I have an error stating something like: The method foo() is undefined for the type bar(){}
Eclipse tells me that after entering this code:
CODE:...........
I'm not sure if this is the problem, but I have it located under....
CODE:......
I'm guessing it has a problem with "this." I'm still learning about Android so I'm going pretty basic.
I have the following code but there is an error: "The method getSharedPreferences(String, int) is undefined for the type EventsData".
Does it mean I need to extend both SQLLiteOpenHelper and Activity?

I'm trying to open database as follows :
CODE:...
This code works fine when I implement it in the Service class, but when I try to implement this in the onPostExecute eventhandler of the GeneraterThread class,implementing AsyncTask, I get the following error :
'The method openOrCreateDatabase(String, int, null) is undefined for the type GeneraterThread'
I am getting the following error:
ERROR: The method killBackgroundProcesses(String) is undefined for the type ActivityManager
Now I am dead sure that ActivityManager contains that method http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/ActivityManager.html#killBackgroundProcesses%28java.lang.String%29.
Here is the code.

I am creating a Geocoder object like.

Here i got this error in eclipse. i.e.
The method getBaseContext() is undefined for the type MyMapOverlay
getBaseContext() is a default method in android.content.ContextWrapper class.
I am developing an app that upon receiving an SMS message with a unique string of text, the GPS is enabled and starts tracking the location of the phone. The issue I'm having is with the getSystemService() method.
I receive the error "The method getSystemService(String) is undefined for the type SmsReceiver", I believe this is because it does not have a context. I have tried to add in a context with in my code with 'ctx', and that removes the error but my application crashes every time I run it on my phone. The code for recieving the SMS works fine, and the GPS location tracking code works fine if it's in my main class.
I still don't fully understand contexts.

Im trying to make an activity that has a multiple choice dialog after you push a button. In there you select from a list of things. But these things are received from a web method before the dialog appears. So I create a string array after I receive them inside the onCreate to initialise it there with the correct size. But my dialog method then cant get the array because propably its out of its scope.
My code looks like this:
CODE:............
I cant initialise my array when the class starts because I dont know its size yet. This has to do something with the scopes of my variables and I am pretty confused
Since the type is determined automatically by the build system ( booleans, ints, floats and strings ) i wondered if there is any way to force the datatype to string.I tried adding a space at the end ( "5555555555 "), but then the value gets interpreted as 5.5555553E9 float! ).I also tried using getString instead of get, but then null is returned.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am going through the android hello world tutorial, and have been stuck when trying to create an XML UI. For some reason, even on a new program, in which I have made no changes to the default build, it gives the error java.lang.NullPointerException after every character I type. I can't figure out why it is doing this, as I am just trying to edit the text between the Text I want to set it to say something other than what is set by default. However, even with a fresh build, no changes, and I just try to change the text within the xml tags, it still gives the error. What do I need to do to allow it to let me type? I am using the eclips IDE and the android sdk. I was able to do the first part of the tutorial that doesn't involve XML.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen programming for Android sometimes you have to use static methods. But when you try to acces you resources in a static method with getString(R.string.text) you'll get an error. Making it static doesn't works. Does anyone knows a good way around this because the resource files in Android are very helpfull for creating things in different languages or making changes to a text.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have code which has one activity which passes information to a second activity.
I can use this information to pass to a third activity with additional information from the result of the second activity.
I want to use gestures as a method of going back to a previous activity, but if I go back from the third to the second activity I need the information initially passed from the first to the second activity to still be present.
i.e.
First Acticity
what is Y?
answer y = 5
Second activity
User said Y = 5
what is X?
Third Activity
User said Y = 5
X = 6
Go back to Second activity but maintain the input of
User said Y = 5.
To do this I have used a bundle to pass the information between activities, but I can only access the info in the bundle from within a method within the class started by the intent.
The gesture controls are within another class, so I cannot access the bundle information from within this class as the getIntent command produces a not defined error.
What I need to do is to be able to pass the information from the bundle from the first activity to the gesture class so that I can pass it back when I go back using the gestures.
am getting this error: cannot find symbol symbol: method log(java.lang.String) when using method : log("some test", +test);

I am simple sudoku app. My main.xml has 81 EditText and 2 buttons as shown below.
CODE:................
In my activity class, I have grouped all these 81 EditTexts into one 2- dimensional array as shown below.
CODE:....................
Now when I try to do a simple getText() method on textArray[][], it gives me a runtime error but setText() method works fine on textArray[] [] textArray[i][j].getText().toString()
The code snippet below displays a Dialog with a simple login-form. The problem is that when the user hits the login-button, the text that was entered into the EditTexts are not returned on the getText()-call. However, if I set android:setText="foo" on the EditTexts in the xml-layout "foo" is returned on getText(). why the text entered at runtime won't stick?
CODE:..............
and the XML:

I've tried null and empty string, any other ideas?

I have a program that should work on Android 1.5, but when it's run on newer devices with higher resolution screens, it should support the full resolution and not emulate a lower resolution screen. As far as I can tell from the documentation, this should be simple.
I just specify
code:.........
The problem is that if I tell Eclipse to compile for 1.5, it refuses to accept this. It reports an error (targetSdkVersion is an unknown tag) and refuses to compile or run. If I tell it to compile for 1.6 it works fine, of course. But if I then try to install on a 1.5 AVD, the program immediately crashes with a java.lang.VerifyError. I'm clearly missing something simple. How do I get it to compile an apk that works under 1.5, but still includes the targetSdkVersion tag?
How do I convert phone resolution Bootanimation to tablet resolution?
I have 4 boot animations that I want to convert to work on my Nexus 10 full screen.
Also, how to be able to edit [URL] to show 10 instead of 4 or completly remove the number so it works nicely on both my Nexus 4 and Nexus 10.
I have the localized strings file that is used in the Iphone app that I work on to port to Android. Are there any tools that go through the file taken from the xcode project and build the xml needed to use the strings in android? This tool should be easy to build but I appreciate any pointers to already working tools.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIn Android, capturing date from datepicker and storing as string in sqlite. Sorting by date doesn't work because they're strings (unless I'm doing it wrong.I've googled this issue for ~5 days, and it looks like there should be a way to capture the date from the date picker, convert it to a Long, store it in sqlite as a Long, select and sort on the Long date value, then convert the Long back to a "mm/dd/yyyy" string for display. I've tried various combinations of parse statements, Date, FormatDate, etc. with no luck at all.On activity start, get today's date and display it in button which calls the datepicker.Capture new date from datepicker (if one is entered), save it as a long to sqlite.On opening an activity showing a listview of records, select from sqlite with orderby on date (Long), convert Long to "mm/dd/yyyy" string for display in ListView.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI started learning Java and how to program for Android last night. So far I'm on this tutorial: developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html. Clearly these tutorials have been designed for people that already have experience with Java.
Despite the tutorial lacking all the required steps (for an absolute beginner with Java) and even having a typo, it seems I've figured everything out (which I'm really proud of :p). Except I cannot figure out how to fix TabHost tabHost = getTabHost(); which apparently is undefined.
I have one other error shown in the linked image below, but I don't see why.
Here is the linked image.
I have preferences where you can enable/disable what items will show up on the menu. There are 17 items. I made a string array in values/arrays.xml with titles for each of these 17 items.
I have preferences.xml which has the layout for my preferences file, and I would like to reference a single item from the string array to use as the title.
In the Android developer reference, I see how I can reference a single string with XML, but now how I can reference a string from an array resource in XML.
Can anybody give me some clue that how to convert binary string into a string(english). I have tried and googled so much but couldn't find an answer.
