I've seen this question asked many times but none of the answers really made sense in what I'm doing... I have an android game (see source at Google source control: http://code.google.com/p/bestcardgameever-android/source/browse/#svn/...) It's a card game, and I've used a method that redraws each hand every round - that might be wasteful but I couldn't think of a better way to do it. Code...
View 3 Replies View RelatedWith Oracle suing Google over Dalvik's patent infringements, I'm wanting to get off the Java bus I've been on for 10+ years. I really enjoy coding in Java, love the tools (eclipse, profilers, etc...), cross platform, garbage collection, etc. What is the best alternative out there? I'd like to build cool gui's, mobile apps, web apps, back-end integration, pretty much everything and anything. I don't really want to invest in learning 5 different languages for 5 different scenarios if possible. I'd love to be contributing to FOSS. Even if many things aren't there yet, I want to get on the train with a technology that is headed in the right direction. I supported Java out of the box with 1.0 implementations because it got me off of MS choke-hold. Now I want to get off the Java train for the same reason - Oracle! I looked briefly at Parrot VM. I've never felt too comfortable with Dynamic languages, but if they are really the way to go, I'll battle that early learning curve. Tried Ruby on Rails for a while, and it was okay, though I missed my Eclipse debugger, code completion, etc., so didn't last long. Trying out Groovy...but I want to distance myself from any litigation and really want to support freedom. I'd prefer not to program in C or C++, don't want to do memory management. So, in conclusion, what is a good next step for an old Java hand? What languages have seasoned Java professionals moved onto? Do I need to worry about things like Scala that are designed to run on the JVM? What does this lawsuit about Dalvik mean?

Hello, I am completely new to the JAVA language. I have Eclipse installed with Android tools. I have a heavy amount of experience in JASS, so I understand the whole scheme of game making with coding. Any suggestions on reading materials that will get me started? I have no clue where to start
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm very new to android having just bought a HTC Desire and am only just getting used to this whole applications business.
Anyway, I thought since I'm currently trying to learn Spanish that it'd be great if there was a nice application that could help.
So does anybody know of or have any personal experience using any language learning applications that they could recommend please?
Does anyone know of some alternative JVM language, however obscure it might be, which can compile to plain old java bytecode, without the need of a language runtime.I need this in order to try to develop android applications without startup or size penalty. Scala, Clojure and Groovy all require its own runtime library distributed with the application, so they are out of the scope of this question.The only one language which claims to satisfy this goal is Charles Nutter's Mirah, but I couldn't make it to work on windows.To clarify a bit, I know any language has to have runtime library. Obviously, what I am looking for is a language that has no additional runtime required besides JRE, or at least very limited one.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI know Java apps can be run in Android. But what I want to know is this: I have a perfectly normal Java app and I want to port it to an android platform. What changes would I need to do to my app in terms of GUI and other code to make it usable in Android? I know Android uses XML file to control the look and feel of its app. So would I need to change my GUI completely? I just want to know the general overview of how porting may be done. If anyone could point me to right resources, that would be great. Also, for your info I'm a newbie to developing android app.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn an Android app I have a utility class that I use to parse strings for 2 regEx's. I compile the 2 patterns in a static initializer so they only get compiled once, then activities can use the parsing methods statically.
This works fine except that the first time the class is accessed and loaded, and the static initializer compiles the pattern, the UI hangs for close to a MINUTE while it compiles the pattern! After the first time, it flies on all subsequent calls to parseString().
My regEx that I am using is rather large - 847 characters, but in a normal java webapp this is lightning fast. I am testing this so far only in the emulator with a 1.5 AVD.
Could this just be an emulator issue or is there some other reason that this pattern is taking so long to compile?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am trying to develop an app to supplement the built-in music player. I've used git to download the com.android.music package and looked around at its code. I can launch the music player by copying some of its code and launching activities with intents.
Now what I need to do is get a handle to its current view. In the MusicUtils.java file, I see a line that says
View nowPlayingView = a.findViewById(R.id.nowplaying);
I'd like to do the same thing. Only I don't have access to the R.java file, so I can't write e.g. R.id.nowplaying. How do I do this? How do I reference the music players R.java? I do know the R.java stuff is declared public so that shouldn't be a problem. Right?
Is it even possible? I saw this related question and am now wondering: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2437271/how-to-load-com-android-music-code-into-eclipse-and-compile

I oberved that: public Field[] getFields() Returns an array containing Field objects describing all fields which are defined.

I do an import of the full package name / java file, and if I do a <classname>.<method>, SOMETIMES I can get it to access - other times I get a lot of can't use a static in a non static bunch of talk. I'll admit I'm new to Java, so what do I need to do? Call a class instance first, then call my methods? I'm rather confused by this, as I want to put all of my 'functions' into a FunctionsList.java file, and all of my main Activity (UI) into a MyActivity.java file.
For example:
<MyActivity.java>
import com.example.FunctionsList;
private class MyActivity extends Activity {
FunctionsList.function();
}
9/10 times I get that static/non-static error. If I put all of my functions into MyActivity.java, I have zero problems!
I bought an HTC Magic today and, as I always did with other phones too, set the language to english. The problem is I happen to write a lot of messages (email and SMS) in italian too.Is there a way to set the completion language separately from the GUI language? Even better if during the editing of a message would be possible to switch the language, as possible with Nokia phones.Please note that in the subject I mentioned erroneusly T9 which has nothing to do with completion, as I now learned.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've had 4-5 apps so far do this to me, and every once in a while another app does the same - instead of displaying its proper name, like ChompSMS or wpToGo, the name would switch to the Java version, such as com.p1.chompsms or com.roundhill.androidWP.wpAndroid.
The name change occurs globally - in the app list, widget names, even the displayed name when I start the app. The only place where the names stay OK is the Market.
These changes don't happen after an update - just randomly but once they happen, they stay.
Some other apps include VoiceCallerID and Mystique Chapter 1.

Ok that means i dont care about the language my apps will be displayed in as long as it is english "which should be in every rom.."
But i do care about the region they are set in... means when i start MIUI News/Weather (geniewidget.apk) I want to see News from Germany and temperature in Celsius..
When I play "who-becomes-rich" I want Euro for currency! and so on ...
Is there any way to set the region like that ? (build.prop or anything else..?)
