Java Constructor not getting called while using QAndroidJNIObject
-
I am working on modifying the Flickr application demonstrated by Jens Bache-Wiig at "Qt Developer Days in Munich in 2011":https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1pnEhyF1pg
I am trying to share the image(Experimenting with plain text first) using ACTION_SEND Intent. My calls are passing through from QML to C++ and it also passes the Java function. However, it fails because the java code can't find the instance of the QtActivity (From the java file below, I only get the log from m_instance== null. The log for the constructor is never printed.) I have tried to compare my code with the NotificationManager example and I am not able to find anything that would prevent the java constructor from being called.
What am I missing or doing wrong?
QT Class file
@#include "androidfunctions.h"
#include <QtAndroidExtras>
#include <QDebug>AndroidFunctions::AndroidFunctions(QObject *parent) :
QObject(parent)
{
connect(this, SIGNAL(ShareContentChanged()), this, SLOT(shareContentToAndroid()));
}void AndroidFunctions::setShareContent(const QString &ShareContent)
{
if(m_sharecontent == ShareContent){
return;
}qDebug() << "ShareContent set"; m_sharecontent = ShareContent; m_mimetype="text/plain"; emit ShareContentChanged();}
QString AndroidFunctions::ShareContent() const
{
qDebug() << "ShareContent read";
return m_sharecontent;
}void AndroidFunctions::shareContentToAndroid()
{
qDebug() << "Sharing Content to AndroidFunctions";
QAndroidJniObject javaShareContent = QAndroidJniObject::fromString(m_sharecontent);
QAndroidJniObject javaMimeType = QAndroidJniObject::fromString(m_mimetype);
qDebug() << "Declaring AndroidFunctions";
QAndroidJniObject andfunc("uk/me/samaria/flickshare/AndroidFuctions");
andfunc.callStaticMethod<void>("uk/me/samaria/flickrshare/AndroidFunctions",
"shareText",
"(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)V",
javaMimeType.object<jstring>(),
javaShareContent.object<jstring>()

Found the solution to my problem.
The android:name in the <activity> section of the manifest should be changed to my java Class. uk.me.samaria.flickrshare.AndroidFunctions instead of org.qtproject.qt5.android.bindings.QtActivity
Now that, I am able to share text, onward to share an Image and see if that works.
