Android :: Web View Encoding? Why?

May 28, 2010

I have started to work with the WebView component of Android Platform, but the API to load data to the component is confusing me, because it includes a parameter with a encoding. In both methods: public void loadData (String data, String mimeType, String encoding); public void loadDataWithBaseURL (String baseUrl, String data, String mimeType, String encoding, String historyUrl); you have to specify an encoding. In both cases, the API documentation says that is is the encodign of the data (data parameter). Well, as know, if you provide data as a String object, the String is internally stored in UTF-16 (unicode). To get a String object from a external source, you need to specify the external source encoding to convert it to UTF-16 and get the String internal representation (String(byte[] data, String encoding)). So, at this moment, when you have an String instance, everything from the original source has been converted to UTF-16. So, why do you need to specify an encoding if you are providing the data as a String object?

I don't know the internal implementation of WebKit, but let's suppose that, WebKit has a method, to render a source, providing as content an InputStream and a default encoding. Well, as I know, when you process a HTML page, you use the default encoding to read the HTML characters, and if you find a <meta> tag specifing a different encoding, from that moment, you have to use the new encoding to decode the characters of the HTML page. But what happens if you supply a HTML page that contains this <meta> tag: <meta HTTP-EQUIV="content-type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"/> using one of the methods specified at the top of this post, how are you going to read ISO-8859-1 encoding from a String that it is in UTF-16 encoding? if the WebKit filtering this <meta> tags, and doesn't taking in account the encoding specified in this tag? Well, all of this is very confusing for me, because I don't understand why the API includes this encoding parameter. I also don't know if the <meta> encoding tags are filtered when the source is provided as a String? Can anyone solve my doubts?

Android :: How To Check Encoding In Java

Nov 19, 2010

I am facing a problem about encoding.

For example,
I have a message in xml format encoding is "UTF-8".

CODE:.........

Now, this message are supporting multiple language.
Traditional Chinese (big5), Simple Chinese (gb), English (utf-8)

And it will only change the encoding in specific fields.
For example (Traditional Chinese),

CODE:..........

Only "蘋果" and "橙" are using big5, "<product_name>" and "</product_name>" stills in use utf-8.
<price>1.3</price> and <price>1.2</price> are using utf-8.

How do I know which word is using different encoding?

Android :: Defining Data Encoding Of SMS Messages

Aug 24, 2010

I'm working on an application using the SMS apis for android. The receiving end is an embedded unit that only supports 7-bit encoded SMS and the string I'm sending consists only of symbols from this particular alphabet which makes you think that Android is going to send it encoded as 7 bit. But that is not the case.Therefore I'm searching for a way to specify what encoding to use. See below for what my code looks like today. The method gsm7BitPackedToString turns a byte-array to a 7-bit string, i.e. the string only consists of 7-bit compatible characters and is copied from the internal android api. Code...

Android : Way To Update SDK / Support Encoding Qcelp

Apr 8, 2009

I've added one new feature to Opencore & Framework to let them support encoding qcelp. But I found that Eclipse cannot figure out this new feature, e.g.

recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.RAW_QCELP);recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.QCELP);

Eclipse now does not think RAW_QCELP & QCELP as legal symbols. So, what should I do to update the SDK to pass though this issue? Overwrite its system.img, boot.img or some *.jar packages?

Android :: Chunked Encoding - GZIP Input Stream

Mar 3, 2010

I found a problem with GZIP input stream when wrapping InputStream from HttpURLConnection. When the server response with Transfer- Encoding=chunked, Content-Encoding=gzip and Connection=Keep-Alive. The second post always return -1. After digging into the source code, I found the place that could be a bug: InflaterInputStream.java (line 190 to 192) if (inf.needsInput()) { fill(); } Because InflaterInputStream doesn't need more input, it doesn't try to read the end of chunked encoding (0x)(30 0a 0d) that cause the second post to return with -1 every time.

Android :: Http Proxy And Chunked Encoding With Emulator

Mar 24, 2009

I am having a specific problem that is preventing me using the android SDK from work. We are using a MS Proxy here that all internet traffic has to go through. The problem seems to be when the emulator is trying to access a site that uses 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked' If I attempt to download www.nds.com (no chunked encoding) into the browser, it works fine. However if I try to go to www.google.com (uses chunked encoding), the browser fails with the message: can't determine content length, and client wants to keep connection opened My feeling (and I'm no expert in this area) is that the underlying code managing the communication through the proxy is not dealing with the null terminator on the chunk encoded response when the connection to the proxy is being kept open? Does anyone have any experience in this area? Is the source to the emulator available so I can try and understand what is going on here?

Android :: Convert InputStream To String With Encoding Given In Stream Data?

May 20, 2010

My input is a InputStream which contains an XML document. Encoding used in XML is unknown and it is defined in the first line of XML document.
From this InputStream, I want to have all document in a String.

To do this, I use a BufferedInputStream to mark the beginning of the file and start reading first line. I read this first line to get encoding and then I use an InputStreamReader to generate a String with the correct encoding.

It seems that it is not the best way to achieve this goal because it produces an OutOfMemory error.

Any idea, how to do it ? code...

General :: Mail Characters Encoding?

Jun 3, 2012

I don't know why but some emails I sent aren't showing properly. If I write something like: "hey, what have you planned for tomorrow"?

It's delivered like this:

=?UTF-8?B?5pS25Yiw5LqM5pak5Zub55uS6ZOB6KeC6Z+z?=
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/html; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64[code]...

At first I thought it was because of some ROM so I made a clean install of Gingerbread.This didn't fix it so I updated to ICS. Not even changing my written language from Chinese to English worked.

General :: Samsung Galaxy S - Force SMS Encoding From Unicode To ISO

Aug 16, 2010

I'm from Portugal and here we have some accentuated letters like "à á é ç ã õ".

When the system language is set to English and we insert one of these letters the SMS limit falls down from 160 charachters to 70 because it changes the encoding of the SMS .

What I would like to know is if it's possible to come with an hack to force the system to encode the SMS in a particular way so these kind of letters don't cut us 90 characters off the message.

Actually this is a problem in a lot of countries. Spain, France, Portugal, Italy, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina and the list goes on... Any country that speeks a latin language really.

PS: I own a Samsung Galaxy S at the moment

Motorola Droid X :: Video Recording / Options For Encoding (MPEG4 Or H.263)

Sep 23, 2010

I have two questions regarding video recording on the Droid X.

1. What options are there for encoding? On my HTC Hero I can encode in MPEG4 or H.263. What about the Droid X?

2. My friend sent me a video from her Droid X, but I can't hear anything as far as audio in a normal setting. The only way I can pick up anything she's saying is if I max out the Media volume and hold the speaker directly up to my ear. Is there something she's doing wrong when she's recording the video? This has happened twice now.

Android :: Way To Get Rid Of "warning : Unmappable Character For Encoding Ascii"

I compile launching "ant debug" from command line.

I have found many many instructions around the web about how to remove with annoying warning, but I haven't been able to make any of them work.

I've tried -D option, I've tried randomly tweaking build.* files, I've tried exporting an environment variable... nothing.

I guess some of these methods just don't work, and some others would work but I've been doing them incorrectly. Anything is possible and I can't stand it any more: any advice on how to do it?

Android :: Populate View Flipper Child View With List View?

So far every view I set up worked fine, but now I am trying to create a ListView (including single_choice_mode) within a child view of the ViewFlipper, but my attempt only let to a NullPointerException. As I only discovered ViewFlipper today, I am not yet familiar with it and may not have understood it completely. if someone could give me a hand and help me find out what I have done wrong, that would be great. Here is what I have done:

The code for the onClick event of the ImageButtons:
public void onClick(View v){
if (v == btnExposure){
mFlipper.setDisplayedChild(0); }
else if (v == btnProperties){
mFlipper.setDisplayedChild(1);}
else if (v == btnSpecialEffects){
mFlipper.setDisplayedChild(2);.............

Android :: XML Parsing With Encoding Using Android

May 25, 2010

I am facing some problems on xml parsing with android. The problem is that the xml from the server comes in "ISO-8859-1" set with setEncoding (I get <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>) format and the android device seems that its ignoring that encoding. For example this is part of the original xml that comes from the server:

<Result Filename="Pautas para la Present RUP Iteraciones de Construcci.ppt">
<Path>C:Documents and SettingszashaelMy DocumentsPFCRUPPautas para la Presentaci RUP Iteraciones de Construcci.ppt</Path>
<Hostname>computer_1</Hostname>
<IP>192.168.0.5:27960</IP>
<ModDate>01-ene-1601 2:06:34</ModDate>
<Size>33.280 bytes</Size></Result>

And this is what I get on the phone before parsing the xml:
</Result>
<Result Filename="Pautas para la Presentaci RUP Fase Inicio.ppt">
<Path>C:Documents and SettingszashaelMy DocumentsPFCRUPPautas para la Presentaci RUP Fase Inicio.ppt</Path>
<Hostname>computer_1</Hostname>
<IP>192.168.0.5:27960</IP>
<ModDate>01-ene-1601 1:32:06</ModDate>
<Size>26.624 bytes</Size>
</Result>

As you can see there is a problem with the word "presentaci". This is the part of code where I recieve the file, and then send it to the parser:

do { auxMessage = ois.readObject();
if (auxMessage instanceof ComConstants) {
receivedMessage = (ComConstants) auxMessage;
Log.d("Client", "Client has Search Results");
//Charset charset = Charset.forName("ISO-8859-1");
//CharsetDecoder decoder = charset.newDecoder();
//CharsetEncoder encoder = charset.newEncoder();
String test; test = new String(
receivedMessage.fileContent, 0, receivedMessage.okBytes);
if (finalMessage == null) { finalMessage = test;
} else { finalMessage += test;
}
/*try { // Convert a string to ISO-LATIN-1 bytes in a ByteBuffer
// The new ByteBuffer is ready to be read.
ByteBuffer bbuf = encoder.encode(CharBuffer.wrap(finalMessage));
// Convert ISO-LATIN-1 bytes in a ByteBuffer to a character ByteBuffer and then to a string.
// The new ByteBuffer is ready to be read.
CharBuffer cbuf = decoder.decode(bbuf);
String s = cbuf.toString(); finalMessage = s;
} catch (CharacterCodingException e) { }
}*/ } else { Log.d("Client", "Unexpected message " + auxMessage.getClass().getName());
break; } } while (!receivedMessage.lastMessage);
//test encoding
//String s = finalMessage;
//finalMessage = new String(s.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"));
System.out.println("antes de parsear" + finalMessage);
SaxParser sap = new SaxParser(finalMessage);

And this is my parser code:

while(it.hasNext()) { System.out.println(((SearchResult) it.next()).toString());
//System.out.println(it.next().toString());
} }
public void startElement(String uri, String localName, String qName, Attributes attributes) throws SAXException { tempVal = "";
if(qName.equalsIgnoreCase("Result")) { tempResults = new SearchResult();
tempResults.setName(attributes.getValue("Filename"));
} }
public void characters(char[] ch, int start, int length) throws SAXException {
tempVal = new String(ch,start,length);
} @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public void endElement(String uri, String localName, String qName) throws SAXException {

}else if (qName.equalsIgnoreCase("Size")) { tempResults.setSize((tempVal));
} } }
I dont know what to do. I tried setting the string I create after recieving the xml bytes to ISO encoding, but the only thing I got was a "square" instead of " ".

Android :: Custom View Extending View-Class / Still Based On XML-Layout

Aug 17, 2010

I want to build my own custom view which should look like the Crysis-GUI.At first I designed a XML-based Layout and made it visible via the setContentView(int resid)-Method. Worked pretty well.But now I wan't to go a step further and draw in my Layout. So I created a new Class, let it extend View and overrode the onDraw()-Method. So far so good.But how can I still use my XML-Layout? I can't do setContentView anymore, so how could the same effect be achieved?

Android :: Drag And Drop From Source View To Target View

I have a problem statement, and here it is: My requirement is: There are a number of images shown on the screen. I want to allow the user to drag and drop any of the images to anyother image. Based on which image is dragged and on which is it dropped, I need to do something specific. So, I need to find a way so that I can get my source view and my target view.To understand this in a better way, consider a practical scenario. In the File Explorer of Windows, we can drag and drop items from the left pane showing the directory tree to any of the folders shown in the right pane.If anyone of you ever faced a similar scenario, please let me know because I could not find a direct support to such a thing (Drag and Drop) in the platform, so may be I need to find an innovative solution to it.
