In Jeff's example, the service is started from his onUpdate method, which is called by AppWidgetProvider. This is different from what I'd like to do, I'd like to push an update to the widget from inside my activity, but with the correct int[] values. On Apr 22, 7:16 pm, Tom Gibara

2009-04-22 Thread Tom Gibara
That's true, but notice that his service has no dependency on the class implementing the onUpdate method, in principal anything in the application could invoke that service. You'll find the app widget ids available via the getAppWidgetIds() on AppWidgetManager. Tom. 2009/4/22 Al

[android-developers] How does requery know what the original where clause is that returned the cursor?

I know that in a content provider query method one can indicate to the cursor a notify uri. The cursor knows what this uri is. Does the cursor uses this uri to update itself? Does it result in a call to query method of the contentprovider for a query. How does the cursor know what the additional

[android-developers] Re: How does requery know what the original where clause is that returned the cursor?

Looks like it is the responsibility of the cursor to do this and remember the where clauses. So it won't go back to the content provider for retrieving data. That makes me wonder what happens to such things as MatrixCursor that doesn't seem to have a specific requery semantics. On Wed, Apr 22,

I hope you aren't writing constants into real code like that. :} For changing the extras -- you need to use cancel, and this will result in a new PendingIntent that you need to send to the notification manager. As of cupcake you can alternatively use the new FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT. On Thu, Mar 26,

There is probably a bug in the system. You really shouldn't be using SurfaceView like this -- it is basically an overlay positioned in your window, and so has significant limitation in how it can be composited with the window and has a lot of overhead for using it to just implement a widget. On

Sorry, I misunderstood. You could try stroking the path but set a BitmapShader first (using a copy of the bitmap) combined with your ColorMatrixColorFilter(). You might have problems with alignment though. One heavyweight solution (I can't think of any lightweight ones to be honest) would be to

That is not what those APIs are for, they are for temporarily hiding the key lock so that things like the in-call screen can be shown. Replacing the lock screen as a third party app is just not supported right now, sorry; you'll need to modify the platform to do a decent implementation, I think.

Setting the data uniquely in this way is a bit ugly - and what if you post two intents within the granularity of the clock? I use unique request codes. I can't claim that this is the intended use for them (the documentation is a bit sparse) but it seems to work well. Tom. 2009/4/22 Rob Franz
