Export as zip to another computer

[jschuchert]

I want to install my app on my laptop by using the 'export to zip' files. There are many activities and files. No problem with the files...just copy and paste into the files at the bottom of the IDE. But I can't figure out how to do that with the activities other than "Project-Add New Module-Activity Module" one at a time. Is there a faster way?

Just do an "export as zip". Copy the zip file to your laptop, unpack the zip file and run your main project file.

I tried that before but it thinks the modules ('bas') files are in my C:\Documents and Settings folder so just keeps giving me the error message that it can't find the file. It goes through all 30 of them and then opens the Main activity but none of the others are shown as modules. The unpacked file has a folder named 'Testing' which then has 2 other folders (Files and Objects) all of the bas files are in the main 'Testing' folder. Main is not one of the bas files.

Never mind my last. I was doing it from the flash drive. It works fine after transferring to the computer. Stupid me!

Will this work if the directory/drive changes?

I started a project on my C drive but want to move it to F: and then delete it from C:. Will I have any problems?

No. All the paths are relative to the project main file path (.b4a).

If this is sharing a project bwteen your own computers, you should try dropbox. I use Dropbox on my work laptop and home laptop which both have Basic4Android installed
