I've a succession of 2 Intent: Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setClass(EntryPoint.this, MainClass.class); startActivity(intent);
And I'd like an animation (which is present in res/anim) occurs during the transition between these 2 Intents...

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an IntentService that broadcasts an Intent each time if finishes some work. Each broadcast Intent is identical except that it contains a Bundle with some result information from the IntentService. Evidently, having different data in the Bundle is not enough for Android to think it's a different Intent. If the IntentService broadcasts two of these Intents back-to-back, the second one is dropped as a duplicate.
I know I've read about this behavior in this forum in the past but I can't find in the documentation where this duplicate elimination logic is described in detail. Mostly, I just want to differentiate the Intents enough that they are not considered duplicates. Any pointers would be appreciated.
I am trying to create a menu that slides in when it is drawn. I created an animation in res/anim called map_toolbar_in.xml:

I defined some complex AnimationSet in xml and would like to run it on several Views (View.startAnimation()). i cannot just create one instance of this AnimationSet (using AnimationUtils.loadAnimation()) and use it as parameter of View.startAnimation(), so i have to create several instances of this AnimationSet. since loading it from xml is rather slow operation, is there a way to load it once and then clone it when needed?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a auto-complete textbox in which the user makes a selection. From here I want to load a tabbed layout which is based on the user selection. The problem is I cant figure out a clean way to pass that selection to each of the tabs. At the moment I can pass an intent to the 'tabhost' activity and then pass to each child activity explicitly, however this just seems like messy iterative code to me! So basically how can I pass my intent data bundles to the tabs activities cleanly & efficiently! Psuedo code is also very welcome.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create intents that will be set using alarmmanager. Currently, I can do this with one intent, add extra data to it (strings, but i send them as one string with a seperator), and everything works fine and goes off at the correct time. However, when I try to send multiple intents like this, they are overwritten and only one goes off at the correct time. How can i structure my intents so that they appear different to the alarmmanager (i think they are getting deleted when filterIntent() is run).
long story short- putExtra() makes all the intents look the same still... how can i make them look different so they wont get deleted (and keep track of them in case i want to delete a specific one)
Actually i m little bit confused in animation set? i have more than two or three animations how can i put them in animation set? and one more thing this is very important..that my image is moving from one place to another through translate animation. but it is not showing the motion and looking like that the image was invisible there and after clicking its visible.. how can i show motion that image is moving from one place to another in translate animation.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have searched and searched and I just can't get this code to work. I have a main.xml layout and a setting.xml. I have some values I would like the Settings.class to change in my main apps class.Three string to be exact. I have tried this simple test code in my main app class.
settings.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(), Settings.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, 0);}});
//Then a function
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent){
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
String value = extras.getString("myKey");
if(value!=null){
Log.d("hmmm",value);}}}
In my settings.class I have the following
returnHome.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra("myKey", "YEAH");
setResult(RESULT_OK, intent);
finish();}});
Back in main app class it is not getting logged. Like I said I have three string in the main class that I want settings class to change and send back.
On the market, there's an application called App Protector, which seems to effectively block the launching of configured activities until a password is correctly provided. By default, it blocks access to itself (not very interesting), Settings, and a few others. I wrote my own app to launch settings (rather than doing so through the home screen) and App Protector continued to do the job it claims to do.
When an activity that is protected is started, App Protector's password input activity is shown instead. Once the correct password is provided, the activity that was started comes to the front.
First -- does anyone know how this app is able to get between the rest of the system and the activities it protects? I would like to do something along these lines in my own application as well. Perhaps this app is receiving a broadcast about other activities coming to the foreground, and when the foreground activity is protected, it forces itself to the foreground?
Second -- does anyone know how well this technique will stand up to attack? Are there other ways to circumvent, where start Activity(...) fails to? It seems that one could use adb to un install it, thus removing its protection easily, but if I pursue my plans here, the app will be a part of a device's firmware (which, I assume, offers some protection against its apps being installed?)
I need to run six animations simultaneously (each animation simulates a roll of dice, each dice is a custom text view) and at the end of those animations, I need to get back the number of each roll. As each animation changes the number of each dice five times (to simulate the roll), I want to wait that each animation has ended to calculate the sum of each roll. I tried to regroup in one the six animations (so that with an animation listener, I would have been able to wait the end of the animation) but I didn't manage it.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've been looking around in the framework source and I can get my head around some things. For instance, in the ScrollView, the animated scrolling is done by using computeScroll(). To make the screen redraw (and thus call computeScroll() again), postInvalidate() is used. Why is that one used, instead of a regular invalidate-call?
Secondly, I wonder some things about the Animation framework. I know how a ViewGroup is responsible for animating the children (modifying the Canvas and so on), but what drives the animation, i.e. what makes the screen redraw over and over again? In the case of the ScrollView, it's the call to postInvalidate() made from computeScroll(), but what is it in the case of an Animation?
I'm developing chess game for Android (androidchess.appspot.com). If I want to add animations, should I use custom View extending Canvas (I do this now), or custom View extending SurfaceView?

View 1 Replies View RelatedDevelopers. I am a newbie to Android but a seasoned developer in UI, Java , and ECLIPSE. I am trying to do something I believe is very simple yet I am struggling. I have two tabs, A & B. I want to put an Activity in each tab. I want to have the 'B' Activity live inside 'A' so I can access it within 'A'. 'A' has a clock and every second that passes I need to update information in 'B', even if 'A' is not currently shown. I put 'B' into the 2nd tab as follows:TabSpec mapInfo=tabs.newTabSpec("tag3"); Intent intent = new Intent(this, MathleteMapActivity.class)mapInfo.setContent(intent); mapInfo.setIndicator("Course Map");tabs.addTab(mapInfo); I am totally confused on how to get the "MathleteMapActivity" Activity from the Intent 'intent'. There appears no way to do this. Can anyone please recommend a cleaner way to do this knowing what I am trying to do?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am implementing a simple app. I need to start an activity based on the state of the Activity. Lets take i am using a button to start the activity.
1. If the activity is not started, I need to start XYZ activity.

3. If the XYZ activity is not in focus (like onPause) state then, I need to change the button state.Can you please help me in the flags that i need to use for starting the intent. Is it possible to get the state of activity before I start that activity?
Working with android I realized that implicit intents are good choice in most of cases due to their's flexibility. But what's about explicit intents? What are benefits of using them? What are common cases when it's a good practice to use them?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am at a stage where I can understand and write a decent Android application. At this stage, I am still not comfortable with SurfaceHolder, Canvas, View invalidate() etc. I don't have a CS background so I must've missed these from a CS Graphics course or something.
Starting directly with Android seemed like a bad idea because there are not many examples out there. And sometimes I am getting things done, but I don't understand what the heck is going on. For instance, there are a few dangling observations. Calling invalidate() from within a view calls its onDraw method but from outside it doesn't do anything and I don't know why this is happening. I know SurfaceHolder can be a powerful thing but I don't know how to use it.
For an absolute beginner to be able to handle this stuff, what are the resources one should follow? Is it animation basics or screen rendering or something else altogether? I mean, it cannot be the case that Android guys invented these concepts right? They must be similar to something out there which has some tutorials already. My end goal is to put myself in a position where I can write some simple custom views that can animate themselves and use some basic physics to react to touch events.
