I'm attempting to convert the code located at How to use signalr in android Service from java to c# and have been making some progress. I'm now stuck at the final method. The java code is:
private void startSignalR() {
Platform.loadPlatformComponent(new AndroidPlatformComponent());
mInstance.setmHubConnection();
mInstance.setHubProxy();
ClientTransport clientTransport = new ServerSentEventsTransport(mInstance.mHubConnection.getLogger());
SignalRFuture<Void> signalRFuture = mInstance.mHubConnection.start(clientTransport);
try {
signalRFuture.get();
} catch (InterruptedException | ExecutionException e) {
Log.e("SimpleSignalR", e.toString());
return;
}
mInstance.sendMessage(MainActivity.unm,"Hello All!");
String CLIENT_METHOD_BROADAST_MESSAGE = "recievedMessage";
mInstance.mHubProxy.on(CLIENT_METHOD_BROADAST_MESSAGE,
new SubscriptionHandler2<String,LoginInfo>() {
#Override
public void run(final String msg,final LoginInfo loginInfo) {
final String finalMsg = loginInfo.FullName + " says " + loginInfo.Password;
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(MY_ACTION);
intent.putExtra("DATAPASSED", finalMsg);
sendBroadcast(intent);
}
}
, String.class,LoginInfo.class);
}
Using a java to c# converter, this translated to:
private void startSignalR()
{
Platform.loadPlatformComponent(new AndroidPlatformComponent());
mInstance.setmHubConnection();
mInstance.setHubProxy();
ClientTransport clientTransport = new ServerSentEventsTransport(mInstance.mHubConnection.Logger);
SignalRFuture<Void> signalRFuture = mInstance.mHubConnection.Start(clientTransport);
try
{
signalRFuture.get();
}
catch (Exception e) when (e is InterruptedException || e is ExecutionException)
{
// Log.e("SimpleSignalR", e.ToString());
return;
}
mInstance.sendMessage("", "Hello All!");
string CLIENT_METHOD_BROADAST_MESSAGE = "recievedMessage";
//String CLIENT_METHOD_BROADAST_MESSAGE = "messageReceived";
mInstance.mHubProxy.on(CLIENT_METHOD_BROADAST_MESSAGE, new SubscriptionHandler2AnonymousInnerClass(this)
, typeof(string), typeof(LoginInfo));
}
private class SubscriptionHandler2AnonymousInnerClass : SubscriptionHandler2<string, LoginInfo>
{
private readonly SignalRSrv outerInstance;
public SubscriptionHandler2AnonymousInnerClass(SignalRSrv outerInstance)
{
this.outerInstance = outerInstance;
}
//JAVA TO C# CONVERTER WARNING: 'final' parameters are not available in .NET:
//ORIGINAL LINE: #Override public void run(final String msg,final LoginInfo loginInfo)
public override void run(string msg, LoginInfo loginInfo)
{
//JAVA TO C# CONVERTER WARNING: The original Java variable was marked 'final':
//ORIGINAL LINE: final String finalMsg = loginInfo.FullName + " says " + loginInfo.Password;
string finalMsg = loginInfo.FullName + " says " + loginInfo.Password;
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.Action = MY_ACTION;
intent.PutExtra("DATAPASSED", finalMsg);
sendBroadcast(intent);
}
}
This, of course, generated several errors in Visual Studio 2017.
First, the line Platform.loadPlatformComponent(new AndroidPlatformComponent()); generated the error Platform is inaccessible due to its protection level. Platform in Xamarin for Visual Studio 2017 is indeed protected and is a internal class in System and I cannot change this, so I'm at a loss as how to proceed with it. The same line generates the error The type or namespace name 'AndroidPlatformComponent' could not be found, these errors a numerous and not unexpected I just can't find an equivalent to AndroidPlatformComponent in Visual Studio 2017 so I'm at a loss as how to solve this one.
Next, on this line ClientTransport clientTransport = new ServerSentEventsTransport(mInstance.mHubConnection.Logger); generates the error The type or namespace name 'ClientTransport' could not be found, I was also unable to find an equivalent to this and again I'm at a loss as to proceed. Also on this line, .Logger is not defined for the hub connection, apparently it's .getLogger() in java, I was unable to find an equivalent for this one as well.
Next the line SignalRFuture<Void> signalRFuture = mInstance.mHubConnection.Start(clientTransport);' generates the error 1The type or namespace name 'SignalRFuture<>' could not be found, this seemes to be specific to SignalR, again, I am unable to find an equivalent.
The next one has me totally stumped, the line private class SubscriptionHandler2AnonymousInnerClass : SubscriptionHandler2<string, LoginInfo> generates the error The type or namespace name 'SubscriptionHandler2<,>' could not be found. I've looked everywhere online and read up on AnonymousInnerClass, but it was not help with this.
I'm hoping that the users here are more familiar with SignalR and the differences between c# functionality and java functionality. I'm not at all familiar with java nor am I familiar with SignalR and foreground services.
As it turns out, the last method in the java code I was converting was wiring up an event to pass the message received from the hub to the activity. In c# / Visual Studio (2017), that's done very differently which is why I didn't understand/recognize what was going on. So I created a handler in C# and execute a popup message for the message. This in itself may pose problems, but at least I know what's going on. This is the code I wrote to start SignalR from within the service and WireUp the handler:
private void startSignalR()
{
// Company, Department, and section are private variables
// their values are pulled from the intent bundle
// in the OnBind method, that code is:
// Bundle bundlee = intent.GetBundleExtra("TheBundle");
// MyUser = bundlee.GetParcelable("MyUser") as User;
// This information is put into the bundle when the user is logged in.
// I then pass that information to the SignalR client
// when I set the hub connection and placed on the querystring to the hub.
mInstance.setmHubConnection(username, firstname,lastname,company,department,section);
mInstance.setHubProxy();
try
{
// Connect the client to the hup
mInstance.mHubConnection.Start();
// Set the event handler
mInstance.WireUp();
}
catch (System.Exception e) when (e is InterruptedException || e is ExecutionException)
{
ShowMessage("Error: + e.Message)
}
}
This is the WireUp code, this is a method in the client code:
public void WireUp()
{
// set the event handler
mHubProxy.On("broadcastMessage", (string platform, string message) =>
{
if (OnMessageReceived != null)
OnMessageReceived(this, string.Format("{0}: {1}", platform, message));
});
}
As I had anticipated, the popup message won't appear when the app is in the background, so I'm researching a workaround

I'm trying to make an app on android studio that can customize the user's hotspot name (SSID), but found that WifiConfiguration was deprecated. I'm not sure about the difference between "NetworkSpecifier" and "WifiNetworkSuggestion", and how to use them to fix this. I'm new to android studio and I couldn't find a similar solution. Can anyone teach me what should I do? Or is it possible to customize it?
`
public void configureHotspot(String name) {
WifiConfiguration apConfig = new WifiConfiguration();
apConfig.SSID = name;
apConfig.allowedKeyManagement.set(WifiConfiguration.KeyMgmt.WPA_PSK);
try {
Method setConfigMethod = mWifiManager.getClass().getMethod("setWifiApConfiguration", WifiConfiguration.class);
boolean status = (boolean) setConfigMethod.invoke(mWifiManager, apConfig);
Log.d(TAG, "setWifiApConfiguration - success? " + status);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Error in configureHotspot");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
`
This part of the code is from this example: "https://github.com/aegis1980/WifiHotSpot", in "MyOreoWifiManager.java".
(this is the only example I found that can successfully turn on my phone's hotspot.)
I think I could keep the try-and-catch part because "WifiManager" is not deprecated, so maybe the problem is at apConfig only.
I'm following [this][1] documentation to connect to api, I want to build a JavaFX app that you can enter a word and it's retrieves it from api and I wanted to test the feature before displaying contents on GUI. Howerer I got this exception that the words is not found while I tested endpoint in their website and that word had definitions. I'm pretty new to using API perhaps I missed something that isn't shown in the documentation?
Here is my code:
public void testDetailsWords(String word,String detail) {
//String word = "lovely"; // Word
//String detail = "definitions"; // Detail
TimeZone.setDefault(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));
apiClient = Configuration.getDefaultApiClient();
apiClient.setBasePath("https://www.wordsapi.com/");
// configure authentications
Authentication auth;
auth = apiClient.getAuthentication("Default");
((ApiKeyAuth) auth).setApiKey(Apikey);
try {
WordsApi wordsApi = new WordsApi();
DetailsResponse response = wordsApi.details(word, detail);
System.out.println(response);
} catch (ApiException e) {
System.out.printf("ApiException caught: %s\n", e.getMessage());
}
}
Here is my Controller code :
#FXML
private void handleDefinitions(ActionEvent event) throws IOException {
String word =definitionsfield.getText();
String detail= "definitions";
apiCall.testDetailsWords(word,detail);
}
I would be grateful for the help.

It's seems that tutorial that I tried following is very misleading which is very dissapoing, but I've learned my lesson now .
I decided to use Unirest to get request and it's worked perfectly.
If you stumble upon the link it's better not to follow that tutorial
first post here. I've tried to look for a question I have but no luck so I figure I ask it myself.
I am working on 2 programs. An Android app in Java and a C# Windows Form App on windows. They are both simply scorekeeping calculators to keep track of the score of 2 players.
The goal of the 2 programs is to use a Bluetooth connection to send data back and forth between each other so that they are "synced". Android app is a client, c# app is a server (32feet library).
Using the Bluetooth Chat example on Android and some code i put together in VS, I managed to get the 2 programs to connect and send and receive data to each other, great!
But now my main goal is that I need to find out a way to take the incoming data coming from the Android app and change the appropriate labels/text on the windows app.
So for example:
on the Windows App, there are 2 Labels: one for Player1, one for Player2 that both say "10".
On the Android App, I have 2 buttons that separately subtract from either Player1 or Player2's score.
On the android app, if I touch the button that subtracts(-) 1 from Player1 it would be 9. I now want that change to apply to Player1's score label on the windows app, where it would also show 9.
I then want the same thing for Player2's score.
This is the best I can describe my goal, and I would like to know if it's possible, and if so, be pointed in the right direction.
Here is some provided code for what I have so far:
C# windows form app:
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (serverStarted == true)
{
updateUI("Server already started");
return;
}
if (radioButton1.Checked)
{
connectAsClient();
}
else
{
connectAsServer();
}
}
private void connectAsServer()
{
Thread bluetoothServerThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(ServerConnectThread)); //creates new thread and runs "ServerConnectThread"
bluetoothServerThread.Start();
}
private void connectAsClient()
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
Guid mUUID = new Guid("fa87c0d0-afac-11de-8a39-0800200c9a66");
bool serverStarted = false;
public void ServerConnectThread()
{
serverStarted = true;
updateUI("Server started, waiting for client");
BluetoothListener blueListener = new BluetoothListener(mUUID);
blueListener.Start();
BluetoothClient conn = blueListener.AcceptBluetoothClient();
updateUI("Client has connected");
Stream mStream = conn.GetStream();
while (true)
{
try
{
//handle server connection
byte[] received = new byte[1024];
mStream.Read(received, 0, received.Length);
updateUI("Received: " + Encoding.ASCII.GetString(received));
byte[] sent = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("hello world");
mStream.Write(sent, 0, sent.Length);
}
catch (IOException exception)
{
updateUI("Client disconnected");
}
}
}
private void updateUI(string message)
{
Func<int> del = delegate ()
{
textBox1.AppendText(message + Environment.NewLine);
return 0;
};
Invoke(del);
}
}
Android App (snippet from the Bluetooth Chat example - i think this is the only relevant part):
/**
* Sends a message.
*
* #param message A string of text to send.
*/
private void sendMessage(String message) {
// Check that we're actually connected before trying anything
if (mChatService.getState() != BluetoothChatService.STATE_CONNECTED) {
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), R.string.not_connected, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return;
}
// Check that there's actually something to send
if (message.length() > 0) {
// Get the message bytes and tell the BluetoothChatService to write
byte[] send = message.getBytes();
mChatService.write(send);
// Reset out string buffer to zero and clear the edit text field
mOutStringBuffer.setLength(0);
mOutEditText.setText(mOutStringBuffer);
}
}
You will want to have to add the clients to alist of streams for reference and also store the scores of each client on a list and then send the data coming from each client to the rest of the clients
so from the server youd have basically something like this
List<Stream> clients=new List<Stream>();
List<String> client_scores=new List<String>();
public void ServerConnectThread()
{
serverStarted = true;
updateUI("Server started, waiting for client");
BluetoothListener blueListener = new BluetoothListener(mUUID);
blueListener.Start();
BluetoothClient conn = blueListener.AcceptBluetoothClient();
updateUI("Client has connected");
Stream mStream = conn.GetStream();
clients.add(mStream);
client_scores.add(new Random().Next()+"");
int index_cnt = clients.IndexOf(mStream);
while (true)
{
try
{
//handle server connection
byte[] received = new byte[1024];
mStream.Read(received, 0, received.Length);
updateUI("Received: " + Encoding.ASCII.GetString(received));
client_scores[client_scores.FindIndex(ind=>ind.Equals(index_cnt))] = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(received);
byte[] sent = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("hello world");
mStream.Write(sent, 0, sent.Length);
foreach(Stream str in clients)
{
byte[] my_score = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(clients.ToArray()[index_cnt]+"");
str.Write(my_score, 0, my_score.Length);
}
}
catch (IOException exception)
{
updateUI("Client disconnected");
}
}
}
You can then serialize the data being sent in some sort of json so as to send multiple fields of data comfortably for example :
{
"data type": "score",
"source_id": "client_unique_id",
"data": "200"
}
On your displaying side,just get the values of (in our example case source_id and data) and display on a label
I have implemented webservice client in axis2-1.6.2 in java and I get response when I call first time and for subsequent second time I get below error
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.axis2.client.OperationClient.prepareMessageContext(OperationClient.java:293)
at org.apache.axis2.description.OutInAxisOperationClient.executeImpl(OutInAxisOperation.java:180)

at Prepost.SubscriberRetrieveBalance.subscriberRetrieveLite(SubscriberRetrieveBalance.java:111)
at Prepost.CheckUser.doGet(CheckUser.java:149)
here is the API implementation class constructor which sets unique parameter which is same for all requests
public SubscriberRetrieveBalance(String url, String strCON_TimeOut, String strSO_TimeOut) {
try {
this.url = url;
stub = new CustomerCareServiceStub(url);
ServiceClient sClient = stub._getServiceClient();
Options options = sClient.getOptions();
options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.REUSE_HTTP_CLIENT, Constants.VALUE_TRUE);
options.setProperty(AddressingConstants.WS_ADDRESSING_VERSION, AddressingConstants.Submission.WSA_NAMESPACE);
//options.setTimeOutInMilliSeconds(2000);
TransportInDescription transportIn = new TransportInDescription("HTTP");
options.setTransportIn(transportIn);
options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.SO_TIMEOUT, Integer.parseInt(strSO_TimeOut));
options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.CONNECTION_TIMEOUT, Integer.parseInt(strCON_TimeOut));
sClient.setOptions(options);
} catch (Exception e) {
if (e.getMessage().equals("Can not find the external id")) {
System.out.println("Exception ::" + e.getMessage());
}
}
}
and it is called in a servlet and for performance issue I make object of this class for different-2 states(urls) and saved these object to hashmap when first request comes for respective states then make new object and use that object for subsequent requests for that state
SubscriberRetrieveBalance objBal = null;
BalanceBean bal = new BalanceBean();
if (mapObj.isEmpty() || (mapObj.get(strIP) == null)) {
objBal = new SubscriberRetrieveBalance(url, strCON_TimeOut, strSO_TimeOut);
mapObj.put(strIP, objBal);
} else {
objBal = mapObj.get(strIP);
}
bal = objBal.subscriberRetrieveLite(strMsisdn, userId, token, strCircleId, strCircleName, strSessionId, strDlgId);
first time it gives response and then gives nullpointer exception and above error for all requests that belongs to that state
This code is working fine with axis2-1.5
Is there any change in axis2-1.6.2 version that every time it needs new object of API implemented class
Please suggest.
I am new to android. I am developing the new app with email sending option. To send a mail I have used gmail configurations host "smtp.gmail.com", port 465 with SSL true. To send an email I have apache commons API. OnTouch event mail sending method will call. Whenever touch button it shows following errors,
Error : Could not find class 'javax.naming.InitialContext', referenced from method org.apache.commons.mail.Email.setMailSessionFromJNDI
Warning: VFY: unable to resolve new-instance 955 (Ljavax/naming/InitialContext;) in Lorg/apache/commons/mail/Email;
Warning : org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException: Sending the email to the following server failed : smtp.gmail.com:465
I have added uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" in my manifest file.
Can i use all java files in android ?
My email code executed correctly as a stand alone java program.
Here is an example of what I am doing in an app. I have an app that has its own email account that sends an email to the user when they fill out a form and press the submit button.
Important make sure you have the libSMTP.jar file referenced in your app. I am using this library for the following code. Here is the following code being used, take from it what you'd like, hope this is useful:
Imports needed:
import org.apache.commons.net.smtp.SMTPClient;
import org.apache.commons.net.smtp.SMTPReply;
import org.apache.commons.net.smtp.SimpleSMTPHeader;
Submit button to make the request to send email
submit.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
{
public void onClick(View v)
{
//-- Submit saves data to sqlite db, but removed that portion for this demo...
//-- Executes an new task to send an automated email to user when they fill out a form...
new sendEmailTask().execute();
}
}
});
Email task to be preformed on seperate thread:
private class sendEmailTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void>
{
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Void result)
{
}
#Override
protected void onPreExecute()
{
}
#SuppressLint("ParserError")
#Override
protected Void doInBackground(Void... params)
{
try {
//--Note the send format is as follows: send(from, to, subject line, body message)
send("myAppName#gmail.com", "emailToSendTo#gmail.com", "Form Submitted", "You submitted the form.");
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
}
Send function being used:
public void send(String from, String to, String subject, String text) throws IOException
{
SMTPClient client = new SMTPClient("UTF-8");
client.setDefaultTimeout(60 * 1000);
client.setRequireStartTLS(true); // requires STARTTLS
//client.setUseStartTLS(true); // tries STARTTLS, but falls back if not supported
client.setUseAuth(true); // use SMTP AUTH
//client.setAuthMechanisms(authMechanisms); // sets AUTH mechanisms e.g. LOGIN
client.connect("smtp.gmail.com", 587);
checkReply(client);
//--Note the following format is as follows: client.login("localhost", (...your email account being used to send email from...), (...your email accounts password ...));
client.login("localhost", "myAppName#gmail.com", "...myAppName email account password...");
checkReply(client);
client.setSender(from);
checkReply(client);
client.addRecipient(to);
checkReply(client);
Writer writer = client.sendMessageData();
if (writer != null)
{
SimpleSMTPHeader header = new SimpleSMTPHeader(from, to, subject);
writer.write(header.toString());
writer.write(text);
writer.close();
client.completePendingCommand();
checkReply(client);
}
client.logout();
client.disconnect();
}
Check reply function being used:
private void checkReply(SMTPClient sc) throws IOException
{
if (SMTPReply.isNegativeTransient(sc.getReplyCode()))
{
sc.disconnect();
throw new IOException("Transient SMTP error " + sc.getReplyCode());
}
else if (SMTPReply.isNegativePermanent(sc.getReplyCode()))
{
sc.disconnect();
throw new IOException("Permanent SMTP error " + sc.getReplyCode());
}
}
From Apache Commons Net 3.3, you can just drop the jar in your classpath and start using the AuthenticationSMTPClient : http://blog.dahanne.net/2013/06/17/sending-a-mail-in-java-and-android-with-apache-commons-net/
