SetConfig issue

[amitashkenazi]

I try to call the setConfiguration method.
I receive the following error when

console.log("Error: " + data.ErrorMessage)

02-14 12:31:21.519: I/chromium(19014): [INFO:CONSOLE(50)] "Error: undefined", source: file:///android_asset/www/js/service.js (50)
02-14 12:31:21.529: I/chromium(19014): [INFO:CONSOLE(51)] "

console.log(JSON.stringify(data));

{"TimerMilliseconds":60000,"LatestResult":{},"Configuration":{},"ErrorCode":-99,"Success":false,"RegisteredForBootStart":false,"TimerEnabled":false,"ServiceRunning":true}", source: file:///android_asset/www/js/service.js (51)

Can you tell me what is the reason for the error?

Is there anything else within the logcat? I would expect to see further information in the logcat or within the data (which seems to be missing).

Within the logcat, look for either:

"Processing config JSON from background service failed"
or
"setConfiguration failed"

Thank you for the quick response!
On the last failure I get the following:

Could you provide the contents of the setConfig() from your service class (equivalent of MyService.java)?

I suspect it is throwing an error while processing your config which is not being handled locally (with setConfig) thus is being returned to the plugin as a RemoteException.

[amitashkenazi]

java side:
protected void setConfig(JSONObject config) {
fifo = new LinkedList();
boolean pubnubFlag = false;
try {
if (config.has("pubnub")){
if(config.getString("pubnub").equals("active")) {
pubnubFlag = true;
String notifyMessage = "";
//notifyUserBigView(notifyMessage);

            } else {
                pubnubFlag = false;
            }
            if(config.getString("pubnub").equals("on")) {
                notifyUserService();
            }

        }

    } catch (JSONException e) {
    }
    if(pubnubFlag) {
        subscribe();            
    }else{
        pubnub.unsubscribe("hello");    
    }

    Log.d(TAG, "get config");

}

I'd suspect that your getting an exception in there. First I'd comment out the entire contents of the setConfig to confirm it is causing the exception.

Assuming it is;

Add a Log.d on the JSONException block. Also add try/ catch round your subscribe/ unsubscribe. Basically saturate the method with Log.d to narrow down what is throwing the exception

[amitashkenazi]

OK.
I tried to take it step by step.
The first thing that I added to the setConfig function which cause the Error was the "notifyUserService();" function
This function trigger a notification as followed:

private void notifyUserService() {

    Intent i = new Intent();
    i.setAction("com....");
    i.putExtra("id", Integer.toString(NOTIFICATION_ID));
    PendingIntent resultPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, i,PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT );
    Uri uri= RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
    NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this).
            setSmallIcon(R.drawable.logo2).
            setContentTitle("....").
            setContentText(".....");
    mBuilder.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent);
    final Notification notification = mBuilder.build();
    startForeground(NOTIFICATION_ID, notification);
    notification.notify();

}

This caused the error:

[Red-Folder]

You could really do with getting the actual exception. If you wrap you notifications function with a try/ catch then log.d the exception message and stack trade that will help identify why your code is failing.

[amitashkenazi]

I fixed it!
added synchronized before firing the notification,
synchronized(notification){
notification.notify();
}

[Red-Folder]

Good to here.
