Kudos!!!
HelpViewer (Installed with a an "ancient" version) is a very helpful tool. It was not updated with new statemets, methods and libraries. Can we get an updated version (It will require a serious update)?

Erel,
seems to have problems in rapid debug with licensing library :
line 195 is : lc.checkAccess

Thx and bravo for this new release

You will not be able to use lc.SetVariableAndValue with the rapid debugger. This method internally uses reflection to update the variable. When you run your code with the rapid debugger the variable is part of the "debugger engine" which runs on the desktop. So the field is not found.

I will add a note about it in the Licensing tutorial.

@boten
Which Help Viewer are you speaking of ?
From Vader or from agraham ?

Best regards.

@boten which one of the tools are you referring to? There are several help tools that read the local XML files. These should work with this version.

Got it thanks , I will check the release , Looks Good, Thanks Earl,

I received my eMail about the new version, but the only links are for THIS forum chain and two ways to purchase.
There is no link for the upgrade?
Where do I go for that, or do I just download the "trial" version and it will automatically unlock?

Thanks

Kerry

Your free upgrades period has probably expired. If you think that it is a mistake then please contact support@basic4ppc.com.

Thanks Erel!

The Spinner.DropDownTextColor is very cool !

p.s.: is there any chance to include the property "Spinner.DropDownBackgroundColor" also ??

Not in v3.00

It is better to start a new thread for this in the wishlist forum.

tks.. I'll do it ..

My viewer works with V3. Check my signature for the link.

Very good job!
The "fix for Android 4.3 back key" means that we don't need to use CallSubDelayed ?

Thank you, Erel.

I'm going to renew my Enterprise license. I haven't found yet a tool as useful, easy-to-use and cheaper as B4A for android developments. I was thinking to adquire a mobile license for my delphi (I have got a delphi XE Professional Pro license) but I have to pay more than 1,000 € , and it's an upgrade license, not a new user license . By the way, I'm not sure they give me as much as B4A gives me.

Again, thanks for B4A and for your support and help in my projects

Thanks Erel for B4a and all that you do.

Hello @Erel.
Thank you for all your hard work, as your hard work makes developing on Android devices easier for us.
Btw, are you plugged directly into the Matrix, do you just see green code scrolling down your monitors

Nice work...

I'm a Delphi user from Delphi 2 up (currently XE2 Enterprise). XE5 with Android support is a release i had long waited for. Three weeks ago i had testet the new release. One source with visual design for Android and iOS. And it works, really.
But it has two drawbacks.
The first: Delphi uses the NDK and creates native code (no java). The created apps doesn't run on all cpu types, only on ARM 7.
The second is a fatal one (imho): Delphi includes the complete FireMonkey Runtime in the apk. Even a simple "Hello world" apk has a size of 4,8 MB. But the apk is compressed and once installed it needs 20 MB.

After this test, i bought B4A
