[android-beginners] Re: Get arguments from another activity
The usage of intents is a little bit more complex and there are
different options available how to communicate between your two
activities.
Try to understand the basics of intents (action, data, ...)
Basics:
- http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html
When you start another Activity you have to decide how you want to
communicate back to the calling activity. Please, get familiar with
Start other activities:startActivity(Intent) and
startActivityForResult
- http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Activity.html)
Also get some understanding how to write your Manifest to use intents
correctly. Check out the following link:
- http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/intent-filter-element.html

Hi,
I try to get the value of a parameter from another activity, but can't
succeed in doing that. I found things about putExtra/getExtra, but
couldn't get it to work unfortunately.
Problem:
I've got a TabActivity called methodes, which has a TabHost. The
contents of the Tabs are activities, and I need to retrieve in these
activities the value of maValeur (which is actually a
ArrayListString). My application is net.sebeto.android.essai.
public class Methodes extends TabActivity
{
public static ArrayListString maValeur;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
// I initialize maValeur, ...
(...)
// MethTab2 will be the content of the second tab
Intent Tab2 = new Intent(this, MethTab2.class);
Tab2.putStringArrayListExtra
(net.sebeto.android.essai.Methodes.maValeur, maValeur);
TabHost host = getTabHost();
(...)
host.addTab(host.newTabSpec(two).setIndicator
(Valeur).setContent(Tab2));
}
}
Now:
public class MethTab2 extends Activity
{
private ArrayListString maValeurBis;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// How to get the value of maValeur??
// I found no way to use getStringArrayList?
// maValeurBis = savedInstanceState.getStringArrayList
(net.sebeto.android.cuisine.Methodes.maValeur); crashes, ...
// I can get the value with maValeurBis =
Methodes.maValeur; but I'm not sure that it's
// a good way to do it, is it? It works, but... do you
think it's a good method?
maValeurAdapter = new ArrayAdapterString(this,
R.layout.methtab2,maValeurBis);
ListView list = new ListView(this);
list.setAdapter(maValeurAdapter);
list.setSelector(android.R.color.transparent);
setContentView(list);
}
}
Thank you for your answers, I'm a perfect beginner in java and in
android... If someone could give me a code which would work it would
be great! I know that it's probably very simple but...

[android-beginners] Why does using People._COUNT cause IllegalArgumentException to be thrown?
Hello,
I am learning about Content Providers, and tried the example from the
official Android tutorial on the topic. Please see the code below:
package com.example.devguide;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.ContentUris;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.provider.Contacts.People;
import android.util.Log;
public class ContentProviderExamples extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
/* Use the ContentUris method to produce the base URI
* for the contact with _ID == 23. */
Uri myPerson = ContentUris.withAppendedId( People.CONTENT_URI, 23 );
/* Alternatively, use the Uri method to produce the base URI. */
myPerson = Uri.withAppendedPath( People.CONTENT_URI, 23 );
/* Query this particular record. */
Cursor c = managedQuery( myPerson, null, null, null, null );
/* Form an array specifying which columns to return. */
String[] projection = new String[] { People._ID,
//People._COUNT, //throws
IllegalArgumentException
People.NAME,
People.NUMBER };
Log.i( CPE, projection[] = + projection );
/* Get the base URI for the People table in the Contacts content
provider. */
Uri contacts = People.CONTENT_URI;
/* Construct the query. */
Cursor managedCursor = managedQuery( contacts,
projection,
null,
null,
People.NAME + ASC );
showColumnData( managedCursor );
Log.i( CPE, End of current code );
}
private void showColumnData( Cursor c ) {
if ( c.moveToFirst() ) {
String name;
String phoneNumber;
String imagePath;
int nameColumn = c.getColumnIndex( People.NAME );
int phoneColumn = c.getColumnIndex( People.NUMBER );
do {
/* Obtain the field values. */
name = c.getString( nameColumn );
phoneNumber = c.getString( phoneColumn );
Log.d( CPE, name = + name + , phone = + phoneNumber
);
} while ( c.moveToNext() );
}
}
}
However, the example given did not work, because calling managedQuery with
the array projection as one of the arguments resulted in a
IllegalArgumentException (java.lang.IllegalArgumentException). Android says
that the column _count which is the value of the element People._COUNT in
array projection is invalid. Can anyone explain to me the reason for this
exception, even though the names of all the columns are as per the API
specification?
Please see the output of LogCat below:
08-26 12:06:20.330: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1112): java.lang.RuntimeException:
Unable to start activity
ComponentInfo{com.example.devguide/com.example.devguide.ContentProviderExamples}:

On Aug 25, 4:41 pm, Xavier Ducrohet x...@android.com wrote: I see that you have changed the location of the user folders (in S: instead of C:) There are user folders on both S: and C:. Only the Desktop and My Documents special folders are on S:. Everything else (including App Data) is on C:. [The documents are shared between operating systems on different partitions] Android (or Eclipse?) has been the only thing to use S:. When the user location is not the default one, we have seen some cases where windows reports the location of the user folder differently depending on which API you use (the command line tool and Eclipse use a Java API, while the emulator use a windows C++ API). That would explain why the command line tools and Eclipse could see my_avd just fine, but the emulator could not find it. But, shouldn't Android be set up to use HOMEDRIVE/HOMEPATH? Standard environment variables. You can override the behavior of both by declaring an environment variable called ANDROID_SDK_HOME Make it point to your HOME folder (S:\Documents and Settings\Phoenix\ in this case) and both the emulator and the java based tools will read and write into the same folder. Xav How did Android end up using S: in the first place? At that time, couldn't it set up it's own ANDROID_SDK_HOME variable to explicitly say which directory it would be using? (Of course, if it used HOMEDRIVE/HOMEPATH this would be unnecessary.) Also, a single line in the installation instructions could have prevented this confusion. When Android can see the AVD from the command line and the Eclipse gui, but not from the emulator, and no explanation is given (especially on the first test project), it's ... disheartening. In any event, with the ANDROID_SDK_HOME variable set to the S: home (which is not the real home directory, that is on C:), the emulator now works. Thank you, Xav. Hopefully if other people experience this odd problem, they will find this solution.

[android-beginners] Re: Additional Contact Information
Sorry for not being specific enough. I meant to duplicate the code of the existing contacts app and modify it to fit your needs. What you are hitting on here is one of the many wonderful, groundbreaking ideas about Android. Because Android is so Open, 3rd party apps developed by non-google developers are treated exactly the same as apps created by Google. All Android 3rd party apps have access to all the same apis and system resources that the Android Apps created by Google have access to. Android 3rd party apps are treated with the same priority as Android apps created by Google. Then when your modified Contacts app is finished and loaded on your Android phone, you can specify within Android that you want your Contacts app instead of the google contacts app to be used as the default contacts app on the phone through intent receivers. If you choose, you could also remove the default contacts app from the phone after testing yours and making sure it works properly. In comparison, the iPhone for example, it has 3rd party apps, but these 3rd party apps are hobbled in the manner of they are sandboxed away from many of the system resources and apis that are available to Apple developer iPhone apps. They are also treated with a lower priority than the Apple developer iPhone apps. I hope this helps make it clearer. -Original Message- From: android-beginners@googlegroups.com [mailto:android-beginn...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of King of Camelot Sent: Wednesday, August 26, 2009 6:31 AM To: Android Beginners Subject: [android-beginners] Re: Additional Contact Information Sorry, could you be a bit more specific? By 'modify the current contacts app' do you mean duplicate the code in my application? If so, that sounds kind of like option three. If you mean modify the contacts app by itself, then I'm not sure how this would work in the case of my application. I'm under the assumption that the application which users will download comes as a single APK, and as such couldn't really modify the contacts app, unless it re-directed it to the APK for my application? Unless I'm missing something? Thanks! Sorry if I'm missing something. On Aug 25, 4:36 pm, tinyang tiny...@earthlink.net wrote: Hello Sire :) I'm new to Android too, but it sounds like the first option is certainly do-able.

New to Android, so I'm just trying to get a grasp of what's possible for an application and what's not. Let's say for example I wanted to add a 'Favorite Food Type' drop-down box to the contact view UI. This way when you add new contacts, or modify old ones, you can select a favorite food type for that individual, that the application I'm making would then use to display all individuals who like the food type you're currently craving. (Just an example application) And just to clarify, by the contact view UI, I mean the interface you see when you go to contacts and select an individual. In other words, the screen that lets you modify their contact information. Now, would it be possible for an application to insert this drop-down box into the default contact view UI? Or would the application need to show all contacts itself and force the user to do the food type selections in the application? The first options is preferable. If that isn't possible, there's also a third potential option where the application overrides the default contact view UI with it's own. Anybody know which of these is possible, and how to implement?

[android-beginners] Re: what is the fast way to save/load string from/in an array?
Instead of using Strings, try to use StringBuffer. Normally the usage
of StringBuffer's is more efficient than normal Strings.
By the way for analyzing your code to find out where you spend most of
the time, use the traceview tool.

[android-beginners] Re: backgroundservice
i want to develop an application which checks periodically for new data on a server over a http-connection. Should i do this in a Thread or is it better to do this in a service? Both. Use a service that does the work in an AsyncTask or other form of background thread. The checking should also continue when the user is going back to the Android-Main-Menu, that means the user is exiting the Activity, and when he starts the Activity again it can work with the collected data. As far as i read, is this feature only possible with remote-Services, so that i must use Inter-Process-Communication? No. Have your activity call startService() to start up the service to do the HTTP operation. Then, when the service is done with the HTTP, have it call stopSelf() to shut itself down. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books.html --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Beginners group.

1) How can I tell if my Java code is running in the Android environment? I have some code that is shared by Android and non- Android applications and I want to be able to adjust to either environment dynamically. One possibility would be to use reflection to look up a class in an android.* namespace. 2) Is there a way to get access to the Command Line arguments that were used to launch the application my Activity (or Service, etc.) is running under? AFAIK, there are no command line arguments, because there is no command line.

The usage of intents is a little bit more complex and there are

Try to understand the basics of intents (action, data, ...)
Basics:

When you start another Activity you have to decide how you want to
communicate back to the calling activity. Please, get familiar with
Start other activities:startActivity(Intent) and
startActivityForResult

Hi,
I try to get the value of a parameter from another activity, but can't
succeed in doing that. I found things about putExtra/getExtra, but
couldn't get it to work unfortunately.
Problem:
I've got a TabActivity called methodes, which has a TabHost. The
contents of the Tabs are activities, and I need to retrieve in these
activities the value of maValeur (which is actually a
ArrayListString). My application is net.sebeto.android.essai.
public class Methodes extends TabActivity
{
public static ArrayListString maValeur;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
// I initialize maValeur, ...
(...)
// MethTab2 will be the content of the second tab
Intent Tab2 = new Intent(this, MethTab2.class);
Tab2.putStringArrayListExtra
(net.sebeto.android.essai.Methodes.maValeur, maValeur);
TabHost host = getTabHost();
(...)
host.addTab(host.newTabSpec(two).setIndicator
(Valeur).setContent(Tab2));
}
}
Now:
public class MethTab2 extends Activity
{
private ArrayListString maValeurBis;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// How to get the value of maValeur??
// I found no way to use getStringArrayList?
// maValeurBis = savedInstanceState.getStringArrayList
(net.sebeto.android.cuisine.Methodes.maValeur); crashes, ...
// I can get the value with maValeurBis =
Methodes.maValeur; but I'm not sure that it's
// a good way to do it, is it? It works, but... do you
think it's a good method?
maValeurAdapter = new ArrayAdapterString(this,
R.layout.methtab2,maValeurBis);
ListView list = new ListView(this);
list.setAdapter(maValeurAdapter);
list.setSelector(android.R.color.transparent);
setContentView(list);
}
}
Thank you for your answers, I'm a perfect beginner in java and in
android... If someone could give me a code which would work it would
be great! I know that it's probably very simple but...

What is the accepted/common practice for code to post messages between objects in the Android environment? Um, there is not really an analogue of PostMessage() in Java. View has post() and postDelayed(), but those are designed to simply arrange for a Runnable to be executed on the UI thread. Can we back up a step or two and discuss what your actual objective is?

to return which button was pressed.

PostMessage() is a means to an end -- if you can describe the end, we may be better able to give you an Android-flavored means. Hello Mark, Lots of different uses but if I had to choose one I'd say notifications, especially event notifications with the ability to pass a reference to an object to be used by the receiver of the notification along with the notice (LParam stuffing for the Windows types out there). In Windows the two main paradigms I've seen for doing that are Windows PostMessage() message passing and function callbacks. I lean towards they PostMessage() paradigm because it gets you out of the call chain that a function callback can place you in when your callback is invoked and there can be some fair degree of nuisance that comes with that condition. For example, in many windows callbacks it's a known practice to avoid doing any time consuming work in the callback or you can crash/disrupt the mechanism that is driving the callback, so you delay the processing and move it out of the callback call context by posting a notifcation to some other code you've written with a reference to a data object you created that has all the necessary information to do what you need to do. Or you can post the a notification to another thread and let it handle the time consuming task. But mostly it's straightforward event notifications. I know you know all of this, I'm just using these examples as a way to indicate my area of focus. Another example. One of the areas I know I'm going to have to read deeply about, especially since I intend to be streaming audio from a server to the handset, is how to do asynchrounous socket processing which I assume Android has some standardized notification message mechanism for..

Standard environment variables. I think there are difference on XP/Vista which makes using those hard to use (back in the previous SDK we were using LOCALAPPDATA but we ended up having the same problem). What we use on java is the user.home property setup by the VM. Looks like the Java VM thinks your home is in S:\... I look again into these 2 env variables and see if they could be used. Also, a single line in the installation instructions could have prevented this confusion. When Android can see the AVD from the command line and the Eclipse gui, but not from the emulator, and no explanation is given (especially on the first test project), it's ... disheartening. I agree. We should at least have the emulator output a message saying where it's looking for the AVD and how to fix the problem if it's not where the AVDs are created. In any event, with the ANDROID_SDK_HOME variable set to the S: home (which is not the real home directory, that is on C:), the emulator now works. Well we don't want to go and set a permanent env on your machine. I guess we could but relying on existing standard env variables should be better. I mean, what happens if the user removes it or change the location of his/her home folder but doesn't update this? In any case we do need to find a solution.

This is set in your Manifest file. I assume you probably set this to 1. I would set the Version Code to 2. You can then set the Version Name to 1.1 like you mentioned above. Read the link above it clearly explains this in greater detail.

[android-beginners] How to set a TextView to look like the home screen icon text
Hi all, On the Android Home screen, the label set in the manifest on the application appears under the icon with a gray background. Does anyone know how to style a TextView or some other View Widget to look like the text showing under an application icon? I would like to know.
