Flip Bitmap in android

Hello Friends today we will see how to flip bitmap in android.

//# create a enum flip type parameter.
enum FLIP{HORIZONTAL,VERTICAL};
 // flip function with type
public static Bitmap flip(Bitmap bitmap, FLIP type){
Matrix matrix =new Matrix();
if(type==FLIP.HORIZONTAL){
              matrix.preScale(-1.0f, 1.0f);
}else if(type==FLIP.VERTICAL){
              matrix.preScale(1.0f, -1.0f);
}
return Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight(), matrix, true);
}
 // calling flip function and get flipped bitmap
Bitmap flippedBitmap=flip(bitmap, FLIP.HORIZONTAL);

How to get List of all installed application from device

Hello Friends, We will see  how to  get list of all installed application from android device programmatically,

We call a method of PackageManager like

List<PackageInfo> packs = pm.getInstalledPackages(0);

It returns a list of packageInfo object. Now we will strore our app list in ArrayList.

As shown below.


/**
 * 
 * @param context
 * @param getSysPackages
 * @return List of installed application from the device
 */
private ArrayList<PInfo> getApps(Context context, boolean getSysPackages) {
           final PackageManager pm = context.getPackageManager();

          ArrayList<PInfo> res = new ArrayList<PInfo>();
        
          List<PackageInfo> packs = pm.getInstalledPackages(0);
         for (int i = 0; i < packs.size(); i++) {
                PackageInfo p = packs.get(i);

                if ((!getSysPackages) && (p.versionName == null)) {
                     continue;
                }

         ApplicationInfo appinfo = p.applicationInfo;

         if(((appinfo.flags & ApplicationInfo.FLAG_SYSTEM) != (getSysPackages   ? 1: ))))
                continue;

         if (pm.getLaunchIntentForPackage(p.packageName) == null) {
                 continue;
         }

         PInfo info = new PInfo();
         info.appname= p.applicationInfo.loadLabel(pm).toString();
         info.pname = p.packageName;
         info.icon = p.applicationInfo.loadIcon(pm);
        res.add(newInfo);
    }

    Collections.sort(res, new AlPhabeticalComparator());

    return res;
}

Now we have a list, we will just sort our array in alphabetical order using Java Collection API.
For that we require our custom comparator.

Create a Inner static class AlPhabeticalComarator

public static class AlPhabeticalComparator implements Comparator<PInfo> {
     @Override
     public int compare(PInfo info1, PInfo info2) {
          return info1.appname.toUpperCase().compareTo(info2.appname.toUpperCase());
     }
}

To store information of each application we require a Class Object Create as follows

Create a inner class as PInfo.


          /**
          * Static Inner class to hold application info
          **/
          public static class PInfo {                 public String appname = "";
                 public String pname = "";
                 public Drawable icon;

How to create auto start android application example

If you want to make your application auto start after device boot finish.
you need to see if device boot completed this is done by BroadcastReceiver let see directly steps for this.

Step 1) Create a class BootUpReceiver.



package com.android;


import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class BootUpReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver{


@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

   Intent i = new Intent(context, StartupActivity.class);
            i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
            context.startActivity(i);

}
}


Step 2) Add permissions in Manifest.



<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />

Step 3) Add receiver entry in Manifest.



  <receiver android:enabled="true" android:name=".BootUpReceiver"
        android:permission="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </receiver>





Complete Manifest File





<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.android"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
    <application
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
         <receiver android:enabled="true" android:name=".BootUpReceiver"
        android:permission="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </receiver>
     
        <activity
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:name=".StartupActivity" >
               </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

Step 4) My activity which I want to show to user when my application starts.
this will be your welcome activity.



package com.android;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;


public class StartupActivity extends Activity {



/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);


}
}

sqlite example in android

Dear friends we will see how to create a sample project demo using SQLite.
SQLite is a software library that implements a self-contained, serverless, zero-configuration, transactional SQL database engine. SQLite is the most widely deployed SQL database engine in the world.

steps to create  a demo on sqlite.

1. copy below code of DatabaseHelper.java class.

/**
 *
 */
package com.android.sqlite.db;

import android.content.Context;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory;

/**
 * @author Sandeep
 * @since 18 Nov 2011
 */
public class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {

    private static final String DB_PATH = "/data/data/com.android.sqlite/databases/";
    private static final String DB_NAME = "example.db";

    /**
     * @param context
     * @param name
     * @param factory
     * @param version
     */
    public DatabaseHelper(Context context, String name, CursorFactory factory,
            int version) {
        super(context, name, factory, version);
    }

    @Override
    public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {

        // TBL_CONTACT
        String query = "CREATE TABLE CONTACT "+" "+" (ID INTEGER, FName TEXT, LName TEXT, Contact_no TEXT);";

        db.execSQL(query);


    }

    @Override
    public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {

    }

    /**
     * Check if the database already exist to avoid
     * re-copying the file each time you open the application.
     * @return true if it exists, false if it doesn't
     */
    public boolean checkDataBase(){

        SQLiteDatabase checkDB = null;

        try{
            String myPath = DB_PATH + DB_NAME;
            checkDB = SQLiteDatabase.openDatabase(myPath, null, SQLiteDatabase.OPEN_READONLY);


        }catch(SQLiteException e){
            //database does't exist yet.
        }

        if(checkDB != null){
            checkDB.close();
        }

        return checkDB != null ? true : false;
    }
}


2. Now create a class DBOperation.java which contain all insert,delete functions.

package com.android.sqlite.db;


import com.android.sqlite.newcontact;
import com.android.sqlite.welcome;

import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;

public class DbOperation {
    DatabaseHelper dbHelper = null;

    public DbOperation() {
        dbHelper = welcome.dbHelper;
    }

    /* Add contact */
    public void addContact(String fname, String lname, String number) {
        SQLiteDatabase db = dbHelper.getWritableDatabase();

        ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
        cv.put("FName", fname);
        cv.put("LName", lname);
        cv.put("Contact_no", number);
        db.insert("CONTACT", null, cv);
        db.close();
    }

    public String[][] getAll(String query){
        String[][] array = null;
        SQLiteDatabase db = null;
        Cursor cursor = null;
       
        try {
            db = dbHelper.getReadableDatabase();
            cursor = db.rawQuery(query, null);
           
            if(!cursor.isFirst()){
                cursor.moveToFirst();
            }
           
            int rowCount = cursor.getCount();
            int columnCount = cursor.getColumnCount();
           
            array = new String[rowCount][columnCount];
           
            int index =0;
           
            if(cursor.isFirst()){
                do{
                    for(int j=0;j<columnCount;j++){
                        array[index][j]= cursor.getString(j);
                        System.out.println(cursor.getColumnName(j)+":"+cursor.getString(j));
                        System.out.println();
                    }
                    index++;
                }while(cursor.moveToNext());
            }
           
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }finally{
            if(cursor!=null)
            cursor.close();
            if(db!=null)
            db.close();
        }
        return array;
    }
}


3. Now copy these code in main.java
package com.android.sqlite;



import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;

import com.android.sqlite.db.DatabaseHelper;
import com.android.sqlite.db.DbOperation;

/**
 *
 * @author Sandeep Sharma
 *
 */
public class welcome extends Activity {
   
    public static DatabaseHelper dbHelper=null;
    public DbOperation dboper=null;
    private boolean dbExist;
    private EditText fname,lname,contact;
    Button newcontact;
   
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.lead_list);
       
       
      //---create db ---
        dbHelper = new DatabaseHelper(this,"example.db",
                null,1);
        dbExist = dbHelper.checkDataBase();
        dboper=new DbOperation();
       
        fname=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.edt_Fname);
        lname=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.edt_Lname);
        contact=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.edt_contact);
       
        newcontact=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
       
        newcontact.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
           
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
           
                dboper.addContact(fname.getText().toString()   , lname.getText().toString(), contact.getText().toString());
               
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Record Saved!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
               
               }
        });      
      }
}
 

4. Overwrite your main.xml with below code.
<?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:id="@+id/lbl_Fname"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/FName"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
   
    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/edt_Fname"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
       
        android:inputType="textPersonName" >

        <requestFocus />
    </EditText>

        <TextView
        android:id="@+id/lbl_Lname"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/LName"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />

   
    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/edt_Lname"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="textPersonName" >

        <requestFocus />
    </EditText>
       
        <TextView
        android:id="@+id/lbl_contact"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/Contact"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />

   
    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/edt_contact"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="textPersonName" >

        <requestFocus />
    </EditText>

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Save" android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:layout_margin="30dip"/>
       
</LinearLayout>


Now try to run code. If any variable declaration missing please correct it.

Now once you get these demo working you can find sqlite database file.

to get sqlite database file switch to ddms perspective. open file explorer you can see your database file in path below.

How to get the sqlite path, in asset folder

Dear all.
If there is a situation that you have to keep your database file in assets folder and you require path for the sqlite file.
Solution: Then you need to copy that file to data/data/yourapplication/database the folder where your applications database are stored.
But Always keep in mind that database file(i.e *.sqlite) can have only  1 mb size. If still you want to keep your larger size (>1 mb) then there is a trick. make the extension of database file as jpeg So your assets folder allow you to keep jpeg file of any size.

Below is the code which can be used to copy database file from assets and pastes in application database folder
So then you can easily get the sqlite path.


  

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;

    this.myContext = context;
 }  

/**

public void createDataBase() throws IOException{
    // for first database;
    boolean dbExist = checkDataBase(DB_NAME);
    if(!dbExist){
        try {
            copyDataBase(DB_NAME_MY,DB_NAME);
        } catch (Exception e) {

        int length;
        while ((length = myInput.read(buffer))>0){
            myOutput.write(buffer, 0, length);
        }


        System.out.println("***************************************");
        System.out.println("####### Data base copied ##############");
        System.out.println("***************************************");


    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block

How to copy a file from a directory and move to another directory.

Dear all,
To copy a file from a source directory to destination directory in a android device.

Use below code Snippets.

try {
            File sd = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
         
            if (sd.canWrite()) {
       
                File source= new File(copypath);
                File destination= new File(pastepath);
                if (source.exists()) {
                    FileChannel src = new FileInputStream(source).getChannel();
                    FileChannel dst = new FileOutputStream(destination).getChannel();
                    dst.transferFrom(src, 0, src.size());
                    src.close();
                    dst.close();
                }
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {}
