I am trying to connect to a MSMQ from an Android phone. The problem is that all the libraries that I seem to find have to run in Windows since they appear to just be wrappers around C libraries ("DLL"). I found J-Integra but it seems like a very messy non-open source solution. Anybody has any ideas? And does anybody know of a server in linux to host queues that I can install for testing?

When using torrent-fu, does the computer (doing the downloading) have to be on? Or can I just use torrent-fu to find torrents when I'm at work, queue them up, and when I get home turn the computer on and it'll start the downloads?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to store a queue into a DB. I need to be able to insert at the head, and append at the tail. I also need to remove items from the head.
Each item is just a string. I need to maintain a todo list -- high priority items are added to the beginning of the queue. and low priority items are append to the end.
I am queuing up a bunch of runnables into a thread via a Handler.post(). I would like the ability to send a note to that thread that it should pause. By pause I mean, finish the runnable or message you are currently working on, but don't go to the next message or runnable in your message queue until I tell you to continue.

I'm working on a board game and I'm sending status messages back to the user with this wrapper function I created for Toast:
CODE:...........
The problem is I've made the flow of game play so simple I can now play it so fast Toast messages queue up, even to the point where they continue to show on the desktop after I quit out of the game. t.cancel() doesn't seem to cancel out the previous message, anyone know what I might be doing wrong?
Is it possible, with an IntentService, to send another intent to the IntentService from within the IntentService? For example, say my IntentService is processing an Intent which has it write a bunch of data to the database. During this time, several other Intents to write other data may [or may not] have been queued up in the IntentService. Suppose, after processing that Intent by writing the data to the application's database, I want to queue up another Intent to send that data via web service to "the cloud." Perhaps I want to queue this processing in another Intent because sending to the cloud is secondary. Is it possible? Would it cause any problems if the Intent being processed is the only Intent in the queue at the time the IntentService is trying to queue another Intent?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI read somewhere (and have observed) that starting threads is slow. I always assumed that AsyncTask created and reused a single thread because it required being started inside the UI thread.The following (anonymized) code is called from a ListAdapter's getView method to load images asynchronously. It works well until the user moves the list quickly, and then it becomes "janky".final File imageFile = new File(getCacheDir().getPath() + "/img/" + p.image);image.setVisibility(View.GONE);view.findViewById(R.id.imageLoading).setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
(new AsyncTask<Void, Void, Bitmap>() {
@Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(Void... params) {
try {Bitmap image;
if (!imageFile.exists() || imageFile.length() == 0) {
image = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new URL(
"http://example.com/images/"
+ p.image).openStream());
image.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 85,
new FileOutputStream(imageFile));
image.recycle();
}image = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imageFile.getPath(),
bitmapOptions);
return image;
} catch (MalformedURLException ex) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
ex.printStackTrace();
return null;
} catch (IOException ex) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
ex.printStackTrace();
return null;
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap image) {
if (view.getTag() != p) // The view was recycled.
return;
view.findViewById(R.id.imageLoading).setVisibility(
View.GONE);
view.findViewById(R.id.image)
.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.image))
.setImageBitmap(image);
}}).execute();I'm thinking that a queue-based method would work better, but I'm wondering if there is one or if I should attempt to create my own implementation.
I'm writing unit tests for a ListActivity in Android that uses a handler to update a ListAdapter. While my activity works in the Android emulator, running the same code in a unit test doesn't update my adapter: calls to sendEmptyMessage do not call handleMessage in my activity's Handler. How do I get my ActivityUnitTestCase to sync with the MessageQueue thread and call my Handler?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI decided to start pipelining input to increase responsiveness in my games. Basically what I do is when the activity receives a Key or Motion event, it sends it to a feed method in the game, which encapsulates it with a time and whatever else I need and puts it in a queue then immediately returns so the UI loop is never held up waiting for long. The main loop later processes the queue, applying the events in it at the appropriate times.
This works great and makes the games snappy, although now I'm starting to miss touch events intermittently. I realized that the events could be recycled objects and that could make them not safe to queue. Is this the case or is it safe to queue them for deferred processing like I'm doing?
I was curious about the nature of the handleMessage() and sendMessage() behavior of the Handler class. I want to be able to send message to another thread in such a way that the destination thread can process the message queue when it wants to. It seems, however, that the message is processed by handleMessage() practically as soon as it's sent.
I'm trying to design a game loop thread that does something like this:
CODE:.....
However, I as soon as sendMessage() is called (from the parent/calling thread), the Handler.handleMessage() is processed (in the child/receiving thread), even if the child/receiving thread is blocking in a while loop.
I've seen this problem solved in other games by using a thread-safe list (ConcurrentLinkedQueue). The UI thread just posts events to this queue, and the game loop can remove the events as it seems fit. I just assumed the Handler class was designed for this purpose. It seems it's more intended for asynchronous callbacks to the parent thread.

View 10 Replies View RelatedWhats the scoop behind which one is really better? The stock messaging app or aftermarket apps (handcent and chomp). I use Handcent, and lately I have been finding it to be quite laggy and slow, even with cache cleared and all threads deleted. Is the only difference between stock and aftermarket, the fact that you can customize? I would much rather have a plain looking stock app that performs well, then a customizable aftermarket app that is slow. I am just looking for some opinions.

I'm looking for a financial app that will sync with microsoft money. Something like Ultrasoft Money. I used that on my windows mobile phone and it synced flawlessly and effortlessly. I know there are other financial programs out there that will allow you to keep a checkbook on your phone, but I don't want the checkbook solely on the phone, I want it on the desktop too and microsoft money is already there and works great. Some of these other apps out there will sync with ms money if you download the file in this format to your sd card, hold your tongue to the top of your mouth, move the file to the computer via USB, move your tongue 90 degrees to the north, change the file format and then import it from within money. well, you get the idea. I don't want to have to do all that.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI know with Android 2.x there is the ability to tap into Microsoft Exchange, for at least email, if not calendar and contacts. I would like to see how this was accomplished. Particularly because Microsoft Exchange exposes SOAP web services, and I understand there is no native Android support for SOAP. Since this is open source, shouldn't I be able to find something in the Android source? If so, can you point me in the right direction of where to find it in the ~4Gig (!) source? I want to develop an application that accesses Exchange contacts and calendars, but don't want to reinvent that piece.
