Flash develop Android debug crashes, release does not

[flashyourface]

Hey All,

Im having an interesting problem when trying to debug an extremely basic app using Flixel for Android. 

If I select release build, everything works fine however I dont get traces. 

When I select debug for export it crashes on the device directly after opening.

 I was wondering if anyone had a fix for this, here is my code: 

Enter code here.package;

import flixel.FlxG;

import flixel.FlxSprite;

import flixel.FlxState;

import flixel.text.FlxText;

import flixel.ui.FlxButton;

import flixel.util.FlxMath;

/**

 * A FlxState which can be used for the game's menu.

 */

class MenuState extends FlxState

{

/**

* Function that is called up when to state is created to set it up. 

*/

override public function create():Void

{

add(new FlxText(10, 10, 100, "Hello, WORLD"));

trace('is this working');

super.create();

}

/**

* Function that is called when this state is destroyed - you might want to 

* consider setting all objects this state uses to null to help garbage collection.

*/

override public function destroy():Void

{

super.destroy();

}

/**

* Function that is called once every frame.

*/

override public function update():Void

{

super.update();

}

}..

Thanks

What do you see in the android logs (catlog)?

You can use the option -verbose to see a more complete log in the console.

lime test android -debug -verbose

It looks like an issue with flixel. I created a basic lime project in flash develop and debug worked on android. Now my new problem is no traces from debug in flash develop.

Hi. You can see the traces in logcat (I think you can see them in a program called "monitor" in the android tools), but you can also open a cmd window (from a flash developer icon) and type: "haxelib run lime trace yourproject.xml android" , and see the traces there (I have not tried it recently)

[flashyourface]

AH! Thank you Carlos your suggestion on 'monitor' is exactly what I used to fix my situation, even posted some info here:

I have not tried the  "haxelib run lime trace yourproject.xml android" you mentioned though I will sometime this weekend. 

Thanks for input!

Hi flashyourself,

What was the problem with the crash on debug mode? how do you fixed it?

I'm running in this problem too, but the logcat doesn't give me any insigh :(

[flashyourface]

Hey Junjo,

I didnt really fix it, I just created a project with openfl and that was working. 

I did a very basic bitmap loader and showed a jpg. It worked in release and debug and  I was able to get traces using the tools/monitor from the android sdk.

Hope that helps!

AH!! I think I just found the main problem!

I just used an openfl textfield and added that to my basic image loading app. As soon as I added the text field my device would crash in both release and debug. That is exactly what was happening when I made a flixel project and did the helloworld textfield however that only crashed debug, this is crashing both.

The fix is to include the font and add with text format. So something like this: 

var f:TextFormat = new TextFormat(Assets.getFont("Assets/arial_0.ttf").fontName,30);

var tf:TextField = new TextField();

tf.defaultTextFormat = f;

tf.text = 'YOOOO WORKING';

tf.width = 400;

addChild(tf);

Hope this helps someone.
