I want to refer to a static Java variable in my styles.xml, is that possible? Here's a pseudo-xml example:
<style name="Artwork">
<item name="android:background">@drawable/border_{Constants.MY_COLOR}</item>

View 11 Replies View RelatedI am having a static method .In the method when I decalare a variable , it was showing an error in eclipse saying that the variable should be decalared as final.
Can I know the reason for this , y should a variable in a static method be declared as final? I am writng an Android application where I should pass as an argument current Context of that application. So, when I pass the current context to the method and trying to copy it in a local variable , I am getting this error saying that the variable should be declared as final.
My method is like this:

I'm writing an android app that requires binding a JSON object into a domain entity with the keys from the JSON as instance variables. Since there are several domain entities, each with different instance variables that the JSON needs to bind to in the app, i'd like to write a method such as ths following: Loop through all the instance variables from the domain if a key exists in the JSON with the name of the instance variable, take the value for this key from the JSON and set the Domain's instance variable with this key name equal to this value. The reason i'm interested in the doing the binding from the class to the JSON is because if the JSON changes for some reason, I don't want it to break the app when the instance variable doesn't exist in the app's domain for a specific JSON key.

I have noticed in my application(s) that after a call to Activity.finish() that the static variables that I declared in my classes still hold the values that they were changed to during the activity's life cycle. Upon the re-launch of the activity, the program does not re-instantiate the variables as declared or set them to the default java behavior. Is there something that I can do to cause this to happen, other than re-setting every static variable in my application?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI seriously need help with a quite strange problem. I created a client which communicates with a server. Therefore, I have three classes. An activity providing a nice dialog to configure some data, a background service which checks the connection status periodically and a server class which handles the socket connection. Originally, the background service owned a server connection object but because I could not manage to provide data from the activity to the service, I decided to create the server connection class as singleton. The user is now able to change data in the activity (IP, Port, Username, Password) which shall be transmitted to the server object, if the save button is pressed. The data is read correctly, the activity calls the setter of the server class and the logcat also says that this data is correctly applied to the variable that stores the data in the server class. However, if I try to start the socket connection still the old values are stored in my variables although they've been overwritten before. What I am doing wrong, or how can I fix this?

I have been facing problems to manage statics variables used in my android application. If we exit the application against a particular event (touch or key event -which is must for my app), all the statics variables are retaining the values when I am launching it again. I am invoking Activity.finish() method for termination . I know there is a collection type class available called Bundle and we can use it to save the states of all the statics and get those back when again creating the same activity during relaunch, but it would be a hard task if we want to port some j2me applications to Android because of having thousands of statics variables. Is there any way to kill the application completely including all the statics variable used there?
I tried with System.exit(0) and it works well for Android G1 and G2 (tested in firmware 1.6). But in Android Robyn (prototype) the same causes a major defect ("Activity not responding" popup apears just after exit) and I came to know from android dev forum that calling System.exit(0) is not recommended for termination of an activity.
I am working to set a countdown timer. I have successfully (borrowed) a number picker (spinner) and set up the dialog box for the user to set the time.

I want to call the set values (R.id.hour and R.id.mins) from the dialog (timepickeractivity) to the actual countdown class (countdown) but I can't figure out how to get the values.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have tried to understand for the past 2 days what is the best approach to making the value from a variable sitting in activity A (in my case, the int position used in OnListItemClick / OnItemSelectedListener) available in another activity B (which of course sits in another class). There may be the option to write the result of the OnListItemClick int position into a small SQLite DB - but that seems to be total overkill.
Anybody could pls share the best approach with me?

I'm building a small Android application, but this is more of a Java question than an android question. Looking through the tutorials there are lines that look like: startService(new Intent(this, MyService.class));
What exactly does the "MyService.class" field represent? Is that just a reference to the class for a template?
I am new to Android, and I haven't developed any app regarding databases on Android yet. So I have a few basic questions. I am after a good database class sample, that will let me to run the CRUD operations. I would like to use it as a static class
like: clsDB->Select("select * from clients");
or objClient->Delete(clientid);
I am wondering if someone, can share his database classes, if more people share the best. Also I have in mind to reuse this class in multiple ways, I will have services, activities etc...
Why should a static method in java accept only final or non final variables within its method, but not static?
For example I have the following method:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an application that is driven by a configuration XML: various app properties are loaded at the app start-time by parsing the XML and initializing static variables of some class. The data read from this XML drives different Activities of the application. Presently, I have called the "parsing and the properties-initialization" from the onCreate() of my Main Activity. I have a few questions as regards this case/approach: Should I invoke the app initialization method from the Application Object or is the current approach correct?
What advantages/disadvantages do/would we get/have if I choose to invoke it from the Application object? Do we really need a static class to store app properties? Or can we have all the properties as a static Collection variable in the application object? Parsing a XML(~200 nodes) at app load time might take some time (not sure how long tho); How can I avoid the dreaded ANRs? I am using a Pull Parser.
if the inner UpdateService class is not static, it cannot start the service. The ActivityManager complains "Unable to start service Intent"...
View 8 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to call a non-static method, located in my main application Class, from the Preferences Class. Because the method I call is not static, I instantiate the main class and then try to call the specific method I want but it's force closing.

Preference sorted = (Preference) findPreference("sortPref");
sorted.setOnPreferenceChangeListener(new Preference.OnPreferenceChangeListener() {

((Dmarks) d).queryBookmarks();
return true;

Toast.makeText(context, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
//context is not null and the Toast is working if I call it from Dmarks.class }

Before I submit this I just wanted to check it's not a java nuiance.
The Color class can be used to extract rgb values from a pixel (32 bit int).

137 is the magic number causing the error in my case, there may be more.
I have a thread on StackOverflow (titled: NoClassDefFoundError for Jersey 2.4.1 client in Android) but I thought I would reach out here in hope of getting a more specific/targeted audience group.I have followed instructions from other posts about the libs Android dependency fix but I still get the issue.
I am using Eclipse Juno, with an Android App targeting API 17. Basically I am getting a NoClassDefFoundError at runtime for the org. glassfish. jersey. model.internal.CommonConfig$1 class located in jersey-client-2.4.1.jar. This is when I just do a Run As... deploy from within Eclipse and it fails when I instantiate the CommonConfig class or one that depends on it internally. The start up log is given below:
[HIGH]12-10 12:25:20.657: I/dalvikvm(10170): Failed resolving Lorg/glassfish/jersey/model/internal/CommonConfig$1; interface 920 'Lcom/google/common/base/Function;'
12-10 12:25:20.657: W/dalvikvm(10170): Link of class 'Lorg/glassfish/jersey/model/internal/CommonConfig$1;' failed
12-10 12:25:20.657: E/dalvikvm(10170): Could not find class 'org.glassfish.jersey.model.internal.CommonConfig$ 1', referenced from method
[code]....
It doesn't seem to find a static inner class of CommonConfig. In the SO forum I tinkered with some options in ProGuard but I've come to learn that this isn't even used in the standard debug mode, only when you do a release build (Export from Eclipse). It would appear that something is happening with the class but I can't figure out why it would not be included if its parent is. Is there some kind of 'light' ProGuard process that goes on when a debug deploy is done? how to resolve this particular case of NoClassDefFoundError?
I think I have a pretty easy problem to solve, but I have been beating my head against the wall for hours trying to get past it! I have an adapter that loads a list of URLS:
adapter=new MyAdapter(this, lStrings);
list.setAdapter(adapter);
The list of URLS looks like this:
private String[] lStrings={
"http://www.domain.com/file1.jpg",
"http://www.domain.com/file2.jpg",
"http://www.domain.com/file3.jpg",
};
What I want instead is to load these values from a text file that lies on the SD card. For that matter, I would be okay with loading the values from a text file into a String, and then load the String into the list as I imagine that would be the "cleaner approach". However, all attempts to do this have failed. For instance, I replaced the above snippet with this:
private String[] lStrings=
{ MainActivity.this.getString(R.string.myurllist) };
but then I get a Forced Close on loading.
I'm a bit new to Java, Android, and development in general.
