Android :: Unable To Manage To Put A String With Double Quotes In A Resources File

Oct 31, 2009

I'm probably missing something obvious, but for some reason I don't manage to put a string with double quotes in a resources file.

strings.xml: <resources> <string name="message_empty_folder">Folder "%s" is empty.</string> </resources>

LIstFolderActivity.java: String format = getResources().getString (R.string.message_empty_folder); System.out.println(format);

Log output: Folder %s is empty.

What's eating up the double quotes?

Android :: Use Flat File Or Database For Storing Quotes In Application?

Oct 14, 2009

I am developing an app on Android that will randomly pick and display an inspirational quotation (or verse) from a large collection of quotations. On Android I can choose between a flat file and an SQLite database. The app should satisfy the following conditions:
Be scalable to 10^6 quotations and/or verses
Be very fast (i.e. retrieve and display a quotation, immediately at the touch of a button)
Be able to load new quotations from an external source (in a format I have not yet decided)
What data format must I use?

Android :: String Resources Do Not Update When Orientation Changes / What To Fix It?

Apr 29, 2010

I have used the method specified on the Resource and I18N page (http:// developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/resources-i18n.html) to specify separate strings.xml resource files for when the orientation is landscape vs. portrait. When the activity starts, it will display the strings correctly based on the orientation at that time. But if the orientation changes, the strings do not change to start using the new resource file. Instead, they continue to use the resource file that was valid when the activity started.

Is there some function I can call to reload the string resources based on the current configuration, or am I going about this entirely the wrong way?

Android :: Extracting String Resources To A Jar - Referencing Error

Jan 27, 2009

I'm just about to start externalizing all my String-resources to a new project and then bring them back by including the exported jar-file of this 'i18n'-project. Doing so i18n for different languages becomes easier (I could simply export just a handful of languages to the jar). can successfully change the java-references to the outsourced foo.bar.i18n.R.java BUT, all references of the xml-layouts fail Sample: ############ android:label="@string/app_name"> ############ where: "@string/app_name" is now unknown =/ I'm asking myself whether this is possible and how to resolve my issue / properly reference the externalized string-resources.

Android :: Convert A Double To A SQL- Friendly String ?

Mar 11, 2010

My open-source Android application uses this in an SQL query:

Unfortunately, in some languages the coma is "," instead of "." and the SQL engine does not like it.

What is the best way to convert a double to a SQL-friendly string on Android?

Android :: How To Force Eclipse To Recreate Resources File?

Sep 7, 2010

I just had the odd case that my Android project for some reason would not properly rebuild in Eclipse (v3.5/Galileo). Occasionally that happen and so I did the usual Project => Clean... as I always do in such cases. But this time I now have the odd effect that almost all files show bugs, and looking closer it's that the compiler can't find the R-file (which is indeed missing from the gen subtree). How do I force eclipse to rebuild that file?

Android :: Array Imported From A File / Converted From String

Nov 10, 2010

I have a text file that I am pulling from my SD card which contains an array in plain text format. Here are the contents of that file ...
http://www.oddree.com/rayhaque/android1.jpg,http://www.oddree.com/rayhaque/android2.jpg,http://www.oddree.com/rayhaque/android3.jpg,http://www.oddree.com/rayhaque/android4.jpg,http://www.oddree.com/rayhaque/android5.jpg
I am trying to import that text file into a String, convert that String to an array, and then load that array into a list adapter. If I try to split up readString or a trimmed result of readString, I get a forced close every time. If I copy the contents of the file into a String and then use that ... everything works as expected. So what is the difference between loading this stuff from a text file, and loading it from an included string? Is it a byte conversion issue? Code...

Android :: Loading String Values From File Instead Of List In Class

Nov 1, 2010

I think I have a pretty easy problem to solve, but I have been beating my head against the wall for hours trying to get past it! I have an adapter that loads a list of URLS:
adapter=new MyAdapter(this, lStrings);
list.setAdapter(adapter);

The list of URLS looks like this:
private String[] lStrings={
"http://www.domain.com/file1.jpg",
"http://www.domain.com/file2.jpg",
"http://www.domain.com/file3.jpg",
};

What I want instead is to load these values from a text file that lies on the SD card. For that matter, I would be okay with loading the values from a text file into a String, and then load the String into the list as I imagine that would be the "cleaner approach". However, all attempts to do this have failed. For instance, I replaced the above snippet with this:

private String[] lStrings=
{ MainActivity.this.getString(R.string.myurllist) };
but then I get a Forced Close on loading.

I'm a bit new to Java, Android, and development in general.

Android :: SQLite - Inserting String With New Lines Into Database From Csv File

Sep 9, 2010

I am trying to inject a long text entry into a SQLite database, in a TEXT field. This text has new lines in it (i.e. it spans multiple paragraphs). I can get the new lines to show up if I do the INSERT manually:

INSERT INTO "LOGENTRY" VALUES(5,40,'PLACE','line1
line2
line4
',1283990533315,'4A','TEXT','',NULL);

but if I have the equivalent text in a CSV file and attempt to .import it into the table, I get an error that it's expecting more columns than exist (as soon as the new line is encountered, the program assumes it's the end of the input and thus it's missing columns). Is this possible? Or is the only way to manually do each INSERT?

Android :: Android - Retrieving All Drawable Resources From Resources Object

Jul 11, 2010

In my Android project, I want to loop through the entire collection of Drawable resources. Normally, you can only retrieve a specific resource via its ID using something like:

InputStream is = Resources.getSystem().openRawResource(resourceId)

However, I want to get all Drawable resources where I won't know their ID's beforehand. Is there a collection I can loop through or perhaps a way to get the list of resource ID's given the resources in my project?

Or, is there a way for me in Java to extract all property values from the R.drawable static class?

Android :: Java Datetime Values From String To Long To String

Oct 1, 2010

In Android, capturing date from datepicker and storing as string in sqlite. Sorting by date doesn't work because they're strings (unless I'm doing it wrong.I've googled this issue for ~5 days, and it looks like there should be a way to capture the date from the date picker, convert it to a Long, store it in sqlite as a Long, select and sort on the Long date value, then convert the Long back to a "mm/dd/yyyy" string for display. I've tried various combinations of parse statements, Date, FormatDate, etc. with no luck at all.On activity start, get today's date and display it in button which calls the datepicker.Capture new date from datepicker (if one is entered), save it as a long to sqlite.On opening an activity showing a listview of records, select from sqlite with orderby on date (Long), convert Long to "mm/dd/yyyy" string for display in ListView.

Android :: Reference String In String Array Resource With Xml

I have preferences.xml which has the layout for my preferences file, and I would like to reference a single item from the string array to use as the title.

In the Android developer reference, I see how I can reference a single string with XML, but now how I can reference a string from an array resource in XML.
