My application sends a packet every 30 minutes. When the packet can't be sent, I want to store it (a simple string) inside a file called error.log. When the user presses a button called "restoreErrors", I want to extract a packet from error.log and try to resend it, according to the LIFO policy.
For example the file error.log is:
String1
String2
String3
And when the user presses the "restoreErrors" button, I need to load the saved packets in order:
while (!file.empty) {
String str = loadUnsendedStringFromFile();
}
My problem is using the file like a LIFO, because I can read the String correctly, but I need to remove the currently extracted string (like POP in a stack model).
Thanks.
EDIT: Ok, I will use a simple list for achieve this, no need to store inside a file for every packet error... thanks
With an ArrayList, you can call the add method to add unsent messages to your list. Then you can send them in the order you want (going up or down, with a simple for loop). Then, call the remove method to erase the sent string, it will leave you with the unsent Strings

I'm getting the error when InviteButton.Click is pressed, when trying to send the actual message. Everything else loads up as it should, I am able to select a contact etc.
I've the following block of code:
I'm using contact picker to pick the number:
Then I'm trying to call the value stored in the tinyDB and send the message like this:
And this is the error i get:
Basically I'm trying to pick a number from the contact picker, add to the tinyDB and when I press a button it sends the text message....can't figure it out.
Any ideas??
You should add some data validation before sending the message, something like this
By the way, the if true statement does not make sense, you can remove it...
I have an android app that is essentially a list of timers. Each timer can have the following fields:
title (string, can be up to 255 characters)
id (integer)
seconds (integer)
time_started (integer)
seconds_left (integer)
running (boolean)
order (integer)
There can be an unlimited number of these timers, though for the pebble watch app, it'd be ok if I only send the first n (10, 15, 20).
Currently I've been sending the items to the watch one at a time, and creating the PebbleDictionary like this:
private PebbleDictionary buildTimerDictionary(Timer timer) {
PebbleDictionary data = new PebbleDictionary();
data.addUint32(C.KEY_ID, timer.getId());
data.addUint32(C.KEY_SECONDS, (int)timer.getSeconds());
data.addString(C.KEY_DESCRIPTION, timer.getDescriptionFormatted());
data.addUint32(C.KEY_TIME_STARTED, (int)timer.getTimeStarted());
data.addUint32(C.KEY_TIME_LEFT, (int)timer.getSecondsLeft());
data.addUint8(C.KEY_RUNNING, (byte)(timer.isRunning() ? 1 : 0));
data.addUint32(C.KEY_ORDER, (int)timer.getOrder());
data.addString(C.KEY_TIME_DISPLAY, timer.getSecondsFormatted());
return data;
}
And sending it via a queue that sends the next PebbleDictionary to the watch after the previous is acked.
This works, but it's pretty slow. I feel like I could save a lot of time by packing more than one timer into each message. However, I'm not sure how to do that, considering the inbox size on the pebble watch itself, and the fact that you have to hard define the keys for the dictionary in appinfo.json (it doesn't seem like you can use arbitrary keys).
How is this sort of thing usually done?
There are two ways to do this:
One message for each item (what you are doing now)
Multiple items per message.
In this case you can pack everything into one value by using byte arrays and concatenating all your fields into the byte array.
You can then use the key to send the index of the element in the list.
A few comments:
Defining the keys in appinfo.json is optional and only useful if you are using PebbleKit JavaScript. It has absolutely no use for apps that talk with PebbleKit Android.
You can query the available buffer size on Pebble with app_message_inbox_size_maximum(). Get it when you start your app and send it from Pebble to the Android app.
The best strategy depends on the average size of your messages. Right now your items will be about 25bytes + the strings + the small overhead of a dictionary (7 bytes + 1 byte per key). If the strings are very small you might fit three items per messages, if the description is very long, you might not be able to send the item at all (you should probably truncate it).
I am trying to make a performance testing process by using the Jmeter for the mobile chat application. The scenario i am trying is,need to analyze the output during the N number of new user registration process.I am feeding the N user data through "CSV Data Set Config".In that mentioned the variable names as "phone,ime".
For each new user registration process,the application will generate the one time password when calling the API1.The question is,I need to get that generated one time password from the API1 response message for each phone user and need to assign the value to the variable ${code} when calling the API2.
The below are the API & parameters details:
API1:/api/users/registration-sms.html?
1) Name:phone, Value: ${phone}
2) Name:ime, Value: ${ime}
Example :
Request - POST data: phone=917010370002 & ime=e78b56418b55b32c
Response:{"response":{"httpCode":200,"Message":"True","Code":"5858"}}
API2: /api/users/registration-sms-verfy.html?
1) Name:phone, Value:${phone}
2) Name:code, Value:${code}
Note : For this variable ${code},We need to get the data from the API1("Code":"5858") response message for the respective phone(917010370002).
Please provide me the feasible solution to sort out of my requirement.
Thanks in advance.
You can use Regular extractor post processor like,
Assuming your response is like
{"response":{"httpCode":200,"Message":"True","Code":"5858"}}
your regular expression will be like to extract code value but for specifiic phone no you need to modify it a little bit,
"Code"\:"(\d+)"
for occurance detail you can provide which match no. you want.

I'm making a app that can reserve message from php server and append new message in listView,
then mark a point on that item to show unread,of course it will disappear when click the item,
these is my question:
how can i save the read/unread mark on each item in order to when i login the app next time i
still can see the mark.
I have tried using share preference but it seems not a good solution.there is so may key to save and it's inconvenient when modify the value.
is it need SQLite ? or have easier solution? need some to help.
I'm a little confused about how to send data over a Bluetooth connection. In the Android API documentation, from the Bluetooth Chat example, the class BluetoothChat.java constructs a Handler object. Within there is a switch statement, and a MESSAGE_WRITE case. Do I need to implement similar code to send Strings over Bluetooth? A case statement for each String I want to send? In particular I want to send (name,value) pairs so I know what is sent and what it's value is. How do I implement this? If, following the example, I call BluetoothChatService.write(String.getBytes()) a bunch of times to send...? Then how would I know which strings are associated with which names? Please help.
I'm using Google's Protocol Buffers to send structured data over bluetooth connections in my Android app. protobuf takes care of figuring out how to serialize the message for you so that you only have to send a byte value (length of the message) and then the serialized message; the library takes care of unserializing the message on the other end and populating the fields of a custom object. Definitely take a look at it; it made the writing of a custom bluetooth socket protocol quite easy.
Serialize pairs to any of formats which allows byte representation. Such as XML or JSON. Or even your custom format, it wouldn't be difficult for pairs of strings. And then send it.
For simple pairs of strings (Such as names), you could simply use some character to define when the first string stops, and the next begins.
For example, I use a format such as this to send a set of 3 strings from one device to another:
String toSend = partOne + ":" + partTwo + ":" + partThree;
On the other device, to get the strings you sent, use the String.split() method like so:
String parts[] = received.split(":",3);
The 2nd parameter is a limit to how many times to split. In this example, there are 3 strings, so split 3 times max.
The downside to doing this is that you need to use characters that will never be in all but the last string.
In my application, I used this method to send data about text messages, and the first 2 parts are the phone number and timestamp, so there can never be a : in it. For names, a newline would probably work.
If your going to send more complex data, definitely use something like Protocol Buffers.
