Sensor Manager getOrientation, doesnt display text and only works in debug mode?
- by Aidan
Hi Guys,
My code appears to crash. I'm trying to setup a SensorManager for getting the Orientation of the device. I also have a listener that should update when conditions change. But when I run this code it crashes...
public void sensor(){
// Locate the SensorManager using Activity.getSystemService
sm = (SensorManager) getSystemService(SENSOR_SERVICE);
sm.getOrientation(mR, mOrientation);
// Register your SensorListener
sm.registerListener(sl, sm.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ORIENTATION),SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL);
}
private final SensorEventListener sl = new SensorEventListener() {
@Override
public void onAccuracyChanged(Sensor sensor, int accuracy) {
}
@Override
public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {
if (event.sensor.getType()==Sensor.TYPE_ORIENTATION) {
Global.Orientation = "Orientation is equal to: "+ SensorManager.getOrientation(mR, mOrientation);
}
}
sm is defined as SensorManager sm; as a class wide variable also. I've got some other classes outputting the Orientation to a screen which I know works. The problem is somewhere in these methods. Am I doing it wrong or Is there a better way of doing this?
