Haxe/OpenFL: How do I override GameActivity.java

Question

Is there a way to override parts of an OpenFL-Template without modifying the installed version? Specifically I want to modify templates/android/src/org/haxe/nme/GameActivity.java.

I'm aware of examples that override AndroidManifest.xml via:

<template
    path="templates/android/AndroidManifest.xml"
    rename="AndroidManifest.xml"
    if="android"
/>

This works fine, but not for the desired Java-File.

I also tried to make a copy of the templates-Folder and put <template path="templates" /> in my project.xml-File, as described in the docs. (I even tried <templates` path="templates" /> because I think the docs are wrong.) Didn't work.

My custom GameActivity.java is ignored. Is there a way?

(I'm using Haxe 3.1.0-rc3, OpenFL 1.0.6 with OpenFL-native 1.0.7.)

Answer 1

You should override MainActivity.java (like you do for AndroidManifiest.xml). MainActivity extends GameActivity and you can override some parts. Or write your own 'GameActivity'.
