Android :: Create A Helper Class To Display Toasts In App?
Dec 21, 2009
I am trying to create a Helper class to display Toasts in my android app, as follows.
CODE:................
My code is based on the example at: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/notifiers/toasts.html
My problem is, when I try to inflate the view, I can't call findViewById without the View from the activity I am calling toastAlert in. Is there a way I can access that view?

I am using a custom class based off RelativeLayout but it obviously doesn't render in the Eclipse layout editor. I have found this article regarding LayoutInflater.Factory and it sounds like what I need to be doing but I can find no guides to using LayoutInflater.Factory.
http://www.macadamian.com/blog/post/android_-_custom_classes_from_xml_layout/
Could anyone help with exactly what and where I do this? I understand what is said in the article, but need specifics on where to declare, hook, whatever the Factory. In case it is helpful, here is the complete console output from when I try to view main.xml in Layout view..
java.lang.ClassCastException: android.view.View cannot be cast to android.view.ViewGroup

I wish to have a single class which all of my Activity classes extend. I have ListActivities, Activities, MapActivities, TabActivities, etc in my App.
I have many of these different activities in my app, ~12 activities. I want each of them to have the methods which are in the parent class.
Right now, i have created 4 parent activity classes which are extended from a certain activity depending on their type(ListActivity, Activity, MapActivity, TabActivity)
I am creating a lot of redundant code - each of the 4 parent activities has almost identical code, in exception for what class activity it extends.
Here is an example that may clarify what my problem is:
I have an Activity: MenuScreen which extends BaseListActivity BaseListActivity extends ListActivity BaseListActivity contains methods and fields which i want all my activities to have access to I have another Activity: HomeScreen which extends BaseActivity BaseActivity extends Activity BaseActivity contains the same methods and fields which are in my other Base[<type>]Activity classes(such as BaseListActivity)
These methods/fields are copy-pasted to all my Base[<type>]Activity, and seems awfully redundant to me.
Can i create a master activity class which all types of Activity classes can use as its parent? if not, am i stuck with copy and pasting this code and feeling gross/dirty about it?

When I type ImageView or AnimationDrawable I get a string of errors proclaiming:
AnimationDrawable cannot be resolved to a type.
line 14 Java Problem
I don't understand, do I need to create another class? Or do the AnimationDrawables just not go in the filename.java?
And if I do need to create another class, can you show me how?

I currently have an app that has many activities and needs to have a way of maintaining state between these activities.
I use the Application class to do this, declaring my global variables and using getters and setters to interact with my activities.
I was hoping to place a few custom methods in there, so that when I want to do a common task like, for instance, display an error message, I can declare the method in my application class and call it from any activity that uses it
EscarApplication application = (EscarApplication) this.getApplication();
EscarApplication being the name of my application class above.
I have tried to include this method in my application class:
CODE:.....
In the hope that I can call this method from activity without having to redeclare it, but when I call it using something like below I get an null pointer exception:
Visit.this.application.showError("Update error", "An error has occurred while trying to communicate with the server");
Visit being the name of my current activity above.
Should this work, or can I only use getters and setters to change global vars in an Application Class.
EDIT Stack Trace:
CODE:...............
The dialog is declared as such in the application class:AlertDialog alertDialog;
Created in that same class:alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this).create();
And the method to call it in that class is as follows:
CODE:.............
And finally, it is called from an activity like so:
CODE:........................

I am writing an app that has a single database file with 3 tables ( AudioTable, PeopleMap, ImageTable) and am looking at 2 design alternatives:
1. A -single- database adapter (myDBAdapter.java) which uses a database helper class that extends SQLiteOpenHelper. The adapter class has separate methods for accessing and updating rows in each of the 3 tables. ie. insertAudio() insertPeople() insertImage()
2. 3 different database adapters for each table all using the same db file.. 1. audioDBAdapter.java, 2. peopleDBAdapter.java, 3. imageDBAdapter.java) Each adapter uses it's own db helper class (extending SQLiteOpenHelper)
While option 2 offers better encapsulation of the 3 classes (and corresponding data), I'm wondering if there couldbe a performance overhead or does the SQLiteOpenHelper implementation handle this without much overhead ?
Or is there some other way I can get better encapsulation with option 1. something similar to the way the Contacts Provider nicely allows for separate instances of Contacts.People, Contacts.Phones, Contacts.Settings, etc.

note: there are two versions of VLC Remote, I'm talking about this one: http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.hobbyistsoftware.android.vlcremote_us
Is VLC Setup Helper supposed to be open on the computer to establish a connection with my phone? When I'm playing a file in VLC, and open up the phone's app, it won't connect until I open up "VLC Setup Helper". It just seems a hassle to always remember to open up VLC Setup Helper all the time.

I have a ListActivity that uses a CursorAdapter to fill the rows in the view. I wrote a database helper class that gives me back results for common queries I make for my app, and it uses an SQLiteOpenHelper implementation I wrote to open the database. I use the open helper to open the database and get a cursor to pass to my CursorAdapter.
Here's a code snippet:
CODE:...................
The problem I'm having, that I didn't have before I implemented the open helper (before I just opened the database directly without a helper), is when I click on an item, which takes me to another activity, and then go back to this activity. When it initializes everything is fine, and my list is populated fine, but when I go back from the activity that follows, the list is empty and in the LogCat I see "Invalid statement in fillWindow()".
It appears from a few post I've seen that the reason is, when I requery the cursor, the database is closed. But I'm not closing it! I'm scratching my head on this one.

I have a service running in the background.I have a background thread that gets a reference to the service from the application's main activity. But when the background thread calls a method in the service to display a toast, I get the "Looper not initialized exception".Why,if I have a valid, bound reference to a Service, does this still happen?

I'm just getting into Android development, and I have a question about communicating between a receiver class and an activity class. I'm very new to JAVA and Android so I hope I don't sound too stupid. I'm developing an application where I intercept an SMS message and then based on various elements of that SMS I might delete it once it's been saved to the inbox. I have a receiver class that intercepts the txt message, and I am also able to delete messages from my inbox with code in the activity class using a button at the moment. The problem I have is communicating between the receiver class and the activity class where the code to delete a message resides. I tried putting that code directly into the receiver class but as I'm sure most of you already know the BroadcastReceiver class doesn't seem to support what I need to delete messages. I've been searching for an answer to this for a while, but haven't been able to find anything. Honestly I'm not sure I know enough about JAVA and Android to even recognize a solution if I saw it.
