I have a very simple app to test tsNet.. (code extracted from Charles demo stack)

I can push app straight to my Android device using the test button, and save as standalone - in v 8.0 / v8.0.2 / 8.1 / 8.1.1 rc2...I know tsNet wont work in these builds but is still builds and deploys. I cannot however build app in any build after this, upto 9.0 dp2.. I get "Could not encode class bundle"

Thinking this was my app, i donwloaded Charles demo stack - tried to push that to my Android device and got the same error !?

Does anybody have an idea as to what is causing the encode error?

Cheers
Paul

Hi Paul,

Just a rough guess, have you by any chance changed the "Identifier" in the Android Standalone Settings, and include something that has spaces or other non-allowed chars?

Hi Panos,

No - the identifier is simply com.paulrichards.testing. version: 1.0.0 version code: 1 Signing: Sign for development only.

To test further, I created a new Stack, added 1 button and configured deployment to Android only.. Used the test button, and it deployed to device.

Added this code to the button: (which is the code behind HTTP Get Example button on Charles demo stack)

on mouseUp
local tRequestHeaders, tResponseHeaders, tResult, tBytes, tData
local tSettings, tCharNo, tUrl, tProxyUrl

put field "http_url" into tUrl
put empty into field "response"

-- Set proxy for HTTP(S) connections, if required
put field "proxy" into tProxyUrl
if tProxyUrl is not empty then
put offset("://", tProxyUrl) into tCharNo
put offset(":", tProxyUrl, tCharNo + 3) into tCharNo
if tCharNo is 0 then
put ":80" after tProxyUrl
end if
tsNetSetProxy tProxyUrl
else
tsNetSetProxy ""
end if

-- Build headers for HTTP request
put "User-Agent: LiveCode (" & the platform & ")" & cr into tRequestHeaders

-- Disable connection re-use if required
if the hilite of button "Reuse Connection" is false then
put true into tSettings["no_reuse"]
end if

-- Flag that we want to be able to store the sent headers for
put true into tSettings["save_sent_headers"]

put tsNetGetSync(tUrl, tRequestHeaders, tResponseHeaders, tResult, tBytes, tSettings) into tData

if the first word of tResult is not "tsneterr:" then
-- For HTTP(s) requests, check response code to confirm success or failure
if char 1 of tResult is not "2" then
answer "HTTP response code" && tResult && "returned from server"
end if
else
answer "Error" && tResult && "returned from server"
end if

-- At this point:
-- tResponseHeaders contains the headers returned from the server
-- tRequestHeaders contains the headers that were sent to the server
put tData into field "response"
end mouseUp

Save - TEST - unable to build app for testing: could not encode class bundle ?!?

Remove code from button - It deploys again. (most odd)

Add code to button

on mouseUp
get URL "https://www.google.co.uk"
end mouseUp

Save - TEST - could not encode class bundle!?! It appears anything internet related is causing this error on mouseup - answer "hello" end mouseUp works perfectly fine.

I am using Indy edition.

and the test listed above was done in 9.0 dp2 - although I have been getting this same mesasge on various versions of 8.1.x. I am also using Windows 10

Hi Paul,

This is strange. I have just tested on LC 9 DP-2, using your sample button script, and I can successfully build an Android standalone and deploy it to my Android phone. I have tested on both Windows 10 and OS X 10.11.

I have also tested with both "Search for Inclusions" and "Select Inclusions" (and added tsNet).

I suggest you file a bug report (http://quality.livecode.com) and make sure you attach a sample stack.

Best regards,
Panos

Hi Panos..

I put "answer the result " before Throw "could not encode class bundle" in revSaveAsAndroidStandalone script

and I got this error:

After the wonderul guidance from Panos..

I checked what Android Build-tools were installed (SDK Manager) and found I was running 17 so installed 19.03 and hey presto - App now saves and deploys.

Thanks Panos.

Thank you for the update, Paul.

I am glad the issue is resolved
