Wish "Do not compile when not needed"

[LucaMs]

Developing Android-B4a clients, I have to compile-install 2 or 3 times the same version of project on 2 or 3 devices.

I know, I could copy the apk on the second and third device manually (if I'm using the Bridge I should use FTP) but the IDE knows if I have modified the project since the last compilation, therefore it would be very useful if just the installation was executed.

Note that you can automate installation on multiple devices with BridgeCLI: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/bridgecli-command-line-tool-for-b4a-bridge.76536/#content

In debug mode the compiler avoids recompiling if not needed. This is currently not the case in release mode (it is almost never relevant).

Have to read it.

In debug mode the compiler avoids recompiling if not needed.

I know and it is really fast; but, as you know, I cannot run in debug mode on two or more devices at the same time

If I understand well, you should not connect the device to the IDE using the Bridge (moreover you could not do it on more than one device) and creating a simple .bat you can automate the installation of the apk on more than one device, right?

Luca you should start a new thread for questions about BridgeCLI.

Sorry, you're right.
