Library Install

[roarnold]

How can you tell if a library installs? I know that when I installed Reflection and a couple others I clicked in the Libs tab to refresh the tab. I installed another library but I do not see it in the Lib tab. Is it safe to say that it did not make it at all?

Thanks,

That is correct, what library are you referring to?

Double check your AddLibraries directory to make sure the files are in there. Also I usually restart B4A after installing new libraries.

There is no need to restart the IDE. You can right click anywhere in the libraries tab and choose Refresh.

Its an add-on .jar file for fonts that I would like to use. I have a Library that I have defined in the path configuration when I installed B4A that holds my additional lib. Those, like Reflection, all show up but after the refresh I still don't see the Font.jar one I need. I would have thought that it may show up in the Libs tab like Reflection, SQL, HTTP, etc...

So is it that I may not see it but it is available if needed in the compile?

Thanks,

Libraries have to be made specifically for B4A in order to use them. Where did the fonts.jar file come from?

I downloaded it from a company then I went into Eclipse and utilizing Erel (I think it was) tut built the library .jar and .xml files.
