Detailed explanation of the source code launcher Main Screen Program Arrangement in Android [Android launcher evolution 1]

Recently I have studied lancher, from the text message MMS framework to the bug and demand modification of launcher. Next I will explain the layout of the simplest home screen program of launcher, it gives readers a sense of getting started. The main screen of Android is divided into five screens, which are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 from left to right. So which programs or widgets you want to put on the home screen can be implemented in the layout file. Next I will talk about the layout file default_workspace.xml. This is a layout file for the main screen arrangement. It is written here. After the program is run, you can implement the specific programs or widgets on the screen. Let's first take a look at figure (1) and figure (2 ). Figure (1) shows a three-screen layout for the master screen, with the shortcut of four programs at the bottom. Figure (2) shows me a rough picture. The screen is generally divided into two-dimensional coordinates, with the origin () in the upper left corner ), the horizontal direction is the X axis (the coordinates are 1 to the right, respectively, 0, 1, 2, 3), and the vertical is the Y axis (1 to the downward direction, respectively, 0, 1, 2, 3 ).

The code in the layout file is as follows:

Compilation instructions:

(1) build first. If you have any questions, refer to compiling the source code for Android in Linux [Android Evolution ];

(2) After mm is complete, push it to the mobile phone:

ADB push.../../out/target/product/n80w/system/APP/launcher.apk system/APP/

(3) Go to the red screen of the phone. Press the START key and the volume reduction key together.

(4) use the root permission to enter the ../out/host/linux_x86/bin/directory and enter the command:

#./Fastboot-W clear userdata and cache. Purpose: Make sure you have the desired effect!

(5) restart the phone at last: or enter the command:./fastboot reboot.

Or simply click the button to restart the battery. I declare in advance that I am not responsible for any problems with the mobile phone during the operation.

In this way, the expected results are displayed.
