The Activity class has a setContentView() method. The PopupWindow Class has a getContentView() method but nothing else does. Is there another way to get the main content view for an activity?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a tab widget where one of the tabs is a chat-type feature. I want to update the chat data at an interval (variable depending on whether the chat tab is active or not).
The best approach seemed to be using an AsyncTask in my main TabActivity class, as that would avoid any issues of the chat activity being destroyed while in the background, while an AsyncTask was running. I wanted to ensure that the Activity isn't destroyed and recreated, thus causing my AsyncTask to be unable to modify the actual active Activity's data.
However, now that my AsyncTask is in the TabActivity activity, I don't have a direct way to call my Chat's ListAdapter notifyDataSetChanged() from my onPostExecute() method anymore. Is there a way to get a reference to a given Tab's current Activity from the TabHost/TabActivity?
Or, alternatively, can I assume my chat activity will never be destroyed as a child activity of the TabActivity activity (well, never destroyed while the TabActivity is active at least), and then just put the AsyncTask in the Chat Activity?

I have a BroadcastReceiver class that listens to the SMS_RECEIVED event. I also have an Activity class that is capable of displaying the needed UI when the event happens.
The questions is: How do I start the activity from within the onReceive method of BroadcastReceiver?
I know others have done this but I can't seem to find any resources that illustrates how.

I have an activity which overrides the onKeyDown method. The documentation states the following about onKeyDown: "Called when a key was pressed down and not handled by any of the views inside of the activity." The problem I have is that this method is being called even when the views inside the activity handle it. I have a button implementing a longPress listener. What I see on debugger when long clicking on the button with the center key is that first onKeyDown from the activity is called then the longPress listener from the button gets triggered. Even for Textviews, when long clicking on it with the center select, the activity onKeyDown gets triggered before the TextView processes the longclick (and shows the Input Method context menu).

Can anybody tell me what method of an activity executes when an application closes?. Like I have a main activity and if I press back button on my phone. The Application closes so I want to know what method executes at that time.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been searching a way to implement an intent so when a user clicks on a notification, an specific method from an activity is executed (or an specific behavior happens). Right now I'm thinking about using broadcast but I don't know if this is the best way to implement this functionality. How would you implement it?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an activity A which uses SharedPreferences to share data with a service S, which is called from within A.Now when I call the stopService() method from A, the onDestroy() method in S is not called immediately.I thought that all the activities and services under a single apk run in just one process. Why then does the jump to onDestroy() not take place immediately instead I can see the output from onDestroy() after the further code in the activity A is executed.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn my program I have a custom view object. Inside the view class is a method called foo. For some reason when I call foo from my activity, it doesn't fire. Here is the code:
XML of the custom view:
<com.company.application.MyView android:id="@+id/my_view" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
The activity code:
public class Main extends Activity { MyView mView;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main);
LayoutInflater li = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View v = li.inflate(R.layout.main, null); mView= (MyView) v.findViewById(R.id.my_view);
//A button to fire the method inside foo() Button switchLeft = (Button) findViewById(R.id.switch_left); switchLeft.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View v) { callTest(); } } );
} public void callTest() { Log.w(this.getClass().getName(), "clicked left arrow");
mView.foo(); mView.postInvalidate();
} }
Finally here is foo:
public void foo() { mBackground = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.temp_canvas); Log.w(this.getClass().getName(), "background set");
}
The first log is always written when the button is pressed, but the second log is not because foo never fires. What is the deal here? Upon request, the full view
public class MyView extends View { Drawable mBackground; Context mContext;
public MyView (Context context) { super(context); mContext = context;
mBackground = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.leftarrow1);
} public MyView (Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs); mContext = context;
mBackground = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.leftarrow1);
} public void foo() { mBackground = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.temp_canvas);
Log.w(this.getClass().getName(), "background set"); }
@Override public void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL); // draw a solid blue circle
paint.setColor(Color.BLUE); canvas.drawCircle(20, 20, 15, paint);
// draw a test background mBackground.setBounds(0, 0, 300, 400);
mBackground.draw(canvas); }
}
I am using the following method in a new application I'm developing. There is a main activity, which instantiates different classes that extends RelativeLayout and I'm using setContentView to switch between the different modules of the application. I wonder if this is a good approach or necessarily I have to use different activities to the several screens the app haves.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my android app I call the voice recognition in my onCreate method of my startup activity. I have made it a preference to start up with the voice control or not. However, the app takes about 5-7 seconds to load when voice recognition is on. When it is off, the app starts almost instantly. Below is sample code, I have added Free_Form, max_results 1, and a custom prompt to mine.Why would calling the normal android speech recognition take sooo long to load in my OnCreate method?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm confused why is my activity still lagging, I use remote service that has few methods and each has its own work like download stuff, process data, compare stuff, etc... It will run in background and update data at selected intervals and notify user of changes over notify system.
The reason why remote service, because I will eventually add a widget, and service needs to stay running even if android kills the activity, so I unbind it on each onPause().
But as far I understand that part doesn't cause my issue.
But back to my problem... so my is Activity still lagging when I run stuff in service and handler.post method.
here is the code...
Also I wanted to add progressDialog to be updated in updateLayer(...) through Activity is a listener to this service, but thats not working well. Whats the best way to update progressDialog? Ever listener, handler, intent, or what?

I m doing some task with following code,
I want to access inner class variable from outer class method.
class Outer extends Activity
{private Handler mHandler = new Handler();
StopTheThread()
{mHandler.removeCallbacks(mUpdateTimeTask);//
This is the what I want to do:
} class Inner
{ final Runnable mUpdateTask = new = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
//Some Code Goes Here
} };
InnerClassMethod()
{ mHandler.removeCallbacks(mUpdateTimeTask);//
This statement working fine here. Here mUpdateTask is inner class variable which is not accessible from outer class.
With this sample code, the activity is told to finish, but continues execution afterwards and displays the message. I'm trying to understand why this happens. The only fix I can think of is to place 'return' after finish.
public void someMethod() {
if( valueIsTrue) {
startActivity(new Intent(this, NewActivity.class));
CurrentActitivy.this.finish();
// return; // if uncommented, Toast doesn't show
}
Toast.maketext(this, "Some message", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();}
