usb tethering

[pappicio]

hi all, is possible to translate this java code into readeable b4a code?

public int setUsbTethering(boolean enable) 
   {   
      final android.net.IConnectivityManager mService;
          try {
              return mService.setUsbTethering(enable);
          } 
          catch (RemoteException e) 
          {      
              return 2;
          }
   }
}

thanks a lot.

This code will not work. mService is null. Where did you see it?

mUsbTether = (CheckBoxPreference) findPreference(USB_TETHER_SETTINGS);

    private void setUsbTethering(boolean enabled) {
        ConnectivityManager cm =
            (ConnectivityManager)getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
        mUsbTether.setChecked(false);
        if (cm.setUsbTethering(enabled) != ConnectivityManager.TETHER_ERROR_NO_ERROR) {
            mUsbTether.setSummary(R.string.usb_tethering_errored_subtext);
            return;
        }
        mUsbTether.setSummary("");
    }

Try this (GetContext is available in the JavaObject tutorial thread):

Dim cm As JavaObject = GetContext.RunMethod("getSystemService", Array("connectivity"))
Log(cm.RunMethod("setUsbTethering", Array(True))

You also need to add the android.permission.CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE with the manifest editor.
