Hello, I'm new to B4A and I wanted to get the SSID of the wifi network ... I found some of this code here ... but I can't get it to work ... can someone help me? Thanks in advance

Sub Process_Globals
    'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
    'These variables can be accessed from all modules.

    Dim R As Reflector
End Sub

Sub GetWIFIType As String
 
    'Requires Permission to be added with the Manifest Editor:
    '                         AddPermission (android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE)
 
    R.Target=R.GetContext
    Try
        R.Target=r.RunMethod2("getSystemService","connectivity","java.lang.String")
        R.Target=R.RunMethod("getActiveNetworkInfo")
        R.Target=R.RunMethod("getTypeName")
        Return R.Target
    Catch
        Return "none"
    End Try
End Sub

 Sub GetWIFIName As String
 
    'Requires Permission to be added with the Manifest Editor:
    '                         AddPermission (android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE)
 
    R.Target=R.GetContext
    Try
        R.Target=r.RunMethod2("getSystemService","wifi","java.lang.String")
        R.Target=R.RunMethod("getConnectionInfo")
        R.Target=R.RunMethod("getSSID")
        Return R.Target
    Catch
        Return "none"
    End Try

What happens when you run this code? Remove the Try / Catch block and post the error message.

Additional changes in Android 10 that are not related to the targetSdkVersion value:

• StartActivity from a service will not work if there is no visible activity. As a workaround you can request the special "draw over apps" permission: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/draw-on-top-of-other-apps-permission.90513/
  It will allow StartActivity to work.
• None of the device unique ids are exposed. The only id available is the advertising id: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/101050/#content

This includes the SSID too i fear.

This includes the SSID too i fear.

Thanks, but I didn't realize what I had to do ...

 

[Erel]

What exactly are you trying to do? Why do you need the network name?

 

[AUGUSTO CAVALEIRO]

First of all thanks, in an application that I am developing certain features are only active for certain SSID names
Thanks again
