Question

Using the sample app provided in the android download, I would like to use api.disableBumping() in the onCreate() method to add the broadcastreceiver but disablebumping until further notice. Application keeps crashing on me.

Any pointers?

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, 
            WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    bindService(new Intent(IBumpAPI.class.getName()),
                connection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);

    IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter();
    filter.addAction(BumpAPIIntents.CHANNEL_CONFIRMED);
    filter.addAction(BumpAPIIntents.DATA_RECEIVED);
    filter.addAction(BumpAPIIntents.NOT_MATCHED);
    filter.addAction(BumpAPIIntents.MATCHED);
    filter.addAction(BumpAPIIntents.CONNECTED);
    registerReceiver(receiver, filter);

    try {
        api.disableBumping();
    } catch (RemoteException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }


}

In the lines below I’m explaining how the logic of Bump works,

When calling

bindService(new Intent(IBumpAPI.class.getName()), connection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);   

the onServiceConnected gets called, which then you can call

    api = IBumpAPI.Stub.asInterface(binder);

    try  { api.configure("YOUR_API_KEY", "Bump User"); }
    catch (RemoteException e)  { } 

Then you wait till the broadcast CONNECTED is received, from that point and onwards it’s up to you when to call the api.enableBumping() or api.disableBumping()

Note: If your connection is down when calling the api.configure() a remote exception will be thrown.
