Android :: Include XML Argument In Some Other Layout
Aug 28, 2009
I have some layout xml that looks like this:
== file1.xml == <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout ...> ... ... </LinearLayout>
I want to include that in some other layout xml, so I do this --
== file2.xml == <include layout="@layout/file1.xml"/>
The question I have is how to pass arguments (and refer to them) from file2.xml to file1.xml. So, for example:
== file1.xml == <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout ...>
<TextView android:text="@text" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/> ... </LinearLayout>
== file2.xml == <include layout="@layout/file1.xml" text="abc"/>

I'm reworking some of my layouts to use Relative layout. I have some building blocks which I'd like to reuse. The problem I seems to have with the include of the layout and position other layouts out of this include. Example:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height=wrap_content"

Is there a way to include one resource in another (for example a header design in multiple activities' layouts). I know I can add it at run time, can it be done in the XML?

I'm building a jar so that other developers can use the view I create in their Android applications. I'm wondering if it is possible to use a layout resource in my jar so I can build the layout of my view or if I need to build up my view programmatically. Similarly, can I include image resources in my jar file?

I am unable to override attributes when using <include> in my Android layout files. When I searched for bugs, I found Declined Issue 2863: "include tag is broken (overriding layout params never works)"
Since Romain indicates this works in the test suites and his examples, I must be doing something wrong.
My project is organized like this:
CODE:..............
The buttons.xml contains something like this:
CODE:.............
And the portrait and landscape receipt.xml files look something like:

I've created an Activity subclass called CustomTitlebarActivity. Essentially, each main activity in my app will have a custom titlebar with many common features such as a Home button, a title, a search button, etc. In my current implementation, I am still explicitly using an include statement in the layout XML for each CustomTitlebarActivity: <include layout="@layout/titlebar" />
It seems natural that I should be able to do this within CustomTitlebarActivity. I have two questions: What code can replace this include tag, and where should I put the code? (My first instinct would be to put it in CustomTitlebarActivity's setContentView method.)
On a related note, I would appreciate insight into better ways to reuse android UI code (even if, per se, the titlebars need to vary slightly between activities.)

I want to decompose my UI into several XML Layouts. The first one would be the main layout, and the other ones would be the content layouts.
I would like to be able to set which content_layout should be included dynamically during runtime, so I don't want to set a "layout="@+layout/content_layout" in my XML file.
Here are my layouts:
main_layout.xml:
CODE:................
content_layout.xml:
CODE:.......
content_layout2.xml:
CODE:..........................

I have a complex dialog-layout that has to be customized for small screens to decrease its height on such devices. This can easily be achieved by decreasing the height of several single Buttons and Textfields in the layout, each by a small amount. Of course much of the layout still stays the same, so I figured I could use the <include/>-tag. This was the idea:
/res/layout/dialog_layout.xml ==> includes "@layout/include_button_layout"
/res/layout/include_button_layout.xml /res/layout-small/include_button_layout.xml
I figured that android would choose which button-layout to include at runtime. I couldn't get it to run, so I guess I was wrong. And if so, can anyone confirm whether this is the way to do it?
/res/layout/dialog_layout.xml ==> includes "@layout/include_above_buttons"
==> includes "@layout/include_button_layout_default"
==> includes "@layout/include_below_buttons"
/res/layout/include_above_buttons.xml
/res/layout/include_below_buttons.xml
/res/layout/include_button_layout_default.xml
/res/layout/include_button_layout_small.xml
/res/layout-small/dialog_layout.xml
==> includes "@layout/include_above_buttons"
==> includes "@layout/include_button_layout_small"
==> includes "@layout/include_below_buttons"

I have in many of my screens that re mostly constructed of LinearLayouts a FrameLayout that should take up the bottom leftovers of the screen (using layout_height="0dp" layout_weight="1") inside it there's a FrameLayout with gradients background and in it's middle with some padding lies a button with some text, naturally i need the text and onClicked properties to me different from screen to screen. I considered using <include > tag for the above compound in my layouts, but as far as i can see i can't really change (at least not in xml) the button text and callback, is that really so?

I want to create a grid of images with text right below the images.
I created in a xml file a image_text item which basically is a linearlayout with and imageview and a textview right below.
I created a tablelayout and I want to add my custom image_text.xml to the table row. But I dont know how to reference my xml file inside. If I use the include statament, how do I pass the image id and text to my item_text.xml? code...

I'm not sure if this is an Android question or just due to my being new to Java as well. I'd like to use the getString method to get strings from my resources (R.string.whatever). I see that this is a method of the Context class, and I can call it directly from within my main Activity class. But I also have some utility classes in their own class files and can't simply call this method from them. What seems to be required is for me to pass the context (the Activity object) into these other classes via their constructors. Then I can call the method e.g., mCtx.getString(). I guess my main question is whether there's another way to get the Context without having to pass it from class to class as an argument.

When I add the following line to my GLSurfaceView class I get an IllegalArgumentException from some random place. I don't know where the problem is because it doesn't give a stack trace. set EGLContext Client Version(2); What else do I need to do to get an OpenGL ES 2.0 application to work? I have tested this with a completely empty renderer class (and also put breakpoints on every callback, and none of them get hit, indicating that the error occurs before my renderer even gets involved). Does anyone have a complete working example of how to get started with Android OpenGL ES 2.0 development? [There is also a stackoverflow entry here -> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3026368/illegalargumentexception-w]

I use the following instrumentation testrunner command line to run JUnit tests on my project :
code:........
and it runs OK.
I am now trying to pass a property value argument to my instrumentation test runner, something equivalent to the eclipse vm argument -Dcom.myApplication.myProperty="String" The value ("String") of a property (com.myApplication.myProperty) must be defined in the command line. I tried to bend my command line to make this work, changing it for example into :
code:..............
but didn't manage to make it work correctly. Is there a way to make this work ?

Yes, I know you need a unique resource id when calling the version of these functions that requires a key, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to create a resource id that can be used in this way. A final variable in my class wont work and neither will a hard coded value. Both threw an IllegalArgumentException. So what gives, how do you use these methods?

Since API 7, PhoneStateListener has a function: void onSignalStrengthsChanged( SignalStrength signalStrength )
Question: how can I override this via reflection so that I can stay backwards compatible with earlier APIs that don't have the SignalStrength class ? If I make the argument an Object, the signature changes of course.

Native Start.main(Native Method) Since it comes from external beta users I dont know what they were doing when they got it. Nor do i know how to reproduce it. The stack trace does not list any of our code. Usually, this error means that there was an orientation change while a dialog was open, thereby invalidating the reference to the dialog when android recreates it. All of my activities already uses Android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation" in order to prevent them from doing this. We still get the error. Has anyone else seen this before? What could be the problem?

While doing normal day-to-day Android development, is it safe to assume that hook methods called by the system will not pass in invalid references (ex.: null), or should I always be double-checking what arguments get passed in?For example, can the method onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem) ever have a null MenuItem reference passed into it?The reason I ask is because I was working on the Notepad 1 tutorial,I started wondering if I should be testing if item is null before making a getItemId() method call on it, or just trust the system to not ever pass me a null?I don't want to make my code slower by doing null checks when I shouldn't be worried about that happening, etc.

While developing for Android, I am unable to open more than one main.xml file in an Eclipse editor at a time.Each time I open one, it simply replaces the editor (tab) of the first main.xml with the new one, instead of opening a new tab - even if the contents of the existing tab were unsaved.Even stranger, I can open multiple main.xml files from different projects with no problems.This only happens when they're within the same project.

Is it possible to build a GridView object in XML with 3 columns and 4 rows of Image buttons? It doesn't seem to have similar containment relationship like LinearLayout or RelativeLayout viewgroups.
I want to do this entirely in an xml layout file. When I put ImageButton xml tags inside a GridView xml body, The layout panel in eclipse is throwing an exception: UnsupportedOperationException:addView(View, LayoutParams) is not supported in AdapterView.
