Hello Everyone,

I am trying to convert the following java code to B4A

1:
Expand Collapse Copy 
PrintTask printTask = new PrintTask();
printTask.setPrintBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(), R.drawable.printer));
Printer.getInstance().startPrint(printTask, new PrinterCallback() {

2:
Expand Collapse Copy 
// PrinterTask.Java

package com.pos.device.printer;

import android.graphics.Bitmap;

public class PrintTask {
  public int mStep;
 
  public Bitmap mBitmap;
 
  public PrintTask() {
    throw new RuntimeException();
  }
 
  public int getGray() {
    throw new RuntimeException();
  }
 
  public void setGray(int gray) {
    throw new RuntimeException();
  }
 
  public void addFeedPaper(int step) {
    throw new RuntimeException();
  }
 
  public void setPrintCanvas(PrintCanvas printCanvas) {
    throw new RuntimeException();
  }
 
  public void setPrintBitmap(Bitmap origBitmap) {
    throw new RuntimeException();
  }

  public void setPrintBuffer(byte[] buffer) {
    throw new RuntimeException();
  }
}

B4X:
Expand Collapse Copy 
    Dim bitmap As B4XBitmap = TextToBitmap("Text to Bitmap", 20, xui.Color_Black, "CENTER")
    Dim jo As JavaObject
    Try
        jo = jo.InitializeNewInstance("com.pos.device.printer.PrintTask",Null)
        jo.RunMethod("setPrintBitmap", Array As Object(bitmap))
    Catch
        Log(LastException)
    End Try

This can not be the right code. All the code is doing is to create a RuntimeException.

Is the code editor collapsed?
Can you click the minus button to reveal the code that may be hidden?

i guess the decompile just fails to decompile the jar and just create this methods.
A point more not to use a decompiler and instead use the sourcejars if there are available....

Why decompile the library?
Have you try interact with the jar using #AdditionalJars and JavaObject?

I think InitializeNewInstance is correct.

Need to figure out this error.

Maybe try
B4X:
Expand Collapse Copy 
    Dim pt As JavaObject
    pt.InitializeStatic("com.pos.device.printer.PrintTask")
    pt.RunMethod("setPrintBitmap",Array("load_your_image_here"))

B4X:
Expand Collapse Copy 
    Try
        Dim jo As JavaObject
        jo.InitializeNewInstance("com.pos.device.printer.PrintTask", Null)
        jo.RunMethod("setPrintBitmap", Array As Object(bitmap))
    Catch
        Log(LastException)
    End Try

Usually I will try to Log the object to see it is successfully initialized.

There is an Receiver expected here.

You need to have an receiver for PrintTask i guess.
