Android :: Droid String.xml Error For Every Character I Type / What To Do?
Aug 8, 2010
I am going through the android hello world tutorial, and have been stuck when trying to create an XML UI. For some reason, even on a new program, in which I have made no changes to the default build, it gives the error java.lang.NullPointerException after every character I type. I can't figure out why it is doing this, as I am just trying to edit the text between the Text I want to set it to say something other than what is set by default. However, even with a fresh build, no changes, and I just try to change the text within the xml tags, it still gives the error. What do I need to do to allow it to let me type? I am using the eclips IDE and the android sdk. I was able to do the first part of the tutorial that doesn't involve XML.

In Android if I have an edit text and the user entered 123456789012, how could I get the program to insert a dash every 4th character. ie: 1234-5678-9012? I guess you need to say something along the lines of:- a=Characters 1~4, b=Characters 5~8, c=Characters 9-12,

I prepared following method to convert JIS character string to UTF8 on Android SDK v.1.5. However when I pass JIS character array into JIS the returned string value is same as input. I supposed it should return "undefined" or UTF8 string, Would anybody tell me why this phenomena is occurred?
public String JIS2UNICODE(char[] jis) { String unicode = new String(jis); try { unicode = new String(unicode.getBytes("ISO2022JP"), "ISO2022JP"); } catch (Exception e) { unicode = "undefined"; } return unicode; }

For the API (Android SDK API version 8) functions whose definitions list character sequence parameters, I can feed the function String instead. Best part is that they work the same way, no hassle, no warnings. Is there a difference between the two types? And more importantly, is there an inherent danger if I send the function a String instead of a character sequence?

Since the type is determined automatically by the build system ( booleans, ints, floats and strings ) i wondered if there is any way to force the datatype to string.I tried adding a space at the end ( "5555555555 "), but then the value gets interpreted as 5.5555553E9 float! ).I also tried using getString instead of get, but then null is returned.

I'm just about to start externalizing all my String-resources to a new project and then bring them back by including the exported jar-file of this 'i18n'-project. Doing so i18n for different languages becomes easier (I could simply export just a handful of languages to the jar). can successfully change the java-references to the outsourced foo.bar.i18n.R.java BUT, all references of the xml-layouts fail Sample: ############ android:label="@string/app_name"> ############ where: "@string/app_name" is now unknown =/ I'm asking myself whether this is possible and how to resolve my issue / properly reference the externalized string-resources.

I have a strange issue. I am using KSOAP2 to create a soap request to a .net webservice. I do this in a few other places and everything works fine. The webservice basically queries a data base and takes the values from the data reader and creates a string. This string is then returned. When I run the webservice on my local machine(Without using android) it works fine. When I run it from the webserver (still not android) it works fine. When I call it from my phone however the line: String hazards = (String)envelope.getResponse().toString () ; //Get response from .net Web service Simply is filled with anyType{}. Now if I go to the webservice and I manually type in the contents from the database to represent what the string concatenation should be it works perfectly. The line: String hazards = (String)envelope.getResponse().toString(); //Get response from .net Web service Now returns the string value i need. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening or know a better place to ask this question?

Here is the code.

I'm trying to use ksoap to call a simple webservice. I followed this video to try to get started. When I call "getResponse()" on the envelope I just get the string "Error". There's no exceptions thrown or any other detail. I've successfully connected to a simple webservice I just setup on my local machine. Could this potentially be related to being behind a proxy server here at work? My code is below:

I'm trying use abootimg to extract the bootimg.cfg file but it keeps giving me the error:
Code:
~/Projects/dualboot_bt_android/BT5-GNOME-ARM$ abootimg -x data.img bootimg.cfg
data.img: Value too large for defined data type
I think I'm getting this because the data.img is 4.9 gbs in size, but I don't know how to resize the it...
Can't believe I overlooked it. I tried to extract it from the data.img instead of the boot.img like I was supposed to. No wonder it didn't work.

I'm relatively new to Java, eclipse and android so this could be a completely silly question, but I'm going to ask it none the less.
I've got a project I'm learning with to test connecting to the flickr api and simply displaying recent images. I'm at the point now where I want to parse the JSON received from flickr. I've downloaded gson 1.4 and added the zip to the java build path through "add external jars." It's successfully loaded and I can see google-gson under referenced libraries in the package explorer. My problem is, when I try to use it, I simply get an error.
Gson gson = new Gson();
It highlights Gson and says that "Gson cannot be resolved to a type." What am I missing here? It worked once and has since stopped. I've tried removing the jars, cleaning the project and re-adding the jars but it still doesn't work.

I have the localized strings file that is used in the Iphone app that I work on to port to Android. Are there any tools that go through the file taken from the xcode project and build the xml needed to use the strings in android? This tool should be easy to build but I appreciate any pointers to already working tools.

In Android, capturing date from datepicker and storing as string in sqlite. Sorting by date doesn't work because they're strings (unless I'm doing it wrong.I've googled this issue for ~5 days, and it looks like there should be a way to capture the date from the date picker, convert it to a Long, store it in sqlite as a Long, select and sort on the Long date value, then convert the Long back to a "mm/dd/yyyy" string for display. I've tried various combinations of parse statements, Date, FormatDate, etc. with no luck at all.On activity start, get today's date and display it in button which calls the datepicker.Capture new date from datepicker (if one is entered), save it as a long to sqlite.On opening an activity showing a listview of records, select from sqlite with orderby on date (Long), convert Long to "mm/dd/yyyy" string for display in ListView.

I have preferences where you can enable/disable what items will show up on the menu. There are 17 items. I made a string array in values/arrays.xml with titles for each of these 17 items.
I have preferences.xml which has the layout for my preferences file, and I would like to reference a single item from the string array to use as the title.
In the Android developer reference, I see how I can reference a single string with XML, but now how I can reference a string from an array resource in XML.

I have a class that creates a view to gather data via a function getView() that provides a view with an EditText.This class has also has variable answer.When the user chances the EditText I want to store the content of the EditText in answer.If I would use an onKeyListener I fear that the answer will probably get stored before the last letter is entered.Is there a good way to handle this in the getView() function via some other listener?

I have an Android app where I want to check to see if an app name that is installed matches a string passed to the function containing this code.Assuming you called checkInstalledApp('SetCPU'); and the app name on the phone is called the same thing it should return true. However, it never does. I logged the results and it should match up but it does not. Can anyone please enlighten me as to why this doesn't work?

Does anyone have any idea how to find the n-th field (string) in a delimited string where the delimiters (separator) could be either a single char or several chars.and the syntax for user-defined function is FindNthField(string,separator,position)so position 3 would return three,The separator in use would actually be Chr(13).This has to run on Android and so should be efficient.
