Running a Haxe callback from Java

How do you get Java notifications back to Haxe’s method?

You should be able to pass a callback from Haxe to Java, but it’s important that you do not call the Haxe method until it is in the right thread. Most of the Java runs in a different thread than the Haxe render thread.

Sort of like this:

github.com

HaxeExtension/extension-amazonads/blob/master/dependencies/amazonads/src/com/pozirk/ads/AmazonAds.java#L52-L60


		Extension.mainActivity.runOnUiThread(new Runnable()
		{
			public void run()
			{
				Extension.mainActivity.addContentView(_parentView, new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(-1, -1));
				//Log.d("amazonads", "main activity: "+Extension.mainActivity);
				_callback.call("onStatus", new Object[] {"INIT_OK", "", ""});
			}
		});

Note that Java doesn’t accept callbacks as is, but you pass an object which has methods.
