Android Question [ABANDONED] Multiple B4A installations

This is now closed. No further replys needed

Hello

The transition from 12.8 to 13 is quite the task for some of us. Our situation is we have one app on the Playstore that we are currently working on to make it 34 compliant. We have many other apps that are not and never will be on the playstore.

I currently have 12.8 and 13 (beta) installed and was wondering is there a way to have a seperate b4xV5.ini file for each installation. Currently I need to change the config paths when doing work on either 12.8 or 13 as the ini file is stored in C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\Anywhere Software\Basic4android. I noticed in this folder there is a 12.8.0.0 folder and a 13.0.0.0 folder. Would it be possible to put the ini file in there based on the IDE version ?

For 12.8 SDK I have C:\Android 33\ and C:\Java\jdk-11.0.1\bin for javac and C:\Program Files\Anywhere Software\B4A 12.8\ for the IDE of 12.8
For 13.0 SDK I have C:\Android 34\ and C:\Java\jdk-19.0.2\bin for javac and C:\Program Files\Anywhere Software\B4A\ for the IDE of 13.0

Many thanks

Regards

John.

How about this?

B4A / B4J - No installation deployment

There are cases where you cannot run the installer as it needs administrator privileges. It is quite simple to deploy these tools without the installer. Download innoextract: https://constexpr.org/innoextract/ This tool allows you to unpack the installer files. Follow the instructions and...

I think that a BAT script to switch the .ini file between v12 and v13 version would solve your problem (if I have property understood your issue)
