B4J Question Missing Designer-menu

[ValhallSW]

Hi.
1. I downloaded this Server-app for B4J and it is working fine. BUT, if I want to make a GUI-window for configuration of the server, where has the Deigner-menu gone? I have tried to open a new app from scratch, where the Designer-menu is visible, and copied all the code into the modules. But then the server-app will not work.

2. Another problem is that the B4A-app that sends the Message, is the only one that recieves the Message back! I want to send the Message to ALL devices connected to the server.

You have created an non-UI app therefore you can't create a UI, so the designer feature is removed. See the top line of your Main module.

Think of your B4J app running on a server in a data center. Your not going to login every time to a server in the data center to view something running in the B4J app. I recommend you look at adding a web browser interface into your B4J app then you can login with a web browser and manage the B4J app.

You may need to submit another thread for this issue. There is a few other threads with the same question asked.
You can see an example that properly manages multiple connections here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4j-cctv-example.34695/#post-203347
