Hello Ade,

I use Windows 10 everyday to develop and to test all my software, including App Builder. Apache Cordova works fine here of course.

I am thinking if maybe the problem is a non writable directory... I think this is not the problem, but maybe you can try by place your applications in a writable directory. For example, if you have various partitions in your hard disk, then you can try with a folder in a drive different than the Windows is installed.

Hello Ade,

This is so sad. I try again here and it works like expected... Ok. May we need to take some drastic measurements here.

1º Close App Builder if running.

2º Navigate to the folder: C:\Users\[Your Windows user name here]\AppData\Roaming\AppBuilder\Config

3º Delete that folder.

Try now (with a clean program's configuration) with a new application Ade!

Hello romarom,

They works for me like expected. Please, assert you have checked the appropiate Cordova's option (from the app's options dialog) and then the application is saved previously you starts the build task. Maybe you can try with a new application, in order to discard some problem with your current one.

Hello romarom,

You can use the app's file's manager in order to copy and link Javascript and CSS files.

Take a look at the help file here.

Hello Ade,

Please, try with an empty (new) application and tell me what happend. I just test it here and the BAT files generation works as expected: in fact we no need the Android SDK to do this, App Builder do it. I can't remember any change in the current release who can cause this problem Ade, so, delete your app's compiled directory, try with a new application, and tell me if the problem continue or not.

P.S. I use here Windows 10 too, then Windows 10 is not the problem...

Hello,

Wow very quickly developed!! thanks David
if I have other idea,I will tell you.

Thanks tin!

Hello to all,

I publish right now a new AB release which contains a couple of new actions: HistoryBack and HistoryForward, as well a new History app sample. Hope this can be useful for you.

Hello tin,

Yes; maybe such actions can be a good idea! Probably the next release count with them. Thanks for the suggestion!

P.S. Of course, in the meanwhile, you know we can use the "StartJS" and "EndJS" actions in this way:

Hello tin,

Please, update your App Builder's copy. Between other things, I include a new "ConfirmExit" app sample. This application sample uses the app's "BackButton" event in order to confirm the user wanted to exit our application (using that button).

Certainly I found a bug in the "VarIsTrue" action (and others too, more information into the program's history file) and for that reason maybe you get anoying when try to implement the confirmation by yourself.

Please, take a look at the "ConfirmExit" sample and take a look at the app's "BackButton" event and the "ApplicationExitCallback" app's function. Hope this sample can be useful for you and others tin.

P.S. Yes; of course use the "[App.CurrentView]" can be also a good thing here.

Hello tin,

I am also testing this by myself. In the meanwhile, I don't know if what you wanted is the "[App.CurrentView]" variable, which contains the current app's view? Here more app's global variables.

Hello Zeng,

Yes; certainly you can use "\r\n" and probably "\n" along also can works for your desired results.

Hello Zeng,

Thanks for posting and for your interest in my work at App Builder. The characters to be used in Javascript are "\r" for return carriage and "\n" for new line. What is your scenario or, in other words, where you need to use such characters?

Hello tin,

The problem with the second question is that currently App Builder do not provide us the appropiate app's variable in order to prevent the default back button behaviour. The next AB release must allow us access to that variable so we can try to implement the StackOverflow solution but using our own app's BackButton event instead to prepare a handler for that using Javascript.

Hello Tin,

Thanks for posting and for your interest in my work at App Builder.

I test your app builder.It very easy to build mobile app and web app. I use alittle time to learning this app.(Because it easy to use). After I test, I suggest to have 2 action:

1. action back I test in android app like back botton in android (like back in browser)

I use javascript to fix this

history.back()

or

history.go(-1)

What action are you using to show another app's view? If we use the "ReplaceView" action, that certainly override the browser history, which is something we wanted sometimes. But we can also use the "ShowView" action, and, this action put the view into the browser history, then we can use the "back" and "forward" buttons.

2. action to confirm exit app in android (ios you cannot exit)

I want you to take a look at this forum's thread. Even when we can use certain stuff like "navigator.app.exitApp();", the thruth is this stuff is not official documented into the Apache Cordova documentation. I think we need to consider here the behind operating system and their app's live cycle. Interfer in that cycle maybe it's not a good idea at the end.

Anyway I want to prepare a sample for this question. We can do it using Javascript following this StackOverflow thread, however, some changes must be made in App Builder in order to be ready with the "BackButton" app's event. Right now the program does not send the "event" variable here, then we can't "prevent" the default behaviour. I want to change this as quickly as possible Tin.

thanks for developed this IDE.

Thanks you for your kindly words Tin.

Always thanks you Ade! :)
