I have an Android library project that makes calls to PreferencesManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences.
I have 2 version of my app, paid/free, and they are not able to access the preferences stored by the library code.
Can someone tell me the right way to store values in SharedPreferences in library code and have the values available to projects that include the library?
Having custom attribute (in attrs.xml) in library project leads to compilation fail of the project dependent of that library.Code...
How to avoid this except for no having custom attributes in library?
I'm updating my application to take advantage of Android library projects. While I can get everything to build fine within Eclipse, I'm stuck trying to update my build.sh script to support library projects. At the moment, I can't figure out what options to pass to appt to tell it to look at my library projects when building my main project. Checking aapt--help has not been illuminating so far. Any suggestions?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a legacy application and need to split it into a library project (common code) and two application projects (paid and free applications). I don't use Eclipse for development, and also don't use Ant builds provided (generated) by Android SDK (there are several reasons for that: different project directory structure, unit tests integrated into the build, integration with CruiseControl, automatic builds numbering etc), but use our custom build files instead.
I need to modify my Ant builds to make them build my applications projects that refer my library project. I looked into sample application and Ant builds shipped with SDK, but didn't understand how it is done. I saw that library project contains "libs" directory and "default.properties" file with "android.library" property set to "true". I saw that applications project contains "default.properties" file with "android.library.reference.X" property set to library project directory value. But I didn't find any reference to these properties in the Ant builds (project Ant build file, and Ant builds shipped with SDK). Just placing these files into application/library project directories doesn't help, i.e. SDK tools doesn't interpret them.
My guess is that this is performed by com.android.ant.SetupTask, but I'd like to know how it is performed. My build is set of targets that call (using exec) Android SDK tools: appt, dx, apkbuilder and so on. So I'd like to know which command line parameters I need to use to make, lets say, appt tool to merge resources?
I created a libray android pakage i included a external jar (apache.commons) i marked the project as library. I create a new android project add library under andriod tab add project under source tab build it and it builds fine. As soon as i call something out of that class i get a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError. What is going on. I tried adding uses-library but then i get shared library not found. My permissions is the same as the library project. There is no activities in library project.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAccording to this SDK guide, unit-testing a Library project can be achieved by creating a standard application project, reference the Library project and then instrument the application for unit testing. However, when I do this and launch the test application I get the message.No tests found with test runner 'JUnit 3".I'm using Eclipse and the Android ADT plugin, all latest versions.the projects compile just fine. The test project also installs fine to the emulator. But in the console I can see that it looks for <library>.apk, which of course doesn't exist since I'm compiling this as a library into the test project.

And can someone direct me to a tutorial on creating an Android Library?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 2 projects in the following layout
MainActivityProject -> BaseProject
(i.e. MainActivityProject depends on the other project). Both are android projects created with the eclipse "New Android project functionality) however, the BaseProject does not have an activity defined. However, in BaseProject I define an activity base class where MainActivityProject's Activity derives from. This used to work fine up until 1.1 but now with the 1.5 SDK I get ClassNotFoundExceptions when launching the app.
Any suggestion on how to fix this? I obviously dont want to copy all the sources to a single project as I intend to reuse my Activity base class for other things (it contains some boiler plate stuff that I dont want to have in each and every activity.
I always face this problem in my eclipse. I would like have a copy of the apps in all the versions of SDKs/NDKs. And once I have a project in eclipse, and if I have to import the same project from a new location, I get the message saying "Can't import, project of the same name already exists". Is this how it is? We cant import the same project from its 2nd location in eclipse? Everytime I delete the project from old location and put it in new. I know, it is a very unacceptable approach).

View 8 Replies View RelatedI 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?
Here is the situation.
I have a java project "LicenseGenerator" in eclipse that depends on commons-codec. I have therefore added the commons-codec jar file to the build path. I have Junit tests and everything is working fine. I have made a different project in the same workspace - which happens to be an Android project - that needs to use my LicenseGenerator classes. I added LicenseGenerator to the "projects" tab in the build path - the classes were recognized and I was able to use them.
Everything compiled and ran. However, when the part of the LicenseGenerator that used the commons-codec was called from my Android project I got the following error.
Could not find method
org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64.encodeBase64URLSafeString,
Referenced from method
This basically tells me that the commons-codec was not packaged which the Android project, so I added the commons-codec to the android project as well but the same error appears.
I have a library-only Android eclipse project (no main class, only library classes) that I want to include in my main Android Application project. I went to the Build Path and added the library project to the "Required projects on the build path" on the Projects tab, and checked it on the "Order and Export" tab. However, when the application is run, it emits VerifyError exception, because the class from the library project didn't happen to be packaged together in the apk.

Just got the incredible and I need an app that will help me with work because that's the main reason I got a smartphone. I use to use Google Apps spreadsheets to keep track of all my writers projects, but it seems that would be harder on the incredible. Basically I need something where I can know which client the project is for, which writers are working on it, a short description of the project, if it's done, been paid for, etc. Any app that could help me with this?

Android AMF client library Aftek has extensive experience in developing enterprise Flex applications. We have used BlazeDS extensively and we believe that it would nice to provide all the benefits provided by AMF for Android applications as well. We have developed an Android AMF client library which would enable Android application developers use the same extensively. The Android AMF client library supports remoting and secured remoting. This will allow all android applications to use the existing backend like .NET, Java, or PHP. The implementation is asynchronous in nature providing success and failure callbacks. This allows application to perform other tasks without blocking the application. We are currently performing some performance benchmarking and plan to release our library very soon. We would also be incorporating the messaging feature as well.
Android RTMP client library:Aftek has extensive experience in developing voip and audio/video and media applications. Media applications has a huge market and there would be quite a few people eager to develop the medial applications on Android. We believe that it would nice to provide all the benefits provided by RTMP for Android applications as well. We are developing an Android RTMP client library which would enable Android application developers use the same extensively. Our Android RTMP client library would support some add-ons that would help developers to deliver robust media solutions.
We have an application cut into 3 android projects: * Project REAL (the real android project) * Project LIB1 (an android project without any activity, just to make android reusable classes) * Project LIB2 (same as LIB1) LIB1 and LIB2 are android projects rather than J2SE ones because LIB1 and LIB2 use Android classes. Project REAL has LIB1 and LIB2 in its project build path in Eclipse. In SDK 1.0 and 1.1, no problem at all when running the project REAL from Eclipse, it mixes the code of the 3 projects and produces one big APK with everything in it. But now in SDK 1.5, it installs 3 different APKs on the emulator or on the phone (I tested both), and the project REAL immediately crashes because of a Verify Error: it does not find a class that is in LIB1. The size of the produced APK is smaller, indeed LIB1 and LIB2 classes are not in it... I tried using uses-library in the manifest like google maps library but it complains at installing, we have a "missing shared library" error. I tried adding class folders in build path, it compiles in Eclipse but we still have a Verify Error. Same thing if we use external class folders in build path. The only thing that worked for me was to add an eclipse folder, which is in fact a symbolic link, and to make it a source folder. But that solution is not convenient for us because when we share the projects in SVN, the referenced paths are different for each developer. Using eclipse path variables can do the trick but it is far from being convenient. Indeed, if we have to reinstall Eclipse or if we move the place we check out the code in our developer station we have to reconfigure all these messy path variables in Eclipse. Is there a way to restore the old behavior on other android projects in build path ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI ran into a problem of slow builds and thought I'd share the solution. I'm porting an iPhone app to Android, and as soon as I added the images to the project (400+ pngs), build time went from about 5 seconds to about 40 seconds. This is on a new machine, quad core i7, 8GB ram. The resource processor (aapt) was to blame. Every time I made a change to a layout xml file and hit save - bam, wait 40 seconds. After running aapt in verbose mode, it was obvious what was happening - aapt does png optimization every single time. Optimization is slow, and aapt only used one core. So it makes sense to turn this optimization off. Just run optipng once, no need to optimize every build or every time I save a layout xml file.
So how do you turn png optimization off? You can't. There is no Eclipse setting, no command line option for aapt. Digging around the aapt source, I noticed something funny though - it only optimizes images in the "drawable" folders that end in ".png". http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;...
Solution: rename all the pngs to end in uppercase ".PNG". Then aapt simply copies the files without optimizing. My build time is back to 5 seconds!
(Caveat: this won't work for nine-patch files - they still need to end in lowercase ".9.png".)
I'm currently developing for Android using Eclipse. I have a lexicon viewer application (with package name "com.mycompany.myviewer") that I want to reuse multiple times, just changing specific resources such as app name and icons.For example, I have a certain publisher "Publisher1", who publishes the lexicons "Lexicon1" and "Lexicon2". I would need to two applications: App1 with certain name and icon, and App2 with another name and icon.What is the best way of doing this in Java? In visual Studio (and C++) I could create two projects based on the lexikon viewer app and use conditional resources to get the right name and icon. Is there some way of doing something similar in Java?
