Android :: PreferenceScreen - Intent - Element Throws Exception

Sep 17, 2010

I've got a probleme with an exception, but I don't know why I get this exception.

The project is about implementing an AbstractAccountAuthenticator with an AbstractThreadedSyncAdapter to sync certain data on a server with a content provider.

I made everything and both adding accounts and syncing is running without any problems.

Now I've tried to add a Preference-Screen just like suggested in the android reference (search for AbstractAccountAuthenticator, it is explained there) via xml like this:

autenticator.xml:

CODE:..........

The Preference-Screen-xml looks like this:

CODE:.....................

The screen is promted how it should be, but and that is the problem: When I click on the PreferenceScreen with the intent it leads to a crash of the system (both in the emulator and my HTC-Desire).

Logcat says:

CODE:..............

Here the part of the manifest, where the activity is defined:

CODE:.......

The whole test-code (it is my project on the essentials to find the problem) is to find at googlecode (http://code.google.com/p/ cleanproject/source/browse/) (Eclipse-Project)

Android :: ProgressDialog In AsyncTask Throws An Exception

Jun 25, 2010

I'm trying to make a simple ProgressDialog appear while my AsyncTask is fetching data. In my onPreExecute() method I have this: pd = ProgressDialog.show(c, "Loading...", "Please wait");

c is the context passed into the constructor of my AsyncTask from this.getApplicationContext(). Unfortunately, I keep getting an exception with this message: Unable to add window -- Token null is not for an application

What am I doing wrong?

Using this instead of this.getApplicationContext() has revealed another problem. When I call ProgressDialog.show(..., a ProgressDialog is displayed, but not until after the AsyncTask has completed. In other words, the data loads and then the dialog is displayed. If I include pd.dismiss() in my onPostExecute() then I never even see the dialog (presumable because it is closed before it ever gets opened).

It turns out that fetch.get() was hogging the UI thread and not letting the ProgressDialog display.

Android :: Calling NotifyDataSetChanged() Throws Exception

Oct 7, 2010

I have a ListView that I'm binding to an adapter. The adapter is a protected member of my main class. I have a listener thread that receives data and updates the source list for my adapter. When I call the adapter's notifyDataSetChanged() method, an exception is thrown:

Runtime Exception: PhoneLayoutInflater(LayoutInflater).inflate(int, ViewGroup, boolean) line: 322

I've read that the notifyDataSetChanged() method has to be called on the UI thread, and I'm doing that. In fact, just to be sure, I even update the ListView's data source on the UI thread. All I do in my listener thread is update a protected member that houses the data. Here's an example of what I'm doing (note that I don't have the part of the code that calls the AsyncTask, but it's fired from a listener):

CODE:............

Does anyone have any pointers or ideas as to why I'm getting this exception? Any help is much appreciated.

Here are the layout files, as requested:

main.xml:

row.xml:

Android :: How To Handle Throws Clause In Java Exception Handling

Sep 4, 2010

I have class A in which I have a method openfileConnec().

It was written like the below:

CODE:...............

Now I come to class B where I will call this method like the below:

CODE:.............

I was asked a question in an interview as follows:

Why does the method have a throws Exception in its declaration? Is it that on of the methods called in the implementation throws the base class exception? Also If we get a exception during calling the method (fileConnect( )) control goes to catch block. After executing catch where should the control go, what should be sent to base case?

Android :: Activity - Sometimes - Throws Wrong State Class Exception When Being Resumed After Kill

Nov 24, 2009

I'm testing how my app behaves when killed by the OS due to low memory conditions. I always have three activities on the stack, like: A B C (then C launches maps or some other heavy process)

when my app is killed, and I return to it, C starts itself up again ok. When I hit the back button to go to B, I [sometimes] get an exception thrown which I can't trace. Output is below. I don't know where to go from here. I've only seen one other post mentioning this exception, but it was related to a reproducable error when rotating the device. This only happens sometimes.

Android :: Using Custom Defaults For PreferenceScreen

Dec 8, 2009

I am currently trying to implement a PreferenceActivity for my application that uses custom default values for its preferences instead of the defaults declared in the corresponding preference XML as the defaults are supposed to change dynamically based on certain conditions.However, when I modify the defaults via the Android API after loading the preferences through addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preferences); it already seems to be too late and the individual defaults set via Preference.setDefaultValue do not seem to be taken into consideration when rendering the UI.As I would like to avoid re-inventing the wheel I hope there is some possibility to achieve this using the standard Android preference API. Is there any way to trigger a re-evaluation of the values (and default values) associated with a PreferenceScreen hierarchy? I did not yet try whether creating the PreferenceScreen via APIs instead of loading from XML would help, so that could be an option.

Android :: IconPreferenceScreen That Extends PreferenceScreen

Jul 28, 2010

I would like to have a Preferences activity that has icons like the system settings has had since Eclair. It uses a special Preference called IconPreferenceScreen.I can copy that into my project without problem, but I'd like the behavior of the PreferenceScreen instead of just the Preference Class. I could like to click on it to show its children Preferences. I thought it would be a easy to change to make IconPreferenceScreen extend PreferenceScreen instead of Preference, but PreferenceScreen is Final.Why on earth would google make PreferenceScreen a final class? Is there anyway to achieve what I would like to do, short of dividing up my Preference into several other Preferences that all receive intents (That's how the system settings works.)

Android :: Custom Xml Attributes For PreferenceScreen

Sep 26, 2010

I use custom xml attributes for preferences. The preferences are inflated from xml.I managed to create and read custom xml attributes for EditTextPreference, ListPreference and CheckBoxPreference by creating custom classes which inherit from the respective preference class.My problem is that I can't do this for the PreferenceScreen class, as it is a final class. So my question is: Is there any way I can read the custom attributes of a PreferenceScreen?
