I am trying to retrieve a XML document from web service. I am passing a soap object with a token implementing the OAuth concept and retrieving the data. But the data does not turn out to be in XML format. It contains a curly braces in the place of start tag and semicolons when it ends. Is there any way to retrieve the document in XML format as such?

I am having trouble passing a List type from a remote service to the UI activity. Here is a modified version of RemoteService example from the APIDemo. (only included where its modified)
PROBLEM: The call back function (for List) is called successfully, but the List returned is empty...
It works fine when the service does not run in a remote process. (w/o android:process=":remote" in the manifest file)
Why is this happening...?
Also, when I tried Map type, it didn't even successfully generate a IRemoteServiceCallback.java file.... it tries to do new Map().... and complains that its an abstract class.. (FYI, List instantiates by new ArrayList())
1. in IRemoteServiceCallback.java oneway interface IRemoteServiceCallback { /*** Called when the service has a new value for you. */void valueChanged(int value); void valueChangedList(out List values); void valueString(String value);}

Q1. I created the Array Favorite. What I think what I created is an Array with two set of value call Detail | Value. example Detail="Yasmin",Value="8". Is this correct?
Q2. I have assign the Favorite Array to the mFavlist listview. During the OnItemClick I can return the label "Yasmin" by the position of the listview. What I would like to do is return the value of "8". What would be the best way to do this?

I created the following method for retrieving stored settings from the database:
public String getEntry(long rowIndex){
String value = "";
Cursor c = db.query(DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {KEY_NAME, VALUE}, KEY_NAME + "=" + rowIndex, null, null, null, null);
int columnIndex = c.getColumnIndex(VALUE);
int rowsCount = c.getCount();
if(rowsCount > 0){
String value = c.getString(columnIndex);
}
return value;
}
On debugging I can see cursor c contains two columns and one row but when it comes to line
String value = c.getString(columnIndex);
it throws the CursorIndexOutOfBoundsException although columnIndex = 1 which should point to a valid entry. Does anyone know what could be wrong here?
I have a settings menu that pops up and in it is a listpreference type menu. It is associated with a settings.xml file where there are 'array-strings' within it. It all works good but I don't know how to retrieve the users preference. As an example, let's say the user picks a color (red, green, or blue). The list that I've made within my 'array-strings' contain the text red, green, and blue. Within my code, I would like to do something if the user has choosen red, something else if they choose blue, etc., etc. Would I use a 'case' statement or an 'if' statement? And most importantly, how would I retrieve the users preference - the key? (am I checking for a boolean?)

I want to call a USSD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USSD) command and have the reply returned as a String. I can make the device automatically dial the USSD - like so
// String encodedHash = Uri.encode("#"); String ussd = "*" + encodedHash + "105" + encodedHash; startActivityForResult(new Intent("android.intent.action.CALL", Uri.parse("tel:" + ussd)), 1); //
This calls the USSD and the result is displayed in an alert menu generated by the OS dialer. There's no way that I can see to intercept the USSD reply, prevent the dialer displaying it, and then use the result as a String. Essentially, all I really want to do is (pseudo code) // String ussdReply = call("*#105#"); // I've tried creating an "onActivityResult" but it never receives anything from the startActivityForResult. So, does anyone know how I can use the reply within an application?
I have an AppWidget which provides a summary of some data stored and controlled by my main Application. (In a similar way to a Calendar AppWidget showing the next event from the main Calendar application). I want to know the best practice for retrieving the data to update my widget. I have followed the example, and I have extended AppWidgetProvider and have a working widget, onto which I can update. I would expect to read the data from my main application and then update it via my AppWidgetProvider's onUpdate() routine.
Now, is the best practice here for my separate main application to provide the data via a ContentProvider? I assume so, as my Appwidget is not part of the same application. Is it possible to access a ContentProvider inside my onUpdate() routine? Before writing my main application content provider I started to test out retrieving some available data like Contacts information, and showing say a contact name in my widget, to show I can extract data from an existing ContentProvider. When accessing the Contacts contentprovider, the examples talk about:
1) Activity.managedQuery(), but my AppWidget is not an activity. 2) ContentResolver.query(), but I can't work out how to get a valid ContentResolver so I can access the Contacts. getContentResolver() does not appear to be defined for AppWidgetProviders. Am I approaching this the correct way?

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat are the best practices parsing XML from an HTTP resource in Android? I've been using HttpURLConnection to retrieve an InputStream, wrapping it with a BufferedInputStream, and then using SAX to parse the buffered stream. For the most part it works, though I do receive error reports of SocketTimeoutException: The operation timed out or general parsing error. I believe it's due to the InputStream. Would using HttpClient instead of HttpURLConnection help? If yes, why? Should the stream be output to a file, having the file parsed instead of the stream?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm getting a "SAXParseException: Unexpected end of document" error when trying to parse an xml document on android. The document in question is from the google weather api, but it seems to throw the same error regardless of the xml file in question (as long as the xml is valid) so I suspect it's a problem with my approach, rather than the xml. This is being done as a learning exercise, so I've probably (hopefully) overlooked something obvious. I've run the xml through an online validator, and it comes back as being well formed. (Can't tell me if it's valid as I don't have a DTD, but I dont think I need the DTD to parse the xml). This is the code that I'm using to try and parse the file:
private void refreshForecast() URL url;
try { url = new URL( "http://192.168.1.66:8000/google4.xml");
URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
HttpURLConnection httpConnection = (HttpURLConnection)connection;
int responseCode = httpConnection.getResponseCode();
if (responseCode == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
InputStream in = httpConnection.getInputStream();
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
// falls over here parsing the xml.Document dom = db.parse(in);
} } catch (ManyExceptions e) { ....
} A cutdown version of the xml that produces the error is:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xml_api_reply version="1">
<weather>
<forecast_information>
<city>Hamilton</city>
</forecast_information>

In the interest of brevity, I've not included the original xml, but it's just the standard weather xml from googles feed. I've also tried a few completely different xml files, (including the sample from http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-android/) and they all give the same error. (They also all validate as well formed when I run them through an online xml validator). This makes me think that it's not a problem with the xml, but rather with how I'm trying to feed it into the parser.
