It turns out that string array writing was never implemented. I added that now Thanks, Ville! It works perfectly. Not sure why you'd want to use "char" encoding for a paint program Yeah, I started from the FileDemo and got a bit lost in the loops trying to detect the letter A :lol: Thanks...

* Little sidequest * In order to test the read/save file behavior on Android, I started making a modification of the FileDemo to turn it into some paint program. It reads the TestFile.txt at loading, but I don't know how to save the drawing to that file once it has been modified. Can't we save plai...

Hahaha, it's not that simple :lol: After verification, this works nicely to obtain /data/user/0/com.mydomain.filedemo/files/TestFile.txt: String dataPath = context.getFilesDir().getAbsolutePath() + "/"; This is for /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.mydomain.filedemo/files/TestFile.txt: ...

Here's the usage for internal path (config file...): https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/app-specific#internal File file = new File(context.getFilesDir(), filename); And the same for external path (editable file...): https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/app-specific#ex...

So I think it is set in zgameeditor-master\Build\android\ZgeAndroid.pas: procedure Java_org_zgameeditor_Zge_NativeInit( env : PJNIEnv; thiz : jobject; ExtPath : jstring; DataPath : jstring; LibraryPath : jstring);cdecl; var P : PAnsiChar; begin P := env^.GetStringUTFChars(Env,ExtPath,nil); GetMem(An...

There's still one little problem, as building the APK (debug) from ZGameEditor also creates run.bat, but with the $title$ name on the first line, instead of the $filename$: "C:\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\adb" install -r "C:\Dropbox\System\ZGameEditor\Projects\FileDemo\...

It's one problem after another :lol: So, in order to confirm that my code change regarding ReadAssetFile for Android 64 is working , I'm trying to run the FileDemo on Android. And surprise, it's looking for TestFile.txt in a folder that requires root access: /data/user/0/com.mydomain.filedemo/files/...

Perfect. Thanks!
Now I can continue with the fileDemo on Android

Almost. Now it exports the project name + the file extension: <project name="FileDemo.zgeproj" default="help"> So I think it should be: Lookups.Add('$filename$', ChangeFileExt(ExtractFileName(CurrentFileName), '') ); I hope it will suppress the whole .zproj extension, and not lea...

You wrote this in frmEditor.pas: Section := 'Project: ' + ExtractFileName(CurrentFileName); so I guess CurrentFileName is the complete path and it should be Lookups.Add('$filename$', ExtractFileName(CurrentFileName) ); instead of Lookups.Add('$filename$', CurrentFileName ); ?? I tried to reinstall e...

It wasn't Application.exename

Now I get
<project name="C:\Users\Ats\Desktop\ZGameEditor\ZGameEditor.exe" default="help">

Might be CurrentFileName, then?

I've made the pull request.
It's just frmEditor.pas:
Lookups.Add('$filename$', Application.exename );
and build.xml:
<project name="$filename$" default="help">

can you build a new ZGameEditor.zip?

I was trying to build the FileDemo for Android but got this error: BUILD FAILED C:\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools\ant\build.xml:1135: The following error occurred while executing this line: C:\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools\ant\build.xml:1147: Value for 'output' is not valid. It must resolve t...

I've been trying to test ZPlatform_Android.pas ReadAssetFile on Android, but I'm stuck. ReadAssetFile is specific to Android and is called by Platform_ReadFile. Which is used by ZClasses.pas TZInputStream.CreateFromFile So in the end, I was trying to read an ogg file. And I'm a bit stuck. Is that ho...

I was trying out my modification of ZPlatform_Android.pas Platform_NetOpen , but I wave no way of telling if it's working, because WebOpen's OnResult doesn't seem to trigger. I tested YakYak Reader with both CallVoidMethodV and CallVoidMethodA on 32 and 64 bits sytems, but it's not able to retrieve ...
