Android Question OkHttpUtils2 that support Api 17 (Android 4.1 or Android 4.2)

[Robert Valentino]

This is connected to this post:https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/expected-android-api-level-21.141620/#post-897673

I have a old program that uses HttpJob to download a file from the web and have been informed
that it isn't working with devices that are running api 17.

Probably been broken for a while (not many of my users us this api version)

Anyway I can easily fix this?

B4A 11.2 link: https://www.b4x.com/android/files/B4A_11_2.exe

It should include the older OkHttp / OkHttpUtils2 libraries.
You can use these libraries with newer versions of B4A.

I am just concerned about how this will effect version B4A 11.80 which I just installed.

Is there anyway of just getting the OkHttpUtils2 libraries without installing another version of b4a?

Don't want to clobber my installs

It won't as v11.2 will be 32bit and will install in Program Files (X86). Just install it, copy the files then uninstall it.

Ok, did the install of 11.2

Do I copy ALL the files that start with ok*.*

 

[Robert Valentino]

Also: Am I going to have to do this every time there is a release? And can/should I put them In my local directory or B4X Libraries directory

 

[Robert Valentino]

I deleted all the new Ok files and copied the v11.2 files and that appears to work.

Biggest problem I see is that now ALL my projects are using the old Ok files instead of just this special project.

Feel like there has to be a better way to do somethings by project and not globally
