It's a simple app I've got and I'd like the button I've made to launch a specific URL via the browser. Could you guys give me a little info to get this going, like I've said I've got the button already to go in my app. Here's the code -- lemme' know if you need anything else
.java File
package reseeveBeta.mpi.dcasey;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class ReseeveBetaActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
}
.XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Welcome to Reseeve, tap register to begin account creation" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Register" />
<EditText
android:id="#+id/editText1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="textMultiLine"
android:text="If you already have and account, please login below" >
<requestFocus />
</EditText>
</LinearLayout>
This line should open your built-in browser, with the specified url:
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).setData(Uri.parse("http://www.google.com")));
Your Activity should have parts like this:
//define class variables here
Button btn;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
//some code of yours
btn=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
btn.setOnClickListener(this);
//more code of yours
}
//whatever else you have in your source code
public void onClick(View v)
{
//handle the click events here, in this case open www.google.com with the default browser
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).setData(Uri.parse("http://www.google.com")));
}
It might not be 100% accurate syntax, since I did just write this on my own, but you get the idea.
You can do that with Rebol 3, this easily:
REBOL []
load-gui
view [button "Go" on-action [browse http://msn.com]]
That's a fully functioning GUI program, which runs on Android AND on desktop, using the exact same code across all platforms. Take a look at:

Simple create one WebView in xml
<WebView
android:id="#+id/web_view"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1.0" />
Here is the Simple java code for that
String URL="www.gtumca.co.cc";
WebView wv=(WebView)findViewById(R.layout.web_view);
onClick()
{
wv.loadUrl(URL);
}

This link says that to make the app display a layout, you create a main_layout.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Button android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Hello, I am a Button" />
</LinearLayout>
and then load it in onCreate method:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// main_layout.xml is compiled into the R.layout.main_layout object
setContentView(R.layout.main_layout);
}
My problem is that I am coding in C, and have the C version of "onCreate" method:
JNIEXPORT
void ANativeActivity_onCreate(ANativeActivity *activity, void *savedState,
size_t savedStateSize) {
....
}
is it possible to load the layout and make the app display it in the C language?
C uses "ANativeActivity" that it doesn't has any of Java methods and resources/objects. Even if you manually parse that XML you should MANUALLY implement all Widgets/Components in C.....so it's near impossible due to high amount of work involved in it.
Usually someone chooses C on Android to do "some special work" that is not available on normal Java or due to performance issues on it.
I have got an idea to get rid of some coding when we do initializion of views.
When we create an xml layout in android. At that movement same name class is created with UpperCase Letters with a dialogue with permission. And as i created views with ids. It should create Views and initialize them automatically.
for e.g
close.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/closeBtn"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/close_img" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/closeText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Testing Text" />
</LinearLayout>
And automatically generated java code should be.
public class Close extends Activity
{
TextView CloseText;
Button CloseBtn;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
CloseText = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.closeText);
CloseBtn = (Button)findViewById(R.id.closeBtn);
}
}
I can read xml and do the other stuff as I explained. But how could i add this module to eclipse and How could i create a service which work in Background all the time in eclipse.
Suggest me how to add this module(Plugin) to eclipse and i am going to use JAXB to generate Java Objects from XML document. Is there any better option.
Here in this website i find that just paste the xml and you will get your java code ready for activity class.
i had attached the link
I am new to android development, and have been trying to use the beginner's tutorial as my starting point for developing a simple app. There is one screen, with an image, a row of four buttons, a textbox for the user to enter a pin, and a textview to display results.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/linear_layout_1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:contentDescription="#string/image"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/skytrek"
/>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/linear_layout_2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:text="#string/button_today"
android:onClick="today_click" />
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:text="#string/button_tomorrow"
android:onClick="tomorrow_click" />
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:text="#string/button_this_week"
android:onClick="this_week_click" />
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:text="#string/button_next_week"
android:onClick="next_week_click" />
</LinearLayout>
<EditText android:id="#+id/editText1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/edit_message" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/init_message"/>
</LinearLayout>
I have code to deliver the results I want based on the button pressed - all fine. But then I wanted the user to enter a PIN as well as pressing a button, so I added the EditText control. This threw the following error:
E/AndroidRuntime(28578): Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.TextView cannot be cast to android.widget.EditText
My Java class:
private String content = null;
private TextView textView1;
private EditText editText1;
public void today_click(View view) {
getPage("today");
}
public void tomorrow_click(View view) {
getPage("tomorrow");
}
public void this_week_click(View view) {
getPage("thisweek");
}
public void next_week_click(View view) {
getPage("nextweek");
}
public void getPage(String strParam) {
editText1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);
String message = editText1.getText().toString();
if (message.equals("4567")) {
content = "PIN recognised";
} else {
content = "PIN not recognised";
}
textView1 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
textView1.setText(content);
}
I thought I had done something silly, using the name of a TextView instead of an EditText control, but I can't find it if I have.
The error is being thrown at the line
getPage("thisweek");
I didn't understand how this line involved views of any sort, but of course the function heading
this_week_click(View view)
does, and when I changed the order of the TextView and the EditText in the XML file (so that the TextView comes first), the error disappeared. It is as if the "view" being passed is not the button, but the nearest widget to the button. I have read
existence of parameter (View view)
but it only seems to confirm my (mis)understanding that a button should be passed as the view parameter. I have also tried cleaning the project, and building a completely new project. What on earth is causing the casting error?
If you're using Eclipse, go to the menu voice "Project" and select "Clean"
Sometimes Eclipse has some problem with ids, by cleaning the project you regenerate them..
Everytime if you make any changes in xml or any interchange of position of views in xml or change of id's,you need to clean build your project.If not you will get this exception.
Hello I have tested your code, your code is fine. Please clean your project from
select your project then click on Project and then Clean and also check the Build Automatically . Your auto generated class R is not generated properly.
Try cleaning your project and run it again..
Eclipse -> Project menu ->Clean
It is because eclipse gets confused when we play around in the xml file ;)
I downloaded latest ADT from the main website and it came with Eclipse. So, I set everything up fine > Start new Android project. Set my settings, and the Activity to "Blank Activity", click finish.
Now, I go to the visual editor and add a button and some text. The problem is, is that "findViewById" is not detecting the button for some reason. Yes, I "Cleaned" the project and all that..
Here's the xml portion:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/button1"
android:layout_marginTop="37dp"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />
<EditText
android:id="#+id/editText1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:ems="10" >
<requestFocus />
</EditText>
<Button
android:id="#+id/button1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/editText1"
android:layout_marginTop="52dp"
android:text="#string/button" />
</RelativeLayout>
Here's my source code:
package com.example.tcp;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.Button;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button ibtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1); // Error
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
return true;
}
}
Did you actually save the activity_main.xml? View ID's are not accessible to the rest of the project until you save the layout you're working on.
I copied and pasted your code straight into a blank project and it worked fine after saving.
Its just the basic error so clean your project and build again if its not work then restart eclipse and start once again it will display your button.In the same way you followed
don't even import R.java it will show you error..
so clean and build your project
In your TextView you have
android:layout_below="#+id/button1"
Delete the plus so you have
android:layout_below="#id/button1"
Also it's better when you move the code of the textview below the code of the button. The Relative layout will position it where it's supposed to be anyway. But this way you don't link to an id that doesn't exist yet.
You declare a id with the + in the id. So in your case you declare it twice.
(Also for furure reference when you post something on StackOverflow with an error. Please mention the error in all cases. It makes finding the error and helping you a lot easier.)
I looked at the R file and it was empty before I "ran" the project. After clicking "run" it added the id fields in the file. Seems to be working fine now. I guess it was actually a problem with the activity_main.xml not saving. Thanks again
Hi iam working on android getting the following problem for my login but i didn't got my mistake... The error notice is the application has been terminated unexpectedly
my code is
package layout.program;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Tablelayout extends Activity{
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.tablelayout);
}
}
tablelayout.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TableRow android:id="#+id/tableRow1" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="TextView" android:id="#+id/textView1" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" android:layout_width="wrap_content"></TextView>
<EditText android:id="#+id/editText1" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="fill_parent">
<requestFocus></requestFocus>
</EditText>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
Try Cleaning your Project..
By Selecting the Project and then go to top project option and then select clean.
and then select OK..
Sometimes Changes are not made in R.java...Thats y this error comes
Your code is working fine at my end..please look in your code if there is anything which is causing the exception..Try to debug with debugger....
There's nothing wrong with your code or xml, so it has to be an error in your manifest.
As this application is just a stub, why not do this:
Create a new Android project, call it anything you like.
Call the activity 'TableLayoutActivity'
Put your tablelayout.xml into the layout folder.
Change the automatically generated code in TablelayoutActivity.java to set the content view from setContentView(R.layout.main) to setContentView(R.layout.tablelayout)
This should work, then have a look at the manifest in the new project, to see where you went wrong in your original project.
change the class name and try again,also check if the activity name mentioned in the android manifest is correct.
