Noob question: how can i save my app's package name in a string variable?
Click to expand...

If your Package-Name is "com.myapp"
In MainActivity insert...

B4X: 
Sub Process_Globals

   Dim PName as String : PName = "com.myapp"

End Sub

To use your Variable from Main Activity...

B4X: 
Sub Fill_Label

   myLabel.Text = PName

End Sub

To use your Variable from any other Activity...

B4X: 
Sub Fill_Label

   myLabel.Text = Main.PName

End Sub

Maybe a function like could help:

B4X: 
Sub GetPackageName As String
  Dim r As Reflector
  Return r.GetStaticField("anywheresoftware.b4a.BA", "packageName")
End Sub
It uses the Reflection library.

How has it worked out? I assume you encrypted the string you were comparing against the package name returned.
