Android :: Best Approach For Making One Variable Available In Another Activity / Class?
Jun 22, 2009
I have tried to understand for the past 2 days what is the best approach to making the value from a variable sitting in activity A (in my case, the int position used in OnListItemClick / OnItemSelectedListener) available in another activity B (which of course sits in another class). There may be the option to write the result of the OnListItemClick int position into a small SQLite DB - but that seems to be total overkill.
Anybody could pls share the best approach with me?

I m doing some task with following code,
I want to access inner class variable from outer class method.
class Outer extends Activity
{private Handler mHandler = new Handler();
StopTheThread()
{mHandler.removeCallbacks(mUpdateTimeTask);//
This is the what I want to do:
} class Inner
{ final Runnable mUpdateTask = new = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
//Some Code Goes Here
} };
InnerClassMethod()
{ mHandler.removeCallbacks(mUpdateTimeTask);//
This statement working fine here. Here mUpdateTask is inner class variable which is not accessible from outer class.

In the past I have used Python for backend stuff along with Django for frontend stuff, but I don't know how well those two work with Android. Can anyone recommend a good way to go about making server-side software that works well with Android? Please take into account that I also want a web application as a frontend, so the backend should work with both the web app and the Android app.

I am working to set a countdown timer. I have successfully (borrowed) a number picker (spinner) and set up the dialog box for the user to set the time. This is in a class called timepickactivity and the variables are hour and mins (R.id.hour and R.id.mins). I want to call the set values (R.id.hour and R.id.mins) from the dialog (timepickeractivity) to the actual countdown class (countdown) but I can't figure out how to get the values.

I would like to setup a boolean called dFlag in the main.class of my program and reference it in another class.
I already have it setup to work locally just hitting a snag on how to do it.
Code:
public class Main extends Activity {
boolean dFlag; ///Debug flag, true=enabled | false=disabled
}
public class Other extends Activity {
if(dFLag = true) {
///Output debug message
}
}
Or is there an easier way to do what I want without having to re-invent the wheel so to speak?

I'm writing an android app that requires binding a JSON object into a domain entity with the keys from the JSON as instance variables. Since there are several domain entities, each with different instance variables that the JSON needs to bind to in the app, i'd like to write a method such as ths following: Loop through all the instance variables from the domain if a key exists in the JSON with the name of the instance variable, take the value for this key from the JSON and set the Domain's instance variable with this key name equal to this value. The reason i'm interested in the doing the binding from the class to the JSON is because if the JSON changes for some reason, I don't want it to break the app when the instance variable doesn't exist in the app's domain for a specific JSON key. Code...

I just read from internet to maintain the state of my application by overriding the onKeyDown function as given below. And set the launch mode of my activity as singleInstance. And it is working perfectly. Just want to know if it is correct approach. And how it is different from onSaveInstanceState.

I'm just getting into Android development, and I have a question about communicating between a receiver class and an activity class. I'm very new to JAVA and Android so I hope I don't sound too stupid. I'm developing an application where I intercept an SMS message and then based on various elements of that SMS I might delete it once it's been saved to the inbox. I have a receiver class that intercepts the txt message, and I am also able to delete messages from my inbox with code in the activity class using a button at the moment. The problem I have is communicating between the receiver class and the activity class where the code to delete a message resides. I tried putting that code directly into the receiver class but as I'm sure most of you already know the BroadcastReceiver class doesn't seem to support what I need to delete messages. I've been searching for an answer to this for a while, but haven't been able to find anything. Honestly I'm not sure I know enough about JAVA and Android to even recognize a solution if I saw it.

I'm new to Java and android development. In my application I need data which is accessible for a few activities. I've read that a good solution is to use Application class for this. So I use it like this:
public class MyApplication extends Application {
private String str;
public String getStr(){
return str;
}
public void setStr(String s){
str = s;
}
}
and I can access this variable from activity like this:........................................

I have an Android activity running with a custom view in it. When something happens within that custom view, I want to tell the currently running activity by changing one of the Activity member variables. Is there a way to access the current running activity member variables from within a custom view class besides passing the activity into the view class though a function arg?

Is copying the reference to the object and not the value of the object. Meaning, when I modify pos.top or pos.bottom, the original object gets modified. I'm guessing I am missing a concept of pass object by reference vs value here which I thought I understood. What is the fix here? Is it a problem with how I defined my custom class?

I'm trying to figure out the correct way to create an AsyncTask to retrieve some data from the internet and then to take that data and bundle it up in an Intent and pass it to a new activity(A list display). So in the first activity I just have an EditText and Button. In the event of an OnClick the task should be called and when it is finished the data should be bundled inside an Intent and passed to the next Activity. The problem is when I take the results from onPostExecute and set them to an instance variable of the main activity, that instance variable is still null when the task is complete. Here is the barebones version of the code:
CODE:...........
When I debug the application I see onPostExecute does contain a valid PlacesList full of results, so why is the instance variable places set to null after the task is executed? I am going about "returning data" from an AsyncTask incorrectly?

I have a class defined as
public class viewGroups extends ListActivity
Somewhere in the class I have
objItem = new clsContactGroups(context);
I am wondering what is advised to be used here? Which context?
I know four choices, but maybe there are others...
this
this.getApplicationContext()
this.getBaseContext()
this.getParent()
I use this Context to show a Toast. So I would like to show on the front-most view visible.

I have an activity class(Application Class ) which calls a service class(Service Class) and closes. The service class takes about 5 seconds to complete its task and calls a method which is present in another class(Callback Class). Now according to the result, the callback needs to notify the Application class.Once i get the callback from the service, I tried calling a method defined in the Application class. In this method i create a new intent of Application class and call startActivity(Application Class). But this is not working. Can anyone tell where i am going wrong and what can I do to solve this issue.

I must be overlooking something because I am unable to get my TabHost to display in my Activity class.I am getting the dreaded force close when I try to run the app.It will work if I extend TabActivity, but I can't do that [details at the bottom] because once I move the code from my prototype project its going to be in a custom class that inherits from Activity.

I've got two activities, one of them is called MyActivity. I want both of them to be able to use a function located in a class othat we may call MyClass. In MyClass, I try to use an intent to launch the activity AnotherActivity. Since the constructor takes a context as parameter, I simply tried to store a context from the activity in the constructor, and then use it when I try to create my intent.However, even thought none of the arguments are null (checked that with a simple if-statement), intent seems to be null and a NullPointerException is thrown. Why does it not work, and what can I do to solve the problem?
I'm quite new to Android and Java development, so please explain it as basic as you can.

I am new to Android, and I haven't developed any app regarding databases on Android yet. So I have a few basic questions. I am after a good database class sample, that will let me to run the CRUD operations. I would like to use it as a static class
like: clsDB->Select("select * from clients");
or objClient->Delete(clientid);
I am wondering if someone, can share his database classes, if more people share the best. Also I have in mind to reuse this class in multiple ways, I will have services, activities etc...

I've adapted the GridInputProcessor-class of the 3D-Gallery ( http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/apps/Gallery3D.git;a=blob;f=src/com/cooliris/media/GridInputProcessor.java;h=91dfd4783be6b21ec8ff2518a5c244752570e90d;hb=HEAD ) so that it detects upward/downward swipes.
The detection of swipes works, but I now want to start another activity (or draw a bitmap on the currently displayed activity), but I seemingly can't use startActivity(mContext, myIntent), because the class declaration is public final class GridInputProcessor implements GestureDetector.OnGestureListener, GestureDetector.OnDoubleTapListener {so it doesn't extend Activity...
Can I still start an Activity through this class, or how would I go about doing this? I have also tried sending a broadcast, but this is also not "implemented".
