Splash works, but doesn't display app name after changing minimumsdk.
Closed this issue · 29 comments
As it says in the title, I changed my app to use API level 10 and my previously fully working splash stopped changin 'Application Name' to the app's name. As an example on my account there is github.com/rhg/sandbox which displays the bug. Thank you for saving me from the horrors of java (well partly).
It was related to a bug with bundling resources into Neko. I wasn't able to implement that reliably, so I gave up this idea and moved all the splash stuff into main application.
lein-droid 0.2.0-beta2 and neko 3.0.0-beta5 is a way to go now. You can check lein-droid/sample project to see how splash can be used right now (you will have to copy all resources and SplashActivity.java into your project). This is less elegant, but more solid and editable.
Please write back when you do this.
I keep getting package R not found. I did move SplashActivity.java to my package including the first line. Anything else to change?
Compare your project with this sample https://github.com/clojure-android/lein-droid/tree/master/sample
It should SplashActivity.java, resources from res/ folder and slight changes to AndroidManifest.xml.
What is the exact error you are getting?
Oh, and by the way, you can replace lein droid build && lein droid apk && lein droid install && lein droid run ... with just lein droid doall.
Thank you for the doall metatask suggestion, i added it.
These are the errors: http://pastebin.com/5vxHSDh7
I pushed my changes to a new branch: https://github.com/rhg/sandbox/tree/issue/neko5
also the splash does not spin before these changes.
Agrh, stupid me, I forgot to push the changes to github.
Please copy resources, manifest and SplashActivity.java from here https://github.com/clojure-android/lein-droid/blob/master/sample . Change package name to your one, of course.
hmm, it builds with an import for my R class
EDIT: now it crashes on load with the logcat saying class not found: splashactivty
Does your AndroidManifest.xml expects .SplashActivity or neko.splash.SplashActivity? It should be the former.
It is the former.

Meh... What if you just create a new project with the latest lein-droid 0.2.0-beta1, check if it works that way, and then add your changes?
now i get this: http://pastebin.com/RYcDpfJA. sigh i checked it has no typos in the names.
Wait, damn, I let you down again. It is lein-droid '0.2.0-beta2. Try creating new project with it and see what happens. Also, I'm not sure, but can you omit numbers in package name?
Man, I'm so sorry that I wasted so much of your time.
It was already beta2, and also I did change the package name, nope same error. and no problem otherwise my repo would have no commits right now.
OK, let's investigate step by step.
Do you have a file src/java/com/androidarea51/rhg135/sandbox/SplashActivity.java? What are its contents?
Not anymore, src/java/com/rhg/sandgbox/SplashActivity.java tho, https://github.com/rhg/sandbox/blob/issue/neko5/src/java/com/rhg/sandbox/SplashActivity.java
Your SplashActivity.java still tries to call com.androidarea51.rhg135.sandbox.MAIN intent. In your AndroidManifest.xml file you have filter for test.leindroid.sample.MAIN. Bring them to the common value and try again.
Still no-go, but i did find lein droi complained about a class named com.rhg.sandbox, but on a clean compile it went fine. also i did fix that but the issue seems to be SplashActivity is not in the apk
EDIT: even on a new new project it fails with the same exception
In your main.clj there is a line
(defactivity com.rhg.sandbox
How about putting an activity name there? :-) Just to be sure, here's what it should look like:
(defactivity com.rhg.sandbox.RadioControllerActivity
Still no, but interestingly a brand new app from lein-droid beta2 also
crashes, which means either my device is acting weird or the template is
broken.

A brand new app created with beta2 works on both my devices. Can you try it on emulator? Also, what is the exact error right now?
Still no, i tried on 4.1 to be sure and still same classnotfound exception,
https://www.refheap.com/18165
At this point i may just skip the splash or code it myself in java. :(

This is really sick right now. What version of SDK Build Tools do you use?
18.0.1

Do you have a file com/aa51/sandbox/SplashActivity.class in your target folder?
yes

OK, now we should figure out if the class is present in the APK. Can you download this tool https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/ and look for SplashActivity.smali in the contents of the application? The command goes like this:
java -jar apktool.jar d someapk-debug.apk
@rhg, I wonder if you were able to solve this strange problem. Can you comment, please?
I wasn't but in the end I figured while clj is great, the startup time,
size, and the fact I'm not good at making apps nor at clj makes it a bad
idea. Haven't made any app since.

I see. Well, maybe someday when we'll are able to improve the startup time I will welcome you back! Sorry for the time you had to waste.
Meanwhile I close the issue as "can't reproduce".
