[android-developers] SQLite transactions when using ContentResolver
The goal: refresh database from XML data The process: * Start transaction * Delete all existing rows from the tables * Per each main element of parsed XML insert row into main table and get PK * Per each child of the main element insert record into 2nd table providing FK from the previous step * Commit transaction Pretty standard stuff as far as db operations. The problem is that CRUD operations are not done within ContentProvider but rather using ContentResolver so the insert for example looks like resolver.insert(CONTENT_URI, contentValues). The ContentResolver API doesn't seem to have anything pertained to transaction and I cannot use bulkInsert since I'm inserting in 2 tables intermittently (plus I want to have delete inside the transaction as well). I was thinking of registering my customized ContentProvider as listener by using registerContentObserver but since ContentResolver#acquireProvider methods are hidden how do I obtain the right reference?

[android-developers] ExpandableListView change background for child items
I'm using ExpandableListView in my app and one of the complains is that when expanded it's hard to visually distinguish where the child item ends and next group item begins. So I would like to change background of the child list item to the different shade. Brutal attempts that I've made so far were based on directly changing background color and text of the elements inside the child view item but that leads to loss of hovers and highlights. So my question is - what is a good strategy to achieve the above? I tried styles and selectors but what really bums me out - that if I change one thing then I need to add selectors for all combinations of focus/enabled etc. when all I'm trying to do it to overwrite a single thing. Is there a way to inherit parent style and set just a background for non- focused, enabled child item? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Change backround of the view embedded in the ListView item
I have a ListView backed by customized ArrayAdapter where each item
has 2 LinearLayouts - one I call head, and the other one - body. The
body is hidden (gone) until user clicks on the row at which time it
slides out. The second click (on the head) will hide the body. However
if user clicks on the body it brings another activity. All of this
works just fine, here comes the problem:
When user presses on body I want a visual indication of the action
just the same way as regular list item will flicker an orange
background when pressed. I'm not getting this by default since (my
theory) the onPress event is intercepted by body's view and not
processed by the list item.
The first thing I tried was to execute body.setBackground('#ff00ff')
(never mind the color) in onPress event. That didn't work since (I
suspect) there's no repainting after the call. Then I dig a little bit
more and decided to use selector/-based background. I defined
body_background.xml in drawable folder and assigned that to the body's
background property.
There I noticed that background will only change if the even is
processed by the list. For example if I set item
android:state_selected=true android:drawable=@drawable/selected/
then when I press on the head - the background of both elements (head
and body) will change, however when I press on body - nothing.
So to summarize my question - how do I change background of the child
element in the list item if I assign custom onClick handler to it? Any
hints will be greatly appreciated

[android-developers] Re: Change backround of the view embedded in the ListView item
Are you actually getting control in your onClick()? If yes, then
calling
setBackgroundColor() should work fine.
Yes, I can setup a breakpoint and see how I'm executing this line. I
think the problem may be that in two lines after that I'm doing
startActivity(Intent) so maybe Android thinks - Ah - hell with this,
I'm not going to repaint existing Activity since the new one is coming
up. THe problem is - new Activity takes its sweet time since it's
making a network call, meanwhile user is left without any visual clue
if that click did really occur.
Here's a snippet
body.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(final View v) {
final Object u = v.findViewById(R.id.e).getTag();
if (u != null) {
v.setBackgroundColor(R.color.item_highlight);
final Uri uri = Uri.parse(u.toString());
final Intent i = new Intent(summary, uri,
SearchResultsView.this, SearchSummaryView.class);
startActivity(i);
} else {
Toast.makeText(SearchResultsView.this, Unable
to display details for this listing,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}

Here is an example project that changes the background of View in a row

This differs from your scenario only by the trigger mechanism (onClick()

[android-developers] ListView - duplicate onScroll events
In my app I have a ListView backed by ArrayAdapter. In it I'm
detecting events in OnScrollListener#onScroll method to find end of
the list. I noticed that on the phone (MyTouch) both track-ball and
gesture/touch scrolling will trigger the event twice. On the emulator
I get the same behavior with a scrolling wheel and click-and-drug
scrolling. However in emulator if I use down-arrow button to scroll
the event is fired only once.
Here's the code:
this.view.setOnScrollListener(new OnScrollListener() {
@Override
public void onScroll(final AbsListView view, final int first,
final int visible, final int
total) {
// detect if last item is visible
if (visible total (first + visible == total)) {
Log.d(OnScrollListener - end of list, fvi: +
first + , vic: + visible + , tic: + total);
// this line gets called twice
onLastListItemDisplayed(total, visible);
}
}
}
How do I suppress or handle this behavior? I need just a single event
and trying not to revert to silly hacks such as boolean field.
As far as I can tell - both events have identical stacktrace

me. Basically the assumption here is that as events are issued I
compare last saved first item index with one that is passed in the
`onScroll` call. I will only process event if these do not match:
this.view.setOnScrollListener(new OnScrollListener() {
private int lastSavedFirst = -1;
@Override
public void onScroll(final AbsListView view, final int
first, final int visible, final int total) {
// detect if last item is visible
if (visible total (first + visible == total)) {
// only process first event
if (first != lastSavedFirst) {
lastSavedFirst = first;
Log.d(OnScrollListener - end of list, fvi:
+ first + , vic: + visible + , tic:
+ total);
onLastListItemDisplayed(total, visible);
}
}
}
@Override
public void onScrollStateChanged(final AbsListView view,
final int scrollState) {
// Log.d(OnScrollListener, state: + scrollState);
}
});

In my app I have a ListView backed by ArrayAdapter. In it I'm
detecting events in OnScrollListener#onScroll method to find end of

gesture/touch scrolling will trigger the event twice. On the emulator
I get the same behavior with a scrolling wheel and click-and-drug
scrolling. However in emulator if I use down-arrow button to scroll
the event is fired only once.
Here's the code:
this.view.setOnScrollListener(new OnScrollListener() {
@Override
public void onScroll(final AbsListView view, final int first,
final int visible, final int
total) {
// detect if last item is visible

first + , vic: + visible + , tic: + total);
// this line gets called twice
onLastListItemDisplayed(total, visible);
}
}
}
How do I suppress or handle this behavior? I need just a single event
and trying not to revert to silly hacks such as boolean field.
As far as I can tell - both events have identical stacktrace

[android-developers] Autogrow ListView is not working
I look at some posts from the past and it seems that if I add items to
the ListView adapter it should update itself and user should be able
to scroll to the newly appended items. Unfortunately it's not what I
observe. If I append new items to my existing ArrayAdapter I only will
see updated results if I rerun ListView#setAdapter again. Doing
nothing, invalidating view etc. doesn't do anything. Here's a snippet:
SearchItemsAdapter a = (SearchItemsAdapter) listview.getAdapter();
ListSearchItem values = fetchNextSetOfItems();
a.append(values);
// unless I do this - I will not see the update, but if I do - I'll
jump to the top
listview.setAdapter(a);
Here's append method:
public void append(ListSearchItem values) {
this.items.addAll(values);
}
Anything I'm missing?

[android-developers] UI background task
Here's scenario: 1. Client makes remote call to the service (returns void) and provides a callback object 2. Service executes some long running logic on the background thread and then uses callback object to trigger ether success or failure which (since these manipulate visual elements) execute in Activity#runOnUiThread block The scenario runs fine. The question is - can I use AsyncTask to make code less verbose (how?) and would be there any advantages in doing it that way? Or should I just get away from client callbacks alltogether and execute remote service calls retrofitted to return some value within AsyncTask#doInBackground? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Mangled PreferenceActivity

OnPreferenceChangeListener#onPreferenceChange if I change summary of the preference by doing Preference#setSummary the new value is painted over the old one creating unsightly effect 2. My preferences screen is large enough that user has to scroll. While scrolling, the whole screen get all messed up, again it looks like view is redrawn (when scrolled) without erasing the background first. Preferences are defined in XML file - nothing funky just some categories and preferences nested within PreferenceScreen/ Do I need to explicitly redraw the view?

[android-developers] Restore last viewed Activity
I have 3 different Activities that user navigates between in no particular order. My goal it twofold: 1. When user switches to something else when app is resumed I want to start where user left even if app was terminated. Specifically I want to display last viewed activity, not the default one 2. When last activity is resumed I want to restore it to the last viewed state (this one I think I have a pretty good idea on how to achieve) I think the problem is not start/stop - where I pretty much get what I need, but onCreate() if app was terminated. In that case - it picks Activity that I configured in the manifest. I suppose I can put something in onCreate method of that default activity but is there a better way that I'm maybe missing? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: WebView data caching
This really stinks (not caching data loads). Is it possible to code it
in?
On Sep 2, 4:07 pm, Jason Proctor jason.android.li...@gmail.com
wrote:
the loadData() methods don't enter anything into the history and
rather more awkwardly don't set the current URL. so if you call
loadData() and then getUrl() you'll find that they don't match up.
it's not really clear what WebKit is supposed to do in these
circumstances, but i think as a minimum it might want to insist on a
base URL for string loads (like other versions of embedded WebKit do)
and then put that URL in the current URL and history.
AFAIK the WebKitcacheis persistent across Activity lifecycles. if
you find that a page load is taking a long time however you can do
what i do and put content: URLs to infrequently changed resources
(like external Javascript etc) so they come from the APK instead of
across the network.
there's some extra hassle associated with content: URLs accessed from
WebKit, but eventually it worked for me. search the archives for more
stuff.

[android-developers] Re: Http server at localhost
Oh boy, there's java web server 4 kilos in size http://is.gd/2Rfl2. I wonder though what would be faster - doing WebView#loadUrl from such server or WebView#loadDataWithBaseUrl from value stored in the preferences. In any event - first one will be cached by browser, with history provided which is not a small gain, plus - I can store files for that webserver on the card. I will try this tonight, Thanks Chris!

[android-developers] Service lifecycle and in-memory caching
If I have a service that contains Map with some cached objects that I'm serving on demand to the Activity, then how reliable that cache is and what are the chances that server object (and my cache) may be dropped? The server runs in its own thread (AIDL) and Activity binds/unbinds from it as needed. The server also is running periodical updates thread which refreshes the cache (can vary from every 15 min to once/ 24h). Can I expect this cache to disappear at any moment? Also - the cache (at it's fullest) is about 100K and consists of UTF-8 String data (generally HTML), what would be a good strategy to persist it so it can be repopulated on service's onCreate? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

I also got this reply from megachan on Android Market Forum, I think he has some excellent points: Re: I would be very cautious in dealing with Chinese app distributor.

It is impossible to collect your money, and I dealt with big public company not just your small mom and pop. Don't even think about litigation, it's hopeless. So in China either DIY or have a partner that you can leverage. I finally worked out a 2 way deal in the end where I sell their apps and they sell ours.

Well I have background threads to load HTML content the way you guys describe it - I use HttpClient to grab HTML and then I use Handler to display that with WebView#loadData. But this is a special case - I want to load URL directly into the WebView#loadURL, so how do I do it on a background thread?

The cute way of loading data in the background is to use a service. The simple way is to use a Handler, as Peter suggested. In the handler task, you create a new thread that does the http stuff. If the user needs to wait for the data to display anyway, I think you can prevent the timeout from happening by using a progress bar.

[android-developers] Search in the Market
I don't know if my question belongs to this group but I'll ask it anyway: I noticed that when I search for my app (DroidIn) on the market using keyword linkedin the app is not coming up in the results.I tried different combinations, currently I have 2 apps titled: DroidInLite linkedin + twitter and DroidIn - linkedin twitter. Both will not come up when searching by single word linkedin. If I search for DroidIn (and who will?) or by linkedin twitter then I see both. There are only 3 apps on the market right now that are related to LinkedIn and not having app appearing in the search by the main term is I'm sure costing me some users. I'm reluctant to call the app LinkedIn anything since I'm not affiliated with the company and I also have name for the app I like to keep. Any suggestions? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Full browser vs WebView view
I'm trying various ways of Twitter authorization which requires
roundtrip to the browser. When I load auth URL into standalone browser
everything works well. However if I call same URL but into embedded
WebView (separate Actions, same app) the page loads but it is not
fully functional (I cannot click in the fields, or buttons). I suspect
that it's because JS is ether disabled or broken. Here are steps
1. Execute intent with
startActivity(new Intent(auth, Uri.parse(authUrl), this,
Browser.class));
2. Init browser
private void initBrowser() {
this.browser = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.browser);
this.browser.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
this.browser.getSettings
().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
this.browser.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
this.browser.getSettings().setLoadsImagesAutomatically(true);
this.browser.addJavascriptInterface(this, MainScreen);
}
3. Load url
this.browser.loadUrl(getIntent().getData().toString());
Thanks,
Bo

[android-developers] Re: Full browser vs WebView view
Been there, done that. It's simple. I use OAuth since that gives me
ability to mark each of messages posted with my app as from DroidIn
not with from API. It's my app, I want my glory :) Plus it's much
more user friendly since I don't have to keep or even know user name/
password. I actually have a working implementation (see my write-up on
http://is.gd/1Yhh7)
The trick is - when OAuth is done, browser will execute the callback
which will call my activity through intent-filter (works like a charm
in the standalone browser)
Now - back to my problem. I tried to load auth URL into desktop
browser on which JS is disabled. It works. So my problem is that when
page comes up in WebView view buttons are clickable but form fields
are not. I click on user name and it behaves as disabled field. What
gives?

Bo

1. Execute intent with

On a side note, since Intent actions are device-global in scope, you may
wish to use something a bit more unique than auth. I usually namespace
mine (com.commonsware.android.app.MY_ACTION), just to be safe.
2. Init browser
private void initBrowser() {

}
3. Load url
this.browser.loadUrl(getIntent().getData().toString());
I suspect you don't want to go down this path.
Let's suppose the form worked. The result will be...a new Browser
window. Links and such from within a WebView do not stay in the WebView
by default.
OK, so you add a WebViewClient and implement shouldOverrideUrlLoading().
Then what?
And, of course, your first problem would be to get the form working.
So, I'll go back to the beginning: why not use their API? I've used
JTwitter in a handful of book examples, and it works swimmingly, or at
least as swimmingly as Twitter's API lets you (it seems to be the first
to fail, before any whale sightings).

[android-developers] Re: Full browser vs WebView view
In fact - it works with internal WebView! Here's caveat - on the
emulator I cannot click in the field but I can use arrow keys to gain
the focus. Once I'm able to type the information in - redirect works
just fine. Unfortunately, right now I don't have G1 to check how this
will manifest itself in the real device. Well - I'll check it on
Monday

Mark! You are a genius! It did exactly what I need.
