[android-beginners] Re: 'drawable' vs. 'drawable-hdpi' in Online Tutorial
Oh, well, thanks for your response anyway. But I am going to wait in
the hopes that some who unlike us, it not a newbie, can come up with a
suggestion that is not one of our newbie kludges;)

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Eclipse can't seem to locate R.java
That's not a dependency issue. Creating the R.java file is part of the build process, and if you don't let Eclipse build automatically, you will need to force a project compilation every time you add/remove a resources so that the R class is updated. People who work with the Ant build script already have to do this. Eclipse does improve on this by using the automatic build, but you can do without if you remember to manually recompile when needed.

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Bug in SDK Manager: cannot update
Yes. this is the solution. The problem is that older version of Java lack a XML schema validator. Unfortunately, the SDK tools revert to the wrong code path when this happens and it looks like the schema is more recent that the tools and it requires to update the tools first. Use the MacOS X software update feature to get the newest version of Java. Xav On Tue, Jan 5, 2010 at 5:51 PM, Mugdha Bendre wrote: > Nope, I gave up and switched to a Linux workstation.

[android-beginners] Re: 'drawable' vs. 'drawable-hdpi' in Online Tutorial
And switching back to 1.5 usually works for me. But both your approach
and mind sound like kludges. There should be a better solution. I
really do not want, for example, to have to create this extra
directory for EVERY tutorial I complete using SDK 2.1. Do you?

[android-beginners] list view button error
Hi guys im trying to put a button on each row of a list but i get null
pointer exception, i'll show the java files below. The list view is in
a seperate xml file to the button because button is inside a relative
layout. Can anyone help?.
This class gets data from a database and puts it in array and displays
in a list view which works fine until i try to put a button in each
row.
Java:
package project.Maps;
public class SatMain extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
ArrayList results = new ArrayList();
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
dbAdapter db = new dbAdapter(this);
;
//---get all titles---
db.open();
db.InsertData();
Cursor c = db.getSat1();
if (c.moveToFirst())
{
do {
String pub = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex
(db.KEY_Artist));
String pub1 = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex
(db.KEY_Time));
results.add(pub + pub1 );
} while (c.moveToNext());
}
db.close();
ListView listProducts;
List results = new ArrayList();
Context cont = null;
customArray ca = new customArray(cont, R.layout.button,
results);
listProducts = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.list123);
listProducts.setAdapter(ca);
ca.notifyDataSetChanged();
}}
Code for my custom adapter.
Java:
package project.Maps;
import java.util.List;
public class customArray extends ArrayAdapter {
int resource;
public customArray(Context cont, int _resource, List
results) {
super (cont, _resource, results);
resource = _resource;
}
@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup
parent) {
RelativeLayout rl;
// String prod = getItem(position);
if (convertView == null) {
rl = new RelativeLayout(getContext());
LayoutInflater vi = (LayoutInflater)getContext
().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
vi.inflate(resource, rl, true);
} else {
rl = (RelativeLayout)convertView;
}
return rl;
}
}

[android-beginners] 'drawable' vs. 'drawable-hdpi' in Online Tutorial
It seems the online tutorials have not been rewritten to reflect

[android-beginners] Re: I have note pad where are notepads files saved???
To view files on the emulator you open a new view and under the android folder select file explorer. The files get put, I think, into /data/data/my.project.path/ Files have the permissions of the program that created them, and no other programs can access them unless they are signed by the same developer. Since the project is in java, have you considered doing your parsing in java? Also, you may be able to upload them to your web-server and have them manipulated off of the device.

I am developing a application that speaks out the contents of the users sms messages and I am having problems getting the senders name to show up. It only says the phone number when they receive a text message. So I need to make a content provider and pull the number from the contacts database based on the senders phone number.

[android-beginners] Re: Gradient Image
Is that code that I pasted any good ? Because if I only use the . tags/code it won't recognize it... Also why those folders ? Because they actually are created when creating a 1.6 project... The multiple resolutions were introduced with 1.6, versions prior to that should only have one directory, now they have 3 : drawable-dpi, drawable-ldpi, drawable-mdpi i just tried with bottom|left and this is the result : http://rapidshare.com/files/344319470/device_resized.png.html Is it maybe because I use that full-screen option ?

Thanks, about that gradient tutorial from that blog that one I already knew off :P I have searched a lot on the net before even posting here :D About your solution : If I try that it will actually resize the background to a little version of itself and place it aligned with the bottom of the screen, anwyays it WILL get resized/scaled...

[android-beginners] Re: Gradient Image
Actually I have added : android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"> to my manifest so that there wouldn't be a upper and lower bar... I did set the minimum height and width to 480 and 320 pixels... Setting the android:layout="bottom" on the used RealtiveLayout (with the Image as background) still will result into a hideous version of the original Image... To try the ImageView option of Robert how do I create a ImageView and afterwards paint other stuf on top of that ? I mean I create a RelativeLayout, place an imageView in it, but afterwards I'd like to place another RelativeLayout (with several items) on top of that, how is this done ?
