Re: [android-beginners] Re: Facing serious problem with static objects
Hi Alok,
if your both activities are from part of a single application
then why don't you simply create a common non-activity class with members as
static and access them from wherever you want.

His code as given would crash if initialized to null on activity
change. I think what you mean is to reinitialize the containers which
is what I would suggest trying. Something like this:
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
public static HashMapString, String hMap;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
hMap = new HashMapString, String(); // Recreate container
each time.
...
}
Alternatively he can just call hMap.clear() in onCreate() which will
have much of the same effect. Which approach is better depends on
exactly what he's trying to do.
Another thing to consider is whether these members really want to be
static in the first place.

Hi,
Try initiallizing them to null before the change of activity takes place
or
at the start of home activity. Since your application is not closed(scope
of
the static objects), the static objects are there in memory allocated to
that process and hence retain the value that you give.

Hi guys, I am facing a problem in my application.
I have a few static arrays and Hashmaps in my app which i fill in when
my
Activity starts.Then this activity later launches another Activity.
Now
user presses Home button of Back button and again restarts the app,
even
then the static objects remain in memory. I beleive this is default
android
behaviour.
I have an example app.
package com.cm.test;
import java.util.HashMap;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
public static HashMapString, String hMap = new HashMapString,
String();
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Log.i(***,Hash map size = +hMap.size());
hMap.put(Alok,Alo);
hMap.put(Jitu,Jit);
Log.i(***,Activity onCreate() called);
}
@Override
public void onDestroy()
{
Log.i(***,Activity onDestroy() called);
super.onDestroy();
}
@Override
public void onResume()
{
super.onResume();
Log.i(***,Activity onResume() called);
}
@Override
public void onStop()
{
super.onStop();
Log.i(***,Activity onStop() called);
}
}
Output First time is Size = 0. for 1st launch, Next for every launch ,
HashMap size is 2... If i use ArrayList , the size of ArrayList goes on
increasing.
I dont want this to happen.One thing was that to clear the HashMap in
onDestroy() or in onStop() in case user presses Home button. But my
Activity
launches another ListActivity in it. So the alternae option is to clear
the
Hashmaps in onDestroy() | onStop() of this activity.
I am not much clear when the Activity exits. From the posts that i have
read i found few things here
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa.
..
The manifest part android:clearTaskOnLaunch=true does not work in my
case.
What do you people suggest in this case?
Thanks,
Alok.

[android-beginners] Observing User inactivity time and broadcasting intent after timeout
Hi, As in android, after inactvity of screen off timeout, android screen goes off. So here android itself uses some activity observer, to know whether user is currently active or not. I need not every keystroke or touch event with details, just knowing that user is active and getting a broadcastreceiver after some timeout value. Does anybody know something related to activity observing ? I got the code from in frameworks where it broadcast, but I am still figuring out code in android that monitors user activity. Need not be an app restricted, I am open to modify code frameworks too.

[android-beginners] Receiving inactivity notifications in service from android
Hi, I want to launch an activity only when there is no activity on android till a particular a period of time. I know the timer value, and I want notification after inactivity timeout of timer value. Just like what windows provides, you set some timer value and system will be locked after that particular inactivity timeout. Currently I am using ACTION_SCREEN_OFF intent, but this notification timer value i.e. inactivity timer value is screen timeout of android's default setting. Does anybody has any idea about providing our own timer value for ACTION_SCREEN_OFF ? Or different way of getting inactivity notifications ?
