Android Question How to create b4xlib file?

[Olaan]

I'm not good at English and programming. I have just study this ,I have ThaiUtils library for B4A,B4J,B4i. I would like to convert to be b4xlib file.
I paste the comment in #Region Activity Attributes on my b4a project. It runs complete. I can't found b4xlib file. I don't know where it is. Please explain for me.

A b4xlib file is simply a zip file with the module files and optionally a manifest file. Open some libraries with 7zip and you will see the structure.

It will be in the same folder of the project file.


'Click to build b4xlib: ide://run?file=%JAVABIN%\jar.exe&WorkingDirectory=..&Args=-cMf&Args=LibraryNameHere.b4xlib&&Args=..&Args=*.bas&Args=manifest.txt

Replace LibraryNameHere with the name of your library, of course.

Replace LibraryNameHere with the name of your library, of course.

However, the library generated that way will contain all .bas files that it will find, therefore also B4XPages, which you will have to remove "manually".

You may have a look at chapter 4.8.1 Create a B4X library in the B4X Custom Views booklet.

Add a manifest.txt or remove the additional parameter mentioning the manifest.txt

 

[Olaan]

Success, Thank you for kind of you all.

I have the question the manifest.txt will conflict with others(each of projects),won't it?

 

[DonManfred]

AFAIK No

The Manifest file in the B4Xlib library must NOT be that one of the B4A project. It should mainly contain information such as the version number of the B4XLib and any dependencies on other libraries.

As Erel wrote, open some B4Xlib to see how they are made.
