Please could someone build a new beebdroid with hoglet's fix viewtopic.php?f=4&t=9036&p=111679&hilit ... id#p111679.

I know this is a bit pathetic, but I just can't build for Android! I have used many IDEs on many platforms for many targets, but my brain just doesn't seem to work with IDEs targetting Android.

It took a while to download android studio on my slow connection, but after four hours plus more downloads, I still can't build beebdroid; either the original, updated or the one with local .ssd storage and wireframe keys viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4564&p=52831&hilit= ... ame#p52831.

Ideally, I would like the one with local .ssd storage as even though the new little fluffy animals one has a longer list of supported games, not being able to load other (OK, my) disks is pretty much a deal breaker.

hmm I did find one after lots of serching where i could load my own disc images from the phone itself and was not stuck to dling them from stl but that was a while ago and for the life of me don't remember. but see i have a apk on my phone that i think is the one i down loaded, wont let me upload it (Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached.) so if your intrested let me know.
Regards,
Peter.

O should maybe mention the name and think that’s where I downloaded it from as well

com.littlefluffytoys.beebdroid-1.apk

Thanks, but I have that one; from the source, it has the same bug (sbc sets the carry incorrectly IIRC) as the wireframe one (which is the one I most want) and probably the same as the one that requires an external keyboard (http://fiskur.eu/?page_id=401 except for typing) and has the whole of the sth archive (games menu maybe) pre-installed.

I nearly have the wireframe one with fixed ARM asm building, but somewhere between Android Studio and the NDK, it doesn't know how to build the .S files. I have tried several times over the years to get an android app working, but only got one to run once, then, the Eclipse plugin would never talk to the emulator or my phone again!

If possible, I would like to know where I am going wrong as I also want to add an analogue input.

Just bumping this again, as I have now spent another week trying to build any of these to fix the sbc bug.

Since I've got an interest in Android programming, I thought I'd give this a go.

Honestly, this isn't a pretty build! I've *just* about managed to build an apk, but haven't tested it.

Anyway, here are my notes. I'll try to explain any steps that aren't obvious...

1. Install android studio
2. Open Project (as the *directory* containing the .iml)
* 2.1. Spot that it's missing "android-23"!
* 2.1.1 Install "android-23"!
* 2.2 Spot that it's missing build tools 23
* 2.2.1 Install build tools 23
* 2.3 Allow android studio to update gradle...
3. Select build variant: app, ouyaRelease
* 3.1. Realise that the NDK is required
* 3.1.1. Install LLDB,CMake,NDK (via SDK manager)
?* 3.3. Notice Android 6.0 is only partially installed
?* 3.4. Install Android 6.0
* 3.5. Realise that ndk-build can't be found
* 3.5.1 Modify build.gradle, line 21, since I'm on Windows
* 3.6. Build error:
* 3.6.1 jni/main.c:311:9 return void thingy
* 3.6.2 I modified to "return 0;"
* 3.7. Link error:
* 3.7.1 ld: warning: shared library text segment is not shareable
* 3.7.2 Add "LOCAL_DISABLE_FATAL_LINKER_WARNINGS := true" to Android.mk
* 3.7.3 But put it after the "clean vars" thingy
* 3.8. Assembler errors
* 3.8.1 x86 assembler stuff looks dodgey
* 3.8.2 Remove x86 from APP_ABI in application.mk
* 3.9 Resource compilation issues
* 3.9.1 Feeling tired now
* 3.9.2 Use special namespace "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" in "activity_beebdroid.xml"

There's two steps (with a very loose definition of steps!) that probably aren't necessary (3.3 and 3.4), but it's difficult to be absolutely sure.

The key build problems (on my Windows machine at least) are:

1) Not being able to find "ndk-build.cmd", required modification of "build.gradle"
2) "jni/main.c" build error on line 311
3) Linker error corrected by disabling fatal warnings
4) Complete failure of x86 6502 assembly, requiring disabling of x86 android build
5) Special auto resource namespace required, rather than explicit specification

Hopefully this'll help...

Apart from cmake, android 6 and removing x86, I had muddled my way through the rest. Is it cmake that allows the arm assembly to be assembled, that was the bit I never got working.

Thanks, I'll try again tonight.

emulator: Serial number of this emulator (for ADB): emulator-5554

Still that is probably OK, I'll try it on a phone later...10 minutes later emulator is still booting, so later is now!

Just tried build again and all the apache errors are back, so I don't think it was ever working - giving up again!

If anyone has a working project file (whatever this is in this case) I would love to give it a go.
I may try removing all http code, as I don't need it anyway.

I've forked the original repository into one which does seem to build on my machine:

https://github.com/MoleskiCoder/Beebdroid

The only to *really* watch out for is the modification to "app/build.gradle" which is peculiar to my machine.

Fingers crossed, this'll get you a little further. Or at least, we'll have a common set to move forward from...

Good luck,

Adrian

Fresh copy of your project, change the ndk-build.cmd path, "Unfortunately, Beebdroid has stopped".

Looks like this might be a problem:

I'll have another look tonight.

I'm not going to say it's working well, but it does seem to run under the AndroidStudio emulator.

I chose a Nexus 10, Android 5.1 (22), arm ABI and it's definitely started up.

Your error sounds like it might be fixed by better matching the build to the runtime environment, but given this is the first time I've tried this, I could be way off the mark.

Lunchtime over now, and it might be a couple of days before I get a chance to look at this again.

I think there is hope of getting this going for you...

Adrian

p.s.
ARM emulation runs like a dog on my system. When I next look at this, I might install Android Studio into an ubuntu VM and see if that allows me to build the 6502 x86 assembler source. With that in place, I'd be able to run x86 native device emulation...

Got closer, I removed the use of srand() and then it seems to hit a permissions issue.

If I just run the app, it does display the keyboard and screen, which seem to be the "real" one, not the "faster wireframe" one with local storage for disk images, but swapping over should be easy(ish) now you have done the necessary incantations with the project.

Belated Birthday Greets Tricky

Are we nearly there yet? :p

Thanks.
I think I have the wireframe building, using bits from the new report, but, it fails immediately saying in the debugger that it doesn't have WAKE_ something permission. I'll have another play tomorrow

Neither user 10094 nor current process has android.permission.WAKE_LOCK
Seems unnecessary, I'll try removing it

...
removed and now it runs, except no display except the keyboard and menu - beeb screen is black.
Sound is working and disc seems to load correctly.
Time got some GL debugging!
...
Selecting activity_beebdroid.xml gives: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.littlefluffytoys.beebdroid.Beebdroid
That might be a clue

...
OK, display does work, but doesn't update without minimising and putting back, may be something to do with WAKE!
...
Giving up again for now, I'll try cutting down the new version instead.

OK, I can't get any further!

The wireframe version works, but only updates the screen when you minimise and restore.

EDIT: In the emulator, the same build works fine on the nexus 5!

The other version crashes during loading with:
A/libc: Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0x00000020 (code=1), thread 22662 (ytoys.beebdroid)

It appears to be in ActivityThread.java
private void handleCreateBackupAgent(CreateBackupAgentData data) {
inside:
LoadedApk packageInfo = getPackageInfoNoCheck(data.appInfo, data.compatInfo);
but it does say that the bytecode does not match the source!

Just a thought ... would HTML5 converted to an app for jsbeeb be too slow using Eclipse, Android Studio or PhoneGap?

Have you tried any of these?

tricky · Post by **tricky** » Wed Dec 14, 2016 12:30 pm

I haven't tried any those, except eclipse, but only for Java. If they support native assembler and jsbeeb was rewritten in assembler, maybe.
In chrome on my phone for example beebdroid runs at 50fps+, while jsbeeb runs at 3fps.
For a faster phone, you could just run jsbeeb, but I suspect battery drain and thermal cutout may be an issue. It may just be that chrome is failing to use hardware acceleration, but it does work for other apps.

Hi all..
Did anyone manage to get a working build of this ? I use the fluffytoys version on my GPD but it just seems to be lacking a bit..
Thanks

I did find someone who had ported b-em to android with a great little ui and performance, but I failed to persuade them to share it further.

Yes its a pity it's not been developed or improved anymore it's a lovely app, I had a version where you could load your own disc images it did not have to be the ones from STH, but have no idea where i got it from
