B4J Question Libraries Overview

[Guffin]

I'm new to Java and B4J. Is there a list/page somewhere that tells me what the libraries are and what's in them?
For example, there is both jNet and jNetwork. Obviously, they are networking libr And I'd like to try JSCH but I don't know where to find it.

Thanks!

Hi @Guffin you can find all the B4J libraries here.
To find something about a specific subject, please use the Search function provided by the Forum
Using Search you will find reference to standard (i.e. provided by B4J installation) libraries too.

Updates to standard/internal libraries are here.

Another useful tool may be this one.
You may find very useful this one too. And, while at it, don't forget Look4How ,also by @rwblinn

Take a look at the online B4J Library documentation: https://www.b4x.com/b4j/documentation.html
You will find similar documentation for B4A & B4i libraries.

Thanks udg and Widget! Yes, I remember finding the Jsch documentation. How do I get that library into B4J? Is there a tutorial on adding libraries?

Download Klaus's Booklets for B4X. You can find the link to the zip file at the top of this page: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-documentation-booklets.88985/

In the booklet "B4XBasicLanguageV1_2.Pdf" search for "Library" and you will see section 4.8.3 "Load and update a Library". Only standard B4X libraries are put into the B4x Library folder. All 3rd party libraries go into the Additional Libraries folder. The PDF will explain where these directories are located and the 2 files that need to be copied into that library directory. Installing a new library is easy as pie.
