DecSoft (In thread: Compiling Windows EXE)

Hello to all,

Yes; as Samuel said (thanks for your help, Samuel!), the Cordova Electron platform appear the best option, since Apache Cordova (and DecSoft App Builder integrates it too) support the Windows UWP (Universal Windows Platform), however, what we get is not exactly an executable.

Here you can take a look at the documentation of the Cordova Electron platform. There is not too much requirements for this particular platform.

However, I must recognize that, even when I get it working in the past, right now, probably due to some misconfiguration here in my PC, I can't get the executable of the app as expected, due to some NodeJS (or Electron itself...) problems / errors that I must investigate.

By now, I publish a new release of AB which changes the default settings for the Electron platform. If you finally get it working (I hope it), there is know problem that can cause that the app can't work as expected, as you can read here in the Electron FAQs.

What the new relase of AB do is to avoid the usage of NodeJS modules, since, I am not sure right now how to implement the proposed solution in the Electron FAQ. If you want to use NodeJS modules, by now, you can follow that instructions to get it working.

Cordova Electron appear very interesting. I want try to solve here the problems that I get right now. Maybe you did not get any problem and can compile the app without problems, asseting that you meet the requirements, just by executing one of the AB provided BAT files or the provided SHELL files for that platform.

Feel free to post here if you find any problem, so we try to help. AB is ready for this platform.

DecSoft (In thread: New App Builder 2020.29)

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2020.29 (11/13/2019)

* Fix a mistake in the Label control, which causes that the Classes cannot be properly set, since AB try to set a "classes" argument for the HTML element, but the right name is "class", not "classes". Thanks Asley for the report!

* Change the default settings for the Cordova Electron Cordova, in order to avoid the usage of the NodeJS modules. Use the NodeJS modules is possible, however, requires another changes in AB that we are not sure right now how to fight. It's possible to solve this (if you want to use NodeJS modules right now) by editing the app "index.html" and adding the stuff related in this article:

DecSoft (In thread: New App Builder 2020.28)

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2020.28 (11/12/2019)

* We are very proud to introduce the first DecSoft App Builder release which has support for thirdparty app plugins. In this new generation of DecSoft App Builder, we want to go ahead, and, the app plugins can be perfectly integrated in the IDE, can offer global stuff (useful methods for the app, for example), and also components / controls, which play in the same league than the "out of the box" controls: can be edited using the controls properties and style inspector, and, of course can have events, ready to be edited in the IDE Javascript code editor, just like any other "out of the box" controls.

Support thirdparty plugins become a hard work, but, we are happy with the final result, and, in fact DecSoft App Builder already incorporates the first plugin, provided by DecSoft, a "SelectEx" control, similar to the "Select" control which is already available, but, including certain useful feature, as you can see in the app plugin's help, which is also integrated in the IDE, as you can see in the new sections of the help Index of contents.

You can get more information about the app plugins in the right help topics too:

https://www.getappbuilderhelp.com/help/en-US/app-plugins.html

https://www.getappbuilderhelp.com/help/en-US/app-plugins-dev.html 

There are lot of internal changes to made the app plugins possible. You can see now, for example, a new tab in the app options form, specially dedicated to the app plugins: you can get information of the plugins from that new app option form tab, as well activate and deactivate plugins, when needed (some of them can be auto-activated by the IDE, for example, if you use an app plugin's control, that plugin become activated, so everything is prepared when compile the app, in order to place the app plugin stuff available).

* Other minor changes, fixes and enhancements has been made also in this release, while we work in the app plugins integration.

DecSoft (In thread: Problem with opening file manager in AB1)

Glad to know, Peter! And, thanks very much for your kindly words. :-)

DecSoft (In thread: Problem with opening file manager in AB1)

It's ok, Peter.

DecSoft (In thread: Problem with opening file manager in AB1)

Hello Peter,

Sorry for the inconveniences. I can't reproduce the error here, so, I am not sure what to say... maybe restart the computer can help? If the problem is always reproducible, may you can provide me a Team Viewer (or Any Desk) access to your computer, so I can take a look.

DecSoft (In thread: New App Builder 2019.50)

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder release, with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:

Note that this new release of DecSoft App Builder refers to the previous generation of DecSoft App Builder, which is still available, only for our customers, in their DecSoft customer area, under the "Releases" tab.


2019.50 (09/11/2019)

* The Event variable of the Menu control are not available in the ItemClick event, as we can expect. This release include the Event variable in the ItemClick event as we can expect.

* Made some changes in the HTML markdown for the Menu control. These changes are made specifically for some issues detected in iOS 13.2.2 and probably other iOS versions. The specific menu items HTML markup in the tested app probably also have part in the issue, however, we decide to change the HTML markdown of the control too, to fit better the new Bootstrap CSS framework.

* Fix a bug in the assigment of the app views events: by a mistake not all the app views events works as expected and this release fix this issue.

* Prepare the currently available Apache Cordova plugins stuff (basically the information that the plugins add into the code editor Quick list) to be translated in the future into another languages.

DecSoft (In thread: Llamar Funciones creadas en appbuilder desde javascript)

Hola Juan,

Lleva razón. Si mira en el "app.js" del ejemplo "AdMob", verá, por ejemplo, que la acción "AdMobShowInterstitial" se traduce en el siguiente JavaScript:


window.App.Plugins.AdMob.call().AdMobShowInterstitial();

DecSoft (In thread: Trying to create apk file)

Hello Peter,

My bad english don't let me to explain what I wanted sometimes. I want to clarify my previous post. What I mean is that we can commonly use Google to search for something like "[Error message here] Apache Cordova". Adding the "magic" Apache Cordova words to the error message, give us the solution a 98% of the times, since Apache Cordova is widely used around the world, and, common problems, have their solutions already published and available.

But, I am saying that this support forum don't work or what? Nope! I am tring to say that we can be working in certain app, and, then, get some Apache Cordova related error, and, probably, we can perform a search like the explained above, so we have a 98% of possibilities to get the right answer, and therefore can continue working in the app as we wanted. That's all. No more, no less. I hope this time I explain better the idea that I want to transmit.

Hola Juan,

Creo que Asley le ha dado la clave, no obstante, revise esta ayuda. Si no consigue exactamente lo que precisa, por favor, no dude en decirlo en este hilo.

P.D. Gracias, Asley, por tu ayuda. :-)

DecSoft (In thread: Trying to create apk file)

Hello Peter,

First of all, read also this help topic of the new generation of AB, which be also used for the previous one. If you have an Android device, you can attach it to your PC and use the "Run" BAT file, instead of the "Release" one: debug in a real device is better,... and not only faster.

About your specific error... first of all, a suggestiong: remember that, in some sense, Apache Cordova is out of the scope of AB (nor AB2), so, we can find around internet for information related with Apache Cordova errors... I am not talking that you can't post here, of course, but, that certainly you can get help faster (and the right one) searching in Google, for example, since Apache Cordova is widely used... to much than AB nor AB2, so it's easy to find the solutions of the errors... that are common errors and are found by many other people.

About the above specific error, are you installed the Java JDK? Maybe you have a Java version installed... but not specifically the Java JDK, which is needed. Start with that, Peter, install the Java JDK. I hope you can do it from this link.

DecSoft (In thread: Send auto message to all phone contact?)

Hello Michael,

For sure we need an Apache Cordova to do that. Here is the official one, but, no more supported by Apache Cordova, even when the documentation said we can continue use the plugin. May you can try this plugin... or try to search some other possible alternative, but, if I am not wrong, this is a task for an Apache Cordova plugin.

I never use such plugin, but, probably you can get the contacts' emails, so you can send emails to it. If you want to use their phone numbers, then you must use another Cordova plugin capable to send SMS to that numbers, so in both cases (emails or SMS) you can include the link that you need in the message body.

DecSoft (In thread: Use SQLite Cordova plugin in AB)

Hello Michael,

In principle, we can use any Apache Cordova plugin in our apps. What an Apache Cordova plugin offer to us is a Javascript API, so, we must refer to the plugin's documentation and samples, and finally use the provided Javascript API to get the things working. There are various sample apps that uses Apache Cordova plugins.

You must start prividing the right plugin's ID in the App -> Cordova -> General -> Custom plugins option, or using the App -> Cordova -> Batch -> After, depending on how the plugin must be installed: commonly the first option (specify the plugin's ID) is enough.

So you can start to try it, Michael, and, if find some specific problem or get stuck in something, ask here for help.

Everybody can read the DecSoft support forum for learning purposes, however only DecSoft customers can post new threads. Purchase one or more licenses of some DecSoft products in order to give this and other benefits.
