone knew whether the $25 Android market > developer fee needed to be renewed annually, or if it lasts forever. > Does anyone know? > > Thanks! > > -

Re: [android-beginners] linux eclipse adt can't find valid paths

Did you download the SDKs after installing the ADT? That is a common issue I've seen. You install the ADT plugin, then you have to go into Eclipse PRefs and select Android and on the right is the SDK location field. You have to make sure you point that to your /tools folder. IF you've done that, th

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Bridging the gap between Java and Linux/C

You will need to use JNI and you'll still have to use Java. Keep in mind that Android is mostly about Java development. NDK is still fairly new and as of yet can't access many things that you can only access via Java. This is why advanced music apps, and even high quality games are tough at the mom

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Wanting to start and would like a good book. Suggestions?

I second the www.commonsware.com/android stuff. It's WELL worth $35. I've read the books you talk about, and honestly, Mark (the author) of the commons books does a better job at explaining things. You get 3 books too, not just one. Plus I believe they are updated.. although not sure if/when a noti

[android-beginners] Audio capabilities

Hey all, I have done a little searching about the capabilities of the audio in Android. I have a love for iPhone music apps like BeatMaker, iDrum, and more. I would love to work on something like this, but I fear from what I've read even in Android 2.0 there is nowhere near the capabilities on And

Re: [android-beginners] Re:

Sadly I see a lot of posts like this on various forums. I think the problem is, lots of young kids, or even some older folks that might have dabbled in some programming tend to think they can just jump in and write android apps. Like iPhone, these are the same people that often release crap to the
