harmony binding bug

I trying since days to setup the harmony binding, and i’m unable to manage it. But now i think it is a bug. I’m not really sure if it is a bug in the harmony bindung but in the core framework. Nervertheless i found it here, so i thought it would be the right way to post it here.

All Things were found correctly the hub, and the devices. Nevertheless the the device does not have a pointer the bridge (hub). I tried it with paperUI and with HABmin. There is no way to select the bridge (hub). This leads to a nullpointerException

So i started it in the debugger and found out that the harmonyHub is not initialised in the device.

I’m talking about HarmonyHubHandler bridge in HarmonyDeviceHandler.java

But as <supported-bridge-type-refs> is a core function i’m not really sure, if it is a bug in the binding or somewhere else.

Hi all, I have a fix I am testing today, I’ll post a updated jar here soon

@digitaldan Thanks for the quick fix. It seems to be working now, however, I got a lot of exceptions during boot and I keep getting this sort of message after pressing a harmony button:
