MissingManifestResourceException on a bar code reader device

I have a problem in my application. I am developing software for a Windows CE .NET device. It is a bar code reader and I have the library that includes the control of the bar code scanner
When I try to create an object of ScannerServicesDriver type I get a MissingManifestResourceException and no additional information is given.
I don´t understand why can I create the object scanner1 correctly and not the scannerServicesDriver1.
The path of reference to the library is correct
This is the code I have:
public class FormA200 : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
...
private PsionTeklogix.Barcode.ScannerServices.ScannerServicesDriver scannerServicesDriver1;
private PsionTeklogix.Barcode.Scanner scanner1;
public FormA200()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void InitializeComponent()
{
System.Resources.ResourceManager resources = new System.Resources.ResourceManager(typeof(FormA200));
this.lCant = new System.Windows.Forms.Label();
.....
this.scanner1 = new PsionTeklogix.Barcode.Scanner();
//at this point the exception happens!
this.scannerServicesDriver1 = new PsionTeklogix.Barcode.ScannerServices.ScannerServicesDriver();
// scanner1
this.scanner1.Driver = this.scannerServicesDriver1;
this.scanner1.ScanCompleteEvent += new PsionTeklogix.Barcode.ScanCompleteEventHandler(this.scanner1_ScanCompleteEvent);
this.Load += new System.EventHandler(this.FormA200_Load);
}
private void scanner1_ScanCompleteEvent(object sender, PsionTeklogix.Barcode.ScanCompleteEventArgs e)
{
}
}
Any ideas??

[Q] Writing to your Apps data folder

im trying to write a Serializable Object to the data folder of my app. I was using this code to specify the path to the file and write the Serializable Object
Code:
/**
* writeMissedCalls()
*
* @param context - the Context of the application
* @return if the missedCalls were written to file successfully
*/
public static boolean writeMissedCalls(Context context) {
String filename = context.getApplicationInfo().dataDir + "/" + MCWUtils.MCW_DATA_FILE;
FileOutputStream fos;
ObjectOutputStream out;
try {
fos = context.openFileOutput(filename, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
out = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);
out.writeObject(MissedCallWidget.missedCalls);
out.close(); }
catch (FileNotFoundException e) { return false; }
catch (IOException e) { return false; }
return true;
}
when i try to write this Object in the onDisabled() of my AppWidgetProvider class i get an error of this sort
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start receiver com.tsb.fistfulofneurons.missedcallwidget.MissedCallWidget: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: File /data/data/com.tsb.fistfulofneurons.missedcallwidget/missed_calls.dat contains a path separator
do i not need to specify the path to my apps data folder? will the openFileOutput() specify the path to the data for me?
so instead of passing the path "/data/data/com.tsb.fistfulofneurons.missedcallwidget/missed_calls.dat" just pass "missed_calls.dat"?
thanks!

I've not tried to open a file in this manner, but I would guess that it defaults to the apps data directory. Why not give it a try and see?

yea it appears to default to the /data/data folder for your package. the documentation appears to be lacking. thanks

Interested in toggling a value in the build.prop

So in my toolkit, id like to design an activity where I could point it towards certain lines in the build.prop to allow a user to easily toggle, for instance this line
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
So, in the layout xml, lets say it had "Enable Nav Bar" and a "Toggle Button" for on/off
Where would i start in developing such a feature?

You create a ToggleButton and whenever it is clicked, you change the line.
What is your problem?

My concerns are wouldnt I need to add ro permissions on the prop before toggling and a reboot action to apply

I think your device needs to be rooted to be able to write to the build.prop file. You do not need root access to read it though

I'm from mobile and i can't post some code but i will give you some hints
To edit build.prop programmatically first you ne ed to be rooted then you can use the shell command "sed" to exchange values. Take a look at AOKP settings source on github and look for density changer class
If you want to import various build properties you can use fileinputstream and read the file line by line then let the app create listview custom items for every line in the file (you need a custom adapter) .
Sorry if this post it's not really useful but i will edit this when at PC

I Wrote something up but I keep getting force closes "Not a java code monkey yet, still learning" and Ill post here what I have when I get to my pc later. Maybe you can see what Im missing or did wrong. What I did is I have a preference screen similiar to AOKP density changer class. What Im going for is a PreferenceList that you click and your values are Enable or Disabled and another preference to reboot to apply settings. Im wanting to allow the user to enable and disable the Navigation Bar by toggling it through the build.prop. If this works, I want to add more toggles custom values like change your phone model, Screen Density, build number, ect; but figured Id start with something simpler first and see if it works.

this is the method you need:
Code:
private void setLcdDensity(int newDensity) {
Helpers.getMount("rw");
new CMDProcessor().su.runWaitFor("busybox sed -i 's|ro.sf.lcd_density=.*|"
+ "ro.sf.lcd_density" + "=" + newDensity + "|' " + "/system/build.prop");
Helpers.getMount("ro");
}
( method took from here : https://github.com/TeamBAKED/packag...aked/romcontrol/fragments/DensityChanger.java )
newDensity is the int/string you let the user set ( you can use a seekbar or a dialog or what you prefer)
you have also CMDProcessor().su.runWaitFor : just use the classes you can find here : https://github.com/TeamBAKED/packag...11bca71808c9143/src/com/baked/romcontrol/util
just add these classes in your project ( these are to simplify your life when you need to use android terminal [ remember to give credits on your app! ] )
Now, you can use various types of views and methods to show to the user all the available props:
- manually add every view for every line in your build.prop ( this will probably limit the compatibility with other devices and make your app "laggy" due to "gazilions" views )
- use a blank linearLayout and inflate a "row view" for every line in build.prop:
read file line by line and import every line in an ArrayList:
Code:
ArrayList<String> Tokens = new ArrayList<String>();
try {
// Open the file that is the first
// command line parameter
FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream("/system/build.prop");
// Get the object of DataInputStream
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(fstream);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
String strLine;
// Read File Line By Line
while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
strLine = strLine.trim();
if ((strLine.length()!=0)) {
String[] names = strLine.split("\\s+");
Tokens.add(names[0]);
}
}
for (String s : Tokens) {
//System.out.println(s);
//Log.d("NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN", s);
}
// Close the input stream
in.close();
} catch (Exception e) {// Catch exception if any
System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
}
names = new String[Tokens.size()-1];
names = Tokens.toArray(names);
ArrayList<String> value = new ArrayList<String>();
try {
// Open the file that is the first
// command line parameter
FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream("/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table");
// Get the object of DataInputStream
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(fstream);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
String strLine;
// Read File Line By Line
while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
strLine = strLine.trim();
if ((strLine.length()!=0)) {
String[] val = strLine.split("\\s+");
value.add(val[1]);
}
}
for (String s : value) {
//System.out.println(s);
//Log.d("NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN", s);
}
// Close the input stream
in.close();
} catch (Exception e) {// Catch exception if any
System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
}
values = new String[value.size()-1];
values = value.toArray(values);
LineNumberReader lnr = null;
try {
lnr = new LineNumberReader(new FileReader(new File("/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table")));
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
lnr.skip(Long.MAX_VALUE);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
int num = lnr.getLineNumber();
Log.d("LINES", ""+num);
int i = 0;
//now inflate a specific view for every line
// you can also filter every item for example by reading the string and inflating a different layout using an if statement
for (String s : names) {
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)this.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
final View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.uvrow, null, true);
TextView text0 = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.text0);
ImageButton back0 = (ImageButton) v.findViewById(R.id.back0);
final EditText edit0 = (EditText) v.findViewById(R.id.edit0);
ImageButton fwd0 = (ImageButton) v.findViewById(R.id.fwd0);
text0.setText(s);
parentGroup.addView(v);
edit0.setText(values[i]);
/*
* if you need to set listeners and actions insert them inside this loop!
*/
}
if you need more informations, take a look at my code on github ( was my first "really useful" app ): https://github.com/cesco89/CustomSettings/blob/master/src/com/cesco/customsettings/UVTable.java
it's not perfect, could be tricky, but i can't post all the code here

How to record the Android Touch event?

I have to record the touch event of any android (.apk) application. For that I have created the .jar(Library) file which is responsible to record touch event when user press any control. This .jar will be injected with any .apk file.
For achieve the above things I have follow the below step.
1)I have created application with only one button name App.apk.
2)Also Create the another library project called Test.jar
3)Give the dependency of Test.jar to App.apk.
Now I want send same event to test.jar. I have write below code in App.apk activity
@override
public void onResume()
{
super.onResume();
Test.Event.MyHook(this);
}
@override
public void onPause()
{
super.onPause();
Test.Event.MyUnHook(this);
}
@override
public boolean dispatchKeyEvent(android.view.KeyEvent event)
{
Test.Event.MyEvent(event);
return super.dispatchKeyEvent(event);
}
Can u suggest the way to get button click event from App.apk to Test.jar ?
Thanks

Seems rather fishy why you'd have to do that, but let's roll with it...^^
TLDR: in pure java, using standard APIs or even reflection or root, you can't.
You could use the android-event-injector project (which is a C++/JNI library) : https://code.google.com/p/android-event-injector/
It provides methods to listen to all input events, something like that (this will send all the results to logcat):
PHP:
public void StartEventMonitor() {
m_bMonitorOn = true;
Thread b = new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
while (m_bMonitorOn) {
for (InputDevice idev:events.m_Devs) {
// Open more devices to see their messages
if (idev.getOpen() && (0 == idev.getPollingEvent())) {
final String line = idev.getName()+
":" + idev.getSuccessfulPollingType()+
" " + idev.getSuccessfulPollingCode() +
" " + idev.getSuccessfulPollingValue();
Log.d(LT, "Event:"+line);
}
}
}
}
});
b.start();
}
You can read more here: http://www.pocketmagic.net/2013/01/programmatically-injecting-events-on-android-part-2/
However, you might also be able to do that using the Xposed framework and finding a hook into the actual framework class for dispatchKeyEvent if it's the event you want to intercept.
I've never with Xposed so I can't really help you with the implementation, though, but it might be something to look into.

Split-Screen Or Multi-Window introduced on Android 7 (API 24) for All Android devices.
Samsung added new Software features on Galaxy Note 8 that allows users to select pair of apps to open in simultaneously in split screen. Check it out
This Tutorial is about How to create an app to open two apps in multi-window mode.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But If you want to configure your current app to support multi-window you need to read this documentation.
Android 7.0 adds support for displaying more than one app at the same time. On handheld devices, two apps can run side-by-side or one-above-the-other in split-screen mode. On TV devices, apps can use picture-in-picture mode to continue video playback while users are interacting with another app.
If your app targets Android 7.0 (API level 24) or higher, you can configure how your app handles multi-window display. For example, you can specify your activity's minimum allowable dimensions. You can also disable multi-window display for your app, ensuring that the system only shows your app in full-screen mode.

System.out.println("onServiceConnected");
//system will call this whenever you turn on Accessibility for this app

}
- Right Click on /res/... folder, create another folder and name it xml then you will have /res/xml/...
Then right click on /xml/... folder and create an xml file and choose a name (split.xml)
This xml file contains configuration of AccessibilityService.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<accessibility-service
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:accessibilityEventTypes="[COLOR="red"]typeAllMask[/COLOR]" // all mask means to get all event which most of time you don't need it.
android:accessibilityFeedbackType="feedbackGeneric"
android:accessibilityFlags="flagRetrieveInteractiveWindows|flagDefault"
android:settingsActivity="com.example.android.globalactionbarservice"
android:description="@string/describe_what_will_you_do" //here you must describe to user what will you do with this special permission />
- Open AndroidManifest.xml to define AccessbilityService & Add required permissions
Inside <application/> tag add this.
Code:
<service
android:name="com.example.android.split.SplitScreenService" //change it to your package name and class
android:permission="android.permission.BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService"/>
</intent-filter>
<meta-data
android:name="android.accessibilityservice"
android:resource="@xml/split"/> //add name of configuration file split.xml
</service>
Note that this app will only work when user enables Accessibility for it manually.
So first thing on Main Activity of the app must be to check this and redirect users to Accessibility Setting.
Open Main Activity of app and @oncreate() add this
Code:
final AccessibilityManager accessibilityManager = (AccessibilityManager)getSystemService(ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE);
if([COLOR="Red"]!accessibilityManager.isEnabled()[/COLOR]){
Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
return;
}
after this app should enter split-screen & try to open another apps inside split-screen.
that s why I set BroadcastReceiver to send proper action in right time after entering split-screen mode.
So to perform this app must have proper BroadcastReceiver & AccessibilityEvent listener.
//Custom BroadcastReceiver in activity
Code:
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle Saved){
super.onCreate(Saved);
final AccessibilityManager accessibilityManager = (AccessibilityManager)getSystemService(ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE);
if(!accessibilityManager.isEnabled()){
Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
return;
}
else {
IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter();
intentFilter.addAction("[B]open_split[/B]");
BroadcastReceiver broadcastReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if(intent.getAction().equals("open_split")){
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Intent spliteOne = [COLOR="seagreen"]getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage[/COLOR]("com.whatsapp");// change to whatever you want
spliteOne.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
spliteOne.setFlags(
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCH_ADJACENT |
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK |
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK);
final Intent spliteTwo = [COLOR="SeaGreen"]getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage[/COLOR]("com.google.android.youtube");[B]3*[/B]// change to whatever you want
spliteTwo.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
spliteTwo.setFlags(
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCH_ADJACENT | [B]1*[/B]
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK |
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK);
startActivity(spliteOne);
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() { [B]2*[/B]
@Override
public void run() {
startActivity(spliteTwo);
}
}, 200);
}
}, 500);
}
}
};
registerReceiver(broadcastReceiver, intentFilter);
}
}
1* These are required flags to open an activity inside split-screen If the split screen already available.
Code:
.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCH_ADJACENT | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK);
2* I set some delays for smoother performance of app and system & allow system to completely enter split-screen mode.
3* I set YouTube and WhatsApp for examples. you can set another apps or let users to select from a list. But there might be problem with some apps to enter split-screen mode cause they are not compatible. system will try to force them which is successful most of the time.
//AccessibilityEvent Listener in AccessibilityService
Code:
@Override
public void onAccessibilityEvent(AccessibilityEvent event) {
switch (event.getEventType()){
case AccessibilityEvent.[B]TYPE_WINDOW_STATE_CHANGED[/B]:
//system will call this event whenever something change open or close
//so app need to identify when to perform action to avoid lots of conflict

Split-Screen Or Multi-Window introduced on Android 7 (API 24) for All Android devices.
Samsung added new Software features on Galaxy Note 8 that allows users to select pair of apps to open in simultaneously in split screen. Check it out
But If you want to configure your current app to support multi-window you need to read this documentation.
# Let Start #​
- Right Click on package name of app & Create a Java Class for AccessibilityService
Code:
public class [COLOR="royalblue"]SplitScreenService [/COLOR]extends [B]AccessibilityService [/B]{
@Override
protected void onServiceConnected() {
System.out.println("onServiceConnected");
//system will call this whenever you turn on Accessibility for this app
}
@Override
public void onAccessibilityEvent(AccessibilityEvent event) {
switch (event.getEventType()){
case AccessibilityEvent.TYPE_WINDOW_STATE_CHANGED:
//this is a sample event that you can perform some action whenever it called
//and i will create split-screen here
[COLOR="DarkRed"]performGlobalAction(GLOBAL_ACTION_TOGGLE_SPLIT_SCREEN);[/COLOR]
//this is how you can enter split-screen mode
break;
}
}
@Override
public void onInterrupt() {
System.out.println(">>> onInterrupt");
}
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
System.out.println("onCreate");
}
@Override
public void onDestroy(){
super.onDestroy();
}
}
- Right Click on /res/... folder, create another folder and name it xml then you will have /res/xml/...
Then right click on /xml/... folder and create an xml file and choose a name (split.xml)
This xml file contains configuration of AccessibilityService.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<accessibility-service
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:accessibilityEventTypes="[COLOR="red"]typeAllMask[/COLOR]" // all mask means to get all event which most of time you don't need it.
android:accessibilityFeedbackType="feedbackGeneric"
android:accessibilityFlags="flagRetrieveInteractiveWindows|flagDefault"
android:settingsActivity="com.example.android.globalactionbarservice"
android:description="@string/describe_what_will_you_do" //here you must describe to user what will you do with this special permission />
- Open AndroidManifest.xml to define AccessbilityService & Add required permissions
Inside <application/> tag add this.
Code:
<service
android:name="com.example.android.split.SplitScreenService" //change it to your package name and class
android:permission="android.permission.BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService"/>
</intent-filter>
<meta-data
android:name="android.accessibilityservice"
android:resource="@xml/split"/> //add name of configuration file split.xml
</service>
Note that this app will only work when user enables Accessibility for it manually.
So first thing on Main Activity of the app must be to check this and redirect users to Accessibility Setting.
Open Main Activity of app and @oncreate() add this
Code:
final AccessibilityManager accessibilityManager = (AccessibilityManager)getSystemService(ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE);
if([COLOR="Red"]!accessibilityManager.isEnabled()[/COLOR]){
Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
return;
}
after this app should enter split-screen & try to open another apps inside split-screen.
that s why I set BroadcastReceiver to send proper action in right time after entering split-screen mode.
So to perform this app must have proper BroadcastReceiver & AccessibilityEvent listener.
//Custom BroadcastReceiver in activity
Code:
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle Saved){
super.onCreate(Saved);
final AccessibilityManager accessibilityManager = (AccessibilityManager)getSystemService(ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE);
if(!accessibilityManager.isEnabled()){
Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
return;
}
else {
IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter();
intentFilter.addAction("[B]open_split[/B]");
BroadcastReceiver broadcastReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if(intent.getAction().equals("open_split")){
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Intent spliteOne = [COLOR="seagreen"]getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage[/COLOR]("com.whatsapp");// change to whatever you want
spliteOne.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
spliteOne.setFlags(
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCH_ADJACENT |
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK |
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK);
final Intent spliteTwo = [COLOR="SeaGreen"]getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage[/COLOR]("com.google.android.youtube");[B]3*[/B]// change to whatever you want
spliteTwo.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
spliteTwo.setFlags(
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCH_ADJACENT | [B]1*[/B]
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK |
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK);
startActivity(spliteOne);
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() { [B]2*[/B]
@Override
public void run() {
startActivity(spliteTwo);
}
}, 200);
}
}, 500);
}
}
};
registerReceiver(broadcastReceiver, intentFilter);
}
}
1* These are required flags to open an activity inside split-screen If the split screen already available.
Code:
.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCH_ADJACENT | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK);
2* I set some delays for smoother performance of app and system & allow system to completely enter split-screen mode.
3* I set YouTube and WhatsApp for examples. you can set another apps or let users to select from a list. But there might be problem with some apps to enter split-screen mode cause they are not compatible. system will try to force them which is successful most of the time.
//AccessibilityEvent Listener in AccessibilityService
Code:
@Override
public void onAccessibilityEvent(AccessibilityEvent event) {
switch (event.getEventType()){
case AccessibilityEvent.[B]TYPE_WINDOW_STATE_CHANGED[/B]:
//system will call this event whenever something change open or close
//so app need to identify when to perform action to avoid lots of conflict
//event.getClassName() is name of the class that send this event which is OpenActivities for my app
if(event.getClassName().equals("com.example.android.split.OpenActivities")){
performGlobalAction([COLOR="RoyalBlue"]GLOBAL_ACTION_TOGGLE_SPLIT_SCREEN[/COLOR]);[B]1*[/B]//this is the function to ask system to enter to split-screen
[B]sendBroadcast[/B](new Intent("[B]open_split[/B]"));[B]2*[/B]//to send action after asking system to enter split-screen
}
}
break;
}
}
1* System going to enter Split-Screen mode.
2* App will send action to activity to open other apps with proper Intent.Flags... in split-screen.
