Notifications plugin build issue

Anton_Komkov · April 7, 2015, 10:03am

Hello everybody!

I downloaded the Notifications plugin and run the build.sh. It works fine until

[android] CORONA\_PATH: ../../../../../Applications/CoronaEnterprise USAGE: build.plugin.sh USAGE: build.plugin.sh android\_sdk\_path USAGE: build.plugin.sh android\_sdk\_path corona\_enterprise\_path android\_sdk\_path: Path to the root Android SDK directory. corona\_enterprise\_path: Path to the CoronaEnterprise directory. Exiting due to errors (above) Exiting due to errors (above)

Have any ideas?

Hi komkov,

You likely do not have your ANDROID_SDK environment variable defined. Edit ~/.bash_profile and add the following lines:

export ANDROID\_SDK=/path/to/android/sdk export ANDROID\_NDK=/path/to/android/ndk

If you do not have hidden files displayed, you can open Terminal and type “open ~/.bash_profile” to edit it.

You will also need some other Android-specific tools in your path. Your bash profile should look something like this, at minimum:

export PATH="$PATH\ :/usr/local/bin\ :/opt/local/bin\ :$HOME/External/android-sdk-mac\_86/build-tools/21.1.2\ :$HOME/External/android-sdk-mac\_86/platform-tools\ :$HOME/External/android-sdk-mac\_86/tools" export ANDROID\_NDK="$HOME/External/android-ndk-r10d" export ANDROID\_SDK="$HOME/External/android-sdk-mac\_86"

Hi Michael,

Thanx for your response. I added ANDROID_NDK & ANDROID_SDK variables to my bash_profile. Now I get next error:

I’m novice to developing for Android. Can you explain me how to build plugins step-by-step. Maybe I do something wrong initially.

Hi komkov,

Regarding that second issue, since you’ve run the build script past this point, verify that you have a file called “Corona.jar” in the directory:

plugins-source-notifications-master/android/libs

The definition of the notificationSchedule() method should be in that jar file.

If it’s not there, I’d verify that you’re Corona Enterprise path in that script is correct.

Anton_Komkov · April 9, 2015, 4:17am

Hi ajaymccaleb-work,

Thanx for your response. I have Corona.jar file in plugins-source-notifications-master/android/libs

My path to Corona Enterprise is /Applications/CoronaEnterprise/

My bash_profile is

... export ANDROID\_HOME="/Users/komkov/Documents/Android SDK" export ANDROID\_SDK="/Users/komkov/Documents/Android SDK" export ANDROID\_NDK="/Users/komkov/Documents/Android NDK" export PATH=${PATH}:$ANDROID\_HOME/tools:$ANDROID\_HOME/platform-tools:$ANDROID\_HOME/build-tools/22.0.1

What’s wrong here?

Ajay_McCaleb · April 9, 2015, 6:58am

Try changing your paths to the Android SDK and NDK such that they don’t have spaces. As a general rule, spaces in file names are usually a bad idea as they’ll give some undefined behavior on the command line.

Anton_Komkov · April 9, 2015, 7:06am

Yes, I already remove spaces, but the problem is the same. Do you have more ideas?

Ajay_McCaleb · April 9, 2015, 3:18pm

Next, verify that there’s a .class file called “NativeToJavaBridge.class” inside Corona.jar. You can do this in the terminal with the commands:

cd [to the libs directory mentioned before]
unzip Corona.jar
find . | grep -i Native

If there isn’t a NativeToJavaBridge.class file, try upgrading your Enterprise installation to the latest daily build.

Michael_W · April 9, 2015, 7:33pm

Regarding spaces, wrap all your variable/paths in quotes.

Good:

export PATH="${PATH}:$ANDROID\_HOME/tools:$ANDROID\_HOME/platform-tools:$ANDROID\_HOME/build-tools/22.0.1"

Bad:

export PATH=${PATH}:$ANDROID\_HOME/tools:$ANDROID\_HOME/platform-tools:$ANDROID\_HOME/build-tools/22.0.1

Anton_Komkov · April 10, 2015, 3:43am

I have “NativeToJavaBridge.class” file.

$ find . | grep -i Native ./com/ansca/corona/JavaToNativeShim.class ./com/ansca/corona/NativeToJavaBridge$1$1.class ./com/ansca/corona/NativeToJavaBridge$1.class ./com/ansca/corona/NativeToJavaBridge$2.class ./com/ansca/corona/NativeToJavaBridge$LoadBitmapResult.class ./com/ansca/corona/NativeToJavaBridge.class

Thanx for a helpful article, but the problem is the same.

Hmm… ok. Next you could try investigating your Java tools.

First, you should see if you have Java 6 at the least. Judging from the warnings you were getting, it looks like you might have Java 5.

Type javac -version at the command line. If you’re output is like the following, then you should have the latest Java 6 JDK installed.

$ javac -version javac 1.6.0\_65

If you don’t have Java JDK 6, From Oracle’s FAQ page:

For Java versions 6 and below, Apple supplies their own version of Java. For Mac OS X 10.6 and below, use the Software Update feature (available on the Apple menu) to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java 6 for your Mac. For issues related to Apple Java 6 on Mac, contact Apple Support.

After getting the latest version of Java JDK 6 installed, verify that your JAVA_HOME environment variable is set correctly. Do this by typing $JAVA_HOME at the command line. The output should be like the following:

$ $JAVA\_HOME -bash: /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home: is a directory&nbsp;

If this isn’t correct, change it in your .bash_profile as mentioned before.

Assuming all this is now correct, try compiling the plugin again and see if it works.

Anton_Komkov · April 11, 2015, 6:30am

Now my Java version is 1.8.0_40:

$ javac -version javac 1.8.0\_40

I added $JAVA_HOME to my bash_profile & now my version is 1.6.0_65:

$ javac -version javac 1.6.0\_65

Now I get next error:

... [javac] warning: java/lang/annotation/RetentionPolicy.class(java/lang/annotation:RetentionPolicy.class): major version 51 is newer than 50, the highest major version supported by this compiler. [javac] It is recommended that the compiler be upgraded.

Michael, ajaymccaleb-work, do you have more ideas?

Anton_Komkov · April 24, 2015, 10:17am

Problem was solved. I had a trial account. After payment plugin successfully compiled.

Michael, ajaymccaleb-work thank you for your help & I’m sorry that took your time on such a trifle :)

Michael_W · April 24, 2015, 3:25pm

Glad you got it fixed.

We’ll keep an eye out for similar reports. Thank you for posting back with what the problem was.
