Bug? B4A 10.70 Webview LoadUrl('File') Problem ?

[M-CAP7AIN]

B4A version 10.70 when compiled project in Release , webview load file problem :

 WV.LoadUrl("file:///android_asset/asset/"&FILE_NAME)

The webpage at file:///android_asset/asset/file.html could not be loaded because: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

but B4A version 10.20 work correctly.

Have you tried using something like this (From memory and NOT tested) XUI.FileUri(Dir, FileName)???

WV.LoadUrl (XUI.FileUri(Dir, FileName))

Please note that I could be completely wrong with this answer, but it seems to ring a bell with me.

It is related to the way the underlying packaging tool handles sub folders inside the assets folder.

This will work in release mode:

WV.LoadUrl(XUI.FileURI(File.DirAssets, "asset\"&FILE_NAME))

If the html file references other files then the references will need to be updated. Best solution is to flatten the folders and put the files in the Files tab directly.

i tested different methods. need urlEncode with

%5C -> \

WV.LoadUrl(XUI.FileURI(File.DirAssets, asset\"&FILE_NAME))

The html file was loaded but the resources in the file were not loaded.
