Android Question Run external *.bas file?

[ilan]

hi

is there any possibility to make an app and then let it download a class that can be run in my app?
like creating a class (bas file) and the app can download it and after that run it without doing any updates?

thanks

Not a bas file. You can use this library to run a script: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...ide-development-ide-revisited.101419/#content

thanx erel, i will have a look at it. the idea is to create an emulator that can run games created with xui2d and run them on android and ios. so it will have the possibility to download rom files (games) and be able to run them.

do you think this lib can do something like this?

EDIT: the games (roms) will be created of course using b4x.

No. The best you can do is to run JavaScript games inside WebView.

i dont know javascript. i would like to make them in b4j using xui2d.
i remember you have created a lib that can run math operations from a string.
its a "little" bit similar to what i was thinking to do but i understand that it is much more complex. right?

It is written in B4X: [B4X] Eval (expressions evaluator)

A bit like comparing these two

I have never messed with XUI2D yet, Although I should someday.

But it sounds like for what you are trying to accomplish, you need to write your own interpreter language that your software parses and executes to do what you want it to do, as well as being able to load the graphics assets from your file, or another file like a b4xobject.

Think of old school Commodore, Apple, TRS80, etc BASIC here.

The first I can drive it, the second I can't

I can tell you that it is not an impossible undertaking, but simply a ambitious one.

it would take too much time that it would be repaid only by the satisfaction of having succeeded

HA! about 90% of my projects were like that. lol.

yeah, me too.

but i also need to say

because if "EREL" is comparing it like he did then in my level i may compare it like this:
