Android :: Is It Legal To Call Start Method Twice On Same Thread?
Aug 1, 2009
The 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.

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 have seen many call recording apps in the Market, but am yet to find one that announces something like "This call may be recorded" at the beginning of the call, for states where this is legally required.

Basically I'm calling the onDraw method like so...
code:...................
You see I'm drawing it on top of a Camera view and the information being drawn is subject to change. I have a listener setup which will update the variables being drawn at the appropriate time but I now want to "refresh" this draw in that listener.

I am wondering how does webview load a particular URL. Does it create a new thread or load the URL in the same thread i.e. UI thread? The reason I am asking this is I am facing some weird wakeup lock issue when I launch an Activity from current Activity (in current Activity's onCreate method) which creates a WebView in it's onCreate method and loads a URL using loadUrl method. So when I am done with this activity and go back to the Activity which launched this is restarted because wakeup lock time was expired.I googled it and found out that if onCreate method of an Activity takes too long then this type of issue might occur. Have any of you faced this kind of issue involving a WebView? Any kind of help would be really appreciated.
Here is sample code.Activity A:

I am developing an Android app and I am doing some heavy work (bringing data from an online web page and parsing it to store in database) in a service. Currently, it is taking about 20+ mins and for this time my UI is stuck. I was thinking of using a thread in service so my UI doesn't get stuck but it is giving error.

I've read several example programs and tutorials to try and solve my problem but they all seem to go the same way. I've used a couple Activities and xml documents to create a menu that loads when my game starts.When the user clicks the "Start The Game" button, it loads a new Activity that sets the view with my game thread and all of the game properties.I know this activity works because I've run it alone as its own project, but every way I've tried to start it after the Menu,I get a nullPointerException and it force closes.I read the SurfaceViewOverlay tutorial and attempted to use that implementation, but I'm using a SurfaceView, not a GLSurfaceView.I'm debating rewriting my entire program to use OpenGL but I figured I would see if anyone else knows what I'm doing wrong here.If you need the code snippets I can paste some here, but it's not really the specific code that's wrong.

I am trying to get a UI to present itself when an incoming SMS happens. When that happens, I would like to present a UI to the user.
I have a BroadcastReceiver class that listens to the SMS_RECEIVED event. I also have an Activity class that is capable of displaying the needed UI when the event happens.
The questions is: How do I start the activity from within the onReceive method of BroadcastReceiver?
I know others have done this but I can't seem to find any resources that illustrates how.

I have code in my activity's onCreate that sets an onItemClick listener. when it fires I try to show a ProgressDialog that will be up until a subsequent thread "Thread" does it's processing. Strangely to me, the progress dialog never shows until *after* the thread.run() processing is complete. Almost like it's blocking. Am I doing something wrong? this is true even if the run method of doCurrentLocation doesn't do anything.
CODE:.................

I have a main class activity that does the task of sending control to other activities on click of a button. I am also starting a thread in the main class. This thread basically sets up a connection with the server and is active throughout the lifetime of the application.I have two functions in the thread class, send and receive data from server.Therefore, when the other activities need to send/receive data from server, they use those particular functions.First of all please let me know if what I am trying to do is fine as per the architecture of the operating system. If its fine, when I try to run the code, the app crashes and i see a NullPointerException and a RuntimeException in the DDMS log.Could some one please help me out in this or suggest a better way to implement the concept.Also, please be assured that, the other functionality of the code works perfectly fine.

say for example I have this code in my activity:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Thread cThread = new Thread(new Runner());
cThread.start();
}
private NotifyMe(){
//do something here

public class TCPClient implements Runnable {
public void run(){

}
}
I have a thread on my activity that runs the Runner Class. Once the thread start, I would like to call the NotifyMe() function that is located at the activity. Is this possible?

You need a reference to the class that contains the method you want to call. To access the method homepage() inside the eSkyGuide from the class Weather, you need an instance of the eSkyGuide class inside the instance of the Weather class.

For Android, I have a custom view which I fill up with primitive shapes in the onDraw() method. Coming from a Processing background, I expected the draw method to be called automatically 30 times per second, but its clear that that's not how android views work. So how should I go about calling this method 30 times per second?
