java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: StartNodeJS Not Supported.

[adonnini]

Hi,

When running node.js in my Android app via J2V8, I am getting the following error:

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: StartNodeJS Not Supported.

Would you be able to produce an updated aar with

with
-D NODE_COMPATIBLE=1
option?

Thanks,

Alex Donnini

Please see #216

Thanks. I appreciate your response. Very disappointing.

Frankly, I wonder (not just because of this response) whether this project is becoming dormant.

Am I offbase? I need to have a reliable/stable JS engine for my Android Java app. I was hoping J2V8 was the one.

Again, thanks for your response.

We are reducing the scope of this project to better server JS on Android (see #441) and better set honest expectations. However, Node will not be supported (it never worked on Android), but V8 on Android with J2V8 has been pretty stable for our use cases. I'm closing this as out-of-scope.

Hi Ian, Thank you very much for your response. What you say and plan on doing makes perfect sense. Actually, this is good news for me, I think. Now, I need to figure out how to run a JS driver (Bigchaindb) in my Android app written in Java using J2V8. Do you think I should be able to do this? Thanks, Alex Donnini Ian Bull wrote:

I don't know what Bigchaindb is, but as long as you can get all your dependencies loaded, this should be possible. We've run some pretty big JS apps on J2V8 without problems. But if they rely on the Node.js APIs, this won't work (unless you can provide shims for them).

Thanks Ian. I'll start working on this. I hope you won't mind if I ask questions as I go along (via GitHub). Thanks, Alex Ian Bull wrote:
