Another exercise of SurfaceView, in a FrameLaout inside another LinearLayout

May 31, 2010 | By Andro ID

It's another exercise of using FurfaceView in Android.

In the previous exercises "Android SurfaceView" and "Android SurfaceView, run in Thread with sleep()", the layout was simple a FrameLayout composed of a SurfaceView only, setup using programming code setContentView(R.layout.main).

In this exercise, it's a FrameLayout inside a LinearLayout, together with two buttons. The FrameLayout is composed of a SurfaceView. And the layout is defined in main.xml. Both the MySurfaceView(extends SurfaceView) and the MySurfaceThread(extends Thread) are implemented as separated class. When the application is running, there are two buttons over the FrameLayout with SurfaceView, a dot bounce inside the SurfaceView. User can click the first button to make the another button invisible, to change the dimension of the FrameLayout in run-time, and the SurfaceView change also accordingly.



main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<Button
android:id="@+id/showhide"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Toggle The Another Button Show/Hide" />
<Button
android:id="@+id/dummy"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="a Button" />
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<com.exercise.AndroidMergeSurfaceView.MySurfaceView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Further exercise on SurfaceView: SurfaceView overlap with a LinearLayout









It's a bug here!


Pls. refer to the article
"IllegalThreadStateException in LunarLander"
for details.


I'm Sorry about that! ()
