Android :: Utility In Droid SDK / Java To Replace Parts Of A String Using Placeholders?
Sep 4, 2010It would work something like this
someUtility.replace ("Hello, my name is {1}. What is your {2}?", "Mark", "name");
It would work something like this
someUtility.replace ("Hello, my name is {1}. What is your {2}?", "Mark", "name");
I want the text "REPLACEME" to be replaced with my StringBuffer symbols. When I print symbols, it is a valid string. When I print my query, it still has the text REPLACEME instead of symbols. Why?

View 3 Replies View RelatedIn Android, capturing date from datepicker and storing as string in sqlite. Sorting by date doesn't work because they're strings (unless I'm doing it wrong.I've googled this issue for ~5 days, and it looks like there should be a way to capture the date from the date picker, convert it to a Long, store it in sqlite as a Long, select and sort on the Long date value, then convert the Long back to a "mm/dd/yyyy" string for display. I've tried various combinations of parse statements, Date, FormatDate, etc. with no luck at all.On activity start, get today's date and display it in button which calls the datepicker.Capture new date from datepicker (if one is entered), save it as a long to sqlite.On opening an activity showing a listview of records, select from sqlite with orderby on date (Long), convert Long to "mm/dd/yyyy" string for display in ListView.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy ANDROID app presents a listview, from a database cursor and XML, that needs to replace the values in a column with various words based on the integer value contained in the cursor. For example, if the value is -1, replace it with the word "Invalid", but if the value is >= 0 then just display the value.
I was under the impression this could magically be done via XML.
Here are some HTML ASCII Codes:

I have a string that may look like "All in a hard day 's work"
What is the best way to replace that ascii code, with an apostrophe?
<string name="title_new">Yeni Kamera</string>
I have this string in string.xml,
public void SetTitle(String _title) {
title.setText(_title);
}
And title is a TextView.. I want to take string for _title, how can I do?
Programming in Android, most of the text values are expected in CharSequence.
Why is that ? What is the benefit and what are the main impacts of using CharSequence over String ?
What are the main differences, and what issues are expected, while using them, and converting from one to another ?

Assuming the code above is OK, I need to apply xpath to get values from cat: "/animal/mammal/feline/cat"
I look at the dev doc here: http://developer.android.com/reference/javax/xml/xpath/XPath.html and also look online, but I am not sure where to start!
I have tried to use the following code:

Evaluate the expression against the XML Document to get the result.
But I get "Cannot be resolved". Eclipse doesn't seem to be able to fix this import. I tried manually entering: javax.xml.xpath.XPath
But this did not work. Does anyone know any good source code that I can utilise, for Android platform? 1.5

Does anybody know of a work around for the android xml file string array inability to process string <item>'s that are not legal java variable names If not, is this not a major bug? Why does an item in an array need to generate a reference id anyway? Isn't this redundant?
View 2 Replies View RelatedGiven that scripting is not natively supported in Android and wrapping libraries like javax.script.ScriptEngine into your app will make it too large, is it possible to send a javascript string to an invisible WebView and have it evaluate the string and return you the results (another string)? I want to go this route because I want to save all my scripts to disk so my app can remain small. edit I need Java code to evaluate javascript strings not the other way around. addJavascriptInterface() doesn't help.

More specifically, the rubber/plastic edge that runs around the keyboard the the edge of the keyboard itself (the piece without the letters). I got a tiny bit of super glue on that rubber/plastic (I'm sure it's plastic but it feels kind of rubbery) edge. I'm debating about trying to remove it (it's almost unnoticeable, except to me, meaning I'll notice it constantly ).I know acetone will remove super glue. I've heard that rubbing alcohol can too, which is why I would try it first (it's less caustic than acetone, less chance of damaging the plastic). Is this a bad idea? Also, if rubbing alcohol works, would the alcohol that's on alcohol wipes (like the screen cleaner wipes) work as well? They're both isopropyl so I don't see why it wouldn't (the concentrations may be different, that's the only thing I can think of). Never applied either of these two things to plastic so I'm not sure what will happen.

I'm making an app which has a flow roughly as below: User starts on the main screen with an empty list, hits menu, and goes to "add item." (Activity A) User is given a new activity which allows them to specify search criteria, then hits "go" to do a search. (Activity B) User gets a list of results, and can click on one of them to view more details. (Activity C) User sees details of item, and can use a menu item to save it to their list in Activity A. (Activity D) Right now, I am having each Activity call each other Activity for results, and then it is passing the result all the way back up the stack as it returns to Activity A. Is there a way to jump this, since all I want is for a result in Activity D to get to Activity A directly? Note that a user should still be able to navigate backwards (using the back button) through each activity, but if they explicitly save the item in Activity D, I want it to jump straight to Activity A.
