Common Patterns
Change view on a set of data
Select multiple items
Dashboard
Devices amp Resolutions
dpi = dots per inch
for graphics
for fonts
dp = density independent pixels (1dp might be 1 pixel or 2 pixels depending on the dpi)
sp = scale independent pixels

AndroidManifestxml
4 Main Components
1 Activity
2 Service
3 Content Provider
4 Broadcast Receiver
Activity
bull Activity = Screen
bull An app is made up of 1 or more activities
bull Stack of activitiesscreens
bull Activity lifecycle
bull App-X can activate App-Y component
bull Intent
bull App-X can access App-Y shared data
bull Content Resolver
Activity
HelloWorldActivity
Activity class has functions to handle onCreate onResume onPause etc
Activity
bull Launch an Activity by calling startActivity(intent)
Launch a known ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(this SignInActivityclass)startActivity(intent)
Launch a system ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(IntentACTION_SEND)intentputExtra(IntentEXTRA_EMAIL recipientArray)startActivity(intent)
Activity
bull Activity must be declared in AndroidManifestxml
ltmanifest gt ltapplication gt ltactivity androidname=HelloWorldActivity gt ltapplication gt ltmanifest gt
HelloWorldActivity is shorthand for comjust2ushelloworldHelloWorldActivity
Service
bull Service runs in the background even when user is not interacting with your app
bull Service or Thread
bull To start call startService()
bull Similar to Activity has its lifecycle and various event callbacks
ContentProvider
bull A way to share data across applications including apps such as phonebook calendar etc
bull You can access the phonebook data using a ContentResolver
bull Have query insert delete methods (SQLite)
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver()crquery(ldquocontentandroidproviderContactsPhonesCONTACT_URIrdquo
projectionselection selectionArgsortOrder)
BroadcastReceiver
bull Responds to system-wide broadcast announcements such as incoming phone call SMS sent picture captured etc
User Interfaces

View Hierarchy
1 View - Android UI component view or widget 2 ViewGroup - Layout or container view
View
bull UI components can be found in androidwidget package
bull Basic UI
bull TextView
bull Button
bull TextField
bull Progress bar
bull List
bull etc
ViewGroup(aka layout manager)
A simple LinearLayout
ViewGroup
TableLayout
ViewGroup
RelativeLayout
User Interfaces
bull 3 ways to construct UI
1 Drag-and-drop interface builder
2 XML
3 Code
The way of XML
ltxml version=10 encoding=utf-8gtltLinearLayout xmlnsandroid=httpschemasandroidcomapkresandroid androidorientation=vertical androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=fill_parent gt ltTextView androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=wrap_content androidtext=stringhello gtltLinearLayoutgt
reslayoutmainxml
looks in resvaluesstringxml and find the value for the key ldquohellordquo
Equivalently
androidtext=Hello world too
The way of XML
ltxml version=10 encoding=utf-8gtltLinearLayout xmlnsandroid=httpschemasandroidcomapkresandroid androidorientation=vertical androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=fill_parent gt ltTextView androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=wrap_content androidtext=stringhello gtltLinearLayoutgt
reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code
package comjust2ushelloandroid
import androidappActivityimport androidosBundleimport androidwidgetTextView
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))
Execute HTTP POST RequestHttpResponse response = httpclientexecute(request)
Multimedia
bull Camera
bull Playback audio and video
Multimedia - Camera
bull 2 ways to capture photo
bull Using capture intent
bull Using Camera class directly
Multimedia - Camera
private static final int CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 100private Uri fileUri
Overridepublic void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
create Intent to take a picture and return control to the calling application Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStoreACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE)
fileUri = getOutputMediaFileUri(MEDIA_TYPE_IMAGE) create a file to save the image intentputExtra(MediaStoreEXTRA_OUTPUT fileUri) set the image file name
start the image capture Intent startActivityForResult(intent CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE)

4 Main Components
1 Activity
2 Service
3 Content Provider
4 Broadcast Receiver
Activity
bull Activity = Screen
bull An app is made up of 1 or more activities
bull Stack of activitiesscreens
bull Activity lifecycle
bull App-X can activate App-Y component
bull Intent
bull App-X can access App-Y shared data
bull Content Resolver
Activity
HelloWorldActivity
Activity class has functions to handle onCreate onResume onPause etc
Activity
bull Launch an Activity by calling startActivity(intent)
Launch a known ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(this SignInActivityclass)startActivity(intent)
Launch a system ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(IntentACTION_SEND)intentputExtra(IntentEXTRA_EMAIL recipientArray)startActivity(intent)
Activity
bull Activity must be declared in AndroidManifestxml
ltmanifest gt ltapplication gt ltactivity androidname=HelloWorldActivity gt ltapplication gt ltmanifest gt
HelloWorldActivity is shorthand for comjust2ushelloworldHelloWorldActivity
Service
bull Service runs in the background even when user is not interacting with your app
bull Service or Thread
bull To start call startService()
bull Similar to Activity has its lifecycle and various event callbacks
ContentProvider
bull A way to share data across applications including apps such as phonebook calendar etc
bull You can access the phonebook data using a ContentResolver
bull Have query insert delete methods (SQLite)
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver()crquery(ldquocontentandroidproviderContactsPhonesCONTACT_URIrdquo
projectionselection selectionArgsortOrder)
BroadcastReceiver
bull Responds to system-wide broadcast announcements such as incoming phone call SMS sent picture captured etc

1 View - Android UI component view or widget 2 ViewGroup - Layout or container view
View
bull UI components can be found in androidwidget package
bull Basic UI
bull TextView

ViewGroup(aka layout manager)
A simple LinearLayout
ViewGroup

User Interfaces
bull 3 ways to construct UI
1 Drag-and-drop interface builder
2 XML
3 Code
The way of XML

reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code

public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))

bull 3 ways to construct UI
1 Drag-and-drop interface builder
2 XML
3 Code
The way of XML

reslayoutmainxml
looks in resvaluesstringxml and find the value for the key ldquohellordquo
Equivalently
androidtext=Hello world too
The way of XML

reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code
package comjust2ushelloandroid
import androidappActivityimport androidosBundleimport androidwidgetTextView
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))

2 Service
3 Content Provider
4 Broadcast Receiver
Activity
bull Activity = Screen
bull An app is made up of 1 or more activities
bull Stack of activitiesscreens
bull Activity lifecycle
bull App-X can activate App-Y component
bull Intent
bull App-X can access App-Y shared data
bull Content Resolver
Activity
HelloWorldActivity
Activity class has functions to handle onCreate onResume onPause etc
Activity
bull Launch an Activity by calling startActivity(intent)
Launch a known ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(this SignInActivityclass)startActivity(intent)
Launch a system ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(IntentACTION_SEND)intentputExtra(IntentEXTRA_EMAIL recipientArray)startActivity(intent)
Activity
bull Activity must be declared in AndroidManifestxml
ltmanifest gt ltapplication gt ltactivity androidname=HelloWorldActivity gt ltapplication gt ltmanifest gt
HelloWorldActivity is shorthand for comjust2ushelloworldHelloWorldActivity
Service
bull Service runs in the background even when user is not interacting with your app
bull Service or Thread
bull To start call startService()
bull Similar to Activity has its lifecycle and various event callbacks
ContentProvider
bull A way to share data across applications including apps such as phonebook calendar etc
bull You can access the phonebook data using a ContentResolver
bull Have query insert delete methods (SQLite)
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver()crquery(ldquocontentandroidproviderContactsPhonesCONTACT_URIrdquo
projectionselection selectionArgsortOrder)
BroadcastReceiver
bull Responds to system-wide broadcast announcements such as incoming phone call SMS sent picture captured etc

View Hierarchy
1 View - Android UI component view or widget 2 ViewGroup - Layout or container view
View
bull UI components can be found in androidwidget package
bull Basic UI
bull TextView
bull Button
bull TextField
bull Progress bar
bull List
bull etc
ViewGroup(aka layout manager)
A simple LinearLayout
ViewGroup
TableLayout
ViewGroup
RelativeLayout
User Interfaces
bull 3 ways to construct UI
1 Drag-and-drop interface builder
2 XML
3 Code
The way of XML
ltxml version=10 encoding=utf-8gtltLinearLayout xmlnsandroid=httpschemasandroidcomapkresandroid androidorientation=vertical androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=fill_parent gt ltTextView androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=wrap_content androidtext=stringhello gtltLinearLayoutgt
reslayoutmainxml
looks in resvaluesstringxml and find the value for the key ldquohellordquo
Equivalently
androidtext=Hello world too
The way of XML
ltxml version=10 encoding=utf-8gtltLinearLayout xmlnsandroid=httpschemasandroidcomapkresandroid androidorientation=vertical androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=fill_parent gt ltTextView androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=wrap_content androidtext=stringhello gtltLinearLayoutgt
reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code
package comjust2ushelloandroid
import androidappActivityimport androidosBundleimport androidwidgetTextView
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))
Execute HTTP POST RequestHttpResponse response = httpclientexecute(request)
Multimedia
bull Camera
bull Playback audio and video
Multimedia - Camera
bull 2 ways to capture photo
bull Using capture intent
bull Using Camera class directly
Multimedia - Camera
private static final int CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 100private Uri fileUri
Overridepublic void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
create Intent to take a picture and return control to the calling application Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStoreACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE)
fileUri = getOutputMediaFileUri(MEDIA_TYPE_IMAGE) create a file to save the image intentputExtra(MediaStoreEXTRA_OUTPUT fileUri) set the image file name
start the image capture Intent startActivityForResult(intent CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE)
Capture photo
Multimedia - Camera
private static final int CAPTURE_VIDEO_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 200private Uri fileUri
Overridepublic void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
create new Intent Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStoreACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE)
fileUri = getOutputMediaFileUri(MEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO) create a file to save the video intentputExtra(MediaStoreEXTRA_OUTPUT fileUri) set the image file name
intentputExtra(MediaStoreEXTRA_VIDEO_QUALITY 1) set the video image quality to high
start the Video Capture Intent startActivityForResult(intent CAPTURE_VIDEO_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE)
Capture video
Multimedia - Camera
private static final int CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 100private static final int CAPTURE_VIDEO_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 200
Overrideprotected void onActivityResult(int requestCode int resultCode Intent data) if (requestCode == CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE) if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) Image captured and saved to fileUri specified in the Intent ToastmakeText(this Image saved ton + datagetData() ToastLENGTH_LONG)show() else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) User cancelled the image capture else Image capture failed advise user

4 Main Components
1 Activity
2 Service
3 Content Provider
4 Broadcast Receiver
Activity
bull Activity = Screen
bull An app is made up of 1 or more activities
bull Stack of activitiesscreens
bull Activity lifecycle
bull App-X can activate App-Y component
bull Intent
bull App-X can access App-Y shared data
bull Content Resolver
Activity
HelloWorldActivity
Activity class has functions to handle onCreate onResume onPause etc
Activity
bull Launch an Activity by calling startActivity(intent)
Launch a known ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(this SignInActivityclass)startActivity(intent)
Launch a system ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(IntentACTION_SEND)intentputExtra(IntentEXTRA_EMAIL recipientArray)startActivity(intent)
Activity
bull Activity must be declared in AndroidManifestxml
ltmanifest gt ltapplication gt ltactivity androidname=HelloWorldActivity gt ltapplication gt ltmanifest gt
HelloWorldActivity is shorthand for comjust2ushelloworldHelloWorldActivity
Service
bull Service runs in the background even when user is not interacting with your app
bull Service or Thread
bull To start call startService()
bull Similar to Activity has its lifecycle and various event callbacks
ContentProvider
bull A way to share data across applications including apps such as phonebook calendar etc
bull You can access the phonebook data using a ContentResolver
bull Have query insert delete methods (SQLite)
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver()crquery(ldquocontentandroidproviderContactsPhonesCONTACT_URIrdquo

BroadcastReceiver
bull Responds to system-wide broadcast announcements such as incoming phone call SMS sent picture captured etc

1 View - Android UI component view or widget 2 ViewGroup - Layout or container view
View
bull UI components can be found in androidwidget package
bull Basic UI
bull TextView

bull 3 ways to construct UI
1 Drag-and-drop interface builder
2 XML
3 Code
The way of XML
ltxml version=10 encoding=utf-8gtltLinearLayout xmlnsandroid=httpschemasandroidcomapkresandroid androidorientation=vertical androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=fill_parent gt ltTextView androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=wrap_content androidtext=stringhello gtltLinearLayoutgt
reslayoutmainxml
looks in resvaluesstringxml and find the value for the key ldquohellordquo
Equivalently
androidtext=Hello world too
The way of XML
ltxml version=10 encoding=utf-8gtltLinearLayout xmlnsandroid=httpschemasandroidcomapkresandroid androidorientation=vertical androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=fill_parent gt ltTextView androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=wrap_content androidtext=stringhello gtltLinearLayoutgt
reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code
package comjust2ushelloandroid
import androidappActivityimport androidosBundleimport androidwidgetTextView
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))
Execute HTTP POST RequestHttpResponse response = httpclientexecute(request)
Multimedia
bull Camera
bull Playback audio and video
Multimedia - Camera
bull 2 ways to capture photo
bull Using capture intent
bull Using Camera class directly
Multimedia - Camera
private static final int CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 100private Uri fileUri
Overridepublic void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
create Intent to take a picture and return control to the calling application Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStoreACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE)
fileUri = getOutputMediaFileUri(MEDIA_TYPE_IMAGE) create a file to save the image intentputExtra(MediaStoreEXTRA_OUTPUT fileUri) set the image file name
start the image capture Intent startActivityForResult(intent CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE)
Capture photo
Multimedia - Camera
private static final int CAPTURE_VIDEO_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 200private Uri fileUri
Overridepublic void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
create new Intent Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStoreACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE)
fileUri = getOutputMediaFileUri(MEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO) create a file to save the video intentputExtra(MediaStoreEXTRA_OUTPUT fileUri) set the image file name
intentputExtra(MediaStoreEXTRA_VIDEO_QUALITY 1) set the video image quality to high
start the Video Capture Intent startActivityForResult(intent CAPTURE_VIDEO_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE)
Capture video
Multimedia - Camera
private static final int CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 100private static final int CAPTURE_VIDEO_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 200
Overrideprotected void onActivityResult(int requestCode int resultCode Intent data) if (requestCode == CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE) if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) Image captured and saved to fileUri specified in the Intent ToastmakeText(this Image saved ton + datagetData() ToastLENGTH_LONG)show() else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) User cancelled the image capture else Image capture failed advise user

bull 3 ways to construct UI
1 Drag-and-drop interface builder
2 XML
3 Code
The way of XML
ltxml version=10 encoding=utf-8gtltLinearLayout xmlnsandroid=httpschemasandroidcomapkresandroid androidorientation=vertical androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=fill_parent gt ltTextView androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=wrap_content androidtext=stringhello gtltLinearLayoutgt
reslayoutmainxml
looks in resvaluesstringxml and find the value for the key ldquohellordquo
Equivalently
androidtext=Hello world too
The way of XML
ltxml version=10 encoding=utf-8gtltLinearLayout xmlnsandroid=httpschemasandroidcomapkresandroid androidorientation=vertical androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=fill_parent gt ltTextView androidlayout_width=fill_parent androidlayout_height=wrap_content androidtext=stringhello gtltLinearLayoutgt
reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code
package comjust2ushelloandroid
import androidappActivityimport androidosBundleimport androidwidgetTextView
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))

Service
bull Service runs in the background even when user is not interacting with your app
bull Service or Thread
bull To start call startService()
bull Similar to Activity has its lifecycle and various event callbacks
ContentProvider
bull A way to share data across applications including apps such as phonebook calendar etc
bull You can access the phonebook data using a ContentResolver
bull Have query insert delete methods (SQLite)

bull 3 ways to construct UI
1 Drag-and-drop interface builder
2 XML
3 Code
The way of XML

reslayoutmainxml
looks in resvaluesstringxml and find the value for the key ldquohellordquo
Equivalently
androidtext=Hello world too
The way of XML

reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code
package comjust2ushelloandroid
import androidappActivityimport androidosBundleimport androidwidgetTextView
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))

bull 3 ways to construct UI
1 Drag-and-drop interface builder
2 XML
3 Code
The way of XML

reslayoutmainxml
looks in resvaluesstringxml and find the value for the key ldquohellordquo
Equivalently
androidtext=Hello world too
The way of XML

reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code
package comjust2ushelloandroid
import androidappActivityimport androidosBundleimport androidwidgetTextView
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))

bull 3 ways to construct UI
1 Drag-and-drop interface builder
2 XML
3 Code
The way of XML

reslayoutmainxml
looks in resvaluesstringxml and find the value for the key ldquohellordquo
Equivalently
androidtext=Hello world too
The way of XML

reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code
package comjust2ushelloandroid
import androidappActivityimport androidosBundleimport androidwidgetTextView
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))

Activity
bull Activity = Screen
bull An app is made up of 1 or more activities
bull Stack of activitiesscreens

bull App-X can activate App-Y component
bull Intent
bull App-X can access App-Y shared data
bull Content Resolver
Activity
HelloWorldActivity
Activity class has functions to handle onCreate onResume onPause etc
Activity
bull Launch an Activity by calling startActivity(intent)
Launch a known ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(this SignInActivityclass)startActivity(intent)
Launch a system ActivityIntent intent = new Intent(IntentACTION_SEND)intentputExtra(IntentEXTRA_EMAIL recipientArray)startActivity(intent)
Activity
bull Activity must be declared in AndroidManifestxml
ltmanifest gt ltapplication gt ltactivity androidname=HelloWorldActivity gt ltapplication gt ltmanifest gt
HelloWorldActivity is shorthand for comjust2ushelloworldHelloWorldActivity
Service
bull Service runs in the background even when user is not interacting with your app
bull Service or Thread
bull To start call startService()
bull Similar to Activity has its lifecycle and various event callbacks
ContentProvider
bull A way to share data across applications including apps such as phonebook calendar etc
bull You can access the phonebook data using a ContentResolver
bull Have query insert delete methods (SQLite)
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver()crquery(ldquocontentandroidproviderContactsPhonesCONTACT_URIrdquo

reslayoutmainxml
Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(Rlayoutmain)
setContentView() inflate mainxml and set the views
The way of Code
package comjust2ushelloandroid
import androidappActivityimport androidosBundleimport androidwidgetTextView
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity Called when the activity is first created Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) superonCreate(savedInstanceState) TextView textview = new TextView(this) textviewsetText(Hello Android) setContentView(textview)
Creating a TextView and set the text
Similarly to the way of XML setContentView()
Preferences
bull The easiest way to store information
bull NOT only store preferencessettings but also arbitrary key-value pairs
bull SharedPreference class
bull getBoolean setBoolean etc
public class Calc extends Activity public static final String PREFS_NAME = MyPrefsFile
Override protected void onCreate(Bundle state) superonCreate(state)
Restore preferences SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) boolean silent = settingsgetBoolean(silentMode false) setSilent(silent)
Override protected void onStop() superonStop()
We need an Editor object to make preference changes All objects are from androidcontextContext SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME 0) SharedPreferencesEditor editor = settingsedit() editorputBoolean(silentMode mSilentMode)
Commit the edits editorcommit()
Preferences
Network
bull Connect to web services over HTTP
bull Permission needed in Manifestltuses-permission androidname=androidpermissionINTERNET gt
bull A few different ways to connect
bull HttpClient is most robust
Network - GET
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpGet request = new HttpGet(httpwwwmyservercomscript1php)
Execute HTTP GET request and get responseHttpResponse response = clientexecute(request)InputStream is = responsegetEntity()getContent()BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)) Do what you need with content StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer()String line = String NL = SystemgetProperty(lineseparator)while ((line = inreadLine()) = null)
sbappend(line + NL)inclose()String content = sbtoString()
Do what you need with content
Network - POST
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient()HttpPost request = new HttpPost(httpwwwmyservercomlogin_scriptphp)
Add your dataListltNameValuePairgt nameValuePairs = new ArrayListltNameValuePairgt(2)nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(username samwize))nameValuePairsadd(new BasicNameValuePair(password 123456))requestsetEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs))
