B4A Library LikeButtonView

The attached project warps the bare essentials of this Github project. There are files in the /Objects/res/xxx folders that are write protected and that the project depends on. Thus, if you want to use this project you need to use it as your base to start working from.

It raises a toggle event in the B4A project whenever the "like" view is clicked.

Posting the following:
1. The B4A project demonstrating this wrapper
2. The library files (2 x jar and 1 x xml) - copy them to your additional library folder.
3. The Java code - change it to your liking.

Below some pics of the animation that I caught in action:

Post it....I have just done the bare essentials and therefore posted the Java code in case someone wants to take it further...
 
Hi Johan, nice job, It is very comfortable to use in "Visual Designer" the Script-General you did it there.

Question for everybody.
I know I am asking too much, but with this library, (this is the visual art), Can we integrate it with the score system in Google Play store,? I mean, the end user select an example 4 stars in our APP and give it to play store without need to go manually to the web of Play Store , how we can do it?.

You will have to do that in the B4A code of your project. I merely brought back the toggle of the stars in the library via the wrapper into B4A. You will also need to keep track of the state of the stars in your B4A project (i.e wether a star is "enabled" or not). But that is easy /simple to do.

It's Single IE Not joined.You will need to treat every star differently.
 
This is great library, but I have small problem here
1.there is no lbv1.isstared method on this lib to know if there is star clicked or not, toggle seem only set it, but if we read star data from database we should need this method
2.I'm using kitkat 4.4.4 Cyanogenmod there is no animation like screenshot above, only zoom in / out animation when clicked

Thank You :D

As I have said in post #1, I have wrapped the bare essentials and therefore also posted the Java code for whoever wants to do something with it. I spent basically about 90% of the time on doing this wrapper to get rid of the dependency on ButterKnife. Have tested it ony on 2 x KitKat devices and it worked fine....as per the pics.
 
it is good library
But don't work with B4A 6 with Firebase ... you should remove android-support-annotations.jar with library because .I get Error :
