Java help: Modify reportScore to accept strings in Eclipse

totebo

Hi guys,

I need to use 32 bit integers as a score. My workaround on iOS is to send a string as a score, and if it exists convert it to a 32 bit int. This works great. I'm trying to do the same on Android, but I think my complete lack of Java skillz is letting me down.

This is the current Java code for reportScore:

static public void reportScore(String id, long score, int immediate){ if(mHelper != null && mHelper.isSignedIn()) {   if(immediate == 1) { PendingResult<Leaderboards.SubmitScoreResult> result = Games.Leaderboards.submitScoreImmediate(mHelper.getApiClient(), id, score); ResultCallback<Leaderboards.SubmitScoreResult> mResultCallback = new ResultCallback<Leaderboards.SubmitScoreResult>() { <a href="https://forum.gideros.rocks/profile/Override" rel="nofollow">@Override</a> public void onResult(Leaderboards.SubmitScoreResult result) { if (sData != 0) { if(result.getStatus().getStatusCode() == GamesStatusCodes.STATUS_OK){ GGooglePlay.onScoreSubmitted(sData); } } } }; result.setResultCallback(mResultCallback); } else { Games.Leaderboards.submitScore(mHelper.getApiClient(), id, score); } } }

In order for this to be backwards compatible and accept a string as a score I've modified it, see code below. The app freezes and crashes when submitting any score (integer or string).

static public void reportScore(String id, long score, int immediate, String str_score){ if(mHelper != null && mHelper.isSignedIn()) {   if(str_score != null) { score = Long.valueOf(str_score); }   if(immediate == 1) { PendingResult<Leaderboards.SubmitScoreResult> result = Games.Leaderboards.submitScoreImmediate(mHelper.getApiClient(), id, score); ResultCallback<Leaderboards.SubmitScoreResult> mResultCallback = new ResultCallback<Leaderboards.SubmitScoreResult>() { <a href="https://forum.gideros.rocks/profile/Override" rel="nofollow">@Override</a> public void onResult(Leaderboards.SubmitScoreResult result) { if (sData != 0) { if(result.getStatus().getStatusCode() == GamesStatusCodes.STATUS_OK){ GGooglePlay.onScoreSubmitted(sData); } } } }; result.setResultCallback(mResultCallback); } else { Games.Leaderboards.submitScore(mHelper.getApiClient(), id, score); } } }

Help!

If you use the clans code I made then you can use the info field to store whatever you like - it uses the facebook, gamecenter or google login to match the scores.

totebo

Where can I find this "clans code" of which you speak?

totebo

And @sinistersoft, do you see any immediate issues with the Java code above?

ar2rsawseen

Yes in Android it would crash, because method signature have changed, and JNI can't find method with String, long, int signature anymore.
So you would also need to change JNI code and recompile binaries. If you are up for it, I can specify where to change what, just let me know which plugin exactly are you using, cause I start to confuse them

totebo

Wow! I'd like to say I'm up for that, but "recompile binaries" is too scary a concept. Is there no other way around it? Maybe if I create a completely custom method in Java?

totebo

Sent email @ar2rsawseen.

You already commented on it.

totebo

Oh dear, now I remember.

Compiled binaries, actually not so hard, need to run ndk_build in jni folder, but it also needs to have those default .mk files there too.

totebo

Feels like I'm entering a magical land. Going to try to compile this morning. Is it from the command line?

totebo

@ar2rsawseen, I was reading your post on mobile so didn't see the attachment. Thanks for compiling!

Using the files as is causes a crash, so I renamed the "libgsm.so" files to "libgoogleplay.so" (because the naming has changed, right?), but also crashes at start.

ar2rsawseen

hmm, yes damn, I might have used old mk files, too (since the naming is wrong) unfortunately I'm away for the moment, can try recompiling them in the morning.

But as far as I remember, you just, from command line, cd in your plugins jni folder (where there are these sources and Andoird.mk and Application.mk) and run path/to/ndk-build

for Windows I use ndk-build.cmd, but I think osx/linux simply has nkd-build.

If you are using eclipse, you can setup ndk-build to build plugins on your app build:

Have not used it in Android Studio though, but probably there should be a way to do it too.

totebo

Thanks @ar2rsawseen, may try to enter the magical forest of ndk builds after all.
