Good! I recently updated also the web site uploading the new format of the ini file.

See you soon and contact me if you need support.

The content in the file I previously used is “[Config] counter = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,test,end”. When I replace this file with what you sent to me, everything works well now.

> 2) StepLogger Client: a service generating fake positions. During EvAAL this application must be removed and replaced with you localization application acting as client for StepLogger.

> In order to run StepLogger you have to copy the .ini file inside the Download directory of your mobile phone. After that, you can run the StepLogger following these instructions. Every time you press the blu button, Steplogger logs the file "buttonsPressed.log".
> If you run SteploggerClient you can start the fake localization system that generates fake positions. StepLoggerClient shows 2 buttons "Start Logging Position" and "Stop Logging Position". Clicking on "Start Logging Position" StepLogger now will log 2 files:
> buttonsPressed.log 
> positions.log
> If you want to use you own localization application (the one you will use at EvAAL):
> install StepLogger
> (if installed) open StepLoggerClient and and click on "Stop Logging Position." In order to be 100% sure, you can also un-install StepLoggerClient
> Install your own localization application and run it
> open StepLogger, add the name of the competitor and press the first blue button
> explore the directory where Steplogger logs the files and double check that StepLogger logs the two files:
> buttonsPressed.log 
> positions.log
> 
> Some notes:
> 1) Be sure that your mobile phone runs : StepLoggerClient OR you localization application. I never tried having two clients for StepLogger running at the same time.
> 2) From your email I understand that you run you localization application + StepLoggerClient + StepLogger
> 3) Code you localization application so that it is possible to stop the localization system and hence it is possible to stop the invocations to the methods in the AIDL interface
> 4) I tested StepLogger and StepLoggerClient with Nexus 4, Xiami MI2 and with Sony Xperia X2 as well as with Samsung Tablet (even if this last is not allowed at EvAAL since it is a tablet)
> I attach to this email a simple INI file to copy inside the Download folder of your mobile phone. Again, check these instructions section 2.1

>> Dear Software Manager,
>> 
>> I am a competitor who will attend EvAAL at IPIN 2015 (track #1). Now I face a problem about the software:
>> 
>> I have added the StepLoggerClient into my project and now it work well on logging my navigation solutions into the positions.log file, this is good.
>> 
>> My problem is with the StepLogger APP. I can open it and set the competitor ID, then it comes to the blue GUI that have a “1” on it. At this time, if I click the screen, the screen will turn from blue to green and then the APP will crash. 
>> 
>> I have tried several ways, like: 1) first run my project with StepLoggerClient, then run the StepLogger APP; 2) first run the SteoLoggerClient APP, then run the StepLogger APP; 3) just run  the StepLogger APP, and 4) first run the StepLogger APP, then run the the SteoLoggerClient APP or my project with StepLoggerClient. But everytime I met the same problem: the StepLogger APP will crash imediately when I click “1”.
>> 
>> I have tested two phones: one Xiaomi 4 and one Samsung Galaxy 4. They have the same problem.
>> 
>> So I am not sure whether if there is anything wrong in my opreation, or a bug in the StepLogger APP. Could you please check it for me? Thanks very much!
