Help with Android Permissions

[NalleParticipant]

Hello everyone at Monkey2 community!

I’m having problem asking at run-time Android permissions.

I’m testing this with the following code:

Monkey

Namespace myapp #Import "<std>" #Import "<mojo>" Using std.. Using mojo.. Class MyWindow Extends Window Method New( title:String="Simple mojo app",width:Int=640,height:Int=480,flags:WindowFlags=Null ) Super.New( title,width,height,flags ) Print "Hello World from permissions demo!" Local permissions:=New String[]( "android.permission.INTERNET", "android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE", "android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE", "android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE", "com.android.vending.BILLING" ) For Local i:=0 Until permissions.Length Print "CheckPermission(~q"+permissions[i]+"~q)="+CheckPermission( permissions[i] ) Next RequestPermissions( permissions,Lambda(results:ResultType[] ) Print "Hello Wolrd from Request Permissions..." If Not results Print "RequestPermissions cancelled" Else For Local i:=0 Until results.Length If results[i] Print "Permission granted for "+permissions[i] Else Print "Permission NOT granted for "+permissions[i] Endif Next Endif End ) End Method OnRender( canvas:Canvas ) Override Global n:Int n+=1 App.RequestRender() Local permissions:=New String[]( "android.permission.INTERNET", "android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE", "android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE", "android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE", "com.android.vending.BILLING" ) For Local i:=0 Until permissions.Length canvas.DrawText("CheckPermission(~q"+permissions[i]+"~q)="+CheckPermission( permissions[i] ),10,i*20) Next canvas.DrawText( "Hello World! n="+n,Width/2,Height/2,.5,.5 ) End End Function Main() New AppInstance New MyWindow App.Run() End

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88

When running the program from ADB, I get following lines:

Some remarks:

• I don’t see “Hello Wolrd from Request Permissions…”
• DTS, ODTC are not allowed for Package : com.monkey2.monkey2game

The problem is: The Android device doesn’t ask permissions to READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE or WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE.

Please, someone experienced with these things, say something about the problem.

I made some changes to \modules\std\permissions.monkey2 and now asking permission at run-time works like a charm…

[DruggedBunnyParticipant]

I’d suggest opening an ‘issue’ on Github with the solution — it would help others and save you having to manually change it each time if accepted.

[NalleParticipant]

I opened an issue on Github on the permissions. I attached the permissions.monkey2 as such I altered it.

[Mark SiblyKeymaster]

Thank you, I will integrate this with the next binary release.
