Wish Additional Library - Search in folders.

[LWGShane]

I would love to see the "Additional Libraries" in the "Path Configurations" dialog gain optional recursive search abilities. Basically, I would love to have the option to have it search inside folders that are in the folder you select for the additional libraries folder. (I would love to store each library in it's own folder; it's more organized.)


Ex:
This:

Additional Libraries Folder
> Library 1 Folder
> Library 2 Folder


Instead of this:

Additional Libraries Folder
> Library 1 Readme
> Library 1 JAR file
> Library 1 XML file
> Library 2 Readme
> Library 2 JAR file
> Library 2 XML file



Thanks!

or at least an option to have multiple "additional libraries" paths.

Why ?
Using both B4A and B4J I have libraries that can be used only for B4A, others that can be used only for B4J and also a set that can be used for both (eg:Websockets).


I would like to have 2 additional libraries paths for B4A so I can link them to the common folder as well as the folder with specific libraries for the environment (B4A). Similar of course for B4J

@wl :

I have later decided to create folders for Android, Java and iOS libs.

You shouldn't use the same folder for libraries that belong to different platforms.

Erel,

I understand, but libraries such as WebSockets can be used in both B4J and B4A ? Or am I mistaking ?

If so: it would make sense to have a folder that contains libraries that are compatible with both B4A and B4J ?

Thanks

Actually this library is not compatible with B4J. jWebSocketClient is the relevant B4J libraries.

I recommend you to use two different folders.
