Android Question Invalid double: "null" after updating KeyValueStore

[LucaMs]

I was using an "old" version of KeyValueStore. Having found this problem:
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/posts/557508/

I replaced the old class with the latest one (and replaced all PutSimple and GetSimple with Put and Get).

Running the project, I get:
java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid double: "null"

executing the assignment LastVersion = Version(0) (as you can see LastVersion is a string variable so this does not make sense [also Version is an array of strings]).

KeyValueStore is not involved in any part of this phase (GetOnlineVersion is a resumable sub which downloads a simple string from Internet, splits it and returns Version(), correctly).

How could this have happened?


Thank you

You should post the full error message from the logs.

I don't think that this error happens on that line. Best if you can reproduce it in a small project and upload it.

Debug mode, using F8, the error happens executing that line:

LastVersion = Version(0)

not so easy

try log(version (0)), and see what the output is.

 

[LucaMs]

try log(version (0)), and see what the output is.

but I will try.

 

[LucaMs]

try log(version (0)), and see what the output is.

Even if it is clear that the error cannot be there, because LastVersion is a String, so it can accept texts and numbers, I did it and the log is normal, 1.0.

I tried adding a Sleep(500) before the if test, just to see if in this way the error happened elsewhere but it's the same.

I will try to reproduce this situation in a test project (not now ), but I think that in a new project this error will not happen; maybe attempting to do the same steps, ie initially adding the old class, run the project and then replacing the class.

[I'm stil "working" () with b4a 7.30 but this error happens with v. 7.80 too]

Remember Luca that in C and C++ null is string terminator. My favourite nightmare! I don't know if java uses a descriptor for strings or a pointer to a null terminate string...

OK but I'm not assigning a value to a variable of type double.
There is something corrupted, I think.

uhm... Trying using type object...

 

[LucaMs]

uhm... Trying using type object...

Same (tried first declaring only LastVersion as object and then both - Version() too).

 

[Star-Dust]

Try

LastVersion = Version(0).Replace(".",",")

Or

LastVersion = "Ver." & Version(0)

 

[Deleted member 103]

what happens in the sub "GetOnlineVersion"?
How is the variable version filled?

correctly).

are you sure?

 

[LucaMs]

are you sure?

Yes

 

[Erel]

Add some log messages:

Wait For (...) ...
Log(Version)
Log(GetType(Version))
Log(Version(0))
Log(GetType(LastVersion))
Log("A: " & (LastVersion = Version(0)))

What is the output?

Thank you

See if the error is not right in this ResumableSUb. It could go on with not having the necessary data yet.

Better if you put the sub GetOnlineVersion so we can see it

 

[LucaMs]

Add some log messages:

Wait For (...) ...
Log(Version)
Log(GetType(Version))
Log(Version(0))
Log(GetType(LastVersion))
Log("A: " & (LastVersion = Version(0)))

What is the output?

--------------------
[Ljava.lang.String;@21ec12d8
[Ljava.lang.String;
1.0
java.lang.String
java.lang.String
--------------------

This one crashes the app:
Log("A: " & (LastVersion = Version(0)))

LastVersion's value is its default value (Dim LastVersion As String = "") before that log, because the crash happens when I try to set it to Version(0)

If you like you can send me the project and I'll test it here.
