i searched the net to find something about how to pass arguments to JSON c# .net web service, but i didn't find anything useful for me. I have to pass arguments like GUID or at least Username and Password. Is params.put("var", ""); the right thing? How do i pass multiple parameters like this, let's say username and password?

I have an application, which sets an alarm using AlarmManager, which starts another Activity when it goes off. The AlarmManager takes a PendingIntent and spawns a BroadcastReceiver class when the specified time comes. I'm wondering whether there is any way that I can pass arguments to this BroadcastReceiver through the Intent object which goes into PendingIntent?I'd like to be able to retrieve arg1 in the BroadcastReceiver's onReceive(Context, Intent) method. I figured that the local variable my_intent would be the second parameter passed on to onReceive by the PendingIntent, but apparently that's not quite right. Is it possible to pass parameters between an Activity and a BroadcastReceiver in this fashion (using Intent.putExtra()) or should I use a ContentProvider instead?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to tell Eclipse to use some extra arguments for aapt (-0 in specific)?I have been looking for past couple of hours and the best hack I came up with was to create a wrapper for the aapt tool to inject the argument to the command line. The trouble with this approach is that whenever I should lose that wrapper, then I'll be quietly introducing a bug into my application.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI think this should be easy to answer. I have an application that does some long calculations, and I would like to show a progress dialog while this is done. So far I have found that I could do this with threads/handlers, but didn't work, and then I found out about the AsyncTask.In my application I use maps with markers on it, and I have implemented the onTap function to call a method that I have defined. The method creates a dialog with Yes/No buttons, and I would like to call an AsyncTask if Yes is clicked. My question is how to pass an ArrayList to the AsyncTask (and work with it there), and how to get back a new ArrayList like a result from the AsyncTask?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm writing an application that starts with a loading activity. In the loading activity the app requests html from web and parses the html, then it sends the parsing result to the main activity. The main activity has several tabs, and contents of these tabs are based on the result of parsing.For example, the result of parsing is a list of strings ["apple", "banana", "orange"], and I need to pass this list to main activity, so that the main activity can create three tabs named after three fruits.I would like to know if there is any way to pass a list of strings among activities, BTW, is it the common way of do this?

View 9 Replies View RelatedHow to pass parameter value to web service in Android?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've read the android AIDL documentation and have a general idea of how RPC works between an Activity and a Service. However, for my application it seems overboard to implement such features: basically, I want to pass a Service a nice handler so its thread can pass data to my Activity. Currently I'm getting around this by using a static public member (a hack) but I would prefer just passing a Handler object in the Service's starting Intent. However since a Handler isn't serialize-able , I haven't found a way to pass it to the service without a simple static member hack. Any insight? Or, am I just going to have to suck it up and do a formal RPC to the service?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I'm getting really confused on how to do this whole thing and I was hoping someone could break it down for me a little bit.I have a service that should always be running, and at certain times it needs to alert the user that a task is to be completed(probably through a notification bar icon). When the user accepts the task, the service needs to look into the local database, construct some non primitive objects, and give them to the activity that it just started.I have looked all over and gotten very confused as to a proper approach so I have a few questions to help me wrap my head around it.If an activity creates a local SQLite database can the service and activities of that application access that same database later?Does the service and activity need to be in the same or separate packages? I would think no but for some reason I remember seeing something about this elsewhere.
How would I do the data transmission from the service to the activity? I was thinking a content provider but it seems like there should be an easier way for the service to just hand off the data. Similar to an Intent but for non primitives.
I've just recently started out with Android development, and have progressed to the point where I have written a very basic Hello World Jersey RESTful web service, and successfully called it from within my Android App.What I want to do now though, is send a new user record (just name and password for now) to a web service in JSON format.I can create my JSON in the Android app just fine, but I don't know how to get it into the HTTP Request in such a way that the corresponding web service that @Consumes JSON can get at it.
1) Create Android App User object
2) Turn that into JSON
3) Put it on the HTTP request
4) Call the web service
5) Web service retrieve JSON from request
6) Parse the JSON into server side User object and deal with as I see fit(Don't worry people, I'll be fine with this bit,
7) Profit! ;)

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm very new to java and am working on my first Android app. I am using the webview demo as a template. I am trying to generate a random integer between 1 and 12 and then call a certain javascript function based on the result. Here's what I have:
int number = 1 + (int)(Math.random() * ((12 - 1) + 1));
number = (int) Math.floor(number);
String nextQuote = "javascript:wave" + number + "()";
mWebView.loadUrl(nextQuote);
So mWebView.loadUrl(nextQuote) will be the same as something like mWebView.loadUrl("javascript:wave1()") I just want to know if what I have here is correct and will work the way I think it will. The application isn't responding as expected and I suspect this bit of code is the culprit.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have read that in order to clear data stored in the Android emulator I should start the emulator with the "-wipe-data" arguments. However, I can't see how to specify startup arguments. I have read that it should be possible to specify these in the "Target" tab of the Debug Configurations dialog. However, if I open Debug Configurations from the Eclipse Run menu all I see in the Target tab are radio buttons for "Manual" or "Automatic" Deployment Target Selection Mode, buttons for "Refresh" and "Manager..." and drop-down boxes for "Network Speed" and "Network Latency" options. There are buttons for "Details..." and "Start..." but these are grey. I can't see anywhere where I can enter a "-wipe-data" option. The Run Configurations dialog seems to be identical.

Is there a way to pass an Array List of objects between activities? The myObject implements Parcelable and I'm able to successfully pass the objects around individually, but that means I need to have an exact amount of "myObjects" coded. I want this to dynamically grow/shrink by what the user does with the app. I have seen some posts on the web about doing:
Activity A
ArrayList<myObject> myObjArray = new ArrayList<myObject>();
Then when passing this into the intent I would use:
intent.putParcelableArrayListExtra("myObjArray", myObjArray);
Activity B
ArrayList<myObject> myObjArray = new ArrayList<myObject>();
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras(); myObjArray = extras.getParcelableArray("myObjArray");
However, the myObjArray always gets filled with "null". How can I achieve this?
I have an ArrayList<MyList> aList in an activity. I would like to send this data to another activty. Such that,
ArrayList<MyList> aList;
Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setClass(mainactivity.this, newActivity.class); intent.putExtra("MyList", aList ); startActivity(intent);
On the receiving activity,
Intent i = getIntent(); newList = (ArrayList<MyList>) i.getSerializableExtra("MyList");
But this gets me no where. ERROR! My intention is to share this List between activities.
I have searched and searched and I just can't get this code to work. I have a main.xml layout and a setting.xml. I have some values I would like the Settings.class to change in my main apps class.Three string to be exact. I have tried this simple test code in my main app class.
settings.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(), Settings.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, 0);}});
//Then a function
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent){
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
String value = extras.getString("myKey");
if(value!=null){
Log.d("hmmm",value);}}}
In my settings.class I have the following
returnHome.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra("myKey", "YEAH");
setResult(RESULT_OK, intent);
finish();}});
Back in main app class it is not getting logged. Like I said I have three string in the main class that I want settings class to change and send back.
I have an app which makes use of several layout-views. Every layout - view also got a class for it, which extend the Activity class. One class for example retrieves some database values whilst offering a search form to the user. Afterwards the user can select one of those values and he gets presented with another screen which gives similar options as the one selected. Anyways, I'd like for the first Activity to be able to send an array with data (Strings for example) to the second one. Right now I show an activity by using:
Intent i = new Intent(this, activitysName.class); startActivity(i);
I have no idea whilst using this construction how I can "initialize" the new object with the String array I want to pass to it. So how should this be achieved ? Should I be using something else instead of an Intent-Activity combination ?
I have four groups in a listview each with four url's I want to load in a webView. When the user select a url to goto I set a value like so;
if (position == 0) webb = webb +2;
{
Intent intent = new Intent(this, official.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
I then carryout the intent to move to the webView class where I have given each URL a value like so;
if (webb == 2) mWebView.loadUrl("http://yahoo.com");
if (webb == 3) mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.bbc.co.uk");
But the screen stays blank, if I state the value inside the official.class it works. How can I get this value to pass to another class based on the selection the user makes from the listview.
I have been trying to get "getExtra" to work but without success, I have a listview with 4 choices which launch a webpage within a webView class, when the user selects the option lets say option 3 I want to pass the value of 3 to the webView class so that it will load the correct webpage, at the moment I get no errors, but the app force closes when I select the option, could this be due to having to announce this in the manifest? can somebody help with where I am going wrong. This is my intent
public void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
if (position == 0) {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, official.class);
intent.putExtra("weburl", 3);
startActivity(intent);}
This is the official class:
public class official extends Activity {
int number = getIntent().getIntExtra("weburl", 0);
@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && mWebView.canGoBack()) {
mWebView.goBack();
return true;
} return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
