Wish Tool to update to the latest libraries

[marcel]

Hi,

It would be very nice to have a tool that update all libraries to the latest. This because it takes now a lot of time to check all libraries. Specially if you use a lot of them as I do.

+1 and I'd like to add that the IDE should "listen" for file change event's in the "library" folder and auto refresh the IDE's libraries. For example if I recompile a library I use in several projects, the IDE should auto fresh it for me.

This question pops up all the time, the author of B4A has mentioned that there are no plans to implement such feature: read HERE and HERE or search the forums for other replies.

I'm not a library developer but is there a way in the library to trigger some kind of event that checks if there's a new version available? I know in VB/Delphi you could have a context menu that would be able to do something. Other than that maybe a push service could be setup or integrated with the forum such that a library poster could trigger a push to all subscribers, similar to "alerts"? A less than elegant solution is to just click "watch thread"

No, Erel was saying maybe in the future. So I thought If more people like it he will do this?

Hi Erel,

I know. But there is a lot of work involved to check everything. This functionality could really be helpfull.

Hi @Erel , it is possible to get the HOLE (or in selectable parts) Thread as RSS-feed? With such a RSS it should be no problem to write such an "Autoupdater" or whatever name it should have ;-)

I have tried to extend a url to a thread with "index.rss" but

http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/subscribe-to-library-updates.25000/index.rss

seems to not work Maybe it IS possible? And Maybe on a request you can say how many items you want to show

No. Only the last messages return.
