I would like to use a .jar file generated by SWIG in an Android application. What is the best way to deploy all of the underlying dll's with the Android application?
In a desktop environment, my PATH variable includes the folder containing these dll's.

I'm currently working on Android NDK, porting my libs, and I'm using SWIG (Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator) that is a great tool to generate JNI code around my C/C++ headers for Java.
However, there is a big issue using it on Android, 'cause of incomplete JNI support : 'Weak Global References' are missing. Unfortunatly, SWIG is waiting for a full compatible Oracle/Sun JVM, and use this feature with its 'director' option (for proxy class creation).
For now, I comment each time, in a (kind of) bad way, the use of weak global references in my generated C/C++ wrapper files (4 lines in my case). I think it is really a shame that we can't use (one of) the best wrapper with Android NDK just for one missing feature.
I read that Google Team will add it in future release : "NewWeakGlobalRef and DeleteWeakGlobalRef are not implemented. The VM supports weak references, but not JNI "weak global" references. These will be supported in a future release." (http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/ dalvik.git;a=blob_plain;f=docs/jni-tips.html;hb=HEAD)
So my question is, does anybody know when 'Weak Global References' will appear in Android NDK ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am in need to write an application for Android devices that needs to access a large (~200MB) database.
What would be the best way to do this? Can I just stick the database in the assets folder? I have read of various limitations that apply to the entire application size and to individual resources within, especially on some devices... What are exactly these limits?
Is there any way to do this apart from a post-installation download from an external server?
I have 2 projects in the following layout
MainActivityProject -> BaseProject
(i.e. MainActivityProject depends on the other project). Both are android projects created with the eclipse "New Android project functionality) however, the BaseProject does not have an activity defined. However, in BaseProject I define an activity base class where MainActivityProject's Activity derives from. This used to work fine up until 1.1 but now with the 1.5 SDK I get ClassNotFoundExceptions when launching the app.
Any suggestion on how to fix this? I obviously dont want to copy all the sources to a single project as I intend to reuse my Activity base class for other things (it contains some boiler plate stuff that I dont want to have in each and every activity.
I want to publish my application (ABC). Its an audiobook file(just for example.) wrapped as apk. When the user install this application it needs to check whether another application (XYZ) already installed or not. If not let the user know they have to install the application XYZ first before installing ABC.

If user changed orientation I have to shutdown one of them and start another. What is the best way to manage them? Does it make sense to create GroupActivity? Or each Activity should check if the current orientation is what it needs? If so, is it save to start new Activity in onCreate method of previous one (which is not actually created yet)?

For the dotnet client we keep the allowCookies="true" in our binding configuration and it sends the same sessionid and keeps my sessions intact in my WCF services (My services are
interdependent and use the sessions).
Any one know any such setting for ksoap2-android, that will allow me to consume the
WCF service keeping my session intact on the server.
Currently when i make a new call to the service, the sessionid gets changed and all my
session variables clear out and loose their values.
According to the API doc, Android seems to support for changing the data size of Parcel container. And there is no notice limiting the size of Parcel. The document is here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Parcel.html#setData...()
On the other hand, when our developers are doing some tests on this, the size is dependent on the platform and devices.
So i just wonder whether there is any limit on the data size of Parcel. At least this information should be mentioned in the API document.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm an android newbie having a lot of troubles with the android emulator. I have inconsistent luck in starting up the emulator, and no luck if I start it from within eclipse instead of from the commandline (it waits forever and never boots -- not even after 24 hours).
However, since I figured out how to get it to (sometimes!) start from the command line, I have a workaround to that particular problem. But I have no workaround for my latest problem.
When I try to run it:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am asking this because recently bought a BLU VIVO D910a phone from U.S., it has Android 4.0 firmware and its 3G Network is HSDPA 850 / 1900.
I made a big mistake, because the country where I currently live and work (Montenegro) uses 2100 3G network. I shoud have ordered the international version of BLU Vivo, the D910i which has HSDPA 850 / 2100. So, currently I cannot make use of the 3G data capability of my new phone
My question is: if I get the firmware (or just the modem.bin) of D910i and flash it to my phone will I change by this way the 3G frequency or it is hardware-dependent?
I am about to assist in deploying a large amount of android device. The requirement is, that the devices (700+) need to be charged, configured and provisioned with the relevant applications for the end-users before delivery.
Device info:
Android 2.3.3
Samsung Galaxy SII
This is not windows mobile, so I am unsure if I can code/design a solution to avoid this enormous manual task.
Is it possible to code something for an sd-card that will be automatically triggered on insertion (as on WM)? This would then provision the device etc.
Is it possible to bypass the initial prompts - To my knowledge you will be prompted for entering the info for your google accounts?
do I then need to create 700+ google accounts?
I just started to play with android dev and java+eclipse is pretty new to me. I managed to create simple project and run it on my device. Now I want to create simple game (more of them actually) and I would love to use shared code base for all of them (game loop, initialization, etc..). Problem is that I have no idea how to correctly do this. I created android project called engine with all basic stuff that I need and made it work on device. Now I tried to create another project in same workspace called mygame. Main class (activity) of mygame is MyGameApp which inherits from EngineApp (main activity of my engine project) which inherits from Activity. I added engine project into required projects in mygame build path tab in properties. Problem is that when I try to run this project it crashes on ClassNotFoundException trying to find my MyGameApp class.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an open-source application on the Android market. It seems to work fine for me (with over 1,000 active installs, I have to presume that it works for most people).I recently got a bug report that indicated a problem for at least three users on Samsung phones (Intercept and Captivate). I have been unable to reproduce the problem on my ADP2 and on the emulator.In order to get enough data to diagnose the problem, I first tried to add logging and then I asked users to submit logs via Log Collector. Each time a user tried to send the log (there were four attempts), it was truncated and I did not get any useful data.I then added ACRA to the project in an attempt to get information, but I don't seem to be able to automatically detect the bug in order to send a report.Since I don't have a Samsung phone and I can't reproduce it on anything where I could connect with the debugger, I am mostly out of ideas. The only idea I have left is to add a button to the UI to generate a report.Are there any other approaches to suggest?
Update: since people are asking for more specifics: essentially, the app reads in text files from the assets and puts them (with some preprocessing) into a TextView in a ScrollView. (The data is prgressively added to a SpannableStringBuffer and then that is passed to TextView's setText() function.) Depending on the options chosen, the text displayed is between 15k-115k. On phones with this issue, only part of the text is displayed. The cutoff point depends on the options, but seems to be somewhere between 17k-18k.
ACRA sends a report for all uncaught exceptions and puts them into a Google Form/Spreadsheet. I've gotten reports from my emulator and from my phone, so I know that end works. (Actually, I've often found it faster to debug from the stack trace in that report than to attach the debugger to the process.)Phone specs: I have exercised the app on emulators running 1.5, 1.6, 2.1, and 2.2. My phone is ADP2 (the developer version of the MyTouch), but I've installed a third-party ROM to jump up to Froyo (2.2). I am unaware of an emulator specifically for the Samsung OS build, although that would be quite helpful here.Since the expected text length is constant, I should be able to detect if it is read correctly or not. I added checks at the end of my text processing, but those never triggered, indicating that the problem was not with reading the file. I then tried adding checks to onPostCreate and onPostResume, but those did not fail either. It seems that the UI thread had not yet actually run at that point, though.I've now done 6 private APK versions attached to the bug in the bug tracker. I frankly am surprised that any users are still trying them. This latest version has a button to force a bug report - that will only be called after the UI thread has laid out the screen. Hopefully that will give me enough variable information to point me in the right direction.
Since I'm really not a fan of Eclipse I'm developing my Android app by following the rules listed here: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/other-ide.html When I'm deploying with the 'adb install' command I have to manually uninstall the APK from the emulator every time or else the install won't work. Is there any way to bypass this? It's fairly annoying having to add this step in every time.

Basically it will print from various standard PIM applications on the device printing Text and Graphics on Full-Size HP-PCL compatible printers as well Small Format ESC/POS mobile printers.
When I try to enable it in the settings is says Wi-Fi and "Error" below it. Could it be a bug in the ROM? In phone information the Wi-fi MAC address in unavailable.
