View 5 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Cannot Call Method Of View Object Inside Activity
Nov 7, 2010In my program I have a custom view object. Inside the view class is a method called foo. For some reason when I call foo from my activity, it doesn't fire. Here is the code:
XML of the custom view:
<com.company.application.MyView android:id="@+id/my_view" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
The activity code:
public class Main extends Activity { MyView mView;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main);
LayoutInflater li = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View v = li.inflate(R.layout.main, null); mView= (MyView) v.findViewById(R.id.my_view);
//A button to fire the method inside foo() Button switchLeft = (Button) findViewById(R.id.switch_left); switchLeft.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View v) { callTest(); } } );
} public void callTest() { Log.w(this.getClass().getName(), "clicked left arrow");
mView.foo(); mView.postInvalidate();
} }
Finally here is foo:
public void foo() { mBackground = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.temp_canvas); Log.w(this.getClass().getName(), "background set");
}
The first log is always written when the button is pressed, but the second log is not because foo never fires. What is the deal here? Upon request, the full view
public class MyView extends View { Drawable mBackground; Context mContext;
public MyView (Context context) { super(context); mContext = context;
mBackground = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.leftarrow1);
} public MyView (Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs); mContext = context;
mBackground = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.leftarrow1);
} public void foo() { mBackground = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.temp_canvas);
Log.w(this.getClass().getName(), "background set"); }
@Override public void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL); // draw a solid blue circle
paint.setColor(Color.BLUE); canvas.drawCircle(20, 20, 15, paint);
// draw a test background mBackground.setBounds(0, 0, 300, 400);
mBackground.draw(canvas); }
}
Android :: Call Method In Main Activity From Custom View Class
Aug 8, 2010I am using the following method in a new application I'm developing. There is a main activity, which instantiates different classes that extends RelativeLayout and I'm using setContentView to switch between the different modules of the application. I wonder if this is a good approach or necessarily I have to use different activities to the several screens the app haves.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Is It Legal To Call Start Method Twice On Same Thread?
Aug 1, 2009The following code leads to "java.lang.IllegalThreadStateException: Thread already started." the second time it is run through on the program This happens the second time updateUI.start() is called. I've stepped through it multiple times and the thread is called and completely runs to completion before hitting updateUI.start(). Calling updateUI.run() avoids the error but causes the thread to run in the UI thread (the calling thread, as mentioned in other posts on SO), which is not what I want. Can a Thread be started only once? If so than what do I do if I want to run the thread again? This particular thread is doing some calculation in the background, if I don't do it in the thread than it's done in the UI thread and the user has an unreasonably long wait.

Android : Updating Chat Data UI From Different Activity Method?
May 4, 2010I have a tab widget where one of the tabs is a chat-type feature. I want to update the chat data at an interval (variable depending on whether the chat tab is active or not).
The best approach seemed to be using an AsyncTask in my main TabActivity class, as that would avoid any issues of the chat activity being destroyed while in the background, while an AsyncTask was running. I wanted to ensure that the Activity isn't destroyed and recreated, thus causing my AsyncTask to be unable to modify the actual active Activity's data.
However, now that my AsyncTask is in the TabActivity activity, I don't have a direct way to call my Chat's ListAdapter notifyDataSetChanged() from my onPostExecute() method anymore. Is there a way to get a reference to a given Tab's current Activity from the TabHost/TabActivity?
Or, alternatively, can I assume my chat activity will never be destroyed as a child activity of the TabActivity activity (well, never destroyed while the TabActivity is active at least), and then just put the AsyncTask in the Chat Activity?

I know others have done this but I can't seem to find any resources that illustrates how.
