Open Source Development Extension Development

Hello Expert... I want to create extension with Niotron.IDE
This Extension is to check wheter the mock location is ON/OFF
I will use this extensions to IF... THEN blocks...

If mocklocation = true then...
If mocklocation = false then...

I use this Code :

package com.android.MockTest;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import com.google.appinventor.components.annotations.*;
import com.google.appinventor.components.common.ComponentCategory;
import com.google.appinventor.components.runtime.AndroidNonvisibleComponent;
import com.google.appinventor.components.runtime.ComponentContainer;
import com.google.appinventor.components.runtime.EventDispatcher;

@DesignerComponent(
version = 1,
description = "return Mock Setting on/off",
category = ComponentCategory.EXTENSION,
nonVisible = true,
iconName = "")

@SimpleObject(external = true)
//Libraries
@UsesLibraries(libraries = "")
//Permissions
@UsesPermissions(permissionNames = "")

public class MockTest extends AndroidNonvisibleComponent {

//Activity and Context
private Context context;
private Activity activity;

public MockTest(ComponentContainer container){
    super(container.$form());
    this.activity = container.$context();
    this.context = container.$context();
}
@DesignerProperty(editorType = PropertyTypeConstants.PROPERTY_TYPE_BOOLEAN, defaultValue = "False")

@SimpleProperty(userVisible = true)
public void boolean isMockSettingsON(Context context) {
    if (Settings.Secure.getString(context.getContentResolver(),Settings.Secure.ALLOW_MOCK_LOCATION).equals("0"))
    return false;
else
    return true;
}


@SimpleFunction(description = "Sample Function Generated by Niotron")
public void TestFunction(){

}

@SimpleEvent(description = "Test Event Generated by Niotron")
public void TestEvent(){
    EventDispatcher.dispatchEvent(this, "TestEvent");
}

}

I Get This Error message

This is one of the mistakes.

Also, your indenting is not correct:

It should be:

if (Settings.Secure.getString(context.getContentResolver(),Settings.Secure.ALLOW_MOCK_LOCATION).equals("0")) {
     return true;
} else {return false;}

And simplified:

return Settings.Secure.getString(context.getContentResolver(),Settings.Secure.ALLOW_MOCK_LOCATION).equals("0");

You do not have brackets {} for if else. Try this:

@SimpleProperty(userVisible = true)
public boolean isMockSettingsON(Context context) {
    if (Settings.Secure.getString(context.getContentResolver(),Settings.Secure.ALLOW_MOCK_LOCATION).equals("0")) {
    return false;
   } else {
    return true;
}
}

Also, It shall be renamed to - IsMockSettingsOn (Naming Convention)

Yes.

By the way, @Ronald, you might not want to use this code. It does not support Android versions > 5.1, which most of our phones do not support.

[quote="Aarush_Kumar, post:13, topic:48502"]

Here's my new code....
@SimpleProperty(userVisible = true)

public boolean isMockSettingsOn(Context context) {

if (Settings.Secure.getString(context.getContentResolver(),

    Settings.Secure.ALLOW_MOCK_LOCATION).equals("0")) {

return false;

} else {

return true;

}

}

And wont compiling with this message :

OK... Thanks for your correction....

Thanks for this information....

You mean this code ?
public CekMockLocation(ComponentContainer container){

    super(container.$form());

    this.activity = container.$context();

    this.context = container.$context();

}
