I'm happy to release a new version of B4i.

  1. Support for Java 14, which is now the recommended version: https://www.b4x.com/b4j/files/java/jdk-14.0.1.zip
  2. Firebase 3.00 / iAdMob 3.00 - based on updated SDKs. This is a large change under the hood. If using hosted builder, and not using B4i v8.30, then you need to update the internal libraries in order to compile: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/firebase-admob-v3-00.144798/#content
  3. Improvement to error logs. The IDE will try to select the relevant message in the long text.
  4. Map.Put / CreateMap support Nulls as values. This is mostly important for Json.
  5. Updated libraries: iPhone v2.01, iCore v8.30, iFirebaseAnalytics v3.00, iFirebaseAuth v3.00, iFirebaseStorage v3.00, iFirebaseNotifications v3.00
  6. Ctrl + Alt + W closes the current code window.
  7. Bug fixes and other small improvements.
Developers who are eligible for a free upgrade will receive an email with upgrade instructions, other developers will receive a discount renewal offer.

Hi Erel,

can it be that the version of the Localer builder has not changed?
The version 8.10 is still displayed.

How do we update to 8.30? I have a hosted builder subscription, how do I check it's status?

Is it mandatory to upgrade to JDK14 before installing B4i 8.30 or can it be posponed to a later time?
BTW, in my case I use the Hosted Builder for compilation, but the question is general in its nature.

Thank you

Thanks Filippo. I agree with you that recommended is the term used by @Erel, but I'm inclined to understand it as "you're strongly adviced that in a short time JDK14 will be the reference version for all the B4x tools", so my question.
If we were to expect a forthcoming B4A release in a month or so, I'd rather wait for it and upgrade everything to JDK14 in one shot at that time.
