Android :: Regarding AbsoluteLayout Being Deprecated In SDK

Apr 29, 2009

I have just realised that AbsoluteLayout has been deprecated in the latest sdk, however I have designed my apps based on AbsoluteLayout and it is very difficult for me to remove them and change it to a different layout. Can someone help me as to how I should proceed? Absolute layout was really helpful in positioning the elements to be accurate. One could always had different layout definitions for different screen sizes, and based on the current width and height the required layout can be set. Removing of AbsoluteLayout is creating a lot of frustration to me as I have already designed most of the things using it. Somebody please help me out.

Android :: Using Deprecated AbsoluteLayout Class

Feb 17, 2010

The AbsoluteLayout class is deprecated but still can write it in code and it works. Will there be any problems if I use this class? Will the application work correctly after I deploy it on a phone?

Android :: AbsoluteLayout Deprecated & Drag And Drop

I noticed that AbsoluteLayout is deprecated in the latest SDK. AbsoluteLayout is an important piece to implementing drag and drop. If it disappears in a later release, what will be the solution to implement drag and drop?

Android :: Unable To Determine Signal Strength On Droid - 2.0 - OnSignalStrengthsChanged Deprecated

Nov 17, 2009

The typical method to obtain signal strength has been to extend the PhoneStateListener class and override the onSignalStrengthsChanged method. Anytime the signal strength changes the system will call this method passing in the new ASU.

Since this method is now deprecated as of Android 2.0, how are we suppose to go about obtaining the signal strength? I tried using the method above on Droid (CDMA) and the ASU passed in is always -1.

There are also no details in the SDK as to why this was removed or what we are supposed to do now. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/PhoneStateLi...

Android :: Is It Ever OK To Use AbsoluteLayout?

Dec 21, 2009

I understand the problems with assigning a fixed position to UI components, but I would like to use AbsoluteLayout in a way such that the position of the components are chosen dynamically, calculated based on the screen size.Here is why I am thinking this may be easiest:I want to display a nXm grid of imageViews on the screen (n,m chosen by the user) with 0 padding betweeen the image Views.With absoluteLayout, I could easily choose the size of the imageViews and in a way that maximizes the amount of the screen that is used.The reason that using relativeLayout or LineraLayouts may not work for this is because when a user touches an image in this grid, I would like it to "pulse" (quickly scale larger than back to its normal size).If I scale an imageView using realtive or linear layout,it would resize the adjacent imageViews (since the padding is 0), which I don't want.

I would prefer permitting temporary overlapping of the imageViews.This is currently the approach I have taken, except instead of changing the position of imageViews, I am just drawing bitmaps to the canvas at the locations I calculated.I can't use the animation framework, however, on bitmaps that I draw to a canvas.Is this an acceptable use for AbsoluteLayout, or is there a better way to achieve what I want to do here?

Android :: What Is Alternative To AbsoluteLayout?

Sep 10, 2010

I see posts saying that FrameLayout is the alternative, and that I should use margins to position things (this strikes me as wildly counter intuitive, but ok... if it works, I'll take it). However, I can't get it to work, so, I'm looking for assistance. I'm aware of the fact that this may mean different things on different devices. I'm ok with that. I simply need a way to, programatically, and at run time, place an item at a SPECIFIC location. I don't want to rely on gravity (or the laws of thermodynamics). I just want to specify a location and have the element appear there :)

Android :: Programmatically Control Size Of Child View In AbsoluteLayout

Feb 18, 2009

The documentation at http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/widget/AbsoluteLayout.html says:
onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) //Called from layout when this view should assign a size and position to each of its children. So I overrode it like this:

@Override
protected void onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) {
Log.d("test", "In MainLayout.onLayout");
int childCount = getChildCount();
for (int childIndex = 0; childIndex < childCount; childIndex++) {
getChildAt(childIndex).setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(100, 100, 100, 100));
}
super.onLayout(changed, l, t, r, b);
}

I am declaring the child elements (buttons) in the XML for the layout. This correctly sets the position of the buttons but not the size. The size is being taken from what is defined in the XML (it's a required attribute).

Android :: Android -- Support 1.6 - Support For Deprecated Code In 1.5

Jul 3, 2010

I'm trying to build a app that uses the SmsMessage class but there are two versions depending on the API level of the device:

android.telephony.gsm.SmsMessage (deprecated for 1.6 and above)

android.telephony.SmsMessage (the new class for 1.6 and up)

I want to target 1.5 and yet have the newer class (android.telephony.SmsMessage) run on devices with 1.6 or higher. How do I do this?

I have already tired this: http://devtcg.blogspot.com/2009/12/gracefully-supporting-multiple-android.html but I couldn't get it to work (the author doesn't mention how he/she handles the different imports, the exact api level settings etc.)

Android :: Android 1.6 - Android - View - WindowManager$BadTokenException - Unable To Add Window - Token Null Is Not For An Application

Apr 14, 2010

I'm trying to open a dialog window, but every time I try to open it it throws this exception:

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

I'm creating it by calling showDialog with the display's id. The onCreateDialog handler logs fine and I can step through it without an issue, but I've attached it since it seems like I'm missing something:

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

Is there something missing from this? Some questions have talked about having this problem when creating a dialog from onCreate, which happen because the activity isn't created yet, but this is coming from a call from a menu object, and the appContext variable seems like it is correctly populated in the debugger.

Android :: Android WebView Not Loading A JavaScript File But Android Browser Loads It Fine

Jun 3, 2010

I'm writing an application which connects to a back office site. The backoffice site contains a whole slew of JavaScript functions, at least 100 times the average site. Unfortunately it does not load them, and causes much of the functionality to not work properly. So I am running a test. I put a page out on my server which loads the FireBugLite javascript text. Its a lot of javascript and perfect to test and see if the Android WebView will load it. The WebView loads nothing, but the browser loads the Firebug Icon. What on earth would make the difference, why can it run in the browser and not in my WebView? Any suggestions.
More background information, in order to get the stinking backoffice application available on a Droid (or any other platform except windows) I needed to trick the bakcoffice application to believe what's accessing the website is Internet Explorer. I do this by modifying the WebView User Agent.Also for this application I've slimmed my landing page, so I could give you the source to offer me aid. package ksc.myKMB;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.app.Dialog;
import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuInflater;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.Window;
import android.webkit.WebChromeClient;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class myKMB extends Activity {
I already have JavaScript on the web browser on, the problem is the web view is acting to different from the web browser.

Android :: Android - Add Menu Item To Android's Built-in Apps

Aug 17, 2009

I'd like to add a menu option to the Android camera app. Is this possible to do using the current SDK? I know I need to add an intent-filter tag in my activity. But I don't know what I should put in the mime type. I want to be able to process the live camera previews if the user selects the menu option. So what do I put into the type tag of the intent-filter? Also I suppose I won't be using ALTERNATIVE or SELECTED-ALTERNATIVE for the category as I want to deal with the whole intent?
