Hi,
I'm new in jPCT and I think I miss some thing and I have very strange behavior.
I made simple activity with PageViewer  https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/view/ViewPager.html
on each page (android fragment) I put MyRenderer from HelloWord example (I only modified to load obj model).

The important feature of PageViewer is that it load 3 fragments (one main and one on left and one on right) as visible and shows only main. Reason for that is to prepare next page to show to user.
So MyRenderer is run 2 or 3 times. And I suspect that this is the problem. But how to fix/solve/workaround this?

When start of app after while (5-9 sek.) I get crash:
Code: [Select]

I'm not quite sure what exactly you are doing...you have multiple instances of MyRenderer running in parallel on the same world instance?

I have multiple instances of MyRenderer running in parallel on multiple world instances. Each instance of MyRenderer has one instance of world class. (MyRenderer has private field for world instance).
But because of ViewPager I have 2 (or 3) MyRenderer instances.

My app shows 3d models of furniture with descriptions and etc. So on each page I want to show 3d model of piece of furniture. So I get the HelloWord app and move rendering to the android fragment.

When I limit ViewPager to show only one page it's work correctly. Problem appears only if I have to show more that one page.

the crash report point to line:
Code: [Select]
        world.renderScene(fb);in MyRenderer

Can you please test, if all these render calls are running into the same thread? Or does multiple views mean multiple threads?

As I know Android API the pages in ViewPager run in same thread (the UI thread). But on each page I have  GLSurfaceView instance  so  if GLSurfaceView runs separated thread for rendering then yes, I have multiple threads.
I workaround the problem, but I'm not  glad with this solution.
In short: i detect if fragment is visible to the user and then call glSurfaceView.onResume() if fragment goes out of screen then I call glSurfaceView.onPasue() this cause that only one GLSurfaceView is in state Resumed.
But this solution has some side effect: the models aren't preloaded and loaded when page are start showing to a user.

I hope that this workaround give you a clue what is root reason of issue and maybe you find a good solution :D

jPCT-AE isn't thread safe, so it's not supposed to be used by several threads in parallel. This also applies to multiple instances. However, I'm not sure if that's the actual problem here, because it doesn't really explain the exception that you are getting, nor do I understand why views that aren't visible are getting rendered!? Isn't that wrong anyway?
Can you please verify, if these GLSurfaceView instances are really running in multiple threads (just print out the Thread instance in each)?
