Always crashes

[tim424]

I got this error when the sketch tries to start on my device:

FATAL EXCEPTION: Animation Thread
Process: processing.test.generatemachine_android, PID: 14576
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: This library works only on Android.

I put the manifest and device filter in the correct folder and the sketch tries to run if i connect my arduino, but also crashes then.

it happens even if i only put println(Serial.list(this)); in the code.

I have a galaxy s3 neo with android 4.4.2 and tried it with a simple arduino uno.

Could you post your processing code including println(Serial.list(this)); as well?

[tim424]

import com.yourinventit.processing.android.serial.*;

void setup()
{
println(Serial.list(this));
}

void draw()
{

}

[dbaba]

Thanks. Which version of Processing are you using?

[tim424]

3.0.1

[dbaba]

I understood. The library depends on 2.x and you got the error.
I will update the version later and close this ticket when I finish the task.
Until then, use 2.x and your code should work.

[tim424]

thanks alot it works in 2.03 :)!

I tested your new release (develop branches) and I got some error like this.

• Test Environment

Processing Version : 3.0.1

Serial Target Device : Arduino UNO

Android Target Device

• LG G-Pad (Android 5.0.1) : Working well but sometimes stopped!
• LG G3 (Android 6.0) : Never Working
  ; I could not capture error message, LG G3 did not support Wi-Fi ADB.

[dbaba]

Processing 3.x won't work on the release 0.0.x version of the library.
Please try 0.1.0-alpha though I couldn't test it on Processing 3 with Android mode as the mode didn't work for me... Anyway, please try it and let me know if you still have issues.

The built binary "AndroidSerial-distribution.zip" is available at 0.1.0-alpha page.

[kcchang61]

Thanks for your update!
Could you check the link of 0.1.0-alpha page? Browser show me the "Page not found!".

Current link --> https://github.com/releases/tag/0.1.0-alpha

[dbaba]

Sorry, here it is.

https://github.com/inventit/processing-android-serial/releases/tag/0.1.0-alpha

[kcchang61]

Thanks for your release.

This is my test result and almost same like above.

Processing Version : 3.0.2 (Recently Updated from 3.0.1)
Serial Target Device : Arduino (Baud Rate : 19200 bps)

LG G-Pro (Android 4.2.2) : Working well but sometimes stopped!
LG G-Pad (Android 5.0.1) : Working well but sometimes stopped!
LG G3 (Android 6.0) : Always do not working.. (Error!)

When I checked with USB Device Info (Android App), looks like as follow.

LG G3 (6.0)
Device List(1)
/dev/bus/usb/001/002 --> Arduino V-ID 2341

LG G-Pad (5.0.1)
Device List(2)
/dev/bus/usb/001/001 --> USB Hub (0x9)
/dev/bus/usb/001/002 --> Ardudino V-ID 2341

LG G-Pro (4.2.2)
Device List(4)
/dev/bus/usb/002/001 --> USB Hub (0x09)
/dev/bus/usb/001/002 --> Usb Class information.. V-ID 05c6
/dev/bus/usb/001/001 --> USB Hub (0x09)
/dev/bus/usb/002/002 --> Arduino V-ID 2341

• So, I need to downgrade G3 Android version from 6.0 to 5.X and then
  I will update my test result later again! Best Regards!

I am getting the same error:

FATAL EXCEPTION: Animation Thread java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: This library works only on Android. at com.yourinventit.processing.android.serial.SerialCommunicatorFacory.create(SerialCommunicatorFacory.java:67) at com.yourinventit.processing.android.serial.Serial.<init>(Serial.java:41) at com.yourinventit.processing.android.serial.Serial.<init>(Serial.java:50) at com.yourinventit.processing.android.serial.Serial.list(Serial.java:263) at processing.test.sketch_160719d.sketch_160719d.setup(sketch_160719d.java:33) at processing.core.PApplet.handleDraw(Unknown Source) at processing.core.PGraphicsAndroid2D.requestDraw(Unknown Source) at processing.core.PApplet.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:856)

I use processing 3.1.1 and 0.1.0 alpha version of the library.
Anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

[dbaba]

I'm currently working on updating android-usb-serial library.
But took time to test the update because of unexpected error in Processing 3.1.1 and Android-mode 0250.
I'll update the ticket when I finish the work.

[dbaba]

Sorry for the delay. Just released the latest library. Could you please try a zip file at the release page?

[goutham93]

Im getting this error when I try this simple code:

import com.yourinventit.processing.android.serial.*;
void setup()
{
println(Serial.list(this)); // print a list of available serial ports

}

Any idea why

[q2dg]

Are you running your code on Android??
The error message says: "This library works only on Android"
