OverflowError: value too large to convert to jshort

[AnEx-ofc]

Hi,
I am geting this error:

10-22 00:34:43.056 1595 1894 I python : File "jnius/jnius_export_class.pxi", line 1164, in jnius.jnius.JavaMultipleMethod.call
10-22 00:34:43.056 1595 1894 I python : File "jnius/jnius_export_class.pxi", line 872, in jnius.jnius.JavaMethod.call

10-22 00:34:43.057 1595 1894 I python : OverflowError: value too large to convert to jshort

for this line:
intent.putExtra(name, 1_234_567_890)
Most probably because of:
File "jnius/jnius_utils.pxi", line 321

pyjnius/jnius/jnius_utils.pxi

Line 321 in c144e96

if r == 'S' or r == 'I':

Both short and integer having same scoring logic, if short is come later in sign_args it got selected even though value not fit inside the short value range

You can specify the signature of the method you want - see example at

pyjnius/tests/test_constructor.py

Line 56 in c144e96

inst = ConstructorTest(outputStream, signature="(Ljava/io/OutputStream;)V")

Otherwise, it seems you know the problem here - could you make a test case and try to work on a patch?

@cmacdonald Hi, I have not done anything like that, so I'm not aware of the right way. If you guide a bit, I will gladly do that.
BTW, thanks for the comment.

@AnEx-ofc did you try the signature trick?

@cmacdonald i bypass this issue by passing string and convert it to int in java that time, next time i face similar issue ill do that.
