I dont understand it at all
I dont know what is the invalidate(); command is for

But thnx for the tutorial any way

I wanna ask something else I wanna use customView of the pizza in xml file defintion when i do so it says that error Exception:Binary XML file line #23:Error Inflating class SeekTimer.

SeekTimer is the Custom view. and line 23 is:
<SeekTimer android:id="@+id/seek_bar"
android:layout_width="50px"
android:layout_height="50px"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"/>

If anybody can help to remove that error i would be gratefull

Hi amidos2006.

When you use your custom view in XML, you need to implement the constructor that inflate the view based on the xml params... does your SeekTimer classs implement this constructor ?

Thanks it works
Thanks for your help

It works except for the NotificationManager. As in m5, you should change the following code

to

in order to make it work.

Cheers,

I rebuild both classes. Now they work for sdk 0.9

Thanks Txorl

Thanks for the tutorial 'PlusMinus'. Also, thanks for the other tutorials on this forum, please keep them coming!

I have a question regarding this code: You posted a screen shot of "Notification even when PizzaTimer was 'sent to background' (BUT not yet killed)". How did you send the app to the background?

Thanks,

Hi,

I get the following compile errors:

1. i get a bunch of R.xxxx.xxx cannot be resolved. Where can I get the R file generated?
2. how to change the drawArc() with the right parameters?
3. how to change the
@Override
public boolean onMenuItemSelected(int featureId, Item item) {
...
}

Thank you.

It would be far better to use the system clock (that's what it's there for). To do this you would have your thread regularly polling System.currentTimeMillis(). Also, I would put the thread in PizzaTimer and get rid of the (IMO) clunky message passing. It's less code, it provides a general event loop that could be extended with other features (i.e. an animation) and IMO it's cleaner.

Quoted for truth. The timer usage in the tutorial is really bad programming practice, even if it doesn't matter for a pizza timer if the actual time is off by several seconds at the end.

Hi everyone,
I am very new to this android aplication development . I started to learn how to create an application .I found the pizza application and started working on it .
But I am not sure what are the values for

nm.notifyWithText(PIZZA_NOTIFICATION_ID, getText(R.string.pizza_notification_text),
NotificationManager.LENGTH_LONG, null);

I get error on NotificationManager.LENGTH_LONG cannot be resolved.
and I get error for item also.
public boolean onMenuItemSelected(int featureId, Item item) {
I tem cannot be resolved of type

and one more question what are the R.string values . Do I have to create the string variables with some values.
in string.xml

Please help me .
