@DependsOn(values={"BrotherPrintLibrary"})
public class BrotherPrintSDK {

public String print(String filePath,String printerIP){

Printer myPrinter = new Printer();
PrinterInfo myPrinterInfo = new PrinterInfo();
PrinterStatus printResult = new PrinterStatus();
LabelInfo mLabelInfo=new LabelInfo();

myPrinterInfo = myPrinter.getPrinterInfo();
myPrinterInfo.printerModel=PrinterInfo.Model.QL_720NW;

myPrinterInfo.printMode=PrinterInfo.PrintMode.FIT_TO_PAGE;
myPrinterInfo.port=PrinterInfo.Port.NET;
myPrinterInfo.paperSize = PrinterInfo.PaperSize.CUSTOM;
myPrinterInfo.orientation = PrinterInfrientation.PORTRAIT;
myPrinterInfo.numberOfCopies = 1;
myPrinterInfo.ipAddress=printerIP;
//myPrinter.skipStatusCheck=true;
mLabelInfo.labelNameIndex=LabelInfo.QL700.valueOf("W29H90").ordinal();
//mLabelInfo.labelNameIndex=5;
mLabelInfo.isAutoCut = true;
mLabelInfo.isEndCut =true;

myPrinter.setPrinterInfo(myPrinterInfo);
myPrinter.setLabelInfo(mLabelInfo);
printResult=myPrinter.printFile(filePath);
return printResult.errorCode.toString();
}}

Have you added the internet permission in the manifest editor?

i add
Dim p AsPhoneIf p.SdkVersion >= 9ThenDim r AsReflector
r.Target = r.CreateObject("android.os.StrictMode$ThreadPolicy$Builder")
r.Target = r.RunMethod("permitAll")
r.Target = r.RunMethod("build")
r.RunStaticMethod("android.os.StrictMode", "setThreadPolicy", _ArrayAs Object(r.Target), ArrayAsString("android.os.StrictMode$ThreadPolicy"))EndIf

You started this thread TODAY

You can start with:
1. Use code tags when posting code!
2. Use quote-tags when posting quotes/logs!
3. Upload the source you want to wrap or at least post a link to it
4. Upload your java-project (ZIPped)
5. Seems that your code does not use a different thread for the communication.
Start with this tutorial: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/java-libraries-and-multithreading.12697/

buras3 · Oct 19, 2016

i ask about this before - https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/brothersdk2b4a-problem.45785/page-2#post-443830
1 how can i do that?
2 how can i do that?
3,4 i uploaded the library files
5 i didn't understand that tutorial. what do you mean by thread?

buras3 · Oct 19, 2016

if i will add to b4aignore field , it would help ?
now it's empty

See the hint for the code tag. The quote tag is in the same dropdown.

You should start understanding it as it is required to know to write libs which do the work in a different thread. Using the code from #5 is probably not the right solution.

Here an example: one of the methods of my Cloudrail-Library

B4X:

    public void getMetadata(final String filePath) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        new Thread(new Runnable() {
      @Override
      public void run() {
          CloudMetaData metadata = cloud.getMetadata(filePath);
                ba.raiseEventFromDifferentThread(this, null, 0, eventName + "_metadata", true, new Object[] {filePath,metadata});
      }
        }).start();
    }

Basically it is THIS code which i run in a different thread.

B4X:

 CloudMetaData metadata = cloud.getMetadata(filePath);

and then i raise an event in b4a from the thread instead of using a return value

B4X:

 ba.raiseEventFromDifferentThread(this, null, 0, eventName + "_metadata", true, new Object[] {filePath,metadata});

This code does not raise an networkonmainthread-exception as it does not run on the mainthread. It is a async call.

I tank you ,but i really don't understand Java .
I made an app that print with another app intend but you need to press back 5 times to print again .
This library is for 1 app only.

B4X:

B4X:

CloudMetaData metadata = cloud.getMetadata(filePath);

Can i add this code to my code and it will help or it's much more complicated ?
