Summary: SDL_RWFromFile fails when trying to access a file on assets directory

Description Francisco Vallarino 2014-03-24 17:41:29 UTC 
Trying to access a file on APK's assets directory using SDL_RWFromFile fails on SDL 2.0.3 (it worked fine on 2.0.1). 

Debugging the procedure I see that the error happens in the call to SDL_AndroidGetInternalStoragePath(), which in turn fails at:

mid = (*env)->GetMethodID(env, (*env)->GetObjectClass(env, fileObject),
    "getAbsolutePath", "()Ljava/lang/String;");

displaying the following log:

F/libc    (14491): Fatal signal 6 (SIGABRT) at 0x0000389b (code=-6), thread 14504 (SDLThread)

I'm using the default SDL2 Android project, and testing on Android 4.4.2.

Regards,
Francisco

My bad. I only updated the dependencies on src directory instead of replacing the whole Android sample project. It works fine now.
