Android :: Eclipse Constantly Refresh External Folders And Take Forver?
Jan 10, 2010
Just my a new Android phone and I've been tinkering with some basic apps. It's been driving my crazy that the Android plugin for Eclipse refreshes externals folders whenever I save ANYTHING. Normally I wouldn't mind but when it takes 10s to refresh I start to notice. I already searched and other people have this problem, but there are no solutions. If it matters, Eclipse 3.5 running on a 64bit jvm on Ubuntu 9.10

I have set up Eclipse to run as smoothly as possible because I was having a lot of problems with it running out of memory in my last machine. One of the configurations was to have it automatically refresh the workspace every time I save. I don't know if that is the problem but I thought I's mention it. Here's a screenshot of the error:
It happens every time I open Eclipse and save anything. I was also having another problem with something to do with my workspace being compliant with Java 1.6 when I need 1.5. But then I switched and the problem went away. This problem then popped up. Does anyone know any solution to this because it is really getting annoying now.

I'm using eclipse for Android development, and the editor always seems to take a while to actually update and recognize if I change an ID in a layout, then try to use it in a class with R.id.someId. Is there a way to force a refresh?

When I add drawable resources to my project they do not show up in the list of drawables in the Reference Chooser. I checked the R file and there are references for the files.
I have tried refreshing the project, cleaning the project, and fixing project properties and nothing seems to help. Sometimes a couple will randomly show up in there, but not all of them.
The only consistent way I can get them to show up is to restart Eclipse.
Further findings:
After some trials, I found an other inconvenient work around to he issue. Turns out when importing multiple files into the project at once, Eclipse will only add the last one imported into the reference chooser. So when I imported my images one at a time, they all show up properly!
Like I said, inconvenient considering the amount of images I have left to import, but maybe with this new information it may help nail down where the issue may be and a possible fix.

I need to rely on external app (Barcode scanner in my case). The eclipse emulator crashes when I try to download it from within the emulator itself.
Is there a way to download it using the emulator?
Or Is there a way to directly install the APK and make it available for my application?

I'm working with Android at the moment, trying to avoid using Eclipse (for which I have an irrational hatred).
I need to include an external .jar file (used in my Activity)and have no idea how to link it for ant debug...
I've read up on build.xml files but adding <path id="compiler.classpath">...</...> or <classpath> nodes to the XML doesn't help fix it.

I have a workspace with a few projects in it. App1 and App2 are Android applications. Common is an Android library project. App1 and App2 depend upon Common (linked via the Android tab). Common has some external dependencies, namely httpmime & apache-mime4j, which exist as jar files. For some reason, it appears that I need to add my mime jars to the build path of App1 and App2 for compilation to succeed. This seems really dumb. In normal Java, I would add Common to the build path of App1 and App2 and things would work. Is this expected that I have to add my jars to every Android application?

After implementing some Android Apps, including several Map activities, I try to refresh the activity when the GPS listener's onLocationChanged() mehtod is called. I have no idea how to tell the map activity to refresh on its own and display the new coords. the coords to store will have to be in global values, so that the location listener will have access to it. In my sample GPS-class (see code below) I just changed the text of a text view....but how to do that in map view?

I usually view email with attachments from my pc because I usually lack the time to download the attachment. Today, I had some spare time so I tried to download an attachment. It downloaded fine but when I went to view it, I received a pop-up box to save it to the sd card. After pressing ok, I was told the save was successful but now I can't find it. Aside from pics and videos, how do I access other folders with saved data?

I can't seem to get anything back from https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ - even accessing from a browser just gives a 404.

I've got a bunch of live wallpapers for sale, and have a lot of 1-star comments that just say "Doesn't open". This is because there's no launcher activity, so the open button is greyed out after download. I'm attempting to fix this by including an activity that explains what to do, and I'm trying to avoid useless app clutter by disabling that activity once they've successfully used the wallpaper. This seems to work fine, the problem is the app icon doesn't go away right away. It stays in the app drawer and if you tap it you get a "this has been disabled" message. Eventually it will be removed if the phone is rebooted or if the home app is restarted. I'd like to clean this up. Is there a way to tell Home to refresh this list, or to otherwise tell it to remove the icon from the listing? It seems a bit rude to process kill Home for this purpose, and clearly something like this happens when an app is installed/ uninstalled.

All of a sudden, in my notifications area, there is something that is almost always "synchronizing my contacts". This just all of a sudden appeared. I didn't download any app for this, and my contacts don't even appear in gmail.Anyone know what is doing this? I'm always worried about what apps send all my info out. Something seems fishy. The icon that appears on the top left is gray and spins.

I'm a novice Android programmer, and to help me understand how Intents really work, I wanted to put together a small Activity which would let the user call startActivity() with any action and data they want. I tried many different combinations, including "android.intent.action.VIEW" and "http://www.google.com". No matter what combinations I use, I always get an ActivityNotFoundException. Any ideas as to why?
The code in my only Activity is below....

I have an activity with a HorizontalScrollView. When it opens, I start filling this view (or rather, a container layout inside it) with another views. This is done from another thread by using handler.post.
The views are added in bunches of 15, and when there are no more views to add, I start updating them with new data (this is a kind of streaming data from a server).
The problem is that the scrollview is empty until all of the views are added. As soon as they are all added and start updating, the scrollview gets drawn.
How do I refresh it in the process of adding views? I don't want the screen to be empty for 3 seconds while all of the views are added.

I would like to make a Linear Layout that was created from xml invisible, and another Linear Layout visible to replace it. The replacement layout starts out as invisible. When I make the originally visible layout invisible, it still leaves space for it on the screen. How can I refresh the screen so that space is gone?

I have a START and STOP button in the main screen of an App. there are some GUI and threads that are instantiated when I click on START. When I click on stop, I want everything to be stopped and the activity should come back to its origin state. To the state that is exactly same like when launched (when we tapped on App icon in mobile).Is it possible to do this? I tried with finish() , this killed the app and exited . I don't want to exit from main screen. rather, on clicking STOP I want app to come back to origin or born state.

I have a strange problem with StateListDrawable or maybe (probably) I'm missing something. I created a test application for it and the same problem occurs. So, this is my StateListDrawable resourse in file test_selection.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android"> <item android:state_selected="true"> <shape android:shape="rectangle" android:background="#ff0000"> <corners android:radius="10dp" /> <gradient android:startColor="#ff5555" android:endColor="#ff5555" android:angle="0" /> </shape> </item> <item android:state_selected="false"> <shape android:shape="rectangle" android:background="#eeeeee"> <corners android:radius="10dp" /> <gradient android:startColor="#eeeeee" android:endColor="#eeeeee" android:angle="0" /> </shape>.............................
When Activity starts I try to set the state of my Drawable (the StateListDrawable) with the value SELECTED. It seems all very simple.... but the problem is that the state is not shown. If, later, I click a button and execute the method updateView() the state changes. Where is my problem? Where am I wrong?

In my app, I have different activities with listviews. The datas come from a server with a REST method, and it's only done once, when I start the application.
The pattern that I'd like to set is to precharge all the listviews with the JSONs that I already have in local, and in parallel, launch a thread that get the new JSONs files with my REST methods, and then update the listviews.
For now, when I start the app, I parse my JSONs files, and build all the lists of objects. I access them later in a static way, from my lists adapters.
So I would like to know the best way to launch this REST thread, and update the listview. Should I use AsyncTask ? A service ? and then, when I update my local JSONs, I have to re-parse them, updates the lists of object, and call in my adapters NotifyDataChanged ?

I don't need a strict code related answer I just need somebody to tell me what I am missing.My application has to retrieve from a web service (xmlrpc) the positions of some users I know and update their position on a MapView.So I decided to use a Service and an Activity extending MapActivity to show results.
I thought about two solutions:
I ) start the service and make it ask every minute for these positions and send them to the activity as a bundle via intent. (This didn't work out well, since once shown I couldn't find a method to let the activity continue refresh itself until she stop receiving intents+data from the service)
II ) Incorporate a thread within the activity which starts the service via context.startService(...) every minute. And the MapUI refresh itself once the service send back an intent and stop itself. (Maybe I will fall in the same problem category as before I haven't tryied yet).
I am also giving directions (via maps.google ws) in this way I'd like to refresh only users positions on the map and save the route.What Am I missing do you have any suggestions? related to activities/services internal mechanics, don't know launch modes, use broadcast receivers or intent filters?

I really like the Weather Channel App and Weatherbug, but they both constantly start themselves and run in the background no matter what my settings are.I don't need my phone to update weather in the background as I don't check it that often.I just want something that I can open, check the weather and CLOSE really close.Is there a decent Weather App that will let me close it and not run on its own?Seems to me that its a common problem with apps, that many devs don't properly shut them down or force them to run unnecessarily.
