Hi :)
GLbasic can compile android applications with Java 7 SDK?
Thanks.
No, it uses the NDK - and Java

Yes, but what version of Java?
Welcome Armoures... for compile for Android donwload the JDK, donwload the lastest, but I think you need x32, if you have windows x64, donwload and install jdk x32... whit x64 perhaps you have troubles...
Ok!
I have the last version of GLBasic (10.283) with the 32 bit JDK 7 but when I try to compile, for example "Scramble.gbas", for Android I have these errors:

Why?
Ok Armoured, now I don´t know exactly the error, but it´s always common this problems... Not it´s trouble of Glbasic, I´m sure...
I tell you what you can do...
In the Help (F1), goes to this part:
GLbasic intern, and after goes to Compiling for Andriod... follow the steps whit calm, and if you make all and don´t works, I or another people sure can resolve the trouble...
About you error, I´m not sure but you donwload the Android SDK?¿, b sure to put correctly the enviorement variables
PS: Making the Help says have to works
For that error message, create a directory in <program files> \platform\android\android-sdk-windows\add-ons
I think it uses V6 or so of Java for some bits/
Now it works! :good:
I follow these two steps:
1) I have created a key for the debugger with this command in the cmd window.
C:\Users\YourUserName\.android>"c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_03\bin\keytool.exe" -genkey -keypass android -keystore debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -validity 1000 -dname "CN=Android Debug,O=Android,C=US"
2) I have created a folder named "add-ons" in "C:\Program Files\GLBasic\Compiler\platform\android\android-sdk-windows\"
Thanks MrTAToad and mentalthink. :booze:

notice the next in the above output:
[javac] C:\Users\JonasPM\Documents\GLBasic\DitraFall\distribute\Android\src\com\glbasic\test\SDLActivity.java:17: warning: [deprecation] AbsoluteLayout in android.widget has been deprecated
[javac] import android.widget.AbsoluteLayout;

Google has decided that, in a future revision of the Android API, it will remove the AbsoluteLayout class. Until then, it has marked it as "deprecated" which ensures that it will still operate, but they intend to delete at a later date.
It's only a warning and can safely be ignored. GLB V11 beta removes the need for this code so will be fixed in a future release (if you are using the beta then you can simply remove the import line from SDLActivity.java).
thank you for explaining fivesprites!
