Rhino and Beanshell do not work on Cyanogen

[GoogleCodeExporter]

(NOTE: I don't know how to re-open an issue, so I am filing this and providing 
a link to the appropriate material.)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install SL4A, then add Beanshell and Rhino interpreters via the appropriate 
menu options.
2.  Try to run one of the provided scripts.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Don't know what is expected -- have never seen it working.  What I *saw* 
(again) was a 'class not found' error.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SL4A_R0 on rooted Mytouch 3G running Cyanogen 6.

Please provide any additional information below.

I can't reproduce this error. Could you provide a logcat output? Also, please 
provide the script your tried to run. Also, try uninstalling BeanShell, 
deleting all .zip files from your SD card, and reinstalling it. It's possible 
you're getting an old version...

Sorry this took so long -- had to work the day job today. :P

OK, since I am running rooted, and since this seems to be a file permissions 
problem -- apparently the dalvik-cache stuff -- I first made sure Terminal 
didn't have 'su' permissions, I turned off Swapper2, I manually deleted (as 
requested) all .zip files from my /sdcard, I uninstalled Beanshell, Rhino, and 
SL4A (in that order).

Then I rebooted and re-installed SL4A and Rhino.

Output from file listing run in adb shell:

I'm a little curious why there is a (very) recent file called 
'/data/dalvik-cache/data@app@com.googlecode.rhinoforandroid-1.apk@classes.dex', 
but the logcat shows 
'/data/dalvik-cache/mnt@sdcard@com.googlecode.rhinoforandroid@extras@rhino@rhino
1_7R2-dex.jar@classes.dex'.

I dunno.  I just installed an app called 'aLogcat', and its running just fine.  
All my apps installed after rooting seem to be fine, and their .dex files seem 
to be in /data/dalvik-cache (as they are supposed to be, I think?).

HTH!

Ah, lemme guess: 
'/data/dalvik-cache/data@app@com.googlecode.rhinoforandroid-1.apk@classes.dex' 
are the installer classes, etc., whereas the (apparentl non-existent) 
'/data/dalvik-cache/mnt@sdcard@com.googlecode.rhinoforandroid@extras@rhino@rhino
1_7R2-dex.jar@classes.dex' are supposed to be the actual rhino runtime.

Looks like it's Cyanogen specific issue. Apparently, setting ANDROID_DATA to 
'/mnt/sdcard/com.googlecode.rhinoforandroid' does not really work there. We'll 
try to find a way around.

I was wondering about that. ('ANDROID_DATA') 

To me, it looks like an environment variable?  I'm too new to Android to be 
sure, and if it is, if/how one could set it from within SL4A, or I would have 
already tried.

Thanks for looking at this.

Interestingly (to me anyway), after a fresh reboot when I connect via 'adb 
shell', the environment is a bit different:

# set
ANDROID_ASSETS=/system/app
ANDROID_BOOTLOGO=1
ANDROID_CACHE=/cache
ANDROID_DATA=/data
ANDROID_PROPERTY_WORKSPACE=10,32768
ANDROID_ROOT=/system
ASEC_MOUNTPOINT=/mnt/asec
BOOTCLASSPATH=/system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:/system/frame
work/framework.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:/system/framework/servic
es.jar
EXTERNAL_STORAGE=/mnt/sdcard
IFS='   
'
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/system/lib
OPTIND=1
PATH=/sbin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin
PS1='# '
PS2='> '
PS4='+ '
TERMINFO=/system/etc/terminfo
#

So I wonder why ANDROID_DATA is changed?

Any movement on this issue? I am dying to try this, but have same problem 
(Cyanogen 6 RC3 for Moto Droid).

Thanks!

Please try with the just release SL4A r1. However, I suspect this is an issue 
with Cyanogen.

@ Cyanogen Mod 6

File permissions are too strict. Got mine working.

/cache
/cache/dalvik-cache
/data
/data/dalvik-cache

These dir permissions don't have 'other/world' r/w which causes failure to load 
class data's.

This is actually android issue 966

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=966

I'm trying to figure out how to install jar files using an apk. It may be 
pointless. It seems like google doesn't want us to have our own "user library 
cache" (eg. /usr/lib/dalvik-cache". Which is unacceptable to me as a developer. 
I can understand why for "system files" because it is a security risk, but for 
an application library? This does not support code reuse or application 
extensibility which is "supposedly" one of the goals of the android platform. 
There needs to be a permission system created for applications that would give 
each application a user name on the system which would then delegate access to 
the libraries in the user cache by proxy. That's just my take on the 
sit-chee-ation.

I solved this.
1)open this file: 
/mnt/sdcard/com.googlecode.rhinoforandroid/extras/rhino/rhino1_7R2-dex.jar
2)extract the file classes.dex to /data/dalvik-cache/
3)change the file permission of classes.dex to rw-r--r--
4)change the owner of classes.dex to 1000 (system)
5)change the group of classes.dex to 1000 (system) or 2000 (shell)
6)change the name of classes.dex to 
mnt@sdcard@com.googlecode.rhinoforandroid@extras@rhino@rhino1_7R2-dex.jar@classe
s.dex
