Kindle Chinese Chess

Can you tell me how to Install your source code (with Netbean)?
I've installed it but not worked.

The error was "Main class not found"

I think you should read about Kindlet development and design. There are various threads in this board. They are not typical Java applications, so there's no main class.

I can not run it. It just stop at the beginning , like this: What's the problem?

I guess the Netbean "thinks" you are writing a program to be run on the PC and has no idea that it is actually running on Kindle.

To change the program able to run on PC, you need to re-design the GUI that is matching with the PC's hardware...

The current project cannot be "run" under the Netbean - You can only copy the generated JAR file, signed it with the sign tool and then copy across and run on the Kindle.

It could be anything - But my best guess is "you are run out of memory"...

This program use a lot of resources as it need to store the Chess graphic images.

The first thing I would do is turn off the WiFi (airplane mode), it can save some memory and see if the program work.

The second thing is check if your Kindle has enough space in storage. The program required at least 512 bytes to save the stage of the Chess Game so that you can carry on the game even it has been power off (sleep) and on again. I have used three of those bytes to store the Game Time so that the Time counting can be continued (this fix will be included in the next release...)

Delete some files and run the game again to see if it works.

Last but not least - Recharge your battery! Your screen dump show your battery level is low, the Kindle may not have enough power to run the chess game!...

I try all you said and still can't fix the problem. One thing I forgot to tell you is that I just updated to 5.3.2.1 . May this be a reason?

I also encountered this problem before. but after upgraded to the latest version, it runs without problem. not sure what's the cause. is there a way to capture an error log?

Thank you very much! Download the latest version from this post and see if your problem has gone:

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...7&postcount=48

The reason may be I am using the latest version of library from KDK (version 2.2) while the first version of Chinese Chess is using an older version of library which may not be able to run if you have just updated the firmware...

Sorry, there is NO error log - I have add some debug routines already in the program, but don't think you can use it easily...Hope this can be improved later.

[twobob]

IF it crashed... which it didn't there would a file

/mnt/us/developer/App\ KindletChineseChess/work/crash.log

Perhaps you should indicate it as 5.3.2 ONLY in the RELEVANT POST.

Thanks for the report.

....

From the look of crash log, it mentions "KindletSecretKey" has returned a null exception...

There are a few possibilities - Most likely is you don't have the correct developer store.

Each application used in Kindle require a developer key to match with it, the process are done automatically if you purchase the items via Amazon using the WiFi.

But because you just copy this Chiness Chess to your Kindle, the Developer Keystore will missing the correct developer ID unless you have added it yourself manually!

Search through the various threads from this forum to learn how to add the Developer Key (For the required Key here - See first post of this Chinese Chess thread) to your Developer Keystores in your Kindle.

Or if you have NOT bought anything yet from the Amazon's store, just use the attached "combined" developer store - It works for me...
