Android Question What is the latest recommended way of writing a library?

[Hanz]

Hola,

Need some direction...

I wish to use certain java database drivers(jar) that are not available in b4x. My search showed certain options including javaobject. But I wish to produce a library callable in b4x. There is wrapping the java jar library by coding with java thru eclipse IDE. But there is also the b4xlib which based on what I read produces multi platform--b4a, b4j, b4i--library. Is the b4xlib the recommended way? I saw the latest library which is the web3x and it's made with b4xlib.

Thanks!

If they provide a jdbc driver then you can use it directly with jSQL / JdbcSQL.

98% of the libraries that I've created in the last year or two are b4xlibs, even if they are not cross platform.

It's not jSQL/jdbcSQL, it's rethinkdb and dgraph. Would it be a good direction if I choose b4xlibs over the other options?

It depends on how much java code you need to write.
