Input/Output extension development

[Viz Dev]

Hi all,

I am using Avare with Xplane on my Android phone without a problem. I would like to access this ADS-B data (lat, long, alt, etc) on my phone from an application on my Android watch. For example, to start simply, I would just like to display my altitude on the watch.

For this experiment, the watch is tethered to my phone via Bluetooth. Due to my limited knowledge of java, where in the Avare source code does it access the gps data from Xplane, should the Avare I/O plugin listener be running? This may help to give me a clue to how Avare retrieves it. Is it:

/**
	* From IO module
	*/
	public void onLocationChanged(Location location, String from) {
	if(mPref.getExternalGpsSource().equals("1")) {
	return;
	}
	if ((location != null)
	&& location.getProvider().equals(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER)) {
	updateTimeout();
	/*
	* Called by GPS. Update everything driven by GPS.
	*/
	if(!mPref.isSimulationMode()) {
	mGpsCallback.locationCallback(location);
	}
	}
	}
	/**

Hello Viz

You will need to look at the IHelper interface. This is where data from the IO module enters the app.
This is a binder interface. IHelper AIDL file lists the interface that other apps need to implement to send location to Avare.
