Android Question Share image and text Social Media

[ilan]

hi

i searching for a while on the forum for a solution to share content (image + text) to social media and i have also tried some but cannot find something that is really working.

i just would like to share an image and text to facebook, twitter, WhatsApp, email,..

b4i has a great library that works perfect but i cannot find something similar for b4a.

any suggestions?

it should work on any android version (at least android and up incl. android 8)

thanx

BTW, it doesn't overwrite any old SDK. You can always change to a different SDK.

Can you post a screenshot of Tools - Configure Paths?

If you did you should have get an android.jar from Api 27. This is in the suggested list. Why you are using a v25? Did you installed a v25 too?

I suggest to use the Android.jar from api 27 from the SDK you downloaded with the new SDKManager. Do not use an android.jar from another SDK-Installation (maybe an old one)

in the past i have updated the api with the regular sdk manager with the new b4a sdk manager i did what erel said (installing all recommended updates)
what else do i need to do? i cannot work for 2-3 days. i need to get b4a again running.

It really looks like you did "reuse" an old SDK Folder?

You should start with a NEW Installation using the B4A SdkManager.
Follow the instructions here https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html

DO NOT reuse an old Sdk-Folder.
Create an empty folder and start here. Copy the tools folder from the downloaded zip...
