Android

The Applications layer hosts all Android and third-party applications, and several or more third-party applications can execute simultaneously. However, as noted, doing so can shorten battery life.

Beneath the Applications layer is the Android Frameworks layer. This layer consists of Java classes that provide application functions such as window management, window content display, application messaging, and handling phone calls. Obviously the interface Android presents at this level uses the Java programming language, and because the source code is available, you can modify these classes to extend their capabilities or over override their behavior. Note that some of the lower levels in the stack present C++ interfaces.

Next on the software stack comes the Libraries and Runtime layer. The libraries implement 2D and 3D graphics support, along with multimedia content decoding. This layer has engines to support application features, such as a SQLite database engine and WebKit, which handles web content rendering.

Like Java ME, Android strives for hardware independence by using a bytecode interpreter to execute Android applications. However, it doesn't use Sun's JVM, but instead uses its own Dalvik Virtual Machine (DVM). The advantage to Android's use of a different bytecode interpreter is that the DVM was designed so that multiple instances of it can run, each in their own protected memory space, and each executing an application. While this approach offers stability and a robust environment for running multiple applications, it does so at the expense of compatibility with Java ME applications.

The lowest layer of the stack is the Linux kernel. It provides preemptive multitasking and system services such as threads, networking services, and process management. It handles all low-level drivers and manages the device's power




My favorites device right now is the

Samsung Behold II which is now official. It is offered by T-Mobile and run on Android OS. Behold II is also known as SGH-t939 and is quite an impressive phone.

The device has a 3.2″ AMOLED touch-screen, supports 3G networks and T-Mobile promises it will be out before the holidays.

Samsung Behold II will be Samsung’s first Android-powered device with T-Mobile and will have an integrated GPS receiver
so you can take full advantage of Google Maps, and hundreds of others apps that uses location information.

Samsungs Touchwiz 2.0 and Cube Interface is pretty slick and is a great demonstration of what Open GL can deliver on handled handset

How to retrieve XMP Data/Cuepoints using the FLVPlayback

Some users may wonder how they can retrieve the XMP data using the FLVplayback Component.

The best approach is based on the following article

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/flvplayback_fplayer9u3_04.html

and consist of implementing your own Custom callbacks via a custom client class


The FLVPlayback component automatically creates an instance of the class fl.video.VideoPlayerClient, assigns it to the NetStream's client property, and handles all callback messages that come through the NetStream. The default class fl.video.VideoPlayerClient handles only the callbacks onMetaData() and onCuePoint(). Both of these messages generate events (MetadataEvent.METADATE_RECEIVED and MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT) so that you do not need to register a custom class to handle these callbacks.

However, if you do wish to use custom callbacks, you must register a custom client class. You should extend fl.video.VideoPlayerClient to ensure that the onMetaData() and onCuePoint() handling supplied by VideoPlayer and FLVPlayback will continue to work properly.

The requirements for a custom client implementation are as follows:

* The constructor method must take an fl.video.VideoPlayer instance as its only parameter.
* The custom class must include a ready property which should be set to true when all messages expected at the very beginning of the NetStream have been received. This step is necessary because the VideoPlayer class initially hides the video and plays the beginning of the file to access the correct dimensions and duration of the video. It then quickly rewinds the video to the beginning and unhides it. If the rewind occurs before all messages at the very beginning of the file are received by VideoPlayer, there's a chance those messages may never be received.
* It is highly recommended that you declare the custom class as dynamic to avoid encountering runtime errors. Errors may appear if any callbacks are triggered that the class is not set up to handle.
* It is also recommended to extend fl.video.VideoPlayerClient to ensure proper onMetaData() and onCuePoint() handling.

1) Create a new extented Metadata EVENT

Copy IVPEvent.as from the source code of FLVplayback locally under your FLA project under fl\video sub folder

Use the code below to register a new extended event save it in a file ExtendedMetadataEvent.as


package fl.video {

import flash.events.Event;

/**
* Flash^® Player dispatches a ExtentedMetadataEvent object when the user
* requests the FLV/F4V/H264 file's metadata information packet (NetStream.onXMPData)
*
* @langversion 3.0
* @playerversion Flash 9.0.28.0
*/
public class ExtendedMetadataEvent extends fl.video.MetadataEvent {


/**
* Defines the value of the
* type property of a xmpDataReceived event object.
*
* @see FLVPlayback#event:xmpDataReceived xmpDataReceived event
* @eventType xmpDataReceived
* @langversion 3.0
* @playerversion Flash 10.0.0.0
*/
public static const XMPDATA_RECEIVED:String = "xmpDataReceived";


/**
* Creates an Event object that contains information about metadata events.
* Event objects are passed as parameters to event listeners.
*
* @param type The type of the event. Event listeners can access this information
* through the inherited type property. Possible values are MetadataEvent.XMPDATA_RECEIVED.
*
* @param bubbles Determines whether the Event object participates in the bubbling
* stage of the event flow. Event listeners can access this information through the
* inherited bubbles property.
*
* @param cancelable Determines whether the Event object can be canceled. Event listeners can
* access this information through the inherited cancelable property.
*
* @param info Determines the dynamic properties to add.
*
* @param vp Determines the index of the VideoPlayer object.
*
* @langversion 3.0
* @playerversion Flash 9.0.28.0
*
*/
public function ExtendedMetadataEvent( type:String, bubbles:Boolean=false, cancelable:Boolean=false,
info:Object=null, vp:uint=0) {
super(type, bubbles, cancelable);
super.info = info;
super.vp = vp;
}


/**
* @private
*/
override public function clone():Event
{
return new ExtendedMetadataEvent(type, bubbles, cancelable, info, vp);
}

} // class ExtendedMetadataEvent

} // package fl.video



2) Use the code below to register the custom client class:


package {

import fl.video.VideoPlayer;
import fl.video.VideoPlayerClient;
import fl.video.ExtendedMetadataEvent;

import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.EventDispatcher;

import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.DisplayObjectContainer;
import flash.utils.ByteArray;


/**
* NetstreamDataVideoClient subclasses VideoPlayerClient, the default
* VideoPlayer.netStreamClientClass value. This way all
* the metadata and cue point handling built in the
* VideoPlayer works properly.
*
* The class is declared dynamic so if any other
* messages are received that we do not support in
* this class (onTextData(), other custom
* messages) no runtime errors will occur.
*/

dynamic public class NetstreamDataVideoClient extends VideoPlayerClient
{

/**
* This variable is set in onImageData and is used to help
* determine when the ready property should be true.
*/

protected var gotXMPData:Boolean;
protected var gotImageData:Boolean;
public var XMPString:String = "";
protected var verbose:Boolean = false;

/**
* The constructor must take a VideoPlayer as its
* only parameter. It needs to pass that argument
* along to the super constructor.
*/

public function NetstreamDataVideoClient(vp:VideoPlayer) {
super(vp);
gotImageData = false;
gotXMPData = false;
}

/**
* Handling for onImageData() message
* Loads the image bytes into a flash.display.Loader
* and adds the image to the
*/

public function onImageData(info:Object):void {
// Only handle onImageData() once. Any time we seek to the
// start of the file, the message will call this function
// again
trace("onImageData");
if (gotImageData)
return;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.loadBytes(info.data);
var parent:DisplayObjectContainer = _owner.root as DisplayObjectContainer;
if (parent) {
parent.addChildAt(loader, 0);
}
gotImageData = true;
}

public function onTextData(info:Object):void {
trace(info);
recurseTrace(info, "");
}


// FOR LOCAL FILE OR HTTP
public function onXMPData(info:Object):void {
if (gotXMPData)
return;

if (verbose)
trace("NetstreamDataVideoClient onXMPData");

// F4V/H264 uses data to pass raw XMP
if (info.data!= undefined)
{
if (verbose)
trace(info.data);
}
else
{
if (info.liveXML!= undefined)
{
// FLV uses liveXML to pass raw XMP
if (verbose)
trace(info.liveXML);
}
}

gotXMPData = true;

// for (var i in info)
// {
// trace(i + " is " + info[i]);
// }
// trace("####\n");

// XMP came from Adobe Media Encoder for Flash
if (info.data!= undefined)
{
XMPString = info.data;

_owner.dispatchEvent(new ExtendedMetadataEvent(ExtendedMetadataEvent.XMPDATA_RECEIVED, false, false, info));
}
else
{
if (info.liveXML!= undefined)
{
XMPString = info.liveXML;

_owner.dispatchEvent(new ExtendedMetadataEvent(ExtendedMetadataEvent.XMPDATA_RECEIVED, false, false, info));
}
}
}


private function recurseTrace(info:Object, indent:String):void
{
for (var i:* in info) {
if (typeof info[i] == "object") {
trace(indent + i + ":");
recurseTrace(info[i], indent + " ");
} else {
trace(indent + i + " : " + info[i]);
}
}
}

/**
* property that specifies whether early messages have been
* received so it is OK for the player to rewind back to the
* beginning. If we allow the VideoPlayer to rewind before
* all messages at the very beginning of the file are received,
* we may never receive them.
*
* The default class, VideoPlayerClient, only requires
* onMetaData() to be received before rewinding. onImageData()
* also appears at the beginning of the file, so we might miss
* that if we do not override this property and include a check
* for this data.
*/

override public function get ready():Boolean {
return (super.ready && gotImageData);
}

}
}


IMPORTANT: Don't try to parse the XMP data in the callback as it might be causing some timing issue and you want to give the hand back to the Netstream Object ASAP. Instead fire an event back to your client event listener and make sure you will interpret the data when the video will be in a READY to seek state.


3) Receive XMP Data using FLVPlayback

import NetstreamDataVideoClient;
import fl.video.ExtendedMetadataEvent;
import flash.events.*;
import fl.video.*;

VideoPlayer.netStreamClientClass = NetstreamDataVideoClient;

_playback = new FLVPlayback();
_playback.width = 1280;
_playback.height = 720;
_playback.autoRewind = false;
_playback.bufferingBarHidesAndDisablesOthers = true;
_playback.visible = true;
addChild(_playback);
_playback.addEventListener(MetadataEvent.METADATA_RECEIVED, metadataListener);
// the XMP one
_playback.addEventListener(ExtendedMetadataEvent.XMPDATA_RECEIVED,xmpListener);



private function xmpListener(inEvt:fl.video.ExtendedMetadataEvent):void {
var XMPString:String = "";
if (this.verbose)
trace("--- xmpListener ----");
if (this.verbose) {
if (inEvt.info.data!= undefined)
{
XMPString = inEvt.info.data;

trace("RECEIVED XMP DATA = " + XMPString);
// ready to parse
}
else
{
if (inEvt.info.liveXML!= undefined)
{
XMPString = inEvt.info.liveXML;

trace("RECEIVED XMP DATA = " + XMPString);
// ready to parse
}
}
}
}

I'm sure other people involved in the relief work can suggest other things, but a few comments from my point of view:

- Communications capability underpins the ability of other relief workers to do their jobs effectively, so although we, as a community, aren't feeding people or tending to their medical needs, we are helping those who are doing those crucial jobs by allowing them to focus on their work.

- In the short-term, the equipment that's been requested by people on the ground has either already been delivered, is onboard a ship that left Jacksonville about twelve hours ago, or is being containerized to load on a ship that's leaving from Port Everglades tomorrow.

- Also in the short-term, keep an eye out for con-artists who are trying to lure people in to fake aid-donation web sites with spam. Law enforcement is coordinating internationally to take those offline as promptly as possible.

- In the mid-term, what our community needs to do is to make sure that backhaul infrastructure gets into place to move traffic in the 1Gbps-10Gbps range from Port au Prince to Miami. There are several cable systems which land in Santo Domingo, and Columbus has a branching unit off Guantanamo, so our main efforts have been focused on getting a festoon cable run around from the Santo Domingo landing (the University of Puerto Rico Marine Research labs have committed their cable-laying ship, crew, and divers, but we're still looking for an appropriate spool of armored singlemode in the 12-24 core range (more certainly wouldn't hurt, as this would be unrepeatered), and on finding funding to get Columbus to run the spur in from their BU. BTC apparently has fiber already existing or in process of turn-up between Port au Prince and the Bahamas, but nobody's been able to get a response from them yet about its status.

- More generally, as a community, we do good when we make sure that places like this, places that may not have large or lucrative markets, are still served by diverse fiber, rather than by a single fragile monopoly, or not at all, as in Haiti's case. There are many countries as vulnerable as Haiti, and many of them have no fiber. Most humanitarian disasters happen in poor countries and these are generally the countries our community currently has the least capacity to serve. We can think a little more broadly than that, looking to a future when people in poor countries have more smartphones, and students and small businesses are getting online. We don't need to wait for markets to develop... we can invest in those markets, and _cause_ them to develop. Then they won't be as vulnerable to disasters like this.

- Thinking to the longer term... The majority of people who die in humanitarian disasters die of second-order effects like starvation and disease that come in the wake of an earthquake or flood or whatever. That's just beginning now in Haiti, and will continue for some time. The people who died in the earthquake itself will be far outnumbered by those who will die as a result of insufficiently prepared emergency response. PCH and Cisco have been trying for _years_ to get donors to support a ready-to-go emergency communications team for disaster response, but it's been impossible to get donors to fund _preparedness_ rather than after-the-fact response. But immediately after an emergency is the _most expensive_ time to acquire generators and fuel and solar panels and wind generators and batteries and satphones and fiber and space-segments and so forth. All of that can be _much more cheaply_ purchased or contracted for beforehand, and delivered on-site weeks earlier. A!
and those weeks are the weeks of effective response that reduce second-order deaths in the wake of an emergency. People who think they're being helpful with a donation now should understand that the donation would have saved ten times as many lives if it had been made a year ago, than if it's made now. If your companies have charitable foundations, please get them to think about that.

Did Prog Rock's Greatest Artist Inspire Avatar? All Signs Point To Yes

James Cameron spent years creating Avatar's floating islands and crazy dragons, and then an army of concept artists brought them to life. But maybe they had some inspiration from somewhere else? Like classic album-cover artist Roger Dean? Behold the evidence.

Chances are, if you've looked at a weirdshistic record cover by Yes, Asia or other bands, you've admired Roger Dean's paintings of surreal landscapes. If you've ever seen all good people turn their heads each day, then you're already a Dean fan.

Connor Freff Cochran, founder of Conlan Press (which is busy putting out a bunch of Peter S. Beagle books, hosting Beagle's 52/50 poetry subscription service, and putting out art books) contacted us and suggested that Avatar's lush moon might have gained some inspiration from Dean. And when you look at Dean's artwork and compare it to the concept art we posted the other day, it's hard not to see the resemblance.

All of this makes me want to rent Avatar (when it's released on DVD) and see if I can sync it up with YesSongs.

Flash and Video Games PS3 and XNA ???

Civilisation, Mass Effect and Crysis used Scaleform GFx for their Flash graphics.

https://www.scaleform.com/products_gfx.php
https://www.scaleform.com/products/clik

Scaleform® GFx™ 3.0 introduces the Common Lightweight Interface Kit (CLIK™) to help accelerate the design and development of user interfaces on multiple platforms including PCs, Consoles, and Mobiles. The CLIK component architecture and workflow enhancement tools enable users to rapidly create user interfaces from prototype to final design.

Adobe Flash contains a variety of premade and preconfigured interface components to enable easy interface creation. The Scaleform CLIK components are similar to the components found in Flash, but have been custom-designed specifically for creating games using Scaleform GFx 3.0.

Watch Flash Web Site on your HDTV with your PS3

The beautiful part of the PS3 is that the new browser in the PS3 has Flash Player 9 installed. What’s even more beautiful is that it is at least version 9.0.115 because all of my tutorials can be watched from the comfort of your couch. Connecting the PS3 with an HDMI cable makes the tutorials look amazing.

I also recommend the Logitech PS3 keyboard which makes cruising the web a joy.

Window subclassing is tricky

Window subclassing is tricky, and as a general rule one should not attempt to dynamically sub-class and unsubclass an HWDN multiple times
during its lifetime. Instead subclass once at the HWND creation time, and then un-subclass at the HWND destruction time.
ONLY un-subclass if the value of GWLP_WNDPROC matches your window proc.
In general, you do not know if other subclasses will unsubclass at WM_DESTROY or WM_NCDESTROY time, so it is safest if it attempt to unsubclass
rst in WM_DESTROY time, and then (if that does not succeed) at WM_NCDESTROY time. You willnot get a WM_NCDESTROY
message if you were able to unsubclass in response to the WM_DESTROY message.

Tealium Web analytics Blog

With the recent news on Yahoo Finance regarding Omniture-Adobe acquisition, I was curious to know a bit more about Web Analytics and provide pointers to anyone reading my blog. I posted an article some time ago on how to add Google Web Analytics to a SWF. Anyhow, here is a very great blog that I found at Tealium.com for those interested in Web Analytics. The blog is really well written by web Analytics Experts. Former Web Side Story, Visual Science and Omniture folks...

Quoting Paul Tondeur :

Both web pages provide information about the content and the level of the book.
Chapter 8 is available online as a free sample, and covers working with models and animated models that have been created in external programs. Among other things, the chapter discusses how to export models from Autodesk 3ds Max, SketchUp and Blender.

AS3 URI parser and code sequence to detect local file versus valid moniker

Sometimes when passing a file path to a SWF you would like to perform FileExistabce check before passing the file to an AS3 class. To do so you want to know if a URI is a file or an http URL or any other URI with specific protocol (moniker).
The following code will tell you if you are dealing with a local full or relative path.



var strURI:String;
var semicolumn:int = -1;
var bRemote:Boolean = false;
var bFileURI:Boolean = false;
var bUnknownURI:Boolean = false;
var bLocalFileExist:Boolean = false;
var uri:Object;
var p:String;
var strAuthority:String;
var strRelative:String;
var strProtocol:String;
var strFile:String;
var strQuery:String;
var strPath:String;
var strHost:String;
var strDirectory:String;
var strPort:String;
var strPassword:String;
var strUser:String;
var strUserInfo:String;
var strSource:String;
var strAnchor:String;
var _strURI:String = "c:\\folder\\subfolder\\test.flv";

uri = parseUri(_strURI);
for (p in uri)
{
switch (p)
{
case "authority":
strAuthority = uri[p];
break;
case "relative":
strRelative = uri[p];
break;
case "file":
strFile = uri[p];
break;
case "query":
strQuery = uri[p];
break;
case "path":
strPath = uri[p];
break;
case "host":
strHost = uri[p];
break;
case "directory":
strDirectory = uri[p];
break;
case "port":
strPort = uri[p];
break;
case "protocol":
strProtocol = uri[p];
break;
case "password":
strPassword = uri[p];
break;
case "user":
strUser = uri[p];
break;
case "userInfo":
strUserInfo = uri[p];
break;
case "source":
strSource = uri[p];
break;
case "anchor":
strAnchor = uri[p];
break;
default :
//trace(p + ": " + uri[p]);
break;
}
}

if ( (strProtocol.toLowerCase() == "http") ||
(strProtocol.toLowerCase().substr(0, 4) == "rtmp") )
bRemote = true;

if (strProtocol.toLowerCase() == "file")
bFileURI = true;

if (bRemote == false && bFileURI == false && strProtocol.toLowerCase() == "")
{
bUnknownURI = true;
// we have an unknown file moniker
// probably relative path we may have to reject
}

if (bUnknownURI || bFileURI)
{

semicolumn = _strVideoURL.lastIndexOf(":");
if ( (semicolumn>=0) && bFileURI ) {
strURI = _strVideoURL;
}
else
{
strURI = "file://" + _strVideoURL;
}

trace("URI = " + strURI);
}


public function parseUri(str:String, strictMode:Boolean=false):Object {
var o:Object = new Object();
o.strictMode = strictMode;
o.key = new Array("source","protocol","authority","userInfo","user","password","host","port","relative","path","directory","file","query","anchor");
o.q = new Object();
o.q.name = "queryKey";
o.q.parser = /(?:^|&)([^&=]*)=?([^&]*)/g
o.parser = new Object();
o.parser.strict = /^(?:([^:\/?#]+):)?(?:\/\/((?:(([^:@]*):?([^:@]*))?@)?([^:\/?#]*)(?::(\d*))?))?((((?:[^?#\/]*\/)*)([^?#]*))(?:\?([^#]*))?(?:#(.*))?)/
o.parser.loose = /^(?:(?![^:@]+:[^:@\/]*@)([^:\/?#.]+):)?(?:\/\/)?((?:(([^:@]*):?([^:@]*))?@)?([^:\/?#]*)(?::(\d*))?)(((\/(?:[^?#](?![^?#\/]*\.[^?#\/.]+(?:[?#]|$)))*\/?)?([^?#\/]*))(?:\?([^#]*))?(?:#(.*))?)/

var m:Object = o.parser[o.strictMode ? "strict" : "loose"].exec(str);
var uri:Object = new Object();
var i:int = 14;
while (i--) uri[o.key[i]] = m[i] || "";
uri[o.q.name] = new Object();
uri[o.key[12]].replace(o.q.parser, function ($0, $1, $2){
if ($1) uri[o.q.name][$1] = $2;
}
);
return uri;
}

Blender Fluid Simulation

Very impressive. I am wondering if it is Realtime and if they take advantage of GPU acceleration.

PERFORCE INTEGRATION ON THE MAC OF XCODE FRAMEWORK

P4V on the mac is once again lacking of UI quality... Obviously the quality of p4v is far behind the Windows Version. An other reason for me not to like the MAC... When it comes to integrate XCode Frameworks from a remote depot or a branch, it is crucial to add the -t flag to preserve the symlink of XCode Framework else the symlink will be treated as text file leading to compilation errors.... On windows the -t option is available through the UI when doing the integration or the preview of the integration the "preserve file type" check box but on the MAC you are screwed... You need to use p4 command line tool. To do so the easiest way consist in creating a .p4config file that you can store at the root of the current logged in user.


cd ~/
type > .p4config
vi .p4config
P4CLIENT=WORKSPACE
P4USER=P4User
P4PORT=fullyqualifiedperforceservername:1666
:w!
export P4CONFIG=/Users/CurrentUser/.p4config
p4 login
type password
now
p4 integrate -o -t -b "branchspec" //...@changelist

You can refresh p4v to view the integration changelist and you can merge
or most of the time accept theirs changes.
Finally you can check in to perforce in the depot
