Android Question Error : Symbol not found

[jkhazraji]

Hello everybody,
I followed @Erel tutorial to create a b4a library. So I compiled it properly in Eclipse with the Doclet downloaded from the B4X site as recommended. I copied the resulting .jar and .xml files to the Additional Libraries subfolder of b4a program folder. I referred to the library from Library tab. Then I defined

Private x as classname

a class instance as the (ShortName) in Java File and tried to use one of its methods (methodname).
When I run the app in b4a IDE I get the following error:
"Symbol not found"
with a preceding underscore added to the defined name ( _x.methodname ) which I don't know where from it came.
I am grateful to anybody who can explain this.
Regards.

[Tool] Simple Library Compiler - Build libraries without Eclipse

The purpose of Simple Library Compiler (SLC) is to make it easier to build libraries. SLC is responsible for taking the Java source code files and generating the Jar and XML files. As I see it, it can be useful in two cases: - Creating wrappers for 3rd party SDKs. - Modifying and extending...

with a preceding underscore added to the defined name ( _x.methodname ) which I don't know where from it came.

When compiling to Java B4X adds a leading underscore and lowercases names of variables and Subs. You only need to worry about this if you are using inline Java code.

I can't comment further without seeing the actual error message and the jar and xml.
