[xmlvm-users] Access to "raw" resources

[Dr. A. K. S. <al...@se...>]

Hi all,

I was just trying to make access to raw resources possible in xmlvm,
in my case .wav files, for the android2iphone toolchain. I thought of
implementing openRawResource() for this:

public String openRawResource(int resourceId) throws Exception {
  String fileName = getFileNamePath(findResourceNameById(resourceId));
  String filePath = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource(fileName,"wav");
  return new FileInputStream(filePath);
}

However, this leads to severe crashes -  in one case even bringing
down MacOS(!) when running the app on the simulator. I've checked and
fileName / filePath give back reasonable paths (when manually
adding the wav files to the resources in Xcode, of course -
otherwise it crashes on program start ;-). The moment I instantiate
FileInputStream, I get severe crashes without any debugging info
that I can see (in Xcode when running on the emulator)

I've checked the objectiveC implementation of FileInputStream and it
seems to look ok. I've observed this behavior for SVN rev. 690.

Any ideas what could cause this?

Best,
  Alex
P.S. Very minor issue: float and double NaN constants should read NAN in
objC - not NaN.
