SDL Unable to call Window.GetView

[TheVave]

Summary

I have been trying to use SDL to create a window (or in this case IView) in Android, but it is giving me the following error:
Silk.NET.SDL.SdlException: 'Application didn't initialize properly, did you include SDL_main.h in the file containing your main() function?'
This looks like an error from SDL, so I'm not sure what the cause would be.
Here's my code (that probably has something wrong):

var options = ViewOptions.Default;
options.API = new GraphicsAPI(ContextAPI.OpenGLES, ContextProfile.Core, ContextFlags.Default, new APIVersion(3, 2));
vw = Window.GetView(options);
vw.Run();

vw is an IView object.

Steps to reproduce (With above code)

• Platform: Android Mobile Emulator Pixel 5
• Framework Version: .NET 8 & MAUI
• API: OpenGLES 3.2

What’s the code for your activity?

I recommend familiarising with how Android development works. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/android/manifest?view=net-maui-8.0

Generally I just replace the MainActivity rather than removing it because I can't be bothered to deal with the manifest complications etc, but that link should explain more.

Testing with the following code for MainActivity.cs:

using Silk.NET.Windowing.Sdl.Android;
using Silk.NET.Windowing;
namespace PhoneTester;

[Activity(Label = "Debugging Application", MainLauncher = true)]
public class MainActivity : SilkActivity
{
	protected override void OnRun()
	{
		IView vw;

		var options = ViewOptions.Default;
		options.API = new GraphicsAPI(ContextAPI.OpenGLES, ContextProfile.Compatability, ContextFlags.Default, new APIVersion(3, 0));
		vw = Silk.NET.Windowing.Window.GetView(options);
		vw.Run();
	}
}

The above throws an exception about needing Bluetooth permission, yet when I go to settings it has that permission.
Also, I added a required permission of Bluetooth to the Required Permissions box when opening AndroidManifest.xml, and it still didn't work correctly.
Is this normal?

Make sure that you have BLUETOOTH_CONNECT in your manifest and that you're targeting API 31 or later. If the issue persists let me know, we have seen this before but we haven't had reports of it since we updated SDL. Make sure you're using the latest version of all silk packages also.

This is my AndroidManifest.xml (in xml viewer):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
	<application android:allowBackup="true" android:icon="@mipmap/appicon" android:label="@string/app_name" android:supportsRtl="true"></application>
	<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
	<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT" />
	<uses-sdk />
</manifest>

and it still throws the following error:

Java.Lang.RuntimeException: 'Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.companyname.pntstr/crc64893e06940e61b983.MainActivity}: java.lang.SecurityException: Need android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT permission for AttributionSource { uid = 10186, packageName = com.companyname.pntstr, attributionTag = null, token = android.os.BinderProxy@f384ee7, next = null }: AdapterService getBondedDevices'

I checked the packages and NuGet said they were up to date at 2.20.0.

PS: com.companyname.pntstr is the package name for my app package
