I've recently upgraded the Android SDK to the latest version, and I'm trying to re-build the ApiDemos project. I've imported it properly.
The problem is
1. the .aidl files aren't being processed at all by Eclipse during the pre-processing stage.
2. R.java isn't re-generated at all by eclipse
Using Eclipse, Helios release.

I have problems with the following: I want to create to applications. One with a Android service and one with a Activity that will use functions on the Service. Before I splitted this in to applications I got everything working in one application. I can call functions (that are definned in the aidl - file) on the service without problems.
Now the problems coms. I splitted the application into two parts, a Service application and Gui application. The bindins to the service (in the gui application) works and I see that the service is getting created. Then in the onServiceConnected function of the ServiceConnection class I created the following:
mService = IMyService.Stub.asInterface(service);
And this gives me the following exception:
03-16 13:53:05.549: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(881): java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: MyPackage.IMyService$Stub
It looks like he can't find the Stub class in IMyService. But the Stub is part of the java file generated out of the aidl-file. Why I get this exception or how I can resolve this?
I've been working on an app for a couple months now. I just downloaded the sdk and installed the newest plugin. Unfortunately my app broke after this finished. I have tried setting the build target to 1.1 and 1.5, still no luck. I believe the problem is stemming from the .aidl files causing other classes to break. The error in the aidl files says cannot find import for my Song class, which has worked up until now. Any ideas? Let me know if posting code or errors will help, as of now I'm all out of ideas.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have created some aidl files for IPC in my Android project.
They compile and run file however in the generated .java files I am getting warnings of un-used imports as follows:
The import android.os.Binder is never used EngineInterface.java/gen/com//phone/engine line 10 Java Problem
Now I presume that they are there for a reason and since the generated file is not supposed to be modified that adding a suppress warning is not a good idea?
So how do I get rid of the warnings? I know they can be left and it doesn't affect the running of the project but I would like a clean as possible project so if its at all possible to remove this errors I would like to know how to do it.
This is my aidl file.

I am trying to using remote service in android.can anybody tell how and where to create aidl file in eclipse in android?
View 1 Replies View RelatedFor some unknown reason when I now try to create a new Android project in Eclipse (Ganymede running on Windows) it fails to link to the android.jar in the SDK (1.0_r1). This has never happened before, and all my existing projects continue to resolve Android components just fine.
Error: "Cannot create linked resource '/.org.eclipse.jdt.core.external.folders/.link0'. The parent resource is not accessible."
Dianne mentioned we can use "@*android:type/name" to reference resource added to framework-res.apk at "what's the best way for OEM to organize it's own resources?"(http://groups.google.com/group/android- framework/browse_thread/thread/e9974bd5a42af10a/1f7055086f5489a7).
And I did see it is used in android source and looks like it is used to refer to internal resource not public, am I right?
I wonder whether it is possible to refer to internal resource without errors in Eclipse. I tried but adt reports error.
I followed the tutorial here but when I create the project in Eclipse, i get an error "invalid resource directory name. Resource: "drawable-hdpi" path "/HelloAndroid/res" type "Android AAPT Problem"

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I make a new android project and I go to res/values/string.xml I get a screen to add android resources instead of a XML document. I keeps getting the error about : java.lang.NullPointerException.
Is there a way to just alter a XML file (like suggested in tutorials)?
Does android resource files for values and layouts have any way to import other xml files. This is a good approach for products, where there is a core module and many sub modules. The Submodule may also use some of the core defined key value pairs etc. Also, in case with a module, if the view is very complex.. better to manage them as different xml's. Are there any other approach to handle this.. by way R inheritance etc.. I suppose only one R supported per application.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to access a raw resource file by having its filename in a String? According Google's documentation, I need to use "Resources.openRawResource (R.raw.myDataFile)". This requires that I have the file name at compile time, but what if I have 20 or so files and want to do something to a specific file by passing its file name at runtime?
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy application will have some customisation for each company that uses it. Up until now, I have been loading images and strings from resource files. The idea is that the default resources will be distributed with the application and company specific resources will be loaded from our server after they click on a link from an email to launch the initialisation intent. Does anyone know how to replace resource files? I would really like to keep using resource files to avoid rewriting a lot of code/XML. I would distribute the application from our own server, rather than through the app store, so that we could have one version per company, but unfortunately this will give quite nasty security warnings that would concern our customers.
View 3 Replies View RelatedCan I have sub-folders to hold my drawable resources. For example can I store an image in, say, 'res/drawable/content/images/myimage.jpg' and then find that resource via a call to:
id = context.getResources().getIdentifier("com.mycompany.myprog:drawable/ content/images/myimage", null, null);
I have tried this and it doesn't seem to be working (but I may have something wrong). Is it supposed to work or do all the resources need to be in the root drawable folder? Also, are jpeg files supported and drawable resources?
When I have listview and I use some listadapter provided by android API then when you touch item in list it flashes with orange colour and then action is processed. If I have my own adapter this flash doesn't happen. Instead text color changes to black for a moment (and becomes unreadable). Is there something special I need to do to enable it? My adapter is actually based on cursoradapter and all it does is that it adds onClick handlers to some of controls used in list item layout and sets values of some widgets which are not handled by simplecursoradapter by default.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI would like to intercept outgoing calls and pass them to a VOIP application. I see that the Google Voice application has a feature for displaying a question before each call is actually initiated. It provides the user with the choice:
Initiate call via Google Voice
Initiate call via standard call
I would like a way to do something similar with my application (so that not all calls have to be routed through it). At the moment, I can intercept CALL events via a BroadcastReceiver, however, these are not allowed to open dialogs (thus making it possible to display the choice).
What is the best way of achieving this goal?
I looked through another thread that was asking the the same question but i didnt seem to find any answers or solutions, so i decided to revisit the problem has anyone noticed that some applications just seem to start themselves up and run in the background? I have the advanced task killer, and this morning i did a reboot of the phone (coming from blackberry storm1, rebooting is just who i am, i do it every 2-3 weeks) and i would expect some applications to start themselves up on a system startup, no problems there. So i open the ATK and i kill any apps that i know i will not be using anytime soon, which is most of them. anywho, after that i literally dont use my phone at all... i lock it and it has been in my pocket since i left the house. yet, just now, i open up my task killer just to check what is running, and my music, my voice dialer, my calender, and a bunch of other applications are just running... whats up with that?
I have read others saying that the apps running in the background dont take up much memory... i call bs... before i kill the excess apps, i notice my free memory (at top of ATK) is around 30mb. after i kill the apps, im back up to 55mb+ so, please, has anyone found a solution to this problem?
I'm porting to Android. My existing project has a ton of resource files that I'm porting into my Android project. I have them all in /res/raw/, and I would like to access those resources in my native library with functions such as fopen() and such. Can this be done, or do I have to go through JNI for this as well? I would really prefer not to, for ease of porting and possible speed and memory reasons.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm mostly using Eclipse for Android development these days, and have developed good muscle memory for Ctrl-F11 to run my app. Problem is, if I happen to be editing an XML file (like manifest or layout) when I hit that key combination, Eclipse does something that I find inscrutable... It attempts to "run" my XML file, creating an erroneous output file (called something like layout.out.xml) that I then have to delete, adding a useless XML launch configuration to my history, and generally being a pain in my butt.
It's no big deal, but it is an ongoing annoyance. Does anyone know how to disable "run" for XML in Eclipse? I've tried to find a config item for it, but Eclipse's options are such a rabbit hole that I haven't had any luck there myself.
I've noticed that then I use "clean" from Eclipse project menu on my project I receive following error

I am currently developing a dictionary application with voice database. I would like to know about the current Android limitation on the file size. I am using a self-provided sqlite database ( > 50mb ) . I tested that once the built .apk size exceeds ~30mb the app will not be installed onto the simulator (INSTALL_FAILED_ INSUFFICIENT _STORAGE). Could anyone confirm me that if up until now there is no way to embed such large size files in a single apk ( Aimed to sell at Google Market without requiring user to download datafile afterwards). Also, is there a limitation of 1,048,576 bytes for a single file in the assets folder ?

View 1 Replies View Relatedi have a severe problem with eclipse, where i need to compile a somewhat larger class. by "larger" i mean, the class has about 5000 lines of code... problem is that on saving this project, eclipse takes several seconds (30-40) to "build the workspace". to be exact, it says "50%" and keeps saying that for 30-40 seconds. then, it breaks with the following error:
[console]:

[problems window]:
Conversion to Dalvik format failed: Unable to execute dex: null this error is reproducible and keeps popping up until i comment out several thousands LOC, so that the file still has this 5k LOC, but ~2000 of them are comments. THEN it works...
i know that 5000 LOC are no really good programming style, but i need to do it this way for now ... (i have to write this much records to a sqlite database and since sqlite doesnt feature multiple sql-queries in one rawQuery-command i have to execute a single rawQuery() for each and every data record i need to push into the db.... - until i write a file reader to read this data from a file (that needs verification etc)), i'm stuck with this solution...)
I have an interesting problem. I pull down an android project from cvs, which works fine. Once Eclipse builds the project, my .java files are removed. XML files, pngs, everything else is fine. I seem to be left with just the package tree, but no source files. Any thoughts?
