B4J Question Snippet Manager

Just received this from LucaMs, and it's a brilliant tool and whilst I can run it in B4J with either java 8 or Java 11, downloaded from B4X I can't get it to run as a standalone, either clicking on the JAR file in object using java 8 or the executable in the Temp/build folder using java 11. When run the windows flashes up for a second and then disappears

I've tried various combinations but getting nowhere, any idea's

Run it from the command line and you should be able to see the errors.

In Java 8

B4X: 
java -jar filename

Or in java 11 with build standalone package, I think there is a run_debug.bat created in the same folder as the executable.

To make it easier, take the batch file I attach and modify the paths as per your need.

The compilation must have been done with java 8:


[Remember that you can move lmSnippetManager213.jar wherever you want; to simplify, I moved it to c:\ and the batch file runs it from there]


Um... I named it wrongly, it should have been lmSnippetsManager

Hi, thanks for the input, the batch file once the path was edited to my version of java 8 works, thanks again

I realise that I can now run the Snippets Manager but could anyone explain why I needed the batch file and will I have to do this or something similar for any other program built with B4J, also why the standalone bit doesn't work with any Java over version 11, I think the latest is Java 16

I am a novice but would like to understand for the future, thanks again

Hi, Thanks I haven't read this but looks just what I need, to be honest, I've just been using your batch file but I will try this, many thanks again, the app is just what I wanted, I used to have something similar in good old VB6 and it was a godsend given my memory. Snippet Manager is something everyone should have on their desktop
