Android Question B4A & Android L

[aaronk]

Hi,

Noticed that the new version of B4A says that it now supports Android L.

I was using the Android AVD (Android Virtual Device) and using Android L in that (since I don't have a real device that can run Android L) and I was running the old version of B4A (3.80) and it complied fine and my app was running (for what I could see) fine in it.

Just wondering what is so special with the new version of B4A that makes it now compatible with Android L ?

Is it just fixing that missing file error (Zipalign) people have been getting or is B4A compiling the app differently somehow now?

V3.82 fixes the issue with modal dialogs not blocking the code. This completely broke the debugger and also many apps that relied on this feature.

That's a great question @aaronk . I was thinking about asking the same question but never got around to creating the post.

Thanks for the answer @Erel
