Android :: Simple Program - Class Extends Activity At Startup

Oct 1, 2010

I have a simple activity program in android. Basically the class just extends Activity.
But when I start it I get a ClassCastException in the constructor of my class. I don't even have a constructor defined, so it must be in the constructor of the superclass which is Activity. Unfortunately the debugger doesn't give any detailed information on what class it is trying to cast. Here is the stacktrace:

Thread [<1> main] (Suspended (exception RuntimeException))
ActivityThread$PackageInfo.makeApplication(boolean, Instrumentation) line: 649
ActivityThread.handleBindApplication(ActivityThread$AppBindData) line: 4232
ActivityThread.access$3000(ActivityThread, ActivityThread$AppBindData) line: 125
ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(Message) line: 2071
ActivityThread$H(Handler).dispatchMessage(Message) line: 99
Looper.loop() line: 123
ActivityThread.main(String[]) line: 4627
Method.invokeNative(Object, Object[], Class, Class[], Class, int, boolean) line: not available [native method]
Method.invoke(Object, Object...) line: 521
ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run() line: 868
ZygoteInit.main(String[]) line: 626
NativeStart.main(String[]) line: not available [native method]

And when I look into this runtimeexception I get:

detailMessage "Unable to instantiate application com.test.MyApp: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.test.MyApp" (id=830067694464)
The only code is:
package com.test;
import android.app.Activity;
public class MyApp extends Activity {
}

Android :: Speed Up Launch Of Activity Containing Mapview And Extends MapviewActivity?

Nov 12, 2010

I have an app which contains an activity which is a MapviewActivity and is mostly a mapview.
However I have noticed that the start up time of the activity is really slow and causes a lag from the moment the button is pressed to go in to the map activity. I feel this creates a bad user experience and would like to avoid this.
I have already set the background of the map activity to @null as suggested by one of the UI improvement articles on googles developer page. Which I fell does not do the trick.

Is there a way to improve this? I would not like the main home screen to get stuck on the launch of the activity, even a transfer to the map activity and then loading the mapview would be better.

Android :: Communicating Between Receiver Class And An Activity Class

Jul 14, 2010

I'm just getting into Android development, and I have a question about communicating between a receiver class and an activity class. I'm very new to JAVA and Android so I hope I don't sound too stupid. I'm developing an application where I intercept an SMS message and then based on various elements of that SMS I might delete it once it's been saved to the inbox. I have a receiver class that intercepts the txt message, and I am also able to delete messages from my inbox with code in the activity class using a button at the moment. The problem I have is communicating between the receiver class and the activity class where the code to delete a message resides. I tried putting that code directly into the receiver class but as I'm sure most of you already know the BroadcastReceiver class doesn't seem to support what I need to delete messages. I've been searching for an answer to this for a while, but haven't been able to find anything. Honestly I'm not sure I know enough about JAVA and Android to even recognize a solution if I saw it.

public String getStr(){
return str;

public void setStr(String s){
str = s;

Android :: Create Simple Paint Program With Zoom?

Right now I'm just extending the View class and using the "on Draw()" method. Do I have to use a Drawable to be able to add zooming functionality? I'm not really understanding the differences between the two. If I am way off base then please point me to a good tutorial on paint/zooming.

Android :: Possible To Start Surface View With Game Thread Anytime / Other Than At Startup Of Program?

Aug 7, 2010

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 think it's the way I'm using(abusing) the language.

Android :: Use HTTP Post Method Or Simple Java Socket Program

Mar 20, 2010

Could someone please suggest me a good/efficient way to communicate with the server. I could think of two options 1) Use http post methods to send data to a php script at the server which would later call the google api's written in another java program (jar)or use php to use google api's (if its possible) to find nearby restaurants and send the list back to client. 2) Use simple java socket programming. The server has a jar file that supports multi threading and it does the job of finding restaurants and sending the list.

Android : Need Information Concerning A Potential Program Development Class

Oct 27, 2010

A local college has decided it wants to start a program in mobile development. They explored Windows 7 mobile and iPhone and it just isn't what they are looking for. Android won the golden ticket, thanks to myself.

They just threw a catch in there for me =). They want me to find the blount of the information!

Would anyone happen to know who I can contact concerning some sort of contract on leasing of development phones for this class? The phones do not necessarily need a service, just a way to test development. The instructors and department leaders have said they would need around 20 devices for a small class. They don't imagine it would be larger than that for a new class.

So can someone point me in the right direction? I know everyone wants to breed more Android developers =P...something to feed our addictions.

Android : Program Crashes When I Call A Class From Another Java File

Oct 26, 2010

I am new at android development and java programming, but I have decided to program a drinking game app in android. This app basically simulates a deck a cards, a player clicks a button to draw a card then based on the card thats drawn the player plays a drinking game (ie takes 1 drink, takes 2 drinks ect).

I have the main program in one java file, and the code that shuffles the card deck and puts the card sequence in an array in other java file. My problem is that whenever a class from the other java file (classicMode.java) is called from the main program (fubar.java), my android program crashes and gives the error : "The application Drinking Game - FUBAR (process com.games.dg) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again". Code...

Android :: Soft Keyboard On Activity Startup

Jan 12, 2010

I am struggling trying to have the soft keyboard appear in a search screen and from the looks of numerous pleas on various forums, I am not the only one. I have tried many variants, culling from the byzantine attempts of those others.

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService
(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); imm.showSoftInput (query, 0);
(for 0, substitute InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED or InputMethodManager.SHOW_IMPLICIT.)

The problem seems to be that showSoftInput doesn't work from onCreate. This is a very common need. Surely there is a reasonable solution to this problem, or is it botched here?

Android :: How To Scroll To Bottom On Activity Startup?

Jul 22, 2010

I am displaying some data in a ScrollView. On activity startup (method onCreate) I fill the ScrollView with data and want to scroll to the bottom. I tried to use:
getScrollView().fullScroll(ScrollView.FOCUS_DOWN).
This works when I make it as an action on button click but it doesn't work in the onCreate method. Is there any way how to scroll the ScrollView to the bottom on activity startup? That means the view is already scrolled to the bottom when first time displayed.

How can you specify which item gets the default focus on Activity startup? Using requestFocus programmatically does not work. On setContextView the first focusable item listed in the XML is given the default focus. When using RelativeLayout, the first item listed is not always the desired item or necessarily on top.
