I am new to Godot and I am following the tutorial to add custom function on Android.
https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.1/development/cpp/creating_android_modules.html

After I add custom code (same as the tutorial), the app crash with the following error.

This is the code I added (copy and paste A singleton object template):

public class GodotApp extends Godot.SingletonBase {

    protected Activity appActivity;
    protected Context appContext;
    private int instanceId = 0;

    public int myFunction(String p_str) {
        // a function to bind
        return 1;
    }

    public void getInstanceId(int pInstanceId) {
        // You will need to call this method from Godot and pass in the get_instance_id().
        instanceId = pInstanceId;
    }

    static public Godot.SingletonBase initialize(Activity p_activity) {
        return new GodotApp(p_activity);
    }

    public GodotApp(Activity p_activity) {
        //register class name and functions to bind
        registerClass("MySingleton", new String[]
                {
                        "myFunction",
                        "getInstanceId"
                });
        this.appActivity = p_activity;
        this.appContext = appActivity.getApplicationContext();
        // you might want to try initializing your singleton here, but android
        // threads are weird and this runs in another thread, so to interact with Godot you usually have to do
        appActivity.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                //useful way to get config info from project.godot
                String key = GodotLib.getGlobal("plugin/api_key");
                //SDK.initializeHere();
            }
        });

    }

    // forwarded callbacks you can reimplement, as SDKs often need them

    protected void onMainActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {}
    protected void onMainRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {}

    protected void onMainPause() {}
    protected void onMainResume() {}
    protected void onMainDestroy() {}

    protected void onGLDrawFrame(GL10 gl) {}
    protected void onGLSurfaceChanged(GL10 gl, int width, int height) {} // singletons will always miss first onGLSurfaceChanged call

}

Before I add any code on Java file, it runs no problem.
It can also run on PC smoothly.
My configuration:

  • Android: Android Studio 3.5.3
  • NDK(side by side): 21.0.6113669
  • Java: jdk-12.0.2
  • Phone: Samsung Galaxy S10 with Android 10.
  • The app is run by connecting my phone via USB cable and pressing Android icon on the top-right corner.

Thank you for your patient.
