C# to Java wrong translation for constructor #3490
Description
I am trying to create Samsung Tizen Companion app in Xamarin.Android. Samsung has an SDK called Samsung Accessory SDK. This is only available in jar. So I created a Java Binding Library.
Samsung also has a sample code in java how to handle communication between Tizen and Android (in this case xamarin.android).
So I tried to convert below attached java class(ProviderService.txt) into C# see the url
ProviderService.txt
Problem here is
below code constructor in C#
[Service(Exported = true, Name = "WearCompanion.Droid.ProviderService")]
public class ProviderService : SAAgent
{
public ProviderService() : base("ProviderService", SASOCKET_CLASS)
{
}
when I look at the obj folder of my xamarin.android project and find ProviderClass.java file generated
public class ProviderService
extends com.samsung.android.sdk.accessory.SAAgent
implements
mono.android.IGCUserPeer
{
public ProviderService (java.lang.String p0, java.lang.Class p1)
{
super (p0, p1);
if (getClass () == ProviderService.class)
mono.android.TypeManager.Activate ("WearCompanion.Droid.ProviderService, WearCompanion.Android", "System.String, mscorlib:Java.Lang.Class, Mono.Android", this, new java.lang.Object[] { p0, p1 });
}
but it is supposed to be interpreted as below java code
public class ProviderService extends SAAgent {
private static final String TAG = "HelloAccessory(P)";
private static final Class<ServiceConnection> SASOCKET_CLASS = ServiceConnection.class;
public ProviderService() {
super(TAG, SASOCKET_CLASS);
}
in C# obviously no difference between 2 code pieces but in Java i think that there is difference because. Sdk request is failing with error telling me that
java.lang.InstantiationException: java.lang.Class has no zero argument constructor
