GLBasic - en / Android 13 Update

Last post by MrPlow - 2023-Aug-27

Due to Google deadline for updates : End of August (with option to extend to 1 Nov)
(for older apps to be visible to newer devices - and for older apps remain eligible to update going forward)

Currently, I need to look into getting my apps all updated on weekends after work.
It has been a while, but already had some luck with getting an app without dependency on gms and ads to work and run on my phone and Android 12 & 13

See below a test with the very useful Browserstacks app testing platform...

So far so good!

I am still on older version of Android Studio and gradle model (5.4.1) and build
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.4'


I will look into the whole new Android Studio setup after this and when my new Windows 11 Laptop arrives...

Hi

From what I recall - the 64bit compile exe just overwrites the x86 one... in the same folder...
and u can check by a simple inspection of the exe I think?

Cant remember how though...

Bug Reports / 64-Bit compilation issues

Last post by Cliff3D - 2023-Aug-25

1) I can select Win64 as the target, but I cannot set the "build for this platform" tick - it is greyed out/disabled.

I can ONLY set 64 Bit compilation by pressing the "Multiplatform compilation" button.

Even so I can only build the 64 bit copy using "Multiplatform compilation"

2) When I compile to Win64 the build is compiled to "distribute\Win32\AppName" = should it compile to "distribute\Win64\AppName" ?

3) My nice new 64 Bit compile actually obeys the screen resolution set in Project...Options, whereas 32 Bit compile seems to decide on the resolution by itself?

I've tried selecting "Win64" as platform Configuration but "build for this program" is greyed out. If i build the .exe I get is 32 bit.

Am I missing a step (I'm running on Win11 Home 64 bit) or should I post this as a bug?

Ah! I think I've found it...

One has to use "Multiplatform compilation" from the toolbar and select 64 Bit there. The new 64 Bit build will then be compiled inside a folder called "AppName\distribute\Win32\AppName". it ignores the window resolution set in Project...options.

Oh. I'll take a look at this one. Sorry.

Nah, I'm sorry. Whenever I get back to GLBasic I seem to find "issues". But this is not unique to GLBasic - I just find problems everywhere I go!

I'm currently extremely anemic after a 7 unit blood transfusion earlier in the year - and i'm using the lack of iron in my blood as an excuse for wooly thinking

Cheers,

Cliff

I think it's just a problem in debugging mode.
if you add a line like:
debug LEN(strFileEntry$)+"\n" you will see the result is 0

Wow - many thanks for this. I believe in my project I have started passing the length of the string as an extra variable, so I can check that for 0 instead of checking the string for "".

Sorry for the delay in responding - I didn't get an email notification... but MANY thanks for your reply.

Cheers,

Cliff
