[android-developers] Re: Getting android multimodal - org.apache.commons.scxml

2008-09-29 Thread Jakob Sachse

I have been working on getting commons.scxml running on android. Today
I
got the stopwatch up and running. Since Android does not provide a
full
j2se I had to deploy / modify lots of libraries.

i.e. i used apache harmony for getting a java.beans implementation.

I had to modify java.beans and org.commons.harmony.beans classes to
get
rid of dependencies to java.awt and java.swing.

I created a jar named scxmlAndroidDependencies.jar that holds all
modified packages.

I did some screenshots of the stopwatch, you can find them here:

http://ostblock.kicks-ass.net/scxmlOnAndroid/android_3.jpg
http://ostblock.kicks-ass.net/scxmlOnAndroid/android_4.jpg

Also you can get the eclipse project I worked on. I uploaded it since
my
webserver just has a dsl uplink.

http://www.FreeUploadShare.com/DOWNLOAD/3e5dc1319/scxmlOnAndroid_eclipse_project.zip

Plase use the ant script to build the project, the ADT plugin will not
tranfere java.* package classes to .dex due to a missing --core-
library
option. The project is based on Google Android SDK 1.0_r1.

The project justs includes the library binaries, if someone is
interested in the sources let me know. I'll upload them as well.

 removing xml-apis from the build path results in errors in a few scxml
 classes.
 One of which is SCXMLSerializer, I think i could spare this since the
 Serializer is only called
 from some test classes.

 More tricky is that it also breaks Builtin.java which is a
 central class within scxml. The only class needed from xml-apis is the
 javax.xml.transform.TransformerException
 The TransformerException is thrown by org.apache.xpath.XPathAPI which
 itself is part of xalan, which i still have in the build path.

 But wouldn't that mean that the hole of xalan is incompatible to
 android? Or the other way around, if xalan works on android it would
 mean
 that its inside use of java.xml.* succeeds. And that hence i could
 find a way making it work for me as well.

 Is there anyone who used xalan on android?

  Do you have all the source code to all the commons-scxml dependencies?

  If not -- meaning you have commons-scxml source but are still using
  third-party JARs -- start trying to introduce those, either fully into

  For example, according to the dependency chart:

 http://commons.apache.org/scxml/dependencies.html

  commons-scxml depends upon Xalan, which depends upon xml-apis.

The good news is that the package you are trying to use (commons.scxml) 
is open source.

First, just try downloading the commons.scxml source code and building 
it on your machine with your own Java compiler, then use the JAR file 
you just compiled in your Android app instead of any binary distribution 
from the commons.scxml project. I ran into problems with Beanshell 
(http://beanshell.org) which this technique solved. This assumes, 
though, that you're using a 1.5 or greater Java compiler -- I have the 
sneaking suspicion this error comes from older compiled JARs (e.g., 1.4.x).

If that does not clear up your problem, you can try merging the 
commons.scxml source into your own project's source tree, and try 
building it as a whole, though I am not certain that will improve 
matters any.
