Thread: Re: [xmlvm-users] Access to "raw" resources

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

There is something very strange going on. I get a major error when
initializing a FileInputStream with any resource path (i.e. path
obtained by ...
  String fileName = getFileNamePath(findResourceNameById(resourceId));
	String filePath = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource(fileName,"xml");
- I've tested with activity.xml = my layout file and one raw
  resource)
and then instantiating a new FileInputStream object.

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(filePath);

If filePath does not exist, it gives a FileNotFound exception. If it
does exist (e.g. the activity.xml is obviously read during startup),
there is a major crash of the whole MacOS - not only the iPhone
emulator.

I've noted that my icon is not shown as well, so perhaps there is a
problem with resources in general. However, my layout xml is pretty
basic:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
  android:orientation="vertical">

  <TextView android:id="@+id/result"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
  </TextView>

  <Button android:id="@+id/livetest"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/livetest"
  ></Button>

  <Button android:id="@+id/back"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/back"
  ></Button>

  <Button android:id="@+id/validate"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/validate"
    android:enabled="true"
  ></Button>
</LinearLayout>

... as well as the AndroidManifest.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.SeewaldSolutions.DanceMusicRecognizer"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0">
    <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" />
    <uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO"></uses-permission>
    <uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>
    <application android:label="@string/dancing_guide_app"
      android:icon="@drawable/launcher">
        <activity android:name="DanceMusicRecognizerActivity"
          android:icon="@drawable/launcher"
          android:configChanges="orientation">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category
android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>
</manifest>

I compile using ...
javac
android_src/src/com/SeewaldSolutions/DanceMusicRecognizer/*.java
android_src/gen/com/SeewaldSolutions/DanceMusicRecognizer/R.java -d
android_src_build -cp
xmlvm/dist/lib/objc-compat.jar:xmlvm/dist/lib/android-compat.jar

... and use xmlvm like this ...

java -jar xmlvm/dist/xmlvm.jar --in=android_src_build
--out=DanceMusicRecognizer --target=android-on-iphone
--iphone-app=DanceMusicRecognizer --resource=android_src/res/layout
--resource=android_src/res/raw --resource=android_src/res/drawable
--resource=android_src/AndroidManifest.xml

activity.xml (from layout directory) and the icons are copied to the
resource directory in target, but I still get @string/back and so on
as button text. I always got a crash when trying to access images as
well, and the icon does not work. Is there anything I am doing
wrong?

Best,
  Alex
