Android Question B4A 13.5 Compile error missing file

[tsteward]

I have just last night set up a new computer. Downloaded the latest B4A 13.5 but when I try to compile my app I get the following error

B4A Version: 13.50
Parsing code. (0.38s)
Java Version: 19
Building folders structure. (0.02s)
Running custom action. (0.02s)
Compiling code. Error
Could not find file 'C:\Users\locki\Documents\LARA5\B4A\Objects\b4xlibs\Files\b4xinputtemplate.bal'.

It has to be something with my app as I created a test app and it created the file fine.

Try cleaning the Project.
In the B4A IDE, navigate to Tools > Clean Project. This will clear the Objects directory and force the compiler to recreate it and re-extract all required library files during the next build.

I presumed that you reinstated everything correctly in the first place.

I have tried cleaning. Other test apps compile. My app compiles fine in b4i. Might just have to go to previous B4A but that doesn't allow future features

Have you tried manually deleting the Objects folder?
Maybe the permissions got messed up during the transfer to your new PC.

Also, make sure the OneDrive or similar is not blocking things - on a new PC I imagine that it defaults to monitoring & backing up the User Documents folders.

Yes I have tried deleting everything in the objects folder. I don't keep my apps in folders that sync online as I find it screws them up.

Went back to B4A 13.40 and it works fine.

Sometimes I get this error in previous versions of B4A, but (until now) not in this new version.
b4xinputtemplate.bal is part of the XUI View lib.

When I get his error before, this is one of the fixed that I used:
- remove the XUI Views (or other libs that use it)
- clean the project
- add the XUI Views again

Have you tried moving this project LARA5 from the Documents folder to another folder?

Manually delete the objects folder, then try it again...
