PVRTrace on Android Xmarin OpenTK fails

PowerVR Insider

I am trying to get PVRTrace working on my Asus Memo Pad 7 which was not rooted. I was able to build and install my apk, and copy the pvrtraceconfig.json to /sdcard folder on my device. Debugging the the app shows that System.Load(“libPVRTrace.so”), etc, succeeds, and I get the following output:



…

[PVRTrace] Setting EglLibraryPath default to ‘/system/lib/libEGL.so’’

[PVRTrace] Setting Es1LibraryPath default to ‘/system/lib/libGLESv1.so’’

[PVRTrace] Setting EglLibraryPath default to ‘/system/lib/libGLESv2.so’’

…

[Mono] DllImport loaded library ‘./libEGL.os’

… and so on



The above three lines are the only indication that PVRTrace is part of my app. There are no errors; no other PVRTrace output. It is almost as if the config json file was ignored; and tracing never started.



The pvrtracconfig.json is cut-and-paste from documentation (except that I changed the path of EglLibraryPath, etc, to actual libs on the device).



Has anyone tested PVRTrace with Xamarin/OpenTK? Or am I doing something wrong?

Could you check in /data/local/tmp that a file exists named “pvrtrace_enable” which has the contents “1”?



Otherwise, send the logcat for the application loading.

I did add pvrtrace_enable to /data/local/tmp; but it made no difference.



I also tried to reply to the e-mail I received, but it bounced back with error "550 … User unknown"



Here is the logcat output (from Release build):
