Check out **[`Paint.setStrokeWidth()`][3]**.

You draw by making various **[`Drawable`][1]** objects. The objects themselves are separated from the instructions about how to draw them; that&#39;s covered by the **[`Paint`][2]** class. `Paint` instances have a method that allows you set the width of the stroke that will be used to draw the objects, **[`setStrokeWidth()`][3]**, which is what you want.

I am in progress to learn Python. Hopefully someone points me to correct way.  
This is what I&#39;d like to do below:

    def decorate(function):
        def wrap_function(*args, **kwargs):
            str = &#39;Hello!&#39;  # This is what I want
            return function(*args, **kwargs)
        return wrap_function

    @decorate
    def print_message():
        # I&#39;d like to pass &#39;str&#39; as mentioned above
        # to any functions&#39; argument like below:
        print(str)  # &#39;str&#39; is same as above

Any idea? Thanks in advance.

How can I pass a variable in a decorator to function&#39;s argument in a decorated function?

I worked on a PHP project earlier where prepared statements made the SELECT queries 20% faster.

I&#39;m wondering if it works on Python? I can&#39;t seem to find anything that specifically says it does or does NOT.

I have a few elements in a RelativeView with the align bottom attribute set, when the soft keyboard comes up the elements are hidden by the soft keyboard.

I would like them to move up so that if there is enough screen space they are shown above the keyboard, or to make the section above the keyboard scrollable so the user can still see the elements.

Any ideas on how to approach this?

I&#39;ve been trying to stream mp3&#39;s over http using Android&#39;s built in MediaPlayer class. The documentation would suggest to me that this should be as easy as :

    MediaPlayer mp = new MediaPlayer();
    mp.setDataSource(URL_OF_FILE);
    mp.prepare();
    mp.start();

However I am getting the following repeatedly. I have tried different URLs as well. Please don&#39;t tell me that streaming doesn&#39;t work on mp3&#39;s.

    E/PlayerDriver(   31): Command PLAYER_SET_DATA_SOURCE completed with an error or info PVMFErrNotSupported
    W/PlayerDriver(   31): PVMFInfoErrorHandlingComplete
    E/MediaPlayer(  198): error (1, -4)
    E/MediaPlayer(  198): start called in state 0
    E/MediaPlayer(  198): error (-38, 0)
    E/MediaPlayer(  198): Error (1,-4)
    E/MediaPlayer(  198): Error (-38,0)

Any help much appreciated, thanks

I have a custom view derived from View. I&#39;d like to be notified when the view is clicked, and the x,y location of where the click happened. Same for long-clicks. 

Looks like to do this, I need to override `onTouchEvent()`. Is there no way to get the x,y location of the event from an `OnClickListener` instead, though?

If not, what&#39;s a good way of telling if a motion event is a &#39;real&#39; click vs a long-click etc? The `onTouchEvent` generates many events in rapid succession etc.

OnClickListener - x,y location of event?

I looked online and was not able to find a working example of the PopupWindow class.  The code examples I found online either compile but do not work, or are using methods which have since been removed (such as `Activity.getViewInflate())`.

Is there a simple *working* example that displays a PopupWindow?

Is there a simple example of the PopupWindow class using Android v2.0?

I am using the android emulator to run my programs.
But its really slow. 
It takes around 90 seconds to startup and show the home screen.
Can I tweak it so that I can reduce this time considerably?
Thanks
