[android-beginners] Re: How to I use touch screen to draw a straight line

2009-04-13 Thread Raphael

A couple suggestions:

- don't make your x/y fields static.
- in onTouch, test that MotionEvent.getAction() is ACTION_DOWN.
- to draw you should create a custom View class and override the
onDraw method. See ApiDemos or the LunarLander samples for a start.

Actually as indicated in
http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.5_r1/installing.html :
  A Java or RCP version of Eclipse is recommended. 

But you make a good point. When looking at the feature matrix at
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/compare-packages I see that
Classic lacks GEF (needed for the layout editor) and WebTools (for the
XML editor). I'll file a bug to have the install notes to be updated.

 Perhaps Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (85 MB) should be the

 Hi,

 I am working on a implementing IM (yahoo) application in Android. I

 creating a socket, logining into the IM server etc., and I want to use
 this service from a 'Separate' IM application.

 The manifest file of service apk is as follows,

 ==
 ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
 manifest xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
      package=com.sharp_eu.ste.imservice

         android:process=:remote
         android:name=IMServicesManager
         android:enabled=true
         android:exported=true
         android:permission=android.permission.INTERNET

       /intent-filter

    /service

  /application

   uses-permission android:name=android.permission.INTERNET
   /uses-permission

 /manifest
 

 I have installed this APK into the emulator using 'Run-Run
 Configuration...' and selecting 'Do Nothing' option for Launch Option
 in Eclipse. I have checked that this apk is installed in the emulator
 by going to adb shell.

 Now I have created a new separate application which starts the above
 service and bind to that for using it's services. This application
 calls the login method in the service for logging into yahoo IM
 server. But I see 'java.net.UnknownHostException' and login is not
 successful. Why am I getting this error even though I have given
 permission to access internet both in services manifest and
 application manifest files.

 Note: if I make that service as part of my application there is no
 problem and the login process is successful. But I can not have that
 service as part of my application that is my requirement. I have to
 have that service separately existing somewhere in the phone and any
 application in the phone which wants to use it's service can just bind
 to it.

 Any clue why I am getting that error if make service put in different
 apk file.

 Thanks

 The web download idea is also a good one, and I thought I had got it

 tried to run the downloaded app, I got a message:

 Install blocked.  For security, your phone is set to block

 With two buttons: Settings and Cancel - clicking on Settings
 causes an error.

 I did some web searching, but can't immediately see any way round

 One suggestion is that you can place you app on a web server and your

  Hi All,

  [Tried posting this through web interface but didn't show up ... here
  goes via email ...]

  I was wondering if anyone has ever been able to distribute their app in
  a bundle with an emulator?

  The reason I want to do this is that I have some friends who don't have
  android phones, but I'd like them to be able to play with my app so that
  they can give me feedback.  I've previously sent them screen casts, but
  I'd really like them to be able to get interactive with the app.

  Now I could ask them to get all installed with the whole android
  framework, eclipse etc,. but some of them are not so technical.  Ideally
  what I'd like to be able to do is create a package that is the android
  emulator with my app and perhaps 1 or 2 other related apps
  pre-installed, so that they can download it, open it and run it
  interactively on their computers?

  Has anyone ever tried this?

  So far I found that I can run the emulator standalone, and I assume I
  could probably send them just that and it would run.  However the adb
  tool is needed to install apps.  I could send them that too, and ask the
  to run an 'adb install myapp.apk' from the command line, but at the
  moment I can't even seem to do that myself.

  Running the emulator standalone, the adb tool can't seem to see it:

  samuel-josephs-computer-2:tools samueljoseph$ sudo ./adb devices
  List of devices attached

  I just get no list of devices ...

  I have previously used the adb tool to install apk files, but that is
  after I had started the emulator from eclipse - of course even then I
  always have to restart eclipse and the emulator two or three times
  before I can get the connection (I am on OSX 10.5.6., eclipse 3.4.1) ...

  Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

purpose. And if you browse the archives you'll probably find your
answer. http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting/

You mean something like this http://www.google.com/search?q=android+fullscreen ?

There are two ways to do that:

- in code: getWindow().setFlags(...)  (see javadoc)

- in resources, by creating a custom res/values/style.xml with
something like style name=WhiteTheme
parent=@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen / and using it in
your activity as android:theme attribute.

[android-beginners] Update: new ADT Eclipse plugin 0.9.1 available

2009-05-07 Thread Raphael

Hi all,

We just updated the ADT Eclipse plugin to 0.9.1.

The new plugin provides the following changes:
- Added an AVD creation wizard to ADT. It is automatically displayed
during a launch if no compatible AVDs are found.
- Fixed issue with libs/ folder where files with no extension would
prevent the build from finishing.
- Improved error handling during the final steps of the build to mark
the project if an unexpected error prevent the build from finishing.
- Fixed issue when launching ADT on a clean install would trigger
org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: Not implemented [multiple displays].
- Improved error handling when parsing manifest when the uses-sdk
node is present with no (valid) minSdkVersion attribute (error shown
would say null)

To update from Eclipse, simply use Help  Software Update as usual or
visit the download page at
  http://developer.android.com/sdk/adt_download.html

Hope this helps,
Raphael.

Since you are a beginner, a tip to easily view the samples in Eclipse:
- open File  New  Android Project wizard
- select the platform Android 1.5
- select Use existing source then Browse next to it.
- select the sample's directory.
- The wizard fills all the settings for you.

[android-beginners] Re: Eclipse Project Wizard

2009-05-08 Thread Raphael

Doofus, did that solve your issue?

If you have installed ADT via Eclipse and still don't see the Android
Project wizard, try this:

1- File  New  Other. You should see a category Android  Android Project

2- Window  Customize Perspective. In the Shortcut tab, make sure
Android is checked. On some of my eclipse installs, this is not
checked after I install ADT and the wizard don't appear in the File 
New menu. Checking that solves it.

 So I assumed the image would be as wide as the screen. But I guess
 it's limited by the number of pixels in the image.

Do you set the android:scaleType? See ImageView.ScaleType:

 That's fair enough. But I still think it would make sense for an image
 wider than 320px to sit at the bottom of the portrait screen, rather
 than being pushed up!

The apps that come in the Android source code are not built using the

 Hi everyone

 I have a project where I need to modify one of the native apps on

 Next, I've checked out the MMS app from the Android sourcecode
 repository git.  Loading the MMS source code base into eclipse as an
 Android project results in many compilation errors and I'm having
 trouble moving on from here.

 It appears that a lot of the import statements in the MMS Classes are
 referencing files that don't exist.  for example there is no
 android.provider.Calendar class in the SDK, but the MMS sourcecode
 seems to think there is.

 I was under the impression that Android native apps were no different
 than any other developer apps, so shouldn't their sourcecode compile
 like any other?  I thought it may also be an SDK version thing, but it
 doesn't seem to compile under v1.1 or 1.5 of the SDK.

 Any help would be much appreciated.  thanks.

 Hi guys,

 I'm new to Android and i don't understand very well how dex files
 work.
 When I create an application, I do in in java (isn't it?).
 Then, with the eclipse adt, this file is converted in a dex file and
 the DVM can receive it.

In a nutshell:
-  Eclipse compiles your .java into .class
- dx converts the various .class into bin/classes.dex.
- aapt compiles your resources in a compact binary form.
- the manifest, the compiled resources and the classes.dex get
combined in your apk file, which is just a zile file.

Unzip the apk to have a look at it.

You can find many tutorials out there and youtube videos on android
that explain that.

 Thanks Raphael. I was running Classic. I installed the Java version
 and that fixed it.

 Maybe that needs to be made clearer in the documentation ? :)

It is in the system requirements:

http://d.android.com/sdk/1.5_r1/requirements.html


 Out of curiosity, is it possible at all to get it to work in Classic ?
 Are there perhaps additional packages that can be installed to allow
 the Android stuff to work properly ?

I tried a while ago and failed. With P2 (the new installer in Eclipse
3.4) I didn't manage to get it to install the missing plugins. The old
one at least complained some stuff was missing, the new one seems to
just let you install something that doesn't work.

According to the feature matrix at
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/compare-packages, Classic
lacks GEF (for the layout editor) and XML Tools (for the XML editor).
Yet Classic manages to be twice bigger than the Java version that
has more plugin, so really what's the point? Sure it has sources
bundled but quite frankly who ues them and it's easier to get plugins
sources from CVS anyway.

[android-beginners] Re: Help with layout views and Canvas'

2009-05-16 Thread Raphael

If you want a linear set of buttons use a LinearLayout.
If you want a grid, simply put a TableLayout in your XML with several
TableRow inside.
You can use ImageButton to have a button with an image in the middle
(use the src attribute).

All the widgets derive from View, which has a background attribute
so you can change the background to an image or a gradient on any of
your widgets.

 Hi,

 I'm pretty new to the whole app developing scene and i've never coded
 in Java before, however it doesn't seem that different to c# so I
 figured i'd give it a go.

 I've been making reasonable process on the app I'm working on, I've
 figured out using the main.xml to create a relative layout for my UI.
 In the UI I've managed to create an imageview that i've been able to
 update to scroll through a bunch of images by pressing a button.
 Pretty simple stuff so far.

 Now, here comes my problem.

 I want to create an area seperate of this imageview that will also
 display a background image, and then, multiple images atop that
 background image at specific locations. I will eventually want these
 images to be clickable.

 From reading many an article it seems that the way to display an image
 at a specific location and do all sorts of fancy stuff with it is by
 using a canvas. but this doesnt appear to be a valid viewtype in the
 layout xml. I found a basic tutorial that created a drawview class,
 which I managed to work in, but it only allows me to have either that
 layout, or the one in my xml file. I've tried inserting this class
 into my main.xml by following this tut
 http://www.anddev.org/creating_custom_views_-_the_togglebutton-t310.html
 but it doesnt seem to work.

 I think i'm probably overcomplicating the issue, but if anyone could
 point me at some resources that could show me how to acheive this, or
 could offer any help on it, I would be most appreciative.

 In Summary :-
 I have a ui layout that I want to use.
 I want to add in a canvas area in this layout (can't figure out how)
 with the canvas I want to be able to place multiple images at specific
 locations
 I want these images to be clickable.

There's also an option in the little menu at the top of the tree to hide

However when you do that you can't anymore right click on an empty

The first thing you should try is to change the preference Android

[android-beginners] Re: HTC Magic - Can't install driver on development PCs

2009-05-18 Thread Raphael

Hi there,

We're trying to reproduce the issue. I have a few questions:
- Which version of Windows are you using? XP, Vista, W7, 32 or 64bit.
- Did you *ever* install an android USB driver before? SDK 1.0/1.1 had
one and it has been updated in 1.5.
- When you plug the device and go to the Device Manager, is it listed
as unknown or as an adb device?
- Did Windows ever prompt you about installing a driver for an unknown device?

Sorry if some of the questions are generic, I'm trying to get broad
enough before drilling in specifics.

 The fact that it doesn't work on my main machine or my laptop, and
 I've seen several other reports of this makes me believe this isn't
 simply a problem on my development machine but some more fundemental
 problem.

 I'm willing to wipe and reinstall vista on my development machine if
 there is no other way to make this work but I'm reluctant to do so if
 it's likely the problem will reoccur.

 I'm wondering if it's because I used the phone first on that machine
 without usb debugging set and that if the first time it was connected
 it had it set it would have worked?

If you are under Windows there should be SDK/tools/android.bat and
android.sh for linux/mac. If SDK/tools is not on your path, add it.

The only android.jar you can find is
SDK/platforms/android-1.[15]/android.jar which is the API for
ant/eclipse. It has nothing to do with the android command-line
tool.

[android-beginners] Re: HTC Magic - Can't install driver on development PCs

2009-05-18 Thread Raphael

One more question: when you fail to get ADB discovered by Windows, do
you see a Other Device  Unknown Device entry in the Device Manager?

I got into this situation under Vista:
- removed old ADB driver, rebooted
- upon reboot Windows told me a new device had been found and prompted
me for a driver. I asked to select the location and selected
SDK/usb_driver
- windows tried to install a driver to finally give up by saying it
was not compatible with my platform.
- once it did that, it won't prompt me again

However I can:
- select the Other Device  Unknow Device in Device Manager
- right click and get properties
- it's hardware id (3rd tab) is USB\VID_0BB4PID_0C02MI_01 (0BB4 and
0C02 denote an HTC/Magic iirc)
- in the general tab of the properties  Reinstall driver
- correctly select the sdk\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r1\usb_driver\x86
location this time

nikradf...@googlemail.com wrote:
 Will do in the morning

Forget the linux question. It became totally irrelevant. We found the
issue: it happens when the device is plugged in Windows with USB
Debugging turned off first.

The current fix is:

a) Make sure to enable USB Debugging before plugging the device
under Windows the *very* first time. Of course in your case that's too
late.

b) Use regedit to find the string vid_0bb4pid_0c02 in keys or
values. If you find in a value, delete the whole registry folder.
Repeat till you find none. Then do step (a).

Usual disclaimer: if you don't know what regedit is nor how to use it
or fear you will screw up your config, please don't do it :-)

The issue is that Windows recorded an invalid driver entry associated
to your device (G1 or Magic) when it has been first connected without
the USB Debugging flag. You want to trash those entries so that
Windows can prompt you.

Please let me know if that works for you.

[android-beginners] How to solve G1/HTC Magic not recognized by ADB under Windows

2009-05-19 Thread Raphael

If you don't use Windows or adb has no problem with your device,
please skip this.
If your G1 or HTC Magic is not properly recognized by ADB under
Windows, please read this.


The bottom line: Please make sure to enable Home  Settings 
Applications  Development  USB debugging on your G1 or HTC Magic
*before* you plug it in Windows the very first time.

If you read this after the fact, googling why adb doesn't recognize
my device under Windows, here are the steps to fix it:

This concerns both the G1 and HTC Magic and all flavors of Windows.

1- Remove existing drivers:
1a- Plug your phone
1b- Open the Device Manager
1c- Remove any driver for [ADB Interface  HTC Composite ADB
Interface] and [Disk Drives  HTC Android Phone USB Device] if you see
them
1d- Unplug phone

2- Edit the registry
2a- Disclaimer: be careful what you do in regedit. If you're not sure,
don't use it :-)
2b- Open the Registry Editor (Start  search/run  regedit)
2c- You *may* need to be administrator to do that
2d- Search for vid_0bb4pid_0c02 in keys or values. It makes take a
while. If you find in a value, delete the whole key folder.
2e- Some keys might be locked: right-click them and add everyone:
full control to the permissions. Then delete the key folder.
2f- Repeat the search till no more instances are found.
2g- Close regedit.

3- Before your plug in your phone:
3a- Make sure to enable Home  Settings  Applications  Development 
USB debugging on your G1 or HTC Magic
3b- Plug the phone in. Windows should now ask you for a driver
3c- Do NOT selected to search the Windows Update. Instead select I
will choose a driver or the equivalent.
3d- Make sure to give the *full* path to the x86 or x86_64 driver, e.g:
 SDK/usb_driver/x86/
or  SDK/usb_driver/x86_64/
If you just select SDK/usb_driver, Windows might take the wrong
architecture and complain the driver can't be installed.


Thanks for those who reported the issue and helped me solve it.

 Hi,

 The file is res/drawable/androidmarker.png (taken from a tutorial).
 I'm not referring to it at all; I'm merely placing it in the drawable
 directory.  Removing it removes the error.

 Thanks,

[android-beginners] Re: storing values of an array

2009-05-21 Thread Raphael

Simply serialize your ints to a string and write in a simple sqlite
database. It's rather inexpensive and compact. You don't need a
provider or things like that, just use the database helper (there's
one in some sample) to create the db and a couple of query/select
commands to store and restore.

Alternatively you can do even simpler by storing the string as an app
preference:

prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(context);
prefs.edit().putString(name, value).commit();
prefs.getString(name);

What driver do you want to install?

1- For transfering files from the SD Card, you do not need any driver.

2- For using ADB to debug, you need the driver that comes with the

[android-beginners] Re: Best way to add 100.000 words to database

2009-06-01 Thread Raphael

This begs to a different kind of question: do you really need to store
this data in an sqlite3 database?

There are other alternatives, it all depends on your data and how you
want to use it so you might want to help us here.

Example: you mention words, just not any string, so your data might
be a dictionary.
Then in this case you could simply use a binary file, in your own
format, packaged in your project/res/raw directory, which you can
retrieve with 
http://d.android.com/reference/android/content/res/Resources.html#openRawResource(int)
-- the file is added uncompressed to your APK but the APK itself is a
zip file, which is why you get an input stream. That also means if you
need direct random access you'll probably want to write it somewhere,
such as on the sdcard.
Make sure to write an index for fast lookup, for example the offset of
words starting by A, by B, etc. You will probably need to experiment a
bit to get a tradeof between simplicity of the index and lookup time,
e.g. a tree will have faster lookup times but is more tricky to get
right, etc.

 You're right -- I skimmed it too quickly.

 It's actually a bit more complicated than that. The flow is:

 begin-transaction
 insert 100 rows worth of stuff
 set-transaction-successful

 and do that whole block 1000 times for 100,000 words.

 So you're probably going to wind up with something like:

 while ((line=input.readLine())!=null) {
     DB.beginTransaction();
     DB.execSQL(...);

     for (int i=0;i99  (line=input.readLine())!=null; i++) {
         DB.execSQL(...);
     }

     DB.setTransactionSuccessful();

 }

 plus an appropriate try/catch in there.

 However, bear in mind that this will still take a very long time, so
 unless you're trying this for educational purposes, I'd move along to
 one of the other options.

 Thank you for this most useful post.  While in regedit I can't seem to
 add everyone full control in permissions. It tells me its unable to

 me in this area and let me know what I might do that I'm missing.

 If you don't use Windows or adb has no problem with your device,
 please skip this.
 If your G1 or HTC Magic is not properly recognized by ADB under
 Windows, please read this.

 The bottom line: Please make sure to enable Home  Settings 
 Applications  Development  USB debugging on your G1 or HTC Magic
 *before* you plug it in Windows the very first time.

 If you read this after the fact, googling why adb doesn't recognize
 my device under Windows, here are the steps to fix it:

 This concerns both the G1 and HTC Magic and all flavors of Windows.

 1- Remove existing drivers:
 1a- Plug your phone
 1b- Open the Device Manager
 1c- Remove any driver for [ADB Interface  HTC Composite ADB
 Interface] and [Disk Drives  HTC Android Phone USB Device] if you see
 them
 1d- Unplug phone

 2- Edit the registry
 2a- Disclaimer: be careful what you do in regedit. If you're not sure,
 don't use it :-)
 2b- Open the Registry Editor (Start  search/run  regedit)
 2c- You *may* need to be administrator to do that
 2d- Search for vid_0bb4pid_0c02 in keys or values. It makes take a
 while. If you find in a value, delete the whole key folder.
 2e- Some keys might be locked: right-click them and add everyone:
 full control to the permissions. Then delete the key folder.
 2f- Repeat the search till no more instances are found.
 2g- Close regedit.

 3- Before your plug in your phone:
 3a- Make sure to enable Home  Settings  Applications  Development 
 USB debugging on your G1 or HTC Magic
 3b- Plug the phone in. Windows should now ask you for a driver
 3c- Do NOT selected to search the Windows Update. Instead select I
 will choose a driver or the equivalent.
 3d- Make sure to give the *full* path to the x86 or x86_64 driver, e.g:
      SDK/usb_driver/x86/
 or  SDK/usb_driver/x86_64/
 If you just select SDK/usb_driver, Windows might take the wrong
 architecture and complain the driver can't be installed.

 Thanks for those who reported the issue and helped me solve it.

 1 - When creating a project it appears an error like

    dalvik machine error 1

Did you get past this point? If your app does not compile, it won't install.


 2 - When I run the application, the android phone appears, but there
 is no hello world app... there is simply this android phone with all

Do you see any error in the logcat view of the DDMS perspective?

 I would suggest you just create new Eclipse Projects for each of the

 Here are the steps to do it.

 Eclipse-File-New Android Project. Within the Contents section,
 Select Create project from existing source and set the Location to
 the root of  your app directory. e.g. your_path_to_apps_for_android/
 projectname

This is the way to do it. To be exact, select the directory that
contains the AndroidManifest.xml file. You need to do that for each
project.


 I also noticed that some of these have R.java in their source tree.
 You may have to delete that file and just use the one that gets auto-
 generated under the gen folder in your eclipse project.

Yes. ADT does not clean an existing R.java unless it generated itself,
so you have to do it manually.

You need to update to the latest ADT (0.9.2) to use Android 1.5.
Follow the instructions here:

Looks like the ADT plugin is not correctly installed on your Eclipse install.
Make sure you are using a compatible version of Eclipse (3.3 or 3.4,
Java or RCP flavors, *not* Classic) and try to remove and reinstall
the latest ADT 0.9.2

 If you have installed ADT via Eclipse and still don't see the Android

 1- File  New  Other. You should see a category Android  Android Project

 2- Window  Customize Perspective. In the Shortcut tab, make sure
 Android is checked. On some of my eclipse installs, this is not

First check that you're not using the Navigator view instead (which

In the package explorer, click on the View Menu (a little triangle

2009-09-15 Thread Raphael

Can you do a ls -l /home/haze/android/platforms/android-1.1/tools/
to see the file attributes?

The old SDK used a zip for linux, and some unzip binaires sometimes
did not preserve file attributes. If ls -l doesn't show the files as
+x, you can try:

chmod -v +x /home/haze/android/platforms/android-1.1/tools/*

Let us know if that helps.

[android-beginners] Re: help

2009-09-16 Thread Raphael

You're mixing a few things:
- the id of a view (i.e. R.id.calculate_id) is just that: an
identifier that lets you *find* the object in question.
- you can't assign to that id, it's just a constant integer

Instead you should do:
- find the view based on the id:
EditText myEditField = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.calculate_id);

- use some of the EditText methods to change the text:
   http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/EditText.html
e.g:
  myEditField.setText(42);

I *strongly* suggest you get an introductory book on Android or look
at some of the samples under SDK/platform-1.6/samples/

What Balwinder meant is that you want to start using the SDK 1.6 to
make sure your apps are compatible with Android 1.6. You should keep
your minSdkVersion to whatever is the minimum API supported by your

the emulator using Android 1.6 .

However, yes, if you try to publish an app using minSdkVersion=4 today

You can't. The navigator displays files from your disk. It doesn't

 Under the package explorer, View Menu/Package Presentation, I changed
 the selection from flat to hierarchical and the reverse. It did not

Not yet. You can get around by extracting as much application logic as

If you're using Linux or a source control system like SVN you can

[android-beginners] Re: Icon and text on button

2009-10-04 Thread Raphael

Try using this one:

http://d.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView.html#setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(android.graphics.drawable.Drawable,%20android.graphics.drawable.Drawable,%20android.graphics.drawable.Drawable,%20android.graphics.drawable.Drawable)

or directly in xml:

 Button android:text=@+id/Button01
android:id=@+id/Button01
android:drawableLeft=@drawable/icon
android:layout_width=wrap_content
android:layout_height=wrap_content
/Button

I want to use this code(the face detect part) in the emulator

hundreds of errors. However, the code clearly works for the designers,
so I'm confused what I'm doing wrong. Any idea what I'm doing wrong

[android-beginners] Re: SDK Setup on Windows

2009-10-28 Thread Raphael

All SDK Setup does is execute tools\android.bat for you.
Please help me understand what's going on by doing the following:
- open a command prompt
- cd to the android-sdk-windows folder
- execute tools\android.bat from here
- give me the output please :-)

Also, an important question: Do you have Java installed on your machine?

 I'm refreshing my android SDKs as I had some very old versions on my

 I grabbed the latest package for the windows tools - specifically:

 http://developer.android.com/sdk/download.html?v=android-sdk_r3-windows.zip

 I unpack it and put the tools directory in my path. When I try to run
 SDK Setup.exe, it does nothing. No output, nothing.

 Anyone else had this problem? How should I start diagnosing the issue?

[android-beginners] Re: Android RSS Reader, Please Help

2009-10-28 Thread Raphael

I don't think posting up up every 2 hours is going to help any...

M3 is a seriously obsolete release, which dates before Android had any
kind of stable API in place. If you really want help porting your
code, you might as well start by listing the compilation errors you
get. I also noticed you mentioned you were using the 1.5 SDK -- you
might want to switch to the latest 2.0 SDK.

Out of curiosity, why do you want to copy your assets on the sdcard
anyway? They are already nicely zipped in your APK.

[android-beginners] Re: Issue with Android Debug Bridge

2009-10-28 Thread Raphael

So you're trying to see an emulator, right, not a physical device?

Can you tell us a bit more:
- the version of adb: adb version
- the version of your emulator: emulator -version (give the full
first line, including build_id)
- is the emulator fully booted when you try to see it in adb? does it
have network?
- what AVD platform are you trying to run in your emulator?

[android-beginners] Re: taking a screenshot...of whatever is drawn on the view

2009-10-28 Thread Raphael

I don't know about the DrawingCache. However if all you want is to
draw your view to a bitmap, that's pretty easy: create a new bitmap,
wrap it in a new Canvas(theBitmap) and call your view.onDraw with this
canvas.

Thanks. It looks like you don't have a platforms folder in your SDK
folder. The SDK requires 3 folders there: tools, add-ons and
platforms.

Do you have them there? If you create them, does that make the SDK
Setup.exe work?
