Re: [android-beginners] Re: Missing/Hidden/Dissappearing Button problem
Man... I am stumped here. I have no idea what the problem could be. Just out of curiosity (I can't imagine this would be the cause of the problem), is there a reason that your image is 8 pixels larger than the size of your button? -- There are only 10 types of people in the world...

[android-beginners] Database version is zero on initial install
I have released an app (World Time) with initial database. Now i want to
update the app with a database upgrade.
I have put in the upgrade code in OnUpgrade() and checking for the
newVersion. But it was not being called in my local testing...
So i put in the debug statement to get the database version and it is zero .
Any idea why it is not being versioned ?
Following is the code to copy the database from my Assets folder ...
*
InputStream myInput = myContext.getAssets().open(DB_NAME);
// Path to the just created empty db
String outFileName = DB_PATH + DB_NAME;
//Open the empty db as the output stream
OutputStream myOutput = new FileOutputStream(outFileName);
//transfer bytes from the inputfile to the outputfile
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int length;
while ((length = myInput.read(buffer))0){
myOutput.write(buffer, 0, length);
}
//Close the streams
myOutput.flush();
myOutput.close();
myInput.close();**
*

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Can a full app (not widget) be postage stamp size?
Mark, et al
Thanks for that. Perhaps not the best way, but I am still trying to get the
Intent-Method to work.
Aside: In experimenting, I can receive android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE
(but not my broadcast).
The app sends the Intent, but the widget never shows Log.d() in
MyIntentReceiver.java.
Q: Do I need the meta tag?
Q: Do I need a permissions tag?
Thanks for continued help.
