java - android threading and handler - Changing UI objects from a background thread -


i've written small android application send , receive udp messages on local network.
i have udp receiver thread runs listen udp packets, want happen button become enabled on ui when packet received contains string of data. know has done handler, problem being have small amount of knowledge threads , little knowledge handlers.
able shed light on how handler put code?
thanks

code:

public void startudplistener() {      // creates listener thread     listen = true;     thread listenthread = new thread(new runnable() {          @override         public void run() {              try {                  log.i(log, "listener started!");                 datagramsocket socket = new datagramsocket(broadcastport);                 socket.setsotimeout(1500);                 byte[] buffer = new byte[buffersize];                 datagrampacket packet = new datagrampacket(buffer, buffersize);                   while(listen) {                      try {                          log.i(log, "listening packets");                         socket.receive(packet);                         string data = new string(buffer, 0, packet.getlength());                         log.i(log, "udp packet received "+ packet.getaddress() +" packet contents: " + data);                         }                     catch(ioexception e) {                          log.e(log, "ioexception in listener " + e);                     }                 }                  log.i(log, "listener ending");                 socket.disconnect();                 socket.close();                 return;             }              catch(socketexception e) {                  log.e(log, "socketexception in listener " + e);              }         }     });      listenthread.start();  }

you add 1 , send either message or runnable.

private final handler muithreadhandler = new handler(looper.getmainlooper());  void fromanythread() {     final string importantdatafrombackgroundthread = "!!!";     muithreadhandler.post(new runnable() {         @override         public void run() {             system.out.println("hi ui thread:" + importantdatafrombackgroundthread);         }     }); }

the handler handles messages / runnables within thread runs in. if specify looper.getmainlooper() guaranteed main thread.

html - Sizing a high-res image (~8MB) to display entirely in a small div (circular, diameter 100px) -

first of all, thank being patient know simple question more couple of weeks' experience figure out. i've seen folks persevere , helpful on here , hope you're willing me. here fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/65uzf/ here 1 of places searched answers on here: ( vertically center image thumbnails fix-sized div ) tried solutions on there , didn't work out me. i've searched ~4 or 5 others, , been unsuccessful those, too. what want take large image (what linked background-image #ysypic , #tabpic divs) , display thumbnail version of image in confines of divs have set it. is, using background properties have laid out in css, portion of image displays inside of circular divs. without these properties, display defaults smaller section of image [presumably pi*(50^2) area in top left] terrible resolution. i not care if entire image doesn't display inside of circles (it won't, given difference in shape), , overflow not being displayed fine. want able see figu

java - IntelliJ - No such instance method -

using intellij's 12 ultimate, i'm running following code in debugger: java import play.api.libs.json.jsvalue; public class foo { ... public jsvalue tojson() { ... } public class fooexample { ... foo foo = new foo(); system.out.println("...); //<-- breakpoint at breakpoint, right-clicked source code , picked "evaluate expression," typing in: foo.tojson() . but following error showed up: no such instance method: play.api.libs.json.jsvalue$class.com.foo.foo.tojson () am doing wrong? foo#tojson calls scala code, if matters. edit had breakpoint after instantiation of foo. downvoted it, deserved it. edit my answer no longer valid after op modified question (i.e. moved breakpoint actual is).. a breakpoint hit before line executed. in case foo has not yet been declared or instantiated (i.e. foo constructor has not yet been called). you'll need put breakpoint @ next line (or step on current line) if want evaluate foo .

identifier - Is it possible for an html5 document to have two ids? -

i wondering if html5 element can have 2 ids, this: <button id="thing1" id="thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> or this: <button id="thing1, thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> also, if 1 of ids said 1 thing, , other id said thing, 1 used? tl;dr : no. in versions of html, each element can have 1 id. see the spec : the id attribute specifies element's unique identifier (id). [dom] the value must unique amongst ids in element's home subtree , must contain @ least 1 character. the value must not contain space characters. note: there no other restrictions on form id can take; in particular, ids can consist of digits, start digit, start underscore, consist of punctuation , etc. note: element's unique identifier can used variety of purposes, notably way link specific parts of document usin
