Android Question B4XSerializator issue/bug

[techknight]

I am trying to send a custom type object that contains a map using the B4XSerializer thing.

But I keep getting this error:

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: This method does not support arrays of primitives.

Here is the code:

    Dim DataPacket As StatCommand
    DataPacket.Initialize
    DataPacket.Command = "RosterInfo" 'Sending roster tables only.
    Dim RosterMap As Map
    RosterMap.Initialize
    RosterMap.Put("HomeRoster", HomeRoster)
    RosterMap.Put("GuestRoster", GuestRoster)
    RosterMap.Put("PlayersOnCourt", PlayersOnCourt)
    DataPacket.Data = RosterMap  
  
    If Remote1Status = 3 Then 'Send roster tables to stat remote 1.
        If AstreamRemote.IsInitialized = True Then AstreamRemote.Write(ser.ConvertObjectToBytes(DataPacket))
    End If
  
    If Remote2Status = 3 Then 'Send roster tables to stat remote 2.
        If AstreamRemote2.IsInitialized = True Then AstreamRemote2.Write(ser.ConvertObjectToBytes(DataPacket))
    End If

thoughts?

I think I found the problem. my PlayersOnCourt is actually an array of two ints. So its sending the pointer instead of the whole array.

Read the documentation: The following types are supported: Lists, Arrays of bytes and Arrays of objects, Maps, Strings, primitive types and user defined types.
As the error message says, arrays of primitives (except of bytes) are not supported.

Use an array of objects instead, or better use a List.

The fact that arrays of objects are supported but not array of primitives sounds strange, or not?

I dont even know what a primitive is. Googling it didnt really help either. As I have mentioned in the past, I came from VB6 land where none of that existed.

Let me again search for you: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/pages/results/?query=primitives

The second search result includes the answer.
