**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Apr 02 02:59:57 2008
Apr 02 03:23:18 <jtoy> is it correct that you currently can't know what the incoming call phone number is when i call occurs?
Apr 02 03:23:57 <morrildl> jtoy: unfortunately, I believe that is the case
Apr 02 03:24:15 <jtoy> that sucks
Apr 02 03:24:20 <morrildl> THat's on the feature request list, and that reminds me that I need to track that down
Apr 02 03:25:36 <jtoy> morrildl: can yo usend me the ticket/link if you find it?
Apr 02 03:25:54 <morrildl> jtoy yeah, will do
Apr 02 03:25:57 <michaelnovakjr> anyone working with xmlrpc services?
Apr 02 03:26:10 <jtoy> thx
Apr 02 03:37:38 <jtoy> is it possible to have a screen popup on incoming calls?
Apr 02 03:50:48 <monitox> Oo
Apr 02 04:40:48 <jtoy> my friend is using a bundle as a hashtable, does that seem reasonable to you guys?
Apr 02 04:41:24 <jasta> it can be thought of an associative array that holds parcelable objects only.
Apr 02 04:45:33 <jtoy> i told him it seems pretty wasteful to me, but i dont really know if thats true
Apr 02 04:46:07 <jasta> how do you mean?  can you elaborate on how he is using it?
Apr 02 04:48:28 <jtoy> he is using just like an associative array , as a lookup table as he is looping through contacts and phone numbers. why I thought it might be wasteful is because I thought bundle were jsut for passing data between activities/intents  and so probably uses a lot of extra memory/overhead as opposed to some simpler  associative array( which I dont know what one would use instead since we are both not very familiar with java)
Apr 02 04:49:09 <romainguy> jtoy: HashMap is usually what's used for this
Apr 02 04:49:52 <jtoy> romainguy:  so I should let him use a bundle or tell him he is crazy?
Apr 02 04:49:57 <jasta> A Bundle would be unnecessarily restrictive for this purpose.  Best to use a HashMap as romain suggested.
Apr 02 04:50:15 <romainguy> jtoy: Bundle just has a narrower API
Apr 02 04:50:21 <romainguy> it's less flexible than HashMap
Apr 02 04:51:07 <jtoy> ok, we'll use hashmap then
Apr 02 04:51:20 <jasta> jtoy: It is also imprecise, which would confuse anyone reading your code.
Apr 02 04:54:49 <jtoy> so far there are many different things i am liking/disliking between using android/iphone and ruby web backend
Apr 02 04:56:26 <jasta> Great?
Apr 02 04:56:40 <jtoy> haha, great
Apr 02 04:57:47 <duey> i/o looks cool
Apr 02 04:58:09 <jasta> yeah, i registered to go.  my buddy lives down there so i figured it's a good excuse to go visit.
Apr 02 04:58:38 <duey> :o
Apr 02 04:58:48 <duey> pitty i live many miles away
Apr 02 04:59:12 <jasta> i live in Seattle, which is not very far relatively speaking.
Apr 02 04:59:30 <jasta> i was just in California last weekend too.  quick 2 hour flight.
Apr 02 05:02:56 <jtoy> i/o?
Apr 02 05:12:37 <romainguy> sweet
Apr 02 05:12:39 <romainguy> Lightroom 2.0
Apr 02 05:15:36 * jasta ponders the efficiency of local services
Apr 02 05:16:44 <jasta> are parcelables written/read in a local service instance or is memory shared in that case?
Apr 02 05:19:22 <jtoy> is it possible to use a Toast in an IntentReceiver?
Apr 02 05:20:41 <jasta> unlikely; but, should you?
Apr 02 05:21:17 <jtoy> IntentReceiver doesn't inherit from Context, so I cant seem to figure out how to use a Toast here
Apr 02 05:22:00 <jtoy> jasta, I am trying to display a popup everytime a call comes in, how I have it setup is the intenetreceiver gets the notification then sends a popup
Apr 02 05:23:44 <jasta> why would you want to do that?
Apr 02 05:24:04 <jasta> a toast would be very annoying to happen when a call comes in
Apr 02 05:24:46 <B0jangles> mmm...toast
Apr 02 05:25:14 <jtoy> there are many valid uses, for example, a quick check to a spam db that says  "the incoming number is associated with spam/call marketers" or something like that
Apr 02 05:26:00 <jasta> that information would be much better used to either block the call, or to add to contact information on the incoming call view itself.
Apr 02 05:26:04 <duey> marketers call cell phones now?
Apr 02 05:26:14 <jtoy> they do here
Apr 02 05:27:30 <jtoy> how about something like "the user is currently calling from NY" or something like that, there are some pieces of info someone would want to know about a  live incoming call
Apr 02 05:27:58 <jasta> again, should *not* be displayed in a toast.
Apr 02 05:28:10 <jtoy> anyway, how is the proper way for me to be able to display something from an intentreceiver?
Apr 02 05:28:16 <jasta> you would replace (or extend) the view being shown.
Apr 02 05:28:28 <jasta> the incoming call screen.
Apr 02 05:28:47 <jasta> that may be difficult using the current SDK, but that does not make using a Toast the right approach.
Apr 02 05:28:59 <jtoy> ok, replacing/extending is fine, i didnt know you could extend though
Apr 02 05:30:49 <jtoy> well, if its not really possible now, then temporarily for the contest, i think a toast is better than nothing
Apr 02 06:40:21 <davidw> 'morning
Apr 02 06:42:50 <cutmasta> mornin
Apr 02 07:33:31 <niket> Hi Andorid gurus !!!, does anyone know about any profiler or any API call to detect memory allocation, like total live objects, heap size, free size etc
Apr 02 07:33:46 <niket> for android apps
Apr 02 07:34:18 <niket> I want to monitor memory when my app runs
Apr 02 07:44:14 <niket> is anybody there to help me out?
Apr 02 07:52:07 <davidw> niket, I think there might be something in the docs....
Apr 02 07:52:12 <davidw> I don't recall offhand though
Apr 02 07:52:38 <niket> thanks david....which docs I can look into
Apr 02 08:16:15 <niket> Hi Andorid gurus !!!, does anyone know about any profiler or any API call to detect memory allocation, like total live objects, heap size, free size etc
Apr 02 08:16:23 <niket> I want to monitor memory when my app runs
Apr 02 08:16:28 <niket> is anybody there to help me out?
Apr 02 08:16:56 <davidw> niket, try googling for it...
Apr 02 08:17:08 <davidw> look at the archives of the android dev mailing list too
Apr 02 08:17:20 <niket> I tried but didn't get any...
Apr 02 08:19:20 <davidw> no idea then...
Apr 02 08:19:26 <davidw> damn I wish the sources were available:-(
Apr 02 11:44:08 <sandesh> hey can anyone tell me about tagging on maps in android
Apr 02 11:46:02 <sandesh> hello
Apr 02 11:47:52 <sandesh> anyone
Apr 02 11:52:25 <sandesh> anyone in layers here
Apr 02 11:53:27 <acsia> sandesh what do you need
Apr 02 12:16:21 <sandesh> acsia
Apr 02 12:16:25 <sandesh> u there
Apr 02 12:16:51 <sandesh> i want to tag my track
Apr 02 12:17:09 <sandesh> add some tag to track
Apr 02 12:18:25 <acsia> what do you mean tag?
Apr 02 12:18:31 <acsia> overlay you mean?
Apr 02 12:18:41 <sandesh> also want to mark a track it is just moving its not drawing a track
Apr 02 12:18:41 <sandesh> acsia:
Apr 02 12:19:51 <acsia> you need to create an overlay, there is a lot of exemple out there
Apr 02 12:19:52 <acsia> http://www.anddev.org/viewforum.php?f=18
Apr 02 12:23:42 <sandesh> tag means layering text on map
Apr 02 12:24:00 <zhobbs> sandesh: you use the Overlay class to create text/image overlays
Apr 02 12:24:13 <sandesh> any examples
Apr 02 12:24:23 <zhobbs> I think acsia just linked to one
Apr 02 12:24:27 <sandesh> ok
Apr 02 13:47:11 <davidw> any idea why an imageview gets 'overwritten' by a textview that follows it?
Apr 02 13:51:24 <AhtiK> I guess it's pretty likely that m5-rc15 is the latest SDK we see before the April14 deadline, right?
Apr 02 14:03:30 <acsia> probably
Apr 02 14:04:09 <acsia> in a ContentProvider, I don't see update working
Apr 02 14:04:10 <acsia> ...
Apr 02 14:04:26 <acsia> any ideas? I put a log in the update function but never seems to be callsed
Apr 02 14:04:28 <acsia> called
Apr 02 14:04:51 <acsia> I am not going crazy by saying that a commitUpdate will call the update function in contentProvider?
Apr 02 14:34:54 <acsia> when is update called within a ContentProvider?
Apr 02 14:55:50 <acsia> Can anybody help? I am really struggling on this... willl commitUpdates call update in the content provider?
Apr 02 14:56:03 <jasta> acsia: when a cursor's updates are committed, or mContent.update is called.
Apr 02 14:56:41 <jasta> actually, commitUpdates may not call update.  In fact, it probably doesn't.
Apr 02 14:56:47 <acsia> then I think I am going mental
Apr 02 14:56:49 <jasta> You could easily test, however.
Apr 02 14:56:52 <acsia> it does not look like it
Apr 02 14:57:18 <acsia> well I put  Log.i("MyLog", "update"); first line of updae in contentProvider and it is never called
Apr 02 14:57:39 <acsia> but then I don t see the usage of update in ContentProvider
Apr 02 14:57:56 <acsia> and the doc seems to point that it should be used to update the Cursor
Apr 02 14:58:19 <acsia> how would I then access the data just before it is being saved back to the db?
Apr 02 15:00:00 <jasta> well, have you tested for sure that update is not invoked?
Apr 02 15:00:53 <jasta> it would be a simple thing to test, I'd think.
Apr 02 15:01:03 <acsia> yes
Apr 02 15:01:15 <acsia> the update and delete don't work as it seems
Apr 02 15:01:34 <jasta> then i suppose your only option would be to extend a cursor and return that from query.
Apr 02 15:01:43 <acsia> as you said, I put a log in both the update and delete and none is called whenever I update or delete a row
Apr 02 15:01:52 <acsia> arf
Apr 02 15:02:06 <acsia> I want to cry
Apr 02 15:02:47 <jasta> why?  is extending a cursor hard for you?
Apr 02 15:03:35 <B0jangles> are you sure the log is working?
Apr 02 15:03:47 <B0jangles> have you tried just setting a breakpoint?
Apr 02 15:04:08 <jasta> yeah, I am actually suspicious that your technique is flawed as well.  I think that commitUpdates calls update on the ContentProvider.
Apr 02 15:04:13 <jasta> but I have not confirmed it.
Apr 02 15:04:31 <mike1o> wasn't the new sdk supposed to come out today?
Apr 02 15:04:54 <jasta> today, April 2nd? ;)
Apr 02 15:07:04 <acsia> a breakpoint crashed my app...
Apr 02 15:07:11 <B0jangles> ?
Apr 02 15:08:02 <acsia> let me try again
Apr 02 15:08:12 <jasta> If you are using Eclipse, close the variables view in the debug perspective.
Apr 02 15:08:23 <jasta> There is a bug in JWDP that can cause that to happen.
Apr 02 15:09:22 <acsia> 3rd try then thx
Apr 02 15:09:56 <acsia> nope
Apr 02 15:10:07 <B0jangles> it crashes?
Apr 02 15:10:10 <jasta> how so does it crash your app?  what does adb logcat say?
Apr 02 15:10:12 <acsia> yes
Apr 02 15:10:46 <jasta> (btw, i'm not sure i believe that you closed the variables view)
Apr 02 15:11:13 <acsia> haha I did yes but the log seems to indicate some issues with ParcelFileDescriptor
Apr 02 15:11:18 <acsia> I am using it so save files
Apr 02 15:11:29 <acsia> let me try with a very simple app
Apr 02 15:11:41 <jasta> again, how does it crash your app?
Apr 02 15:12:24 <jasta> do you understand my question?
Apr 02 15:12:54 <acsia> it closes my application
Apr 02 15:13:01 <acsia> in the log I have APP DEATH
Apr 02 15:13:15 <jasta> any fatal signal?
Apr 02 15:13:18 <acsia> WIN DEATH
Apr 02 15:13:39 <jasta> use adb logcat on the command-line.  do you see your app receiving SIGSEGV?
Apr 02 15:13:39 <acsia> sigfault
Apr 02 15:13:41 <acsia> INFO/DEBUG(494): signal 11 (SIGSEGV), fault addr deadd00d
Apr 02 15:13:53 <jasta> yes, then are you *sure* you disabled the variables view?
Apr 02 15:14:09 <acsia> well I closed the window for sure
Apr 02 15:14:31 <jasta> then i cannot say.
Apr 02 15:14:51 <sandesh> hey can anyone answer me this java.lang.reflect.constructor eroor
Apr 02 15:15:11 <jasta> acsia: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=501 -- that's why i ask.
Apr 02 15:15:15 <acsia> but it seems not related, I mean the crash seems to come from the parcel creator
Apr 02 15:15:44 <jasta> why do you say that?
Apr 02 15:15:59 <B0jangles> UPS man keeps unplugging the computer
Apr 02 15:16:22 <B0jangles> sorry, couldn't resist
Apr 02 15:16:32 <mike1o> jasta, could it be friday then?
Apr 02 15:18:11 <acsia> ERROR/dalvikvm(1379): HeapWorker is wedged: 16561ms spent inside Landroid/os/ParcelFileDescriptor$AutoCloseInputStream;.finalize()V
Apr 02 15:18:23 <acsia> that is the last error before the fault
Apr 02 15:18:39 <jasta> ahh yes, that does seem unrelated.
Apr 02 15:18:47 <acsia> but I did a tr
Apr 02 15:19:03 <jasta> mike1o: I'm saying, what evidence do you have to suggest that a release was going to be made the day after April Fools? :)
Apr 02 15:19:16 <acsia> y on a edit which does not involve the file descriptor and update does not seem to be called
Apr 02 15:19:23 <mike1o> jasta, maybe this is the April Fool
Apr 02 15:19:33 <jasta> Best I can tell, there have been only rumors that a release was coming before the challenge, none confirmed by Android engineers or developer advocates.
Apr 02 15:20:02 <mike1o> jasta, I just heard a week ago that a new release was coming out in a week :) totally unofficial though
Apr 02 15:20:15 <jasta> Right, and where did they hear it? :)
Apr 02 15:20:32 * B0jangles thinks jasta made it up
Apr 02 15:20:41 <mike1o> eheh
Apr 02 15:20:44 <jasta> Sort of :)
Apr 02 15:20:57 <Kraln> I've heard this too
Apr 02 15:21:00 <Kraln> maybe they meant m15?
Apr 02 15:21:09 * zhobbs thinks next release will be after the 14th...but who knows
Apr 02 15:21:58 <jasta> I had thought a release was coming, but Dan Morril has explained that even if one was coming, it would contain only bug fixes and such.
Apr 02 15:22:50 <zhobbs> yeah, I could see that...just a bug fix release to make the ADC judging/testing go smoother
Apr 02 15:23:03 <mike1o> similar to what I heard
Apr 02 15:23:07 <zhobbs> except that we already wrote our apps to work around the bugs
Apr 02 15:23:30 <B0jangles> heh, yeah, I have comments pointing to a bunch of bug reports
Apr 02 15:24:02 <mike1o> we have?
Apr 02 15:24:17 <B0jangles> lol
Apr 02 15:24:17 <jasta> I personally have just ignored a lot of the bugs; not worked around them.
Apr 02 15:24:29 <acsia> I just close my eyes
Apr 02 15:24:32 <B0jangles> I've had to work around a lot of GPS bugs
Apr 02 15:24:42 <Kraln> B0jangles: gps bugs such as?
Apr 02 15:25:10 <B0jangles> for instance, one of the GPS functions throws an exception every time you call it
Apr 02 15:25:14 <B0jangles> I forget which one offhand
Apr 02 15:25:18 <mike1o> gotta work around my bugs :)
Apr 02 15:25:27 <B0jangles> so I still call it, but it's in a try/catch block
Apr 02 15:25:31 <B0jangles> with my workaround in the catch
Apr 02 15:26:15 <B0jangles> I figure that way, if they fix it, it'll work
Apr 02 15:26:21 <B0jangles> if they don't fix it, it'll work
Apr 02 15:26:46 <Kraln> which one? I'm curious because I'm hitting walls on gps
Apr 02 15:27:09 <B0jangles> hang on, I'll look
Apr 02 15:27:53 <B0jangles> http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=462&can=4&colspec=ID%20Type%20Version%20Security%20Status%20Owner%20Summary
Apr 02 15:28:28 <Kraln> bah, seriously? :|
Apr 02 15:28:31 * Kraln fixes code
Apr 02 15:28:35 <B0jangles> lol
Apr 02 15:37:09 <acsia> I might try another approach, how about contentObserver. that seems to work on updates but then I don t have the Uri...
Apr 02 15:40:00 <jasta> content observers primarily exist to facilitate refreshing the UI.  it would not be a good place to track granular changes.
Apr 02 15:40:14 <jasta> an extended cursor would be more than capable, i am not sure why you avoid that approach.
Apr 02 15:40:42 <jasta> also, i still think update() is fired when commitUpdates is called.
Apr 02 15:41:03 <jasta> I would demonstrate that to be true, but I can't be bothered right now :)
Apr 02 15:42:19 <michaelnovakjr> hey jasta are you working with web services?
Apr 02 15:42:39 <jasta> no
Apr 02 15:43:55 <jasta> acsia: Looking at SQLiteCursor.java, however, I suspect that extending a cursor would be your only way.  But it should be very easy.
Apr 02 15:44:32 <jasta> you could easily just override deleteRow and commitUpdates.
Apr 02 15:44:57 <acsia> the problem is that I want to create a pluggable framework so I am creating an interface to ContentProvider
Apr 02 15:45:19 <acsia> Creating a cursor will be more intrusif
Apr 02 15:45:34 <jasta> right but, i'm looking at the code right now, it won't call the content provider.
Apr 02 15:45:44 <jasta> perhaps your only option then is to file a feature request and wait.
Apr 02 15:45:45 <acsia> but I ll find a way I guess, there are a couple of ways but the update method seemed the obvious one
Apr 02 15:46:05 <acsia> I dont  really understand the role of update then on ContentProvider
Apr 02 15:46:23 <jasta> for updates performed without a cursor.
Apr 02 15:47:04 <acsia> yes
Apr 02 15:47:12 <acsia> well..
Apr 02 15:47:34 <acsia> I ll grab a tea and attach the idea differently then
Apr 02 15:47:42 <acsia> it s a bit of pain thought
Apr 02 15:47:55 <acsia> for instance the delete does not 'work' either
Apr 02 15:48:13 <acsia> and I save files so I would like to delete all files corresponding to a uri
Apr 02 15:48:28 <acsia> instead of doing it each time I get a cursor and I delete it...
Apr 02 15:48:31 <acsia> oh well
Apr 02 16:19:14 <acsia> jasta: I ll create my own cursor...
Apr 02 16:19:22 <acsia> the tea is speaking
Apr 02 16:23:50 <jasta> all you'd have to do is extend and override 2 functions.  should be very simple.
Apr 02 16:35:58 <acsia> a well I don t have access to the uri within a cursor...
Apr 02 16:36:11 <acsia> so ContentResolver.update(uri....)
Apr 02 16:36:15 <acsia> can not be used
Apr 02 16:36:43 <jasta> uhm, what is wrong with your brain today? :)
Apr 02 16:37:16 <jasta> class MyCursor extends Cursor { public MyCursor(Uri uri, ...) { super(...); mUri = uri; } ...
Apr 02 16:37:53 <acsia> hahahaha
Apr 02 16:38:04 <jasta> what?
Apr 02 16:38:04 <acsia> I think I need to stop for a bit :)
Apr 02 16:38:09 <jasta> yeah, me too.
Apr 02 16:45:57 * bilboed-tp shooting himself in the foot while trying to teach autotools how to use the arm-linux-gnueabi toolchain
Apr 02 16:50:08 <davidw> damn
Apr 02 16:50:11 <davidw> it's snowing....
Apr 02 16:50:51 <davidw> using autotools is as painful as shooting yourself in numerous body parts
Apr 02 16:50:58 <bilboed-tp> no
Apr 02 16:51:18 <bilboed-tp> trying to teach it this retarded android no-it-is-not-open framework is painful
Apr 02 16:52:19 <bilboed-tp> s/framework/system/
Apr 02 16:52:20 <infobot> bilboed-tp meant: trying to teach it this retarded android no-it-is-not-open system is painful
Apr 02 16:52:40 <bilboed-tp> *sigh*
Apr 02 17:15:30 <Smoke_Screen> Hi all, have a few questions:
Apr 02 17:16:12 <Smoke_Screen> 1. Are there any Unit Testing Frameworks that can be used with Android and its development
Apr 02 17:17:21 <Smoke_Screen> 2. Can Javadoc or similar app be used with Android development (I am assuming yes as it's still Java thats being programmed in)
Apr 02 17:18:53 <Smoke_Screen> 3. Are there any documents with technical specs for Android yet along the lines of number of simultaneous TCP connections etc
Apr 02 17:23:44 <muthu> Smoke: have you looked at instrumentation?
Apr 02 17:25:10 <acsia> smoke: http://code.google.com/android/reference/junit/framework/package-summary.html
Apr 02 17:25:29 <acsia> not sure if it works all the way as I heard people having issues
Apr 02 17:25:38 <acsia> secondly javadoc yes, annotation no
Apr 02 17:26:00 <acsia> for the third question well not really as it will probably be more hardware related then software (limitation that is)
Apr 02 17:30:59 <Smoke_Screen> thanks sorry for the irritating but its in the documentation questions but still working my way through it all but have a project proposal deadline coming up so needed the Cliff Notes
Apr 02 17:32:09 <Smoke_Screen> So for 3 does that mean the emulator should be able to do most things a PC does
Apr 02 17:32:35 <Smoke_Screen> for the network connection at least
Apr 02 17:32:53 <Smoke_Screen> and whatever speed like 3G you choose
Apr 02 17:34:18 <Smoke_Screen> muthu: Sorry not too sure where instrumentation is in the documentation
Apr 02 17:57:22 <acsia> smoke: more or less yes
Apr 02 17:57:47 <acsia> search instrumentation in the google code page and there is a bit of information
Apr 02 17:59:05 <Kuja> is it normal for socket to return null if you feed it a dotted ip address?
Apr 02 17:59:17 <Kuja> it doesn't throw an exception - just returns null
Apr 02 18:08:34 <zhobbs> morrildl: will the judges have mp3 files to test media players?
Apr 02 18:22:04 <acsia> in a content observer what is the role of the handler?
Apr 02 18:22:07 <acsia> anybody knows?
Apr 02 21:43:09 <jasta> i just had an interesting idea
Apr 02 21:43:16 <jasta> it would be really great if the emulator could simulate power draw / battery life
Apr 02 21:43:37 <jasta> dalvik could actually do this reasonably well, by simply observing instructions
Apr 02 21:43:47 <jasta> but it would be much cooler to implement it at the kernel layer.
Apr 02 21:45:11 <acsia> well you potentially could
Apr 02 21:45:26 <acsia> somebody managed a native helloworld
Apr 02 21:45:36 <B0jangles> for using GPS, are there any other relevant permissions than ACCESS_LOCATION, ACCESS_GPS, ACCESS_ASSISTED_GPS, and ACCESS_CELL_ID?
Apr 02 21:45:37 <jasta> yes, many people.
Apr 02 21:46:24 <B0jangles> getFromLocation always throws an IOException for me...I just want to make sure it's not my fault
Apr 02 21:46:32 <B0jangles> I think I have all of the necessary permissions set
Apr 02 21:47:28 <acsia> IOException is probably not related to permissions
Apr 02 21:47:32 <B0jangles> okay
Apr 02 21:47:37 <acsia> well you would see it in the log
Apr 02 21:47:48 <B0jangles> oh, does it log it/
Apr 02 21:47:49 <B0jangles> ?
Apr 02 21:47:53 <B0jangles> i'll look
Apr 02 21:56:00 <raidfive> B0jangles, it almost seems like the mock file the Geocoder class is looking for doesn't exist for some reason
Apr 02 21:56:21 <B0jangles> raidfive: maybe we're supposed to create it?
Apr 02 21:56:41 <B0jangles> raidfive: I think you're probably right
Apr 02 21:57:19 <raidfive> /data/misc/location/geodb
Apr 02 21:57:23 <raidfive> that is the default file
Apr 02 21:57:46 <raidfive> if the emulator can't find it, it will toss that IOException
Apr 02 21:58:17 <B0jangles> how do you load it into the emulator?
Apr 02 21:58:42 <raidfive> do you not have that file in the os file system?
Apr 02 21:58:58 <raidfive> do you know how to check?
Apr 02 21:59:03 <B0jangles> I've no idea
Apr 02 21:59:05 <B0jangles> nope
Apr 02 21:59:13 <raidfive> are you using the eclipse plugin?
Apr 02 21:59:15 <B0jangles> yeah
Apr 02 21:59:27 <raidfive> switch to the DDMS perspective
Apr 02 21:59:44 <B0jangles> okay
Apr 02 21:59:51 <B0jangles> oh
Apr 02 21:59:53 <B0jangles> heh ;-)
Apr 02 21:59:58 <raidfive> File Explorer :)
Apr 02 22:00:15 <B0jangles> I do have a geodb file
Apr 02 22:00:22 <raidfive> strange
Apr 02 22:00:32 <B0jangles> how do I see what's in it?
Apr 02 22:00:51 <B0jangles> I don't seem to be able to open the file or anything
Apr 02 22:00:58 <raidfive> in the upper right hand corner there is an icon to pull the selected file from the os
Apr 02 22:01:05 <raidfive> as well as push a file
Apr 02 22:01:13 <B0jangles> ah hah!
Apr 02 22:01:39 <raidfive> I edited that file with my own locations and pushed it back to the file system recently
Apr 02 22:01:42 <raidfive> works fine
Apr 02 22:01:59 <raidfive> but I'm still not sure about the IOException you are getting
Apr 02 22:02:05 <raidfive> latest sdk?
Apr 02 22:02:10 <B0jangles> yes, latest sdk
Apr 02 22:02:51 <B0jangles> you're using getFromLocation?
Apr 02 22:03:22 <raidfive> getFromLocationName() actually
Apr 02 22:03:37 <B0jangles> I wonder if getFromLocationName works, but getFromLocation doesn't...
Apr 02 22:04:14 <raidfive> it is possible ... checked the issue list lately?
Apr 02 22:04:35 <B0jangles> Well, there's a bug report, but I'm the one that made it ;-)
Apr 02 22:04:56 <B0jangles> hasn't been approved yet, though
Apr 02 22:06:53 <raidfive> hmm yea, I see another bug listed for getFromLocation() also
Apr 02 22:07:02 <raidfive> but that is a different situation
Apr 02 22:07:05 <B0jangles> URL?
Apr 02 22:07:35 <raidfive> http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=427
Apr 02 22:07:48 <raidfive> not the same issue though
Apr 02 22:08:01 <raidfive> but it does look like that method is borked :)
Apr 02 22:08:02 <B0jangles> huh. but apparently it's not throwing an exception
Apr 02 22:08:43 <B0jangles> I wonder if it's because I've put it in a clas
Apr 02 22:08:46 <B0jangles> *class
Apr 02 22:09:02 <B0jangles> do I need to pass it a context somehow or something?
Apr 02 22:09:31 <raidfive> want to link your code via pastie or something for me?
Apr 02 22:09:58 <B0jangles> what's the site people use for that?
Apr 02 22:10:17 <B0jangles> oh pastebin
Apr 02 22:10:19 <B0jangles> hang on
Apr 02 22:10:47 <raidfive> there are multiple ones
Apr 02 22:11:33 <B0jangles> here you go: http://pastebin.com/d20af8da9
Apr 02 22:18:27 <raidfive> nothing is standing out
Apr 02 22:18:33 <B0jangles> yeah ;-)
Apr 02 22:18:38 <B0jangles> tx for looking, though
Apr 02 22:19:08 <raidfive> hopefully someone responds to your bug report soon
Apr 02 22:19:15 <B0jangles> I hope so
Apr 02 23:51:34 <acsia> B0jangles: check http://androforge.net/gf/project/androlib/scmsvn/?action=browse&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fsrc%2Fnet%2Fandroforge%2Fwidget%2FLocationDialog.java&view=markup
Apr 03 01:19:51 <tmcneal> soo... anyone know how to programatically set the layout_span of a View inside a TableRow? :)
Apr 03 01:23:25 <romainguy_> yes
Apr 03 01:23:31 <romainguy_> just use the TableRow.LayoutParams
Apr 03 01:25:29 <tmcneal> great, thanks romain
