Storage Methods:

1. Shared Preferences
2. SQLite Databse
3. XML
1). Shared Preferences :
Interface for accessing and modifying preference data returned by
getSharedPreferences(String, int).
SharedPreferences
spf=getSharedPreferences("mypreferences",Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
SharedPreferences.Editor
Interface used for modifying values in a SharedPreferences object.
Create a new Editor for these preferences, through which you can make modifications to the data in the
preferences and atomically commit those changes back to the SharedPreferences object.
SharedPreferences.Editor editor=spf.edit();
Note : to get the data from shared prefernces shared prefrences object is enough but to insert data or to
modify data we need to create Shared Preferences.Editor Object.
The data is stored using key,value pairs you need pass a unique key for each value and you can
insert Boolean, Float , Long , String , int data type values.
Sample Program on Shared Preferences :

Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"User Name is :"+name+" Pass is :"+pass
,Toast.LENGTH_LONG ).show();
}
}
to explore persisted shared preferences select DDMS-data-data-select your package open shared
preferences you will get an xml with the preferences name.

2).

SQLite DataBase :

SQLiteDatabase has methods to create, delete, execute SQL commands, and perform other
common database management tasks.
Note : Database names must be unique within an application, not across all applications.
openOrCreateDatabase(String path, SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory factory)
Equivalent to openDatabase(path, factory, CREATE_IF_NECESSARY).
Is used to create the SQLite Object if the data base is not available creates a new database if
database is already available then it opens the database .
SQLiteDatabase db=openOrCreateDatabase("mydb",Context.MODE_PRIVATE, null);

Cursor : This interface provides random read-write access to the result set returned by a database
query.
db.execSQL("create table employee(eid varchar2(20),ename varchar2(20),desig
varchar2(20),dept varchar2(20));");
This statement creates a new table with employee if table is not there it will create a new table.
If table is already available it will through u an exception u need to handle it.
try{
db.execSQL("create table employee(eid varchar2(20),ename varchar2(20),desig
varchar2(20),dept varchar2(20));");
}catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}

If you want explore the db file select DDMS- data data select your package inside package u will
find a database folder and select u r db file u can pull that one to ur system by selecting pull a file from
the device icon . SQLite browser is used to explore your sqlite dbfile .

Using XML :
You can persist the data as a XML file . The advantage if u persist the data in xml u can store
the data into ur external and internal storage and xml interapable language . If you want share your to
some other technologies use XML format.
To read and write the data into xml file we need XML parsers.
There are two types of parser are available
1).
2).

JAXP ( DOM (read-write) , SAX (Read-only))

JAXB
Android does not support JAXB.

For the above Activity instead of persisting the data into SQLite we will store the data in to XML

Working with DOM :

to run this application u need to add the below permission in the AndroidManifest.xml file
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
Before run this application u need to create a xml file in your sdcard as the following structure
mnt/sdcard/xml/ Employees.xml with root tag as <employees></employees>

To Work with above application you need add the following permissions in the
AndroidManifest.xml file
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE"/>

Working With WebView:

A View that displays web pages. This class is the basis upon which you can roll your own web
browser or simply display some online content within your Activity. It uses the WebKit rendering
engine to display web pages and includes methods to navigate forward and backward through a history,
zoom in and out, perform text searches and more.
To enable the built-in zoom, set WebSettings.setBuiltInZoomControls(boolean) (introduced in API
version 3).
Note that, in order for your Activity to access the Internet and load web pages in a WebView, you must
add the INTERNET permissions to your Android Manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE"/>

Sample Application on WebView :

Take the input from the user through edittext and when you press go button load
the web page in the webview

Working With Wifi :
WifiManager :
This class provides the primary API for managing all aspects of Wi-Fi
connectivity. Get an instance of this class by calling
Context.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE). It deals with several categories of items:
The list of configured networks. The list can be viewed and updated, and attributes of individual
entries can be modified.
The currently active Wi-Fi network, if any. Connectivity can be established or torn down, and
dynamic information about the state of the network can be queried.
Results of access point scans, containing enough information to make decisions about what
access point to connect to.
It defines the names of various Intent actions that are broadcast upon any sort of change in WiFi state. To work with this application you need to add the following persmissions in the
manifest.xml

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

WifiConfiguration :
A class representing a configured Wi-Fi network, including the security configuration.

Notification Manager :
class to notify the user of events that happen. This is how you tell the user that something has
happened in the background.
Notifications can take different forms:
A persistent icon that goes in the status bar and is accessible through the launcher, (when the
user selects it, a designated Intent can be launched),
Turning on or flashing LEDs on the device, or
Alerting the user by flashing the backlight, playing a sound, or vibrating.
Each of the notify methods takes an int id parameter. This id identifies this notification from your app
to the system, so that id should be unique within your app. If you call one of the notify methods with an
id that is currently active and a new set of notification parameters, it will be updated. For example, if
you pass a new status bar icon, the old icon in the status bar will be replaced with the new one. This is
also the same id you pass to the cancel(int) method to clear this notification.
You do not instantiate this class directly; instead, retrieve it through getSystemService(String).
Notification :
Notification
A Notification object defines the details of the notification message that is displayed in the status bar
and "Notifications" window, and any other alert settings, such as sounds and blinking lights.
A status bar notification requires all of the following:
An icon for the status bar
A title and expanded message for the expanded view (unless you define a custom expanded
view)
A PendingIntent, to be fired when the notification is selected
Optional settings for the status bar notification include:
A ticker-text message for the status bar
An alert sound

 A vibrate setting
A flashing LED setting
Vibrator :
Class that operates the vibrator on the device.
If your process exits, any vibration you started with will stop.
You do not instantiate this class directly; instead, retrieve it through getSystemService(String).
Vibrator vibrator=(Vibrator)getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);
Need to add the following permission in the AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE"/>

Develop a sample code to display notification and Vibrate the device when wifi is switch on or
wifi switch off for the above application.

}
}
}
LocationManager :
This class provides access to the system location services. These services allow applications to
obtain periodic updates of the device's geographical location, or to fire an application-specified Intent
when the device enters the proximity of a given geographical location. You do not instantiate this class
directly; instead, retrieve it through Context.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE).
you need to add the following permissions in AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_MOCK_LOCATION"/>
public void requestLocationUpdates (String provider, long minTime, float minDistance,
LocationListener listener)
Registers the current activity to be notified periodically by the named provider. Periodically, the
supplied LocationListener will be called with the current Location or with status updates.

It may take a while to receive the most recent location. If an immediate location is required,
applications may use the getLastKnownLocation(String) method.
In case the provider is disabled by the user, updates will stop, and the onProviderDisabled(String)
method will be called. As soon as the provider is enabled again, the onProviderEnabled(String) method
will be called and location updates will start again.
The frequency of notification may be controlled using the minTime and minDistance parameters. If
minTime is greater than 0, the LocationManager could potentially rest for minTime milliseconds
between location updates to conserve power. If minDistance is greater than 0, a location will only be
broadcasted if the device moves by minDistance meters. To obtain notifications as frequently as
possible, set both parameters to 0.
Background services should be careful about setting a sufficiently high minTime so that the device
doesn't consume too much power by keeping the GPS or wireless radios on all the time. In particular,
values under 60000ms are not recommended.
The calling thread must be a Looper thread such as the main thread of the calling Activity.
Parameters

provider

the name of the provider with which to register

the minimum time interval for notifications, in milliseconds. This field is only used as a
minTime hint to conserve power, and actual time between location updates may be greater or
lesser than this value.
minDistance the minimum distance interval for notifications, in meters
a {#link LocationListener} whose onLocationChanged(Location) method will be called
listener
for each location update
Sample Code to Work with LocationBasedServices :

package com.mahesh.xml;
import ..............................;

public class LocationTest extends Activity{

LocationManager lManager;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.location);
lManager=(LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
lManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 1000, 1,
new LocationListener() {
@Override
public void onStatusChanged(String arg0, int arg1, Bundle arg2) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location l) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Latitude value
is :"+l.getLatitude()+"Logitude value is :"+l.getLongitude(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

});

public void getLocation(View v){

Location l=lManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Latitude value is :"+l.getLatitude()
+"Logitude value is :"+l.getLongitude(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}}

ListActivity :
An activity that displays a list of items by binding to a data source such as an array or Cursor,
and exposes event handlers when the user selects an item.
ListActivity hosts a ListView object that can be bound to different data sources, typically either an
array or a Cursor holding query results. Binding, screen layout, and row layout are discussed in the
following sections.
Screen Layout
ListActivity has a default layout that consists of a single, full-screen list in the center of the screen.
However, if you desire, you can customize the screen layout by setting your own view layout with
setContentView() in onCreate(). To do this, your own view MUST contain a ListView object with the
id "@android:id/list" (or list if it's in code)
Optionally, your custom view can contain another view object of any type to display when the list view
is empty. This "empty list" notifier must have an id "android:empty". Note that when an empty view is
present, the list view will be hidden when there is no data to display.
The following code demonstrates an (ugly) custom screen layout. It has a list with a green background,
and an alternate red "no data" message.
<?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"
android:paddingLeft="8dp"
android:paddingRight="8dp">
<ListView android:id="@id/android:list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#00FF00"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:drawSelectorOnTop="false"/>
<TextView id="@id/android:empty"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#FF0000"
android:text="No data"/>
</LinearLayout>

Base Adapter :
Common base class of common implementation for an Adapter that can be used in both
ListView (by implementing the specialized ListAdapter interface} and Spinner (by implementing the
specialized SpinnerAdapter interface.

Sample Program to display image names in SDCARD using ListActivity:

package com.mahesh.xml;
import java.io.File;
import ..................;
public class ListActivityTest extends ListActivity{
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
String path=Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+"/images";
File f=new File(path);
if(f.exists()){
String[] images=f.list();
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter=new ArrayAdapter<String>(getApplicationContext(),
android.R.layout.simple_gallery_item,images);
setListAdapter(adapter);

}else{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "There is no file with the given
path",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
Sample program on creating own CustomView Adapter and display image , image name and
image size from SDCARD/images directory:

Gallery :
A view that shows items in a center-locked, horizontally scrolling list.
The default values for the Gallery assume you will be using Theme_galleryItemBackground as the
background for each View given to the Gallery from the Adapter. If you are not doing this, you may
need to adjust some Gallery properties, such as the spacing.
Views given to the Gallery should use Gallery.LayoutParams as their layout parameters type.
