Hi there

I'd like to pass a list and a map to a JavaOject and then iterate these inside my Inline Java.

This is what I have tried so far where my paras is defined and initialized as a list.

B4X:
NativeMe.RunMethod("CreateDocument", Array As Object(path,paras))

Then I added this...

B4X:
#If Java
    import anywheresoftware.b4a.objects.collections.Map;
    import anywheresoftware.b4a.objects.collections.List;

With my sub to be called inside by b4j app

B4X:
public void CreateDocument(String docFile,List pList)

Thing is, running..

B4X:
NativeMe.RunMethod("CreateDocument", Array As Object(path,paras))

is giving me an error

B4X:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Method: CreateDocument not matched.

The List in B4j is an ArrayList object (java.util.ArrayList) unless you initialize it with an Array

To find the type :
B4X:
Dim L As List
L.Initialize
Log(GetType(L))

The java sub will probably need to be declared static.

To iterate over the ArrayList in java :

B4X:
#If Java
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;

public static void CreateDocument(String docFile, ArrayList pList){
    Iterator iterator = pList.iterator();
    while (iterator.hasNext()){
        BA.Log((String)iterator.next());
    }
}

#End If
