Bug? B4A5.20 beta - Loading B4A 5.02 source

[MarcRB]

Hi Erel,

The new starter service results in a compile error at my existing B4A5.02 sourcecode.
At least I think so
Compiling in B4A5.02 version completes without an error.

This is the error:

B4A version: 5.20 BETA
Parsing code. (0.21s)
Compiling code. (3.54s)
Compiling layouts code. (0.37s)
Generating R file. (0.21s)
Compiling generated Java code. Error
javac 1.7.0_79
src\......\......\.......\main.java:62: error: cannot find symbol
if (anywheresoftware.b4a.objects.ServiceHelper.StarterHelper.startFromActivity(processBA, wl, true))
^
symbol: variable StarterHelper
location: class ServiceHelper
1 error

Do I need to add some lines in order to make 'ServiceHelper' a known identifier?

best regards,
Marc

After filling this bug-report, I realized that my current version is 5.02. The new beta is 5.20.
I think I missed some previous updates and maybe this causes that error.
Maybe the update step form .02 to .20 is to big.

V5.20 is the next version after 5.02.

You can upgrade to v5.20 from v1.00.

It seems like you are referencing the wrong Core.jar library (from the previous version). Try to reinstall v5.20 in a new folder (c:\B4A) and see whether it works or not.

Solved by re-install v5.20

Thanks
