So, I am trying to load this file (I can see it in the jar(zip) file.):

B4X:

prefdialog.LoadFromJson(File.ReadString(File.DirAssets, "login.json"))

I have tried this but it tells me it is missing a parameter.

B4X:

Dim sFile As String = File.DirAssets &  "login.json"
prefdialog.LoadFromJson(File.ReadString(jf1.LoadFileFileFromJar(sFile)))

try

B4X:

Dim sFile As String = "login.json"
prefdialog.LoadFromJson(jf1.LoadFileFileFromJar(sFile))

Click to expand...

When jf1.Initialize(True):
java.lang.RuntimeException: JSON Object expected.

When jf1.Initialize(False):
Too many errors with the loading of the B4XPreferencesDialog.

I will drop this idea of compiling it into a library and simply use the classes I wrote directly in my apps.
That way they work just fine.

Many thanks for your help.

You should create a b4xlib. It is a matter of creating a zip file with the modules. Unzip XUI Views.b4xlib for an example.
