Android Question [solved]b4xtemplate in B4J is not alike in B4A

[Theera]

Hi all,
I have created my b4xtemplate by mixing Klaus's and Erel's ,but when I add the command #If B4A in B4A Ide,why not changed in B4J (there is not have #If B4A command in B4J) after I have saved.

'Klaus 's template code
....
....
'Erel's template addition only B4A 1.01
#if B4A  '<==Add the command
#Region Delegates

Sub Activity_ActionBarHomeClick
    B4XPages.Delegate.Activity_ActionBarHomeClick
End Sub

Sub Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode As Int) As Boolean
    Return B4XPages.Delegate.Activity_KeyPress(KeyCode)
End Sub

Sub Activity_Resume
    B4XPages.Delegate.Activity_Resume
End Sub

Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)
    B4XPages.Delegate.Activity_Pause
End Sub

Sub Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, Result As Boolean)
    B4XPages.Delegate.Activity_PermissionResult(Permission, Result)
End Sub

Sub Create_Menu (Menu As Object)
    B4XPages.Delegate.Create_Menu(Menu)
End Sub

#if Java
public boolean _onCreateOptionsMenu(android.view.Menu menu) {
     processBA.raiseEvent(null, "create_menu", menu);
     return true;
  
}
#End If
#End Region

#End If

Most of the time you should not modify the Main activity.

Most of the time you should not modify the Main activity.

I have modified only in B4XMainPage,but. Why they are not alike each together.

Not clear what you are trying to achieve.

 

[Theera]

Please to test my b4xtemplate,and test new projects both in B4A and B4J

 

[aeric]

Of course B4A and B4J are different. One use Activity the other use Form. B4A uses action bar but B4J use menu. You can't expect they appear the same. That's why B4XPages is a solution to make our job simpler.

I don't understand your question without you provide more accurate information.

 

[Sandman]

My best parsing of this thread is that @Theera is expressing confusion of one of these two:

1. Why B4i, B4A and B4J have different Main.

2. He has made a project and afterwards changed the template, and is now confused why the project isn't automatically updated to match the changed template.

Sorry if that's bad interpretation, I did my best to help.

 

[aeric]

He has made a project and afterwards changed the template, and is now confused why the project isn't automatically updated to match the changed template.

He does not mention what he has changed and what is expected vs reality.

Where is your modified template?

 

[Theera]

my file I'm sorry my computer is so very lately

1. Why B4i, B4A and B4J have different Main.

I agree.
@Theera is confused on this. My answer is in post #6.

I understand that then I use #if B4A condition for detecting in B4XMainPage. But it is not appear in B4J. (Usually,the code in B4XMainPage must be the same code the most of B4A ,B4i,and B4J

 

[aeric]

I understand that then I use #if B4A condition for detecting in B4XMainPage. But it is not appear in B4J.

It appears! but with error.

The code in post #1 is not needed in B4XMainPage class. It is already added in B4A Main module.


To create your own custom template, you should export the project using

'Ctrl + click to export as zip: ide://run?File=%B4X%\Zipper.jar&Args=Project.zip

then you get a clean project.

 

[Theera]

Ctrl + click to export as zip: ide://run?File=%B4X%\Zipper.jar&Args=Project.zip

Is there way to replace project.zip with %AppName%.zip

I have modified only in B4XMainPage,but. Why they are not alike each together.

No, you have modified the Main module with the #If B4A statement and not the B4XMainPage module.
The Main modules are specific for each platform, and therefore different, and belong to the *.b4a, *.b4j and *.b4i file and these are not shared between the platforms.
These files are located in their specific platform sub folder.
There is no need to modify the Main module and try to write code for more than one platform.
The B4XMainPage module is a common file, B4XMainPage.bas, for all three platforms and is located in the project folder.

You should use this.

'Ctrl + click to export as zip: ide://run?File=%B4X%\Zipper.jar&Args=\%PROJECT_NAME%.zip

B4XTemplates are explained in the B4X Cross-platform projects booklet.

I think we can move Erel' template from Main module to B4XMainPage as well

 

[klaus]

Sorry, I do not understand what you mean with this.

 

[Theera]

Sorry, I do not understand what you mean with this.

We can move Erel 's template from Main Module to B4XMainPage the same your template (Klaus' template) is by using #If B4A command. please see my code #1

Are you sure what you are doing?
