Android :: Create Project And Activity Name
Nov 9, 2009
Once upon a time (Android 1.5 and earlier), when you would create a new project using the "android create project" command, it worked well -- you had an app that could immediately be compiled and installed.
Now, though, when you run that command, a number of places need fixing up, where ACTIVITY_NAME shows up instead of the activity name specified...depending on the API level you target.
For example:
CODE:............
leaves ACTIVITY_NAME in:
CODE:..........
If I change the target to 1, 3, or 4, it works as expected. If I have the target as 2 or 5, it gives me the ACTIVITY_NAME.
So, I'm curious to know if:
a. This is a bug, or
b. I'm missing something (despite this example coming straight from the docs), or
c. I've lost my marbles

I want to start a new android project in Eclipse but it is not showing up when i choose file > new. I also checked file > new > other. I can't see any option to create android project.
I'm completely new to Android development (but not to programming as such). I'm following the tutorial at Android Developers and got stumped immediately.
I've installed Eclipse and the Android SDK
adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030

I'm trying to create a new Eclipse Project where I can test android classes without having to start the emu or connect a device.
I imported the android libraries, but I can't get it to work... My project only contains one java file where I use an android class, I only want to start it as a simple java app.
The error I get is: "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Stub!"
My question is: How can I create a simple java project (in eclipse) which uses android classes?

I installed JavaEE, JDK, Eclipse 3.5.x (Galileo), the Android Starter SDK, and the current ADT all with no problems. However, when I try to walk through the 'Hello Android' tutorial, I bring up the New Android Project wizard, fill it in and hit 'Finish'.
After a moment, it comes back with a message saying there was a problem at path X:so and so (access denied).
Things to note:
-Running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
-Quadcore Pentium with 8GB RAM, 8TB NAS
-I am an Administrator
-I have also tried this by activating the full (hidden) Administrator profile
-I have reinstalled everything 8 or 9 times
-I have changed ownership & permissions all over the place
-I have launched eclipse in 'Run as Administrator' Mode
-I have installed Everything as 32-bit, as others have done this successfully
Eclipse creates the folder it's having a problem with, but then cannot work with the .project file it creates (access denied). It then can't save anything so there is nothing but an empty folder 'Hello_Android' on the left within Eclipse.
Anybody have any clues about what is going on-- I'm frustrated. I want to get into this, and I've looked EVERYWHERE on the net trying to crack this nut....

I followed these tutorials to set up a Hello World Android app. But when I create a new java project I can't select a build target. It just says no targets available in the target selection box. I have confirmed that I am not having the UI issue described here (http://blog.rowancrane.com/2009/12/27/eclipse-new-android-project-cant-select-build-type-target), I actually have a message in the box saying there are no targets instead of an empty box. I also am using 1920x1080 res.
I'm guessing that eclipse is just not aware of my Android Targets? I installed them in the android SDK manager and see them listed under installed packages in the Android SDK manager (1.1, 1.6, ..., 2.2)
http://fyi.oreilly.com/2009/02/setting-up-your-android-develo.html
http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/hello-world.html
Any suggestions on how I can create the project and get started?

When a TabWidget is using intents to designate the target Activity for each tab, is there any special handling of those Activities on the Activity Stack outside of the default operation? For Instance, if my app has tabs A, B, and C, and I click them in this order--A, B, A, C, A, B--how will the Activity stack change? My understanding of the default operation, if startActivity() is called each time on the intent, would have the Stack keep loading up new instances of the activities: A, AB, ABA, ABAC, ABACA, ABACAB It's hard to believe that's how it works though... Seems like it would be a waste of resources and could be endless. Can anyone tell me how this will actually work?

I want to create a stub of one of my Activities, but I want to keep it in the test project so not to have it in the actual apk. I don't seem to be able to find a way to do it though. I get this:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to resolve activity for: Intent { act=android.intent.action.MAIN flg=0x10000000 cmp=com.example.test.StubActivity }
I did find if I put it in the main project and put it in the manifest accordingly (IntentFilter:(Action:Main, Category:Default)) it will work, well it actually crashed, but I am not bothered by that. Something to fix later on.I did think about putting everything in the same main project and just have a test package, but that would then involve messing the manifest, I think. It seems better to keep them separate. It's just cleaner.

I am working on developing an app and I am not sure when should I use a new activity and when should I update the existing view.
For example, lets say I have a view that shows a multiple choice question.Now, when the user selects his choices and clicks on say "Evaluate", I want to show the same question view but along with the right answers and explanations for each option. So does that mean, I should send an Intent upon a click on Evaluate or I should just update the view (i am not sure how)?
If I send an intent and show a new screen, how can the user go back to the next question without displaying the answers? If I don't create an new activity, how can I update the existing view that is already displayed?

How i can create android project's library that can be used in any different project. I create a jar file that contains all activities and add this jar file into my eclipse project build path. But if i need to use any activity then i must need to register this jar activity into my project AndroidManifest.xml. This looks very odd. I need a solution in which i have a jar or any other deployable file that contains multiple activities and any user can use them in his project without registering these jar activities into NEW android application AndroidManifest.xml file.

I followed the instructions for installing the Android SDK on Windows 7 from
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
But when I open Eclipse and click "New" it doesn't show "Android" in the list, even when I click "Other". Nor does it appear under the "Window" tab. What step am I missing to make "Android" appear in the "New" options or "Window" options.

I've downloaded one of the open source Android Applications (the music application) from the Android git, and I'm trying to create a new project from the source. Creating a new project using that existing source doesn't work giving me an "invalid description error".

I am using Eclipse and had downloaded all necessary updates. Unfortunately, I am unable to create a new project. Under the [B]New>Projects[/B] option I am unable to select [B]New Android Project[/B]. It is missing from the list (please refer to the print screen). I am not sure if I correctly installed the Android SDK. Or I missed out some steps during the installation. I'm new to Android so I would appreacite it if someone could help me on this matter.

Here's my use case: The app starts at a login screen. You enter your credentials and hit the "Login" button. Then a progress dialog appears and you wait for some stuff to download. Once the stuff has downloaded, you are taken to a new activity. Exactly which activity you are taken to depends on the server response.
Here's my problem: If you go HOME during this login/download process, at some point in the near future your download will complete and will invoke startActivity(). So then the new activity will be pushed to the foreground, rudely interrupting the user. I can't start the activity before I start the download, because, as I mentioned earlier, the activity I start depends on the result of the download.
I would obviously not like to interrupt the user like this. One way to solve this is to refrain from calling startActivity() until the user returns to the app. I can do this by keeping track of the LoginActivity's onStop() and onRestart(). But I'm wondering, is there any way to create the activity while it is in the background? That way the user returns to the app and he is ready to go. otherwise he would have to wait for the new activity to be created (which could take some time because the new activity also has to download and display some data). Update: Guess what? I LIED! I could have sworn that starting this activity was causing it to come to the foreground, but I went back to test it again and the problem has magically disappeared. I tested in both 1.6 and 2.0.1 and both OSes were smart enough not to bring a backgrounded task to the front.

I've gone through a few guides and tutorials, and they're quite clear on how to start an activity (with intent). However, how do I create a new activity in Eclipse? I can probably do this by hand by then I have to modify the R file which is auto-generated. I can create a new XML layout.

Somethings I'll have an? .xml file selected when I compile a project, only to have a? .out.xml generated. Deleting the file doesn't clear the error, and Eclipse won't compile the project. It just reports that your project contains errors. The solution is to go to Project/Clean. This will clear the error in the project and allow it to compile.

I can now get our Android project to talk to our non-Android project. But there's still an issue: I are trying to have an Android class call a non Android Hello World class. I tried compiling our non-Android Hello World class in a separate Eclipse workspace. I then packaged it into a jar. I imported that jar into our Android Hello World class.
I then called one of the methods in the non-Android Hello World class. When I ran the Android Hello World class as an Android application, the following runtime error occurred. Here are the Android debug logs:
08-11 09:07:56.764: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(333): FATAL EXCEPTION: main

I want to launch an Activity with a webView as its content from current Activity. This new activity needs to be transparent and webview should be in the center. I looked around the web but only solutions I found were using style xmls. I want to do it using pure code i.e. no xml declarations. if anybody has come across this then please shed some light.

I have been trying to create a ListView Activity with an ImageView in every row. I've used this tutorial: http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/examp... The issue is that there are always some dividers missing whenever I run the example. The dividers are disappearing/appearing and flickering as i scroll the list (tested in emulator and HTC Tattoo). Strange is that the same example downloaded from the market (API Demos app) behaves correctly. Here is a screenshot of how it looks: http://yfrog.com/4cnokp.

Long story short, I have a LaunchActivity which is always called by LAUNCHER (i.e. the home screen). It then starts LoginActivity and then closes itself.This is the flow:
User launches app
LaunchActivity starts, starts
LoginActivity and then calls
finish() on itself (At this point
LoginActivity is the only Activity
on the stack)
User press "Home" button, stopping
LoginActivity
User launches the app again When the app is launched for the 2nd time, two things can happen:
LaunchActivity starts, finishes
itself and then STARTS LoginActivity
LaunchActivity starts, finishes
itself and then CREATES
LoginActivity, so there are now two
LoginActivitys on the stack.
(2) seems to happen when I restart Eclipse and the simulator (yeah I know, black magic). Some extra info: I'm not using any start flags and my manifest doesn't have any launchModes defined.

In case there is anybody out there who would like to create a support- application to an activity that is already used by everybody on the Internet, the moment has come! I'm particularly interested in developers with deep knowledge of Linux services and/or the Android GUI. Note: this is not yet another password vault or similar, this is about *eventually getting rid* of passwords!

I want to create multiple instances of an activity in the same process. Should I use FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag like the code below?
CODE:...............
This code is executed in class A to create another instance of activity A.
This question, will this code create another task? As I understand is a process can only have one task. Does it mean the two activities will exist in different tasks? That's what I want. I want the two activities to be in the same process.
