Android Question Calling native APIs

[Matjaz Jost]

I have to make a program for use on an Android based RFID scanner/terminal. I'm considering your B4A for the task. The main question there for me is if the native APIs of the Android and the RFID functions can be accessed and used from the B4A. I would communicate with the backend server by REST calls with JSON formatted data. I couldn't find the definitive answers on your web page so please let me know by mail if this is possible.

There is no standard API in Android to access a RFID scanner. Can you post a link to the device documentation?

I don't have the documentation yet. I'm checking if it's possible at first. I know some API exists and I'd like to know if this kind of additional or not standard APIs can also be called from B4A.

Everything is possible with B4A. It might require writing a wrapper library for the RFID SDK or accessing it with JavaObject.
