I have a parent activity (as ACTIVITY GROUP) and some child activity of this parent activity (as ACTIVITY).
I am just calling child1 now i want to move from child1 to child2 and just want to finish() child1.
But when i am calling finish() it is also finishing the parent activity.
I have a main screen with buttons to launch other subactivities. I have to press back button each time to go back to the main screen of my application. How do I finish a child activity and automatically return from the caller?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an Android activity with an ImageButton. I would like to execute some logic when the button is clicked and show a different image for the pressed state, but also receive the touch event on the activity.
By default only the button receives the touch event. If I set the clickable attribute of the button to false then only the activity receives the touch event.
What's the best way to implement the touch event in the activity and the click in the button?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI wounder if there is some possible to know from which parent Iam coming from in the child so I can do different stuff depending on who the parent is of the activity.This is how Iam going over to the child. But I don't know how to handle this in the child to check who is the parent. The above code is used on one of the parents,, is there somehow I can use "EQ_CODE_SELECT_LOCATION"? Also I wounder how is possible to send data to a child activity?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy child activity X is called from Parent activity P through startActivity(intent). I want to close P when X called its finish() method. I override a method finishFromChild(Activity child) in P and called finish() in it. But this functions (finishFromChild(Activity child)) is not being called after X finish() Is it a known bug or I am missing some thing? I googled and also searched the groups but no help.
An alternative could be... using StartActivityForResult() and a "fake" onActivityResult, where I can finish the parent activity, but this way is quite bad, i think...
I prefer the first one, if it would work....
I have a parent activity, and a child activity that extends the parent activity. When the parent starts the child activity,
Which onCreate gets executed first? The child's or parent's?
There is a particular variable I am setting in the Child activity's onCreate method, and right now, it looks like it takes a while to get to the Child activity's onCreate, and so the methods in the Parent are reporting an empty variable. Whereas when I make the Parent sleep for a while, it reports the correct variable.
CODE:............
So, basically, even after the Parent starts the Child, it still returns "Parent Value", but when I have the thread sleep, it return "Child Value".
I have next problem, I have got parent activity and few sub- activities, if app goes to the background by pressed HOME button for long time, all children will be killed, and my app restart from parent activity.
For example: A1 - parent, A2,A3,A4 - sub-activities. A1-->A2-- >A3(top), from A3 I go to the background (HOME). wait 30-40 min and
I want to open new child activity in the parent LinearLayout. Just similar like Tabs.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy application calls Runtime.exec() to launch an executable in a separate process at start up time. I would like this child process to get killed when parent activity exits. Now I can use onDestroy() to handle regular cases, but not "Force quit", shutdowns from DDMS, or kill from the console since those don't run onDestroy(). The addShutdownHandler() does not seem to be invoked in these cases either. Is there any other hook or signal handler that informs my activity that it's about to get terminated? As an alternative is there a way to have the system automatically kill the child process when the parent die?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have faced with issue about startActivityForResult() and onActivityResult(). If child activity started by the startActivityForResult() exit by unexpected exception the onActivityResult() is not called and I have no any ideas how can I handle this to get application working in a fail-safe manner ?
When my code runs child activity with startActivityForResult() it awaits until onActivityResult() will be invoked to get working further, but onActivityResult() is not calling and my code is "hang- up" (logically).
So the question is how can I handle all possible ways the child activity is finished (normally and by unexpected exception) to get fail-safe code ?
I have check the documentation for this issue but have found nothing relating issue.
I have an application, which (for the sake of simplicity) has two types of activities - Overview and DetailView. The Overview activity shows a list of steps and allows the user to start a DetailView activity corresponding to the step chosen.
In the DetailView activity, the user can start another Overview, which shows different steps than the ones in the parent of the current DetailView.
In the Overview, DetailView is started by using startActivityForResult (). In the DetailView, when the user decides to start a second Overview, I call setResult () and finish () and then start the new Overview. In this scenario, onActivityResult () and finishFromChild () do not fire. Instead, they fire when the parent finishes (?).
Code from Overview:

Code from DetailView:

Official android dev website says that:You can implement your tab content in one of two ways: use the tabs to swap Views within the same Activity,.....http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html
I just wanna use tabs to swap views, no more than one activity. is there any sample code?
Im trying to implement an activity that uses ExpandableListView and I have gotten so far but now I have found some strange behavior.
My activity is meant to record food intake as specified by the user. they have a choice of menus (breakfast, lunch and dinner - the outer group) which expand to show their contents.
when a user clicks on an inner menu item a dialog appears asking them for the qty. once they enter a qty and dismiss the dialog the text on the menu item changes to reflect the quantity of that item that has been consumed
The above image shows the list in a closed state.
Below is the list after I have opened the lunch menu and clicked on 'Potato Chips' and indicating a Quantity of 1. As you can see the 'Potato' itemtext has now been changed to reflect the Qty of 1.
The strange part happens now. if I click on 'Lunch' and close the list and then click on it again re-opening it, the 'Qty X 1' text has jumped to another item (Milk)
Each time I open and close the list it jumps back and forth between the two items. Also if I open up other items, such as breakfast, I find that they too have now gotten items with 'Qty X 1' even though I havent clicked them.
The bits of code that are relevant are as such:
The XML for a child element:
CODE:................
The code thats triggered on clicking a child element:
CODE:..................
The above code opens a dialog, accepts a value for quantity, appends the list element to reflect this, also saves to database and sets a textview with the selected item and quantity.
I'm working on my first Android app, and would appreciate any guidance to make sure I'm doing this the best way. Basically I want an Activity to list recipes. Eventually I'll have another Activity to display an individual recipe selected from the list, but I'm not worrying about that yet.
The list of recipes should show each recipe's title, description, rating, and date added. For each recipe in the list I'd like the title on the top left of the list entry, rating on the top right, description on the bottom left, and date added on the bottom right. I may want to add photo, icons representing properties of the recipe (e.g. vegetarian), etc. The makes me think that each item in the list should be a TableLayout.
With all that in mind, here's what I'm planning to write:
1. Write class RecipesDataAdapter extends BaseAdapter. Override the getView() method to return an instance of TableLayout. Populate each instance of TableLayout with two TableRows, the first row containing cells for title and rating, and the second row containing cells for description and date added. For now I'll just pass the Recipe instances to the adapter in an array.
2. Write class ListRecipesActivity that extends ListActivity. Override the onCreate() method to obtain instances of the Recipe class and call the setListAdapter() method with an instance of the RecipesDataAdapter class.
Notice that all this is done in code without any layout XML files. All the examples of Activities that I've seen use a layout XML file and call setContentView(R.layout.layout_name) but I'm not sure if I need to do that for this, or even how I would do that considering my main Activity is a list of non-trivial things (TableLayout).
I want to display the same options menu on all of my application's activities. I created a generic Activity that implements the menu, and all my further activies extend it. The problem: when I need to extend other specific activities, like ListActivity and MapActivity, I can't figure out how to extend the generic activity and add the List or Map behaviour to the new class. To deal with the issue I had to create three different generic activities, each extending Activity, ListActivity and MapActivity.I've tried creating an abstract activity but it doesn't work, I would need to extend two classes at the same time. I could try interfaces but since I can't implement methods, I would have to paste the menu implementation all over the second-level classes, right?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a ListActivity I display from a parent activity. When the user selects the desired item from the list it supposed to return to the parent activity. Only when I call finish, the app goes away (doesn't quit) and displays the Android Home page. If I debug, the application doesn't die, it just sits on an MessageQueue.Wait().
I have a break point right before the finish() call and one in the first line of the OnActivityResult. When I press continue from the first, I never see the second on in onActivityResult.
I have other child activities in my app that don't display this problem. However this is the only ListActivity I have that I am trying to return from. I do call finish from onListItemClick. I'm wondering if that is not allowed since that is responding to a view event. However if I don't do it here, how can I get back to the parent activity. Below is the code snippet of my finish method.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a simple ListView and on that ListView I have placed a number of custom defined Views. The CustomView has ImageView and two TextViews.
The CustomView also has a "stateful drawable" as background, so that the background image (a 9-patch) changes if you press the Row in the ListView. When pressing the Row, the background image changes to a Red-ish thing.
The problem is that when the background changes from the default greyish, all the Views in the CustomView (ImageView and TextViews) still have their greyish background and thus creates very ugly greay boxes on top of the now redish background.
What is the best way to solve that problem? I hoped that such things were handled automatically (as it is done in for example .NET), but I was wrong it seems.

Is there any way to query a root view of an activity for all of its child views even before the root view or its children have been inflated? I guess what I'm looking for is whether a view knows ahead of time what children it will have before it gets inflated, and can I get that list in some way. Bizarre I realize, but I think it will help me with some unconventional automation testing I'm working on. I haven't found anything in the API like this.
