LAMW problems

[zorfox]

I'm having problems with building android projects. Sorry for my ignorance when it comes to this. I'm an FPC newbie.

 I'm using the following,

Lazarus 1.4.4 r49931 FPC 3.0.0 i386-win32-win32/win64
LAMW downloaded from here, https://github.com/jmpessoa/lazandroidmodulewizard/archive/master.zip
Android-ndk-r10e
Android sdk
Apache-ant-1.9.6

First, when attempting to create an onClick event (by double clicking a button in the design view) I receive an error.

"TDefaultComponentEditor has created the error:
Unable to find method...

androidwidget.pas(15,51) Error: unit not found: CustApp

If I restart the IDE this error disappears. No big deal really it's just odd.

The biggest problem I have is dealing with paths and include files. I dropped a listview, dbf and a button on a form. I set the dbf to a table and set the button onclick event to display data in the listview. When I try and build the application I get multiple "Cannot find unit XYZ" errors. The IDE finds the units but the compiler does not so I assume it's a problem with the FPC.cfg file.

Adding a path in the project options does nothing. Btw, when adding C:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\gtk2\src\gtk+\gtk in the project options it complains about unusual characters. I suppose it's the + sign.

error example...
gtk2cellrenderer.pas(30,3) Fatal: Cannot find unit gtk2 used by Gtk2CellRenderer of package LCL.

If I add a path to the fpc.cfg file they are found. Here is a list of the units not found,

gtk2, glib2, atk, pango, gdk2pixbuf, gdk2, Cairo, xlib, gdk2x, gtk2ext

Here is what I added to the fpc.cfg file.

-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\gtk2\src\gtk+\gtk
-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\gtk2\src\glib\
-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\gtk2\src\atk\
-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\gtk2\src\pango\
-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\gtk2\src\gtk+\gdk-pixbuf\
-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\gtk2\src\gtk+\gdk\
-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\cairo\src\
-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\x11\src\
-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\gtk2\src\gtk2x11\
-FuC:\Android\laz4android\fpc\3.0.0\source\packages\gtk2\src\gtkext\

Is there a way to recursively look in subdirectories rather than entering so many paths?

Now the app will build and install on an emulator. Unfortunately, it stops before it starts.

I attempted to upgrade the code templates for the project to see if this would help. The .java files update fine. The controls.lpr cause an access violation. If I choose to cancel Lazarus finally crashes and needs to be terminated.

Sorry for such a long winded post. I just wanted to give as much information as possible in the event they all are related.

Thanks in advance!

Hello zorfox!

1.

I'm using... Lazarus 1.4.4 r49931 FPC 3.0.0 i386-win32-win32/win64

[yes, you can prepare your own Lazarus to  "cross-compile" ...]

But, please, get "Laz4Android" from here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/laz4android/files/?source=navbar

[EDITED: Ok, you have "Laz4Android!"]

2.

..I dropped a listview, dbf and a button on a form....

Go to IDE menu "Project" -->> "New Project" -->> "JNI Android Module [Lamw GUI]"
to create a cross android project... and, please, use "Android Bridges" and "Android Bridges Extra" components... not listview, dbf and a button, etc..

You can see "readme_get_start.txt" ....

Thanks for the quick reply!

I think I did download the IDE from that link.

http://iweb.dl.sourceforge.net/project/laz4android/laz4android1.4.4-FPC3.0.0.exe

Is this not correct?

As far as the components I was using items from the android bridge. The listview was jListView1 and the button jButton1. Should I not use TDbf? Instead use jSqliteDataAccess from the bridges component palette? I will have to figure out how to use the sqlLite components. Otherwise, I would have tested it already.

Overall, I need to use only components from the android brides?

Yes, but pure "FCL" [not LCL dependent] component  can be used, too... [well, "LCLBase" dependency is ok,  need to get component resource icon...]
