Android :: Avoiding Duplicate Resources In Project / Want Some Of Landscape Images
Aug 25, 2010
I have some images in my drawable folder and they have landscape versions in drawable-land. However I want some of the landscape images to be shared, as it seems a waste to duplicate the file with a different name. Is it possible to make a sym link (shortcut) or something for one of the duplicated files to prevent wasting space
Folder explanation below as I'm not great at explaining myself:
/drawable
> image1.png
> image2.png
/drawable-land
>image1.png <-- This image
>image2.png <-- is identical to this file

I have Gmail set up on my Nexus One (personal email). I also have Microsoft exchange setup (work email) and both work fine. The problem is that under my contacts there are duplicate entries both for Gmail and Microsoft exchange. That is causing some problems with my SMS app (duplicate contacts) and wanted to see how I could avoid syncing Microsoft exchange and delete it from my contact but still keep it on my phone. I have already unchecked the box to not sync my contacts but did that after adding it.

I am currently showing a notification. When the user clicks this noticiation, the application is started. The notification persists, to indicate that the service is running in the background.
CODE:..............
However, I have detected a case where a bug appears. If the user starts the application through clicking the normal icon, and while the activity is running clicks the notification, then a new activity is started without the earlier one exiting, the later being on top of the earlier. And that is not all: Further clicks on the notification will create additional activities and place them on top of those already running. How can I prevent this? Is there a nice check to do to see if a certain activity is currently being shown or is loaded?

I have project A with some classes and some resources (used for classes configuration). I'd like to reuse its classes (and resources necessary for them) in another project B (and possibly in more projects). Currently I have 2 projects in Eclipse and they both builds fine, but when project B is started in emulator it fails with error.It should get classes and resources from both projects and package them together. 2) Make a third project which consists of symbolic links to classes and resources of those two projects. 3) Make project A as a service and consume it in project B. They all are imperfect: - 1 and 2 would pack classes and resources of project A into the .apk of project B. - 3 has performance penalty and reuse is not so easy.

How do I load the image dynamically through the code? If its unclear, I mean, I want to load image files by name based on the condition in the code. If I use images as resources, the image names have to be hard coded. This is unacceptable to me. If I load image in a webview (with image src path dynamically), the time it takes to load is unacceptable to me. Can anyone suggest any other way to load the images dynamically?

I have 24 .png images and a ImageView. On user touch I change the ImageView to be one of the 24 images. I'm currently doing setImageResource(R.drawable.hour_1);, but there is a slight delay after I touch the screen and the ImageView actually changes. I figure the delay is the resource being loaded, but I can't find a better way to do this.

I am trying to move a set of images currently in the resources/drawable-hdpi folder to the Assets folder.
These images are copied to the private application directory when the app is installed.
When I do this the resulting image is smaller than when I had the image in the resources folder. i.e. the baked beans image is smaller than the others. If I load the baked beans images from the drawables folder it is the same size as the other product images.
I have tried to scale the image but it has no effect.
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
ImageView imView = (ImageView)rowView.findViewById(R.id.product_thumb nail);
ImageView imProduct = (ImageView)rowView.findViewById(R.id.product_icon) ;
tvName.setText((CharSequence) values.get(position).getName());
[Code]...

I was working on Android 1.5, but now moved to the latest version. So there is only "drawable" folder in Android 1.5, but now There are 3 different folder for storing images in android project. And as i have found some articles for these 3 folders that
hdpi means High-dpi
mdpi means medium-dpi
ldpi means low-dpi
But still in confusion that what is the exact purpose of these 3 folders and when to use particular folder to store images in that?

I'm writing an application that contains a lot of videos (~ 600 Mb). Obviously, this is too much to store in the device's application space and these videos need to be stored on the device's sdcard. However, I'm trying to decide what is the best way to do this. I could put the videos on a web server and let the user download them as he views them or in the background as he's watching other videos.
But ideally I'd like for the videos to be included in the application download from the market. I'm not even sure if that's possible. One option would be to store the entire application on the sdcard, videos and all, but that would make the application only work on Android 2.2 and higher. Is there a way to specify resources in your Android project that will not be stored in the application space but instead stored on the sdcard?

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?

Somethings I'll have an? .xml file selected when I compile a project, only to have a? .out.xml generated. Deleting the file doesn't clear the error, and Eclipse won't compile the project. It just reports that your project contains errors. The solution is to go to Project/Clean. This will clear the error in the project and allow it to compile.

I can now get our Android project to talk to our non-Android project. But there's still an issue: I are trying to have an Android class call a non Android Hello World class. I tried compiling our non-Android Hello World class in a separate Eclipse workspace. I then packaged it into a jar. I imported that jar into our Android Hello World class.
I then called one of the methods in the non-Android Hello World class. When I ran the Android Hello World class as an Android application, the following runtime error occurred. Here are the Android debug logs:
08-11 09:07:56.764: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(333): FATAL EXCEPTION: main

I have 2 android projects out of which I modified one to work as a library. I want the main project to refer to this library to perform few functions. While this scenario works just as expected, I want to introduce one more functionality. I want to link this library project with another just a java project which has code common to both Android and Blackberry applications. This second part however doesn't seem to work and throws "The application <appname> (<package name>) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" with a ForceClose button. I would greatly appreciate if someone can give a brief information on how to make this work.

I am a C# developer and getting started with Android. I am attempting to duplicate a couple applications I already have in VS. The project is made of 2 executables and 1 common assembly. The 2 executables contain the application specific logic while the common contains centralized forms and logic (such as login form). I am using Eclipse. So how can I accomplish this layout?

I followed the instructions here on how to create an Android library project, and use it in an Android application:
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/eclipse-adt.html
But it is not working. I can see the library project is added to my application but I cannot reference anything in it because it won't build. The R.java file from the lib is NOT being added to my application project, so the lib project contains tons of errors, everywhere it tries to reference it's own R.java file.
I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but in the console there are messages stating that the there is "No resource identifier found for attribute 'X' in package 'Lib Package'. My library package has a a few styleable attributes defined for a custom view I made, all of which are being complained about in this console message. The library builds just fine, and I don't get those messages in the console until I hook the library to my application, so I don't know what's up with this.

When I right click the project in the eclipse, select "Properties". In the property page, select Android. According to the document, you can add the library project through that page. But my problem is that, there is no library information on the page. It only lists "project build target"

Apparently you can't have a file in "assets" larger than 1MB (except for certain file types) because it's considered too large to uncompress. But I'm finding mixed info about how to circumvent this limitation. Some say that you can put the files in "raw" and avoid the limitation but others say that files in "raw" are compressed too.And there's the -0 aapt option that can be used to turn off compression for certain file types, but there's no way to specify aapt options in Carbide. I realize that I can break the file into pieces, but that's error- prone on both ends.And using one of the known uncompressed file types not only confuses things but also runs the risk that the Android PTB will decide to start compressing that file type.

I want to download an image from the 'net and set it as the users background. This works great over wi-fi, and some 3G networks, but others (T-Mobile UK, for sure) seem to compress the images before sending them. This effect is noticeable when using the browser, too - however, if you long press on an image and save it, when viewing in the gallery it is either not compressed at all, or substantially less so. I want to be able to do this in my own app.I assume it has something to do with the HTTP headers, but of the ones I've modified, none has made a difference.

I have the following situation. I have a task with the following activity stack -- A - B - C I have a menu item that allows me to start activity D; so my activity stack looks like this -- A - B - C - D Then I could select a menu item that allows me to start an activity C, which would cause my activity stack to look like this: A - B - C - D - C Then I could go back (via the menu item) to activity D, making my activity stack look like this: A - B - C - D - C - D Doing this a few more times, it would wind up looking like this -- A - B - C - D - C - D - C - D - C - D - C - D - C - D - C - D - C - D - C - D - C - D This seems kinda stupid to me. I'd like it to simply re-use an activity, or pop the activity below to be on top (which goes against the nature of a "stack"). So, what I mean is if I had this activity stack: A - B - C - D And I started activity C (from the menu), I would get: A - B - D - C And if I then started activity D (from the menu), I would get: A - B - C - D Is there a way to do this without keeping some global list of activities and doing gross things to them to reorder them?

Al other cases ok. Just this case* long press "menu" button*.

Since yesterday I got an idea running around my mind but I donīt know first if it would work, and then how "hack" it would be.
People who develop audio processing/recording/playback apps for Android know how hard it is to maintain GC away from our critical paths: playing and recording audio. Processing must be as optimized as possible not only to save battery and use less CPU, but also not to create new objects/allocate new memory spaces ... this all to avoid GC at all cost. Well, we have knowledge and this we can handle (mostly). But what about all the other processing that happens from and for user interaction? Media players display images, some apps display ads, ... and sometimes we have to avoid releasing features to the users just to maintain our critical paths free from GC.
Yesterday I stumbled upon an article about remote services and this led me to a doubt: if they can run as a different process, would a GC call from my activity impact the performance of my remote service? I really donīt know how GC works on the Dalvik so this may be a dumb question. If so, I apologize.
