Uhohs!
It appears that the
Google Android Code has been deleted from the Linux Kernel. The change is explained
in depth at
Kroah.com but the folks at
RegHardware sum it up nicely:
“No one cared about the code, so it was removed,” writes Kroah-Hartman. “As
I’ve stated before, code in the staging tree needs to be worked on to be merged
to the main kernel tree, or it will be deleted.”
But the larger problem, he continues, is that Android uses a new lock type,
new hooks for its “sometimes bizarre” security model, and a revamped framebuffer
driver infrastructure. All this, he says, prevents “a large chunk” of Android
drivers and platform code from merging into the main kernel tree.
Google, he ultimately argues, has forked its mobile OS.

ProgressBar is a visual indicator of progress in some operation. Displays a
bar to the user representing how far the operation has progressed; the application
can change the amount of progress (modifying the length of the bar) as it moves
forward.

In early betas, the Android IPC was strictly synchronous. This
means that service invocations had to wait for the return value of the remote method
to arrive back to the caller. This is generally an advantage because the caller
can be sure that the called service received the invocation by the time the remote
method returns. In some cases, however, this causes the caller to wait unnecessarily.
If synchronicity is not required and the method has no return value, oneway AIDL
interfaces may be used.
Oneway methods are specified by addind the oneway keyword to the AIDL interface
definition.
oneway interface IncreaseCounter {
void increaseCounter( int diff );
}
