View 2 RepliesIn Android I get the version of the SDK easily (Build.VERSION.SDK) but I need to use LabeledIntent only if the platform is newer than 1.6 (>Build.VERSION_CODES.DONUT) I suppose that Reflection is necessary (I have read this link but it is not clear for a class or to me). This is the code but it gives me an exception because in my Android 1.6, the compiler verifies if the package exists even if the condition is not applied:
Intent theIntent=....;
if(Integer.parseInt(Build.VERSION.SDK) > Build.VERSION_CODES.DONUT)
{
try{
Intent intentChooser = Intent.createChooser(intent,"Choose between these programs");
Parcelable[] parcelable = new Parcelable[1];
parcelable[0] = new android.content.pm.LabeledIntent(theIntent, "", "Texto plano", 0);
intentChooser.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS, parcelable);
activity.startActivity(intentChooser);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
activity.startActivity(theIntent);
}
} else
{
activity.startActivity(intentMedicamento);
}
I wrote an app that, among other things, renders feed articles using WebView. Now I get error reports that seem to originate in WebView:
-- NewsRob Version: 1.7.0/170 -- Android Version: sdk=2, release=1.1, inc=128600 -- Thread State: RUNNABLE -- Stacktrace: java.lang.NullPointerException at android.webkit.CacheManager$1.run(CacheManager.java:391) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:935)
I've got another report with the same content, but a different incremental version of the sdk (126986). Probably one from the US and one from the UK. So now I would love to know why the code blows up and if there is anything I can do about it. And with the source files and line numbers I felt in good shape to so. If only I could match them to the public code repositories ;-(............................

View 8 Replies View RelatedIs there a simple line of code that would allow only loading the code if the OS version meets the requirements? Lets say I have my target OS as 2.2 but the min sdk is 3 for android 1.5 so even if i have some code in my project that isn't compatable with 1.5 it will still compile since the target OS is 2.2. Anyway, I want to ad a feature that requires code that's not in the 1.5 SDK and will cause a crash if it's loaded on a 1.5 phone. Is there a simple thing like this that I can do? So i dont have to make the entire app not available to 1.5 users?
if (Android OS == >2.1){
//Insert code here that requires 2.1 and up}
else{
//insert code that would appear is OS is <2.1}
My old development process allowed me to make any change in the java code and use eclipse's Run button to install the updated package to the emulator.
Now I get [2009-12-15 11:51:55 - Scoopful]Application already deployed. No need to reinstall. even though the code has changed.
I realize the manifest version Code is used to determine if the app has changed and it works fine if I bump up that number. This did not used to be necessary and it slows down development when I have to enter AndroidManifest and make a change with every deploy to the emulator. Is there a way around this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have a paid app in the market place, we would like to release a demo of the paid app. I was hoping we could just recompile w/ the same package name, but apparently that does not work. I have tried manually changing package name etc, but it is a chore, and it seems that several things that automatically happen in eclipse cause more harm than good when renaming the package name. Which brings me to my next question. If having a new package name is the only way to accomplish this. Is there an easy way to fork the paid app, where keeping the changes synchronized is easier? Some kind of Source Control?

I was going to use some sort of film protector, such as Zagg invisible shield and a Flip Case. But the only flip case I can find for the Galaxy S looks horrid, and I am not sure on the texture of Zagg Invisible Shields.I have also considered silicone gel cases, but I am having trouble finding one that is nice, and pouches in combo with a screen protector.What would you use and if I did buy a screen protector, which brand should it be, I want one that will protect but with minimum difference to the feel or colour of the screen.
