Android Question onActivityResult with Inline Java

[cambopad]

Dear all,

Today I tried to access a third party SDK using Inline Java but got stuck with onActivityResult error.
I really don't know where to fix this!

This is the original java code:

static final int PLAY_REWARDED_VIDEO = 1;
    public void showadvideo() {

        String publisherId = "32740";
        String profileId = "365";
        String subid1 = "demo_subid1";

        Intent intent = RewardedVideoActivity.getIntentForRewardedVideo(this, publisherId, profileId, subid1);

        startActivityForResult(intent, PLAY_REWARDED_VIDEO);

    }
   


    public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        BA.Log("onActivityResult");
        // PLAY_REWARDED_VIDEO was declared earlier to identify intent request
        if (requestCode == PLAY_REWARDED_VIDEO && resultCode == RESULT_OK)
        {
            // user was successfully credited
            Log.d("AdscendMedia_", "User was credited");
        }
        else if (requestCode == PLAY_REWARDED_VIDEO && resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED)
        {
            // user was not credited
            Log.d("AdscendMedia_", "User was not credited");
        }
    }

When I tried to compile the app, B4A showed me the following message:

Compiling code.    (0.02s)
Compiling layouts code.    (0.00s)
Generating R file.    (1.04s)
Compiling generated Java code.    Error
javac 1.7.0_79
src\com\adscendmedia\helloadscend1\main.java:529: error: method onActivityResult(int,int,Intent) is already defined in class main
    public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
                ^
1 error

So it says "error: method onActivityResult(int,int,Intent) is already defined in class main", but I checked my codes and found no method that is named onActivityResult.

Can anyone help me to solve this problem? I have learnt a lot about using Inline Java from helpful people on this forum and I feel very happy Please help me fix this issue!

onActivityResult() is called when controls returns to your Activity after your Activity had started another Activity intending to get a result back from that Activity. That is, A starts B, intending to get a result back from B. When B is completed, control returns to A and A's onActivityResult() method is called. This method is already a standard part of Activities so you can't add another "copy" of that method. I think what you should do is test for the starting Intent when your Activity starts and if it contains info about "PLAY_REWARDED_VIDEO" or whatever, then deal with it accordingly.

Thanks you @Roycefer! Really appreciate your explaination about onActivityResult.

Now, I can compile by removing the Void onActivityResult from the code, but the main problem is that How can I get the result after the activity B finished?

In this case, I think the requestCode, resultCode ,and data are the things I need. Where is the onActivityResult event?

 

[Roycefer]

You won't be able to directly manage the onActivityResult() event. Instead, you should test for the Intent that started your Activity.

Dim data as Intent = Activity.GetStartingIntent
'do something with data to see if it has for what you're looking...

If your Activity is started because another Activity returned a result to it, that "data" Intent will hold that result and info.

I try this code in Activity_resume event but I got no data at all. All I got in the log is:

(Intent) Intent { act=android.intent.action.MAIN cat=[android.intent.category.LAUNCHER] flg=0x10000000 cmp=com.adscendmedia.helloadscend1/.main }

So I would like to explain my situation.

In activity A: I have a button to show a reward video. Pressing that button will show reward video activity provided by the SDK. The code to show the video is :

 public void showadvideo() {

        String publisherId = "32740";
        String profileId = "365";
        String subid1 = "demo_subid1";

        Intent intent = RewardedVideoActivity.getIntentForRewardedVideo(this, publisherId, profileId, subid1);

        startActivityForResult(intent, PLAY_REWARDED_VIDEO);

    }

The video started to show and finish showing.....then when I pressed the Back button on my phone to return to Activity A, I hope to get data from that reward video activity. So I tried to put your code in Activity_resume and log the data, but I got something just like I mentioned above. Did I do something wrong?

 

[Roycefer]

Try this and see if any of this information is of any use to you:

Dim data As Intent = Activity.GetStartingIntent
Log("data.Action: " & data.Action)
Log("data.Extras: " & data.ExtrasToString)
Log("data.Data: " & data.GetData)
Log("data.Flags: " & data.Flags)

Also see if any of that logged information looks like what the SDK examples say you should be getting.

 

[cambopad]

I tried it, and none of those info are what I need as mentioned in the SDK.

What I got:

data.Action: android.intent.action.MAIN
data.Extras: no extras
data.Data: null
data.Flags: 268435456

So the information I need are:

-requestCode
-resultCode

I thinks this two information will be useful to achieve the task according to the SDK.

For example, I write this in B4A:

If requrestCode=1 and resultCode=1 then    ' resultCode=1 means RESULT_OK
   Log("User was credited!")
Else if requestCode=1 and resultCode=0 then   'resultCode=0 means RESULT_CANCELED
   Log("User was not credited!")
End if

Have you looked at this thread: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/java-guide-using-onactivityresult.7297/ ?

 

[cambopad]

Thanks for the link! I just read it, but the guide contains all java codes that are hard to understand to me!

 

[Roycefer]

Looking at that post, this is the basic outline of what your inline Java should look like. You'll have a global variable of type IOnActivityResult. You'll pass it (along with an Intent) to ba.startActivityForResult() (instead of just startActivityForResult()). You'll do that by calling showVideo() with JavaObject.

private IOnActivityResult ion;
static final int PLAY_REWARDED_VIDEO = 1;

public void showVideo(String eventName) 
{
  String publisherId = "32740";
  String profileId = "365";
  String subid1 = "demo_subid1";
  Intent i = RewardedVideoActivity.getIntentForRewardedVideo(this, publisherId, profileId, subid1);

  ion = new IOnActivityResult() 
  {
     @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
     @Override
     public void ResultArrived(int resultCode, Intent intent) 
     {
       boolean ok = false;
       if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) ok = true;
       processBA.raiseEvent2(null, true, eventName + "_videoresults", false, ok);
     }
  };
  ba.startActivityForResult(ion, i);
}

It implements the ResultArrived() method which will raise an event with the following signature in your B4A code.

Sub EventName_VideoResult(ok as Boolean)

Obviously this is wildly untested. You'll probably have to study it to figure out how to merge this code with the code from your first post in this thread.

Thank you @Roycefer for the codes snippet ! I will test this now and come back here to let you know the result!
