Server

[sourabhbans0007]

Hi there , I need to start TET server programmatically. how to achieve that. I have used

Code: Select all

final GazeManager gm = GazeManager.getInstance();
           System.out.println("GazeManager tracker state before   : "+gm.getTrackerState());
           boolean success = gm.activate(ApiVersion.VERSION_1_0, ClientMode.PUSH);

as given in theeyetribe's developers block. but it doesn't work.If i used to start server manually and run project than it works.
how to do that ?
thanx in advance.

yes, that is how i have it, and it works for me.
have you added the TETJava.jar file to your product?
and have you imported the GazeManager class:

Code: Select all

import com.theeyetribe.client.GazeManager;
import com.theeyetribe.client.GazeManager.ApiVersion;
import com.theeyetribe.client.GazeManager.ClientMode;

Probably the System.out you call is too early, at that stage you have just instantiated the GazeManager.

yes, i did it already as you said. i am working on eclipse and i added it in build path(and project reference) . and that (system.out.print...) is nothing, i mean its not for recognising TheEyeTribe server just ignore it. but it gives following error.

Code: Select all

Unable to open socket. Is EyeTribe Server running? Exception: Connection refused: connect
Error initializing GazeManager, is EyeTribe Server running?



and here is my code ...

Code: Select all

package tet;

import com.theeyetribe.client.GazeManager;
import com.theeyetribe.client.GazeManager.ApiVersion;
import com.theeyetribe.client.GazeManager.ClientMode;
import com.theeyetribe.client.IGazeListener;
import com.theeyetribe.client.data.GazeData;

public class TeTSimple
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        final GazeManager gm = GazeManager.getInstance();
        boolean success = gm.activate(ApiVersion.VERSION_1_0, ClientMode.PUSH);
       
        final GazeListener gazeListener = new GazeListener();
        gm.addGazeListener(gazeListener);
       
        //TODO: Do awesome gaze control wizardry
       
        Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread()
        {
            @Override
            public void run()
            {
                gm.removeGazeListener(gazeListener);
             gm.deactivate();
            }
        });
    }
   
    private static class GazeListener implements IGazeListener
    {
        @Override
        public void onGazeUpdate(GazeData gazeData)
        {
           
           double gX = gazeData.smoothedCoordinates.x;
            double gY = gazeData.smoothedCoordinates.y;
           
           
            System.out.println("data is : "+ gX+" , "+gY);
             
        }
    }
}

There is currently no functionality in neither the EyeTribe Open API nor any of the SDKs that will automatically open the EyeTribe Server. The method you mention initialize the SDK and establishes connection to a running server.

Since the process of launching another app or program is very platform specific we leave this for the developer to solve based on their target platform. Since our SDKs can be used on many platforms, this feature is a bit troublesome to generalize.

That being said, maybe this post can help you.

BR,
Anders

i was just asking that. actually i have done it by calling .exe file from program files in primary windows partition. but it seems not an exact way to achieve that ....
