ScriptBasic for Android

<< < (2/15) > >>

Support:
Here is an example of a request / response call to the SL4A RPC server. This is opening a SB socket and sending a JSON packet to the RPC scripting server. (see attached screenshot)

The Androids API (scripting version) is fairly extensive. I would be willing to help build this interface if others contribute. I'll post a few high level functions to get the ball rolling and see what happens. My initial goal was to create a proof of concept and see if others saw promise or not. If there is no interest by others then I'll return to my IUP project and revisit this again at later time.

Support:
I'm playing around with a JSON response parser that creates a SB associative array. This is my first stab at it and may find a better way.


--- Code: ---r = """{"error":null,"id":1,"result":"gsm"}"""
r = MID(r,2)
r = LEFT(r,LEN(r) - 1)
r = REPLACE(r, "\"", "")
SPLITA r BY "," TO t
FOR x = 0 to UBOUND(t)
  a{LEFT(t[x],INSTR(t[x],":")-1)} = MID(t[x],INSTR(t[x],":")+1)
NEXT

PRINT a{"error"},"\n"
PRINT a{"id"},"\n"
PRINT a{"result"},"\n"

--- End code ---

I started building an Android SL4A module to kick things off. Don't wait too long or your favorite Facade may be taken.  ;)

I have lots of catching up to do John, you are moving right along. That is great.
