Hello,

I was just wondering: what is the best way to debug libraries written in Java/Eclipse ?

I can write a simple console app that launches the different methods etc, but how will I pass the BA object ? Or should I just pass null to these methods ?

Thanks,

Wim

From my experience the most convenient way is to debug the library by running a B4A project, with additional Log messages as needed. You can use "B4A" tag to write messages to the filtered logs.

I'm using a program named AutoHotKey with a batch file to make the library building simple as possible.

Erel,

Since I'm writing just some basic classes, ti could be helpful to debug within Eclise (just by writing a class with a main method).

Problem is that the wrapper code contains references to the BA object (eg: submitrunnable), which; obiously, I do not have.

Is there a way to mock this object ?

You do have Core.jar and BAShared.jar. They should be referenced in your project.
