Android Question StateManager - error - can't save app

rleiman · Sep 4, 2014

Hi Everyone,

I started to use the StateManager. After downloading it and unzipping it, I copied StateManager.bas into my project where the other .bas files were located. I added it into the project as an existing module and it showed up as a tab so I could see the coding of the module. When I tried to save the project I got an error on the If statement. Is this module incomplete?

This is the If statement that gave the error:

B4X:

If Settings.IsInitialized = False Then

This is the Sub that has the If statement:

B4X:

Sub GetSetting2(Key As String, DefaultValue As String)
    If Settings.IsInitialized = False Then
        'load the stored settings
        If File.Exists(File.DirInternal, settingsFileName) Then
            Settings = File.ReadMap(File.DirInternal, settingsFileName)
        Else
            Return DefaultValue
        End If
    End If
    Dim v As String
    v = Settings.GetDefault(Key.ToLowerCase, DefaultValue)
    Return v
End Sub

I think you're confusing things or atleast I used it totally different than you did, here's an example...

B4X:

StateManager.loadStateFile 'load
setting1=StateManager.GetSetting2("setting1","0") 'get

StateManager.SetSetting("setting1",setting1+1) 'set
StateManager.SaveSettings 'save

Hi sorex,

Actually, all I did was to copy and install the StateManager.bas code module and not use it yet.

Usually when I add a code module to my project I do a ctrl-s to save the project. That's when the error popped up. It popped up in the code module. Once I can get the code module saved then I will try to use it. Looks like there may be something missing from the coding of the StateManager.bas code module.

did you add the randomaccessfile library?

my b4a file shows these libs in use

Library1=core
Library2=phone
Library3=randomaccessfile
Library4=reflection
Library5=stringutils

but core is default, phone not needed. not sure about the other 3

Yes. It's using version 1.65 of that library.

Hi Erel,

I tried to upload it but there is a 512kb limit. The project is 8.7 mb.

Can I send it to your email?

I tried the one you are using and still get the error.

I just got a message from gmail that it also was too big so I will place it on 4shared.com and will send you a link by email to get it.

Here is a file showing the error I get when trying to save the app.

rleiman · Sep 4, 2014

I created a copy of the Map called Settings to SettingsEmad and renamed all of the references to Settings. to SettingsEmad. and the app saved ok.

Now I will try to see if I can use the module. Maybe "Settings" is a reserved word and can't be used as a Map.

Did the StateManager get changed slightly? I'm using v1.01 and settings is in lowercase...?

ETA : Nope, that doesn't seem to be the problem - are you sure you haven't edited the bas file incorrectly in some way? I would suspect that something else, elsewhere is generating this error for you.

Can I get a copy of the version you are using to see if it works for me?

What happens if you comment out that If Statement and the End if, will it save then?

I got an error from here.

B4X:

Sub GetSetting(Key As String)
    Return GetSetting2(Key, "")
End Sub

I did get it to compile and run by adding a new map called SettingsEmad and changed all of the parts of the module that used to have Settings and even got a "False" when I ran this code from my "Main" module:

B4X:

    Msgbox(StateManager.RestoreState(Activity, "Main", 60),"")

So maybe that Setting keyword was a reserved word.

I don't think it is a reserved word..
