Sorry, there is currently no API in the NDK for working with surfaces.

Test code should use Instrumentation, which allows you to inject your code
into the application and control it through the methods there.

Um, don't do this. Whatever you are doing this for, you can be sure it will
break in the future.

Re: What is the best way to implement dynamic textures in OpenGL ES?

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the suggestion about GLUtils.

I went back & found that the TriangleRenderer.java example had been
updated some time ago to use this method which is as you say is *much*
more efficient (faster) & simpler than using a ByteBuffer and doing
the color conversions.

( It pays to revisit the examples with new sdk releases ! )

Hey folks,

A few weeks ago I posted a view I was working on and in that time I
have improved the view a lot, but I've been asked to add a new
features of zooming into the image.

The view is a custom image viewer that allows large images (such as
640x1000) to be loaded, and the user to scroll around using either the

Try getting rid of android:process=":remote".

AlarmManager nothing happening

2009-07-03T22:33:26Z

I've been modifying things ALL DAY trying to get this to work, please
help.

I have a broadcast receiver that recieves a "boot completed" signal.
the onReceive method works!... well at least it sends output to the
log.

THE PROBLEM is that that method is responsible for creating a
AlarmService, to start call a different class every minute. That other

Re: Register Receiver to Listen for Application Update

2009-07-03T22:19:14Z

Is this even possible?

I have apps that deal with alarms and notifications, both of which are
canceled/removed when on updates the app. To combat this, I currently
have my reboot receiver firing at every main-activity onCreate().
Suffice to say, this is undesirable.

I'd like to implement a receiver that listens for an application

Hello,

I have another quick question. Does your application still work with

Thanks.

Re: Camera in portrait mode

2009-07-03T21:01:59Z

Hi,

There is no way of getting the camera preview in portrait mode ( as
you probably already know) and its very ( very) slow to rotate the
preview image. The only option is to run the app in landscape mode and
rotate the view that you want to overlay onto the preview by 90
degrees. To do this override the onDraw() method of the parent view

Hello,

Thanks. It's as I hoped. Can you sketch for me the approach you used
to implement multiple overlays?
