Compiling for Android?

[bigtunacan]

I'm unable to compile my application to Android.  I have installed Java 1.6 32 bit SDK as well as the Android dev tools.

Here is the error messages I'm seeing.

Code: (glbasic) [Select]

I have also the following in my environment variables setup.

"I'm unable to compile my application to Android.  I have installed Java 1.6 32 bit SDK as well as the Android dev tools"

I have similar problem too. First of all I downloaded and installed "java_ee_sdk-6u3-jdk7-windows-ml.exe" from 

"http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-ee-sdk-6u3-jdk-7-downloads-439818.html"

Is this right software to install? I have a doupt. Because it has been installed to

"c:\glassfish3\jdk7" instead of  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_41"

Bigtunacan, where did you download Jawa from?

Did you also add C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_41\bin to the System Path under the Environment Variables?

Yes; I have that set as well.

Make sure its the 32-bit Java SDK

[bigtunacan]

Yes, I am also running the 32bit version.  At one point I had to uninstall and reinstall the Android toolkit; somehow I think GLBasic was not properly able to locate the new location so I uninstalled and reinstalled GLBasic.  This now appears to pick up the correct location and the compile process gets further, but still errors out.  Here is the message I am getting now instead.

I'm getting that too, but I presumed it was because I didn't have an Android device attached? It still produces .APK files though, so it did work.

[MrTAToad]

The only time you get that is if it cant install the APK automatically - it can be ignored...

[bigtunacan]

Ah; ok I was able to install on the device and opened the app.  It opened ok, but crashes as soon as I tap the screen.  How are you debugging on Android?

[dreamerman]

To debug on android use: 'GLBasic\Compiler\platform\android\bin\_Logview.bat' - of course edit it and change path to same as you have installed GLB and JDK.. it lets you view shorter version of logs, to full log file find 'android-sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe' and make bat file with such cmd:
'adb.exe shell logcat > log.txt'
it will create full log file for attached device..
To print some debug info onto adb debugger use STDOUT command in GLB - instead of DEBUG.

For example if you are using opengl inlines, don't use functions not available on OpenGL ES - such as glPolygonMode, glBegin... - that causes such crashes.
