I have an AIDL service that is intended to be used by both out-of- process remote users and in-process local users. As a result, my common interface methods will either be invoked on the UI thread or in a binder background thread. The logic between the two is not the same. How do I distinguish between these two cases?

We are supposed to make UI actions only from the main UI thread. But it is not clear to me if callbacks like LocationUpdateListener (and other callbacks from sensors) are already in the UI thread or they require special care to access the UI components.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am developing a app using android C2DM. sqlite3 is my back-end. Everything is just working fine but am struck with an performance issue regarding sqlite3. so my question is 'can i place the database code somewhere where it will be executed only once i.e The dvm(dalvik vertiual machine) should execute the code pertaining to the db only once; during the successive run the dvm should not go thru the (db)code because the db had been created.
More specifically, my app send msg to all the phones which has my app. so when an app at the client end receives a msg, the dvm should not execute this code : SQLiteDatabase db;
//use tat ref to open or create a table
db = openOrCreateDatabase( "/data/data/de.vogella.android.c2dm.simpleclient/app_database/file__0/0000000000000001.db", SQLiteDatabase.CREATE_IF_NECESSARY, null);
try
{
[code]....
Because everytime a msg comes this code ll be executed.
In Android , Native code is written as follows.
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_com_android_Test_show(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj) {
printf("THIS IS TEST");
}
For example, will this result in any performance gain:
-- public static final boolean DEV_MODE = false;
if(DEV_MODE){ // log stuff, compute debug values etc. }

View 2 Replies View RelatedI know how to use handlers to update UI elements such as progress bars toasts etc. The problem I am having is when the context goes away such as the user pressing the back button or the Activity finishing for some reason. This causes my application to crash often. I tried using
getApplicationContext()
(Thinking that this would be available throughout my entire application) but this did not work, ever - instead my application crashed! I put try catch blocks around all UI update code, this works but is it necessary? What is the bast way to handle this?

I am trying to update TextView in my Activity with text messages from DatagramServer ( see below) The problem I have is that "backgound UDP server receives plenty of traffic, but onProgessUpdate is ever executed only once so only the first of the messages appear in the TextView.
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
TextView txtStatus; // txtStatus initialized
new BackgroundAsyncTask().execute();
public class BackgroundAsyncTask extends
AsyncTask<Void, String, Void> {
public static final String SERVERIP = "127.0.0.1";
// 'Within' the emulator! public static final int SERVERPORT = 2222;
private DatagramSocket socket;
protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
try { InetAddress serverAddr = InetAddress.getByName(SERVERIP);
Log.d("UDP", "S: Waiting for connection...");
socket = new DatagramSocket(SERVERPORT, serverAddr);
while(true) { byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
DatagramPacket packet = new DatagramPacket(buf, buf.length);
Log.i("telemetry server", " waiting for packet");
socket.receive(packet);
Log.i("received", new Integer(packet.getLength()).toString());
Log.i("UDPServer received:", new String(packet.getData()));
publishProgress(new String(packet.getData()));
} } catch (Exception e) { Log.i("Dbg server", e.getMessage());
} // end of try Log.i("Dbg server", "Dbg server: Done.");
socket.close(); return null;
} @Override protected void onPostExecute(Void result) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
//it will never been shown in this exercise...
} @Override protected void onPreExecute() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
} @Override protected void onProgressUpdate(String... values) {
txtStatus.append(values[0] + " ");
} }
This is the class that calls my Service:
public class TicketList extends ListActivity {
private ArrayList<Tickets> alTickets = new ArrayList<Tickets>();

private TicketConnector localService;

Basically, my objective is:
Constantly post the latitude/longitude to my website every minute or so. Of course, I want to do this in another thread, so it doesn't mess up my UI thread. This AsyncTask is supposed to solve that but it's bringing up an error and I don't know why. What can you do to accomplish my objective? It's very simple...just scan location and post to web every minute, in the background. By the way, my onCreate method is like this. That's basically it.
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
new ExecuteLocations().execute();
setContentView(R.layout.main_list);
}
I'm implementing the onBackPressed() method in my activity. It's crucial to my app that I have this functionality. But, the control never enters this function. It enters onPause() instead, when I press the back button. But the problem is I can't have the same logic in onPause() because when I call another activity, the current activity calls onPause() and I don't want it to execute what should be in onBackPressed().
public void onBackPresed(){
Log.d(TAG,"inside onBackPressed()");
if(STATE == PREVIEW){
} }
I try to execute shell commands, this does work as it should. Even the result comes back (as is see on LogCat). The problem ist the last line of the result. Every time a readLine() on the last line occurs (which shouldn't occur, temp should be null), the app hangs forever and doesn't come back from the readLine call. Maybe you find the error. I tried readUTF and standart read(), all the same problem. And yes, the app got su-rights.
try {
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
DataOutputStream os = new DataOutputStream(process.getOutputStream());
DataInputStream osRes = new DataInputStream(process.getInputStream());
for (String single : commands) { os.writeBytes(single + " ");
os.flush(); String temp = new String();
while( (temp = osRes.readLine()) != null) { Log.v("NITRO", temp);
result2 += temp + " ";
} } os.writeBytes("exit");
os.flush(); process.waitFor();
} catch (IOException e) { Toast.makeText(Main.this, "Error", Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
} catch (InterruptedException e){ Toast.makeText(Main.this, "Error", Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
}
That is the StackTrace where it hangs when I stop debugger when hanging:

I have trouble with finding my SQLite Database.
As we can access the SQLite databases on a running emulator like below:

where does i find my database?
How can I implement a run() method of thread if I create a Thread Global?
I mean If I create a Thread Globally then can I implement its run() method {" public void run()"} anywhere in my Application?
In the run() method I have to write the code to perform some action.
IF I can do it then please can anyone show me briefly how to do it particularly.
I am writing an application in which i need to handle messages between the main thread(the deafult UI related thread) and the user created Gamethread.
The requirement is like this.
An activity(say "Activity_X") is setting the view by "setContentView(some "View_Y")". In "Activity_X" i have implemeted "onCreateOptionsMenu()" and "onOptionsItemSelected()" fucntions for creating menus & a switch case for action to be taken on selecting those menus.Menu has items like "resume/pause/zoom/" .
All action to be take on selecting these menus are implemented in "View_Y" in a separate Gamethread by extending "Thread" class.
So whenever a menu is selected in "Activity_X" i need to send a message to "View_Y". And on receiving this ,a particular action/method should be called in View_Y(GameThread).
How can i achieve this using Handlers?Is there any other way of doing this? Please do share with me some code snippets for these.
I have a separate thread running to get data from the internet. After that, I would like to update the ListView in the main thread by calling adapter.notifyDataSetChanged(). But it does not work. Any workaround for that?
