Android :: Storing Array In Preferences
Jul 14, 2010I know only primitives can be stored in the android preferences, but do arrays count? Can I store an array of, say, Strings or booleans in an android preference?

Android :: Storing An Array Of Objects
Mar 31, 2010I have an array of 5 Timer objects in my app, some of wich have been scheduled with a TimerTask. I need to be able to store and load these 5 Timers; is there a way to save Objects? Maybe storing the address of the array would be enough? How could I do that?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Preferences - How To Load The Default Values When User Hasnt Used Preferences-screen
Apr 22, 2010I am using a PreferenceActivity to let the user set some values. I am feeding it the xml file with the defined preferences.
I have set all the android:defaultValue="" for them.
When I start my application, I need the preferences, or if they are not set yet manually, I want the default values:
CODE:.................
However, when android:defaultValue="true" I still get false. So, it looks like the defaultValues set in the XML are not used anywhere but when initializing the preferences-screen.
I don't want to hardcode the default values in the getBoolean() method. So, is there a way get the default-values with only defining these in 1 place?
Android : Save Preferences Other Than Shared Preferences?
Mar 19, 2010My application is used on multiple platforms so it saves it preferences to a file (rather than to the standard Android SharedPreferences).
Is there any easy of reusing the PreferenceActivity to save preferences to a file or is it a case of creating a whole new activity to do the job? If the latter is the case is there a layout I can use that will make the activity look like the normal preferences screen? PreferenceActivity uses com.android.internal.R.layout.preference_list_content but this doesn't appear to be available to apps for reuse.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Converting Byte Rgb_565 Array Into Argb Or Rgb Array
Jan 12, 2010I have Picture data in byte rgb_565 array, and I want convert it in a productive way into argb array. Right now I have found only one (little slow) way to do this: Bitmap mPhotoPicture = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(imageData, 0 , imageData.length);
where imageData is my byte[] array in rgb_565, and then: int pixels[] = new int[CameraView.PICTURE_HEIGHT*CameraView.PICTURE_WIDTH]; mPhotoPicture.getPixels(pixels, 0,PICTURE_WIDTH, 0, 0, PICTURE_WIDTH, PICTURE_HEIGHT);
The point is I believe creating a Bitmap object is exacting and not necessary in this case. Is there any other faster way to convert rgb_565 array into argb array? I need this because making image processing on rgb_565 array seems to be a little annoying. Or maybe it is not so hard?
Android :: Converting Short Array To Byte Array
Feb 16, 2010I am trying to make an application that would be able to send the user's voice over the network using RTP. I am using the ported stack from hsc (JLIBRTP) and I am able to record user's voice in a saperate thread. the problem is that jlibrtp uses has a class named RTPSession that is responsible for the session and has the sendData method that takes a byte [] as argument and the AudioFormat class I am using to record user's voice is in AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT wich is short. I have tried using 8bit audioformat but I get an illigalargument exception in my htc magic and in my emulator. So is there any way I can convert the short [] to byte [] ? would that be acceptable in order of voice quality?, is the above error a known bug for htc magic or the platform doesn't support 8bit audio format?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Navigating An Array - String Array
Oct 12, 2010I'm new to android developing but right now I'm working on an application that displays Random Facts. Since I don't want it to be in a random order, I would like to have them in a list. I would like to order through them one by one and show them using TextView.
Resources res = getResources();
myString = res.getStringArray(R.array.FactsArray);
That's what I have so far. If I'm right, that just establishes the array so I can be able to use it later. What I had before was rgenerator which chose a random string from the array and displayed it when I clicked a button.
CODE:................
But Like I said, I would like to just order through them one by one when a button is clicked.

Android :: How To Deal With Storing Bookmarks
Oct 13, 2009I am essentially using a listview but am looking at providing a bookmark functionality. I am thinking that I should store the item attributes in a file when bookmarked and retrieve when required to populate a bookmark listview.
I was wondering if there is a de facto standard used in achieving this or do I follow just the "writing into a file" and "reading from a file" when necessary style?
Android :: Utility For Storing A Static Map?
Feb 19, 2010I've got a common use-case wherein a user selects one item out of many (say, on a spinner or autocomplete list), then enters the data. For example, let's say the user selects a country. Ultimately, the data I want is the country code, not the country name; but the users will want to select based on name, not code. To put it another way, user's will select "United States", but I ultimately want that to translate into "US".
There are a lot of countries. Is there an easy way to setup a mapping in Android to hash from the name to the code? I've thought of a few solutions, none of them are quite satisfactory in my mind:
A database containing country/code, which I can query on. Setting up all countries as strings in strings.xml, then retrieving the resource by name. Creating a huge Map in code and using that. (This is the least satisfactory answer).

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Storing Object Into SQLlite Database
Nov 16, 2010I would like to store an object into a SQLlite database. I am looking for how to best do it in order to ensure that if I need to updata/change this object in the future that users of the new and old object layout will be minimally impacted. In other words I want to ensure that making changes to the object will have minimum affect on clients that do not update their software on the old database format.
I want to also ensure an easy update from the old record style to the new format. I was thinking that I could add an element in the SQL row to identify the object type with a unique name, and to identify the object version number. That way I could read the row and use the object number to control the deserializer to use the correct version of the class.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Storing A Bitmap Into A ContentProvider From A BroadcastReciever
Aug 17, 2010I'm working on an app that, upon instillation of certain apps will send a message to them to register with a content provider. It all works fine, the strings are stored, but I can't get the byte[] blob (a bitmap .png file) to convert properly from within onRecieve() in the broadcastreciever.
CODE:.................
I hijack the context so that I can get a hold on the image from the getAppIcon() call (You extend this class which is an abstract class extending BroadcastReceiver) i.e.
CODE:......
But my understanding of the context is limited and I think this is what is causing it to be stored incorrectly.
I've also tried getting the bitmap from the resources when onRecieve() is called and that doesn't work either.
