Android : Need to create Shared Preferences object in c++ NDK and Store some Boolean value

Issue

I am new to this don't know how to start this,

I have created a project that is linked to C++ using Android.mk

So when I call a method from java it should do the storing boolean value to my shared preference object.

This is my JNI method

extern "C"
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL
Java_com_example_sample_storeBoolean(JNIEnv *env,jobject instance){
//TODO 
const char *name ="hello";
__android_log_print(ANDROID_LOG_ERROR, "TRACKERS", "***** %s *****", name);
}

normal log I have printed it is working now only just need create sharepreference object and set boolean value

SharedPreferences prefs = context.getSharedPreferences("myprefdata", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);

prefs.edit().putBoolean("settingnootification", true).commit();

Please guide me how to do. Thanks

public abstract SharedPreferences getSharedPreferences(String name, int mode);

Need to use this method in c++

Solution

I need to call a getSharedPreferences() method, So how can I call that and store boolean.

So, I have created two simple methods for storing and retrieving boolean value in NDK C++

MainActivity.java

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    // Used to load the 'native-lib' library on application startup.
    static {
        System.loadLibrary("Native");
    }
    private Activity activity;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        activity=MainActivity.this;
        setStoreBoolValues(activity, true);

        if (getStoreValues(activity))
            Log.e("Store Value", " ** true **");
        else
            Log.e("Store Value", " ** false **");
    }

    public native boolean getStoreValues(Activity activity);
    public native void setStoreBoolValues(Activity activity, boolean flag);
}

Declared Native Method in MainActivity and also called my .so file

NativeClass.Cpp

jobject mainClass;

jstring spname(JNIEnv *env) {
    return env->NewStringUTF("sharedstore");
}

jstring objectname(JNIEnv *env) {
    return env->NewStringUTF("boolvaluestore");
}

extern "C"
JNIEXPORT jboolean JNICALL
Java_com_ebizzinfotech_amjad_contentresolverproj_MainActivity_getStoreValues(JNIEnv *env,
                                                                             jobject instance,
                                                                             jobject activity) {

    jclass spcls = env->FindClass("android/content/SharedPreferences");
    jclass contextcls = env->FindClass("android/content/Context");
    mainClass = env->NewGlobalRef(activity);
    jmethodID mid = env->GetMethodID(contextcls, "getSharedPreferences",
                                     "(Ljava/lang/String;I)Landroid/content/SharedPreferences;");
    jmethodID midbool = env->GetMethodID(spcls, "getBoolean",
                                         "(Ljava/lang/String;Z)Z");
    jobject jobjectshared = env->CallObjectMethod(mainClass, mid, spname(env), 0);
//    jobject jobjectsharededit  = env->CallObjectMethod(jobjectshared,midedit);
    jboolean jboolean1 = env->CallBooleanMethod(jobjectshared, midbool,objectname(env), JNI_FALSE);

    env->DeleteLocalRef(spcls);
    env->DeleteLocalRef(contextcls);
    return jboolean1;
}
