B4A newbie but not totally green....
I created a simple project this morning and saved it to a specific folder... later I changed the package name, now it won't compile, I get this error text :
Compiling code. 0.17
Compiling layouts code. 0.02
Generating R file. 0.31
Compiling generated Java code. Error
javac 1.6.0_32
javac: file not found: src\monotrack01\b4a\main.java
Usage: javac <options> <source files>
use -help for a list of possible options
I figured the name change was the cause so I went looking for the files to manually change them ( B4A does not seem to have that facility and does not have a SAVE AS facility ) but I could not find them in the very folder where B4A does find them. ( folder shows up empty in Windows Explorer... and "hidden files" display is enabled for that folder )
So... questions...
1. What exactly is the item in menu "Project/Package Name"... is it a folder name or a filename ? ( what extension ? ) Or something else ?
2. Why can't I see the files in Windows Explorer but they show up in B4A ?
3. How do I get out of this situation ( other than trashing the project and re-creating it all manually with new names )
I did a 100% cold reboot of the computer and B4A was still able to find the project and load the code... but... "how do it know ?"
Would be nice if the B4A file dialog boxes were allowed to show ALL FILES... they presently are limited only to specific extensions... if the files were visible, they could be renamed ( or copied or deleted ) there with a right click.
