I understand that animated gifs are currently not supported in the webkit port for Android. Can this functionality be enabled by turning on the compiler directive ANDROID_ANIMATED_GIF (webcore\platform\graphics\android\)? Will this work or are any other changes needed? Any caveats. Thanks, Chris --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~
Hi all, I'm trying to port Android to sh arch. When I try to build libmtdutils module I obtain this error: u...@user-desktop:~/ANDROID$ make libmtdutils TARGET_ARCH=sh -j4 showcommands ============================================ PLATFORM_VERSION_CODENAME=REL PLATFORM_VERSION=1.6 TARGET_PRODUCT=generic TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT=eng TARGET_SIMULATOR= TARGET_BUILD_TYPE=release TARGET_ARCH=sh HOST_ARCH=x86 HOST_OS=linux HOST_BUILD_TYPE=release BUILD_ID=Donut ============================================ build/core/copy_headers.mk:15: warning: overriding commands for target `out/target/product/generic/obj/include/libpv/getactualaacconfig.h' build/core/copy_headers.mk:15: warning: ignoring old commands for target `out/target/product/generic/obj/include/libpv/ getactualaacconfig.h' make: *** No rule to make target `libmtdutils'. Stop. I tried to modify the bootable/recovery/mtdutils/Android.mk file (it compiles only for arm) but with no results... Can you give me some hints about it? If I avoid to build libmtdutils, I face errors with mtd-functions in the complete build $ make TARGET_ARCH=sh I'll be grateful for any help.

2. Weird behavior of java.util.Preferences
Hi all!
My app needs to save its state before being killed, and since that
state is really small (one Long), I've decided to use
java.util.Preferences. I use it like the way I would be using in any
Java application (and never had problems), though I am not sure this
is the correct way here on Android platform:
private static final Preferences prefs = Preferences.userNodeForPackage
(WordChoice.class);
I update preferences in onPause() method, to ensure that data is
always persisted no matter how my app ends:
Here is that fragment of code:
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
prefs.putLong("currIndex", somePositiveValue);
}
Everything works perfectly on emulator, but when I install my app onto
my g1 phone, the preferences doesn't work the way they are supposed to
work - it seems that SOMETHING clears them every time my application
is killed.
Here is the example of output of my application:
(FIRST STARTUP)
no entry found for currIndex
(STOPPED)
(STARTUP)
currIndex = 25
(STOPPED)
(STARTUP)
currIndex = 83
(KILLED i.e. from ASTRO or via terminal-emulator or killed by system)
(STARTUP)
no entry found for currIndex <-- what the ...??
I really don't understand this behavior. I also tried flushing the
preferences but doesn't help.
Then I changed the code in onPause() method so that it first persists
data then calls super.onPause() but then the even worse scenario
occurs - preferences are cleared on random (about 50% to be cleared)
no matter how my app ends.
Please help me by giving, I have already spend a few hours struggling
with this issue with no success.
I would be grateful if someone posted an example of how to permanently
store that a single "Long" and how retrieve it, so that it works when
an application is killed.
