Basic4android v1.90 is released!

[Erel]

I'm happy to release Basic4android v1.90.

This version includes several important new features:

- Designer scripts - this is probably the most innovative feature added to Basic4android since the first version. It will make it much easier to support different screen sizes and resolutions. Designer Scripts Tutorial

- B4A-Bridge - now supports Bluetooth connections as well as wireless connections. http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4andr...8-b4a-bridge-new-way-connect-your-device.html

- Java 7 JDK is supported.
- The logging system was improved and all error messages should now show in the filtered logs.
- List.SortType - new method that allows sorting items of custom types based on one of the type fields.
- Bug fixes and other minor improvements.

Notes

- Layout files created (or updated) with v1.90 are not compatible with previous versions. For that reason it is recommended to backup your projects before upgrading.

- The designer and debugger require Android 2.0 or above. Compiled programs are still supported by Android 1.6 or above.

Users who are eligible for a free upgrade should receive a mail with installation instructions.
Please contact [email protected] if you don't see the mail in 24 hours. Make sure to check your spam folder.

I like B4A

I'm eager to test the new 1.90 version. Thanks!

Good work Erel. The new scripting feature is great.
I update all my layouts and everything works fine.
Thanks!

Woo hoo! Thanks Erel.

I'll upgrade in a few days time, once things have calmed down sufficiently to allow me to do so! Just in the middle of making some App updates, once those have been done and I've kept a backup of them I'll upgrade

Missing net and reflection libraries in v1.90 ?

Hi. Version 1.8x worked fine. When I went to
v1.90 final release, I had trouble not finding
net and reflection libraries and had to copy them
from v1.8x to v1.90. Problem may have been
with my PC. All is now working.

no email

I didn't get an email Erel.

Has my 2 months expired?

If it has when I get more money I'll get full licence.

regards, Ricky

Breathtaking

I thought Ver 1.8 was already an unparalleled masterpiece.

 

[T4r4ntul4]

nice update!

Erel,

You might just update your homepage to reflect the release of v1.9 instead of 1.8

 

[Penko]

I've also notified him about this, he'll do it when he has the time to. Meanwhile, let's enjoy 1.9

I just finished an app on an Android tablet that uses the camera, the GPS and SQLLite using v1.80 to capture pavement condition information. I find that the more I use it, the more I like it - it's a great product that makes it easy for us non-pro programmers to write very useful applications. Thanks for making it even better:sign0142:

Erel -- I thought I remembered your saying something about v1.90 having some changes in the debugger, possibly to help solve the problem of not being able to see all values for large arrays, etc.

Were any such changes made, or was that just my wishful thinking?

 

[Penko]

I suggest that you write a new topic about this as this one is getting bigger(currently 6 pages) and there is a chance that Erel misses your question.

 

[Erel]

The debugger was not improved in this version. It is planned for one of the next versions.

Okay, thanks. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing it.

Thank you for the release! This is actually my first version, and I'm loving it!

Hi Erel,

I purchased v1.8 Enterprise Version and did not receive the download link for the upgrade.

Thanks! Great work!



EDIT:

Found it! It's in the spam folder. My bad.

Cheers!
