hi @BeneBarros

i am just trying your class and the GetParshaX function returns "Error"
if i use it on Android emulator it returns the correct parasha but on b4j (pc), b4a (physical device) and b4i (physical device) i always get "Error"

what could be the reason that only on the android emulator it works and not on a physical device?

thanks

Good morning... I'll check

 

[ilan]

so its because jsk-14.0.1 ?

 

[ilan]

according to b4x installation guide we shale use jdk 14

is there any possibility to make it run also on jdk 14?

thank you

 

[BeneBarros]

It's quite possible that it's the special characters that are causing the problem... try using Default Font

just for information.
if i run it on android emulator it is working fine only if it is a physical device it is not working. no change are made. the program runs fine on emulator but not on real device.

[ilan]

is it working for you?

 

[BeneBarros]

is it working for you?

Yes... working without problems.

 

[ilan]

do you have any idea why it is not working for me?
i tested on 2 physical (b4a+b4i) devices and on 2 different pc (b4j)

I can't even imagine.... you would have to test the sources you are using so that you can detect the error.

 

[BeneBarros]

Try uncommenting line 776 Log(nParshaNumber), to see what number it is generating.... It cannot be greater than 64

Strange... in your example the "Today" field is different from "HebtoGreg"

you are right. setting the timezone solves the problem.
i am running your example but i add this line before the DateTime.DateFormat line

MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.SetFormStyle("UNIFIED")
    'MainForm.RootPane.LoadLayout("Layout1") 'Load the layout file.
    MainForm.Title = "Hebrew calendar"
    HG.Initialize
    DateTime.SetTimeZone(3) '<-----
    DateTime.DateFormat = "MM/dd/yyyy"
    Dim dtNow As String = DateTime.Date(DateTime.Now)
    '...'

and now it is working fine

in the hebcal class i add the settimeone in the initialize event and it is working fine

'Initializes the object. You can add parameters to this method if needed.
Public Sub Initialize
    DateTime.SetTimeZone(DateTime.TimeZoneOffset) '<---
    DateTime.DateFormat = "MM/dd/yyyy"
    '1488 +
