Standard dexer.

Any ideas about what I should do? ( I did set the paths in the IDE) B4A is installed in c:\Program Files\Anywhere Software\Basic4android and I note that the jar file is actually installed in Libraries folder as B4AShared.jar. Is the path case sensitive?. I am on win XP sp2.
Thanks for any assistance

there seems to be a space in path , can you check this

There seems to be an issue on some computers which is related to spaces in B4A path.
I still don't know why it fails on some machines.
Installing Basic4android in a path without spaces will solve it.

Yes, I reinstalled on d:\Basic4Android and all went OK
Thanks
