Android Module Wizard

[osvaldotcf]

Gentlemen, anyone could look at this ? The use of Lazarus Android Module Wizard components on Linux, Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit

https://github.com/jmpessoa/lazandroidmodulewizard/issues/1

The steps are correct ?

[xinyiman]

Hello guys, I want to prepare a virtual machine (linux) with everything already installed. I want to know the right steps to do

1. Install the Java JDK
2. Install Android-study
3. Install ndk
4. Install Lazarus
5. Install the compiler arm-android (which guide I follow?)

What else?

2 -> Install Android sdk, anything else but the sdk is useless for development with this package
5 -> any guide that can help you create arm-android cross compiler, the Android wiki article should have the pointer
what else -> clone and install the package

Hello, I created a virtual machine with linux installed on top of everything. Now I would like to understand how to create a new project without using eclipse. Can you?

[jmpessoa]

Hi xinyiman,

Yes, you can....

Just Select to Ant project!

[ps]

Very nice work, but it's realy hard to get working setup. Now I'm done. Here are some hints:

• BackgroundColor is TARGBColorBridge ... why?    I need custom colors.
• FontColor - same as BackgroundColor
• jHTTPClient - Basic Authentication missing, and POST (for RESTful access)
• jWebView - Basic Authentication missing

[jmpessoa]

Hi Ps,


1.

Code: [Select]

..but it's realy hard to get working setup. ...
Can you help here! What about a new  "Get Start!" tutorial? Help me!

2 and 3.

Code: [Select]

...BackgroundColor is TARGBColorBridge ... why?  :o  I need custom colors..
I do not understand .... any sugestion?

4 and 5. [jHTTPClient, jWebView]

Ok, I'll try to improve its....

Thank you!

[ps]

Can you help here! What about a new  "Get Start!" tutorial? Help me!

I can look at this.

And for colors, I need do this:

Code: [Select]

jTextView1.BackgroundColor := $FF2C2F3E;
For testing I created code like this and it's working:

Code: [Select]

....
   procedure SetBackColor (Value: DWord);
...
    property BackgroundColor     : TARGBColorBridge read FColor     write SetColor;
    property BackColor: DWord read FBackColor Write SetBackColor;       

...


procedure jTextView.SetBackColor(Value: DWord);
begin
  FBackColor:= Value;
  if (FInitialized = True) and (FBackColor <> $00000000)  then
    View_SetBackGroundColor(FjEnv, FjObject , Value);
end;

Hello

Thank you for Your work.

I have made a small calculator for my purpose.
Working time about 2 weeks  with studying and drawing.

Project properties
ANT
SDK tool Built 21.1.2
NDK 10C
Android 14
Target Android-17

I can give you the link on the result of me work if you are interested in it.

There were some difficulties.
I have some suggestions about the future versions, if it is possible to produce.
Sorry for non-professional description of the problems and advice. I am a chemist.

1. Failed to delete <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE"/>. The app crashes.


2. For displaying  data from database and SQL queries used spinner

- spinner does not show more than 80-100 items (depends on number of characters), the app crashes;
- does not «count», and almost all properties and procedures  «item».
-  need the event   “onclick”  without selection;
- need «fontsize»;

3. «Jedittext»
- need the property «readonly» type;
- need an event type «onexit»;
- if форm 8 “Jedittext” with “maxtextlengh =300”, the app crashes;

4. Form.
- if create a form with “actRecyclable” or “actSplash” from form with “actRecyclable” or “actSplash” (3 form), does not work «backbutton» in the first form with “actMain”;
- Could not make FreeAndNill to form with «actRecyclable» or «actsplash».

5. The problem with string concatenation.
- this code does not work

var
A:real;
.....
stringlist:=tstringlist.Create;
stringlist.Add(A = '++floattostrf(A,ffFixed,10,2));
stringlist.free

it works

var
string_add:string;
.....
stringlist:=tstringlist.Create;
string_add:='A =';
string_add:= string_add +floattostrf(A,ffFixed,10,2);
stringlist.Add(string_add)
stringlist.free;

Hi rx3!

...I can give you the link on the result of me work if you are interested in it....

Yes, I am interested! We can put it as "demo" ....

Ok, I will try fix and implement your suggestions!

Thank you!

[rx3.fireproof]

Ok

The result here  https://yadi.sk/d/MozLnxSpeieyu
 

If you need the source for the demo, I will remove the math and will send the source via e-mail (e-mail?)
Code not a professional, I'm not a programmer.
To put or not to put you to decide
