Android Question [SOLVED] How-to covert jar function with inline @Override to JavaObject?

[chuath]

I am trying to access a jar file "stock-chart.jar" using B4A with JavaObject

The example for this can be found here
http://stockchartview.org/wiki/android/getting-started/

I've solved most of the problem faced and left this one which i can't find any example to rely on to use in JavaObject

The java code i am having problem with is this

price.setPointAdapter(new IPointAdapter()
        {
            private final StockPoint fPoint = new StockPoint();
            @Override
            public int getPointCount()
            {
                return points.length;
            }
            @Override
            public AbstractPoint getPointAt(int i)
            {
                Point p = points[i];
                fPoint.setValues(p.o, p.h, p.l, p.c);
                return fPoint;
            }
        });

The closest solution i could think of is to use the CreateEvent

Dim StockPriceSeries As JavaObject

StockChartView.InitializeNewInstance("org.stockchart.StockChartView", Array(GetContext))
PriceArea = StockChartView.RunMethodJO("addArea", Null)
StockPriceSeries = StockChartView.RunMethodJO("addSeries", Array(PriceArea))
StockPriceSeries.RunMethod("setPointAdapter" , Array(StockChartView.CreateEvent("org.stockchart.series.Series.IPointAdapter", "StockPointAdapter", Null)))

It can compile without any errors. The question now is i am not sure how do i define this "StockPointAdapter"

From the java code it looks like a class as there are multiple functions under it.
Therefore calling it as StockPointAdapter_Event might not be appropriate.
Maybe i should be using StockPointAdapter_getPointCount and StockPointAdapter_getPointAt ?
or do i create a class module for it?

The error log in B4A 5.5 indicate that i have a NullPointerException

java.lang.NullPointerException: Expected to unbox a 'int' primitive type but was returned null
    at $Proxy0.getPointCount(Unknown Source)
    at org.stockchart.series.Series.getPointCount(Series.java:405)
    at org.stockchart.series.Series.hasPoints(Series.java:282)
    at org.stockchart.StockChartView.calcAutoValues(StockChartView.java:1167)

can any kind soul please point me in the correct direction? thanks.

No.

Where is the event sub?

 

[chuath]

I do not have an event sub yet. does not have any clues on how to carry on.

See the CreateEvent documentation: https://www.b4x.com/b4j/help/javaobject.html#javaobject

I would like to clarify 3 things.

1) Does it means that the CreateEvent approach is correct in this instance?
2) In the JAVA code, there are 2 override function within it. How do i achieve this inside the event sub? Sub within Sub?
3) I am familiar with event sub. But my problem is the 2 override functions "getPointCount" and "getPointAt". need help on this.

Thanks.

It looks correct. The MethodName parameter holds the name of the method that was called. Based on this value you need to return the correct result.

Thanks ! I think i've got it working (sort of) already.

Sub StockPointAdapter_Event (MethodName As String, Args As Object) As Object
   
    If MethodName = "getPointCount" Then
        Return 0
    Else
    If MethodName = "getPointAt" Then
        Return Null
    End If        
    End If
End Sub

Something that looks like this.
