Android .apk file

[bohmgyorgy1990]

Hy Mates!

I am newbie here. I made a standalone applicaton (for android) with LiveCode 6.5.2. Commercial Edition, i can test on my devices and etc. everything is fine.
But, how can i get the .apk file from LiveCode, because i would like to send to someone for testing. Can me explain anyone, what i have to do to get the apk file.

Kind regards,
George

George, in your standalone application settings under "Android" if you make sure you choose Signing -> Sign for development only. Then when you "Save as Standalone application ..." this should hopefully build your .apk file. Then you can send this file to your testers via email/Dropbox/upload to a server for download, etc.

Hi George,

If you have not done so, you will also have to set up LiveCode for Android Deployment. The following is a video tutorial which takes you through this set up step-by-step

Remember:

Java JDk 1.7 messes signing process, so you have to declare the old signing method.
So use don't sign option in Livecode standalone option, and sign the app yourself with:

Code: Select all

jarsigner.exe -sigalg MD5withRSA -digestalg SHA1 -verbose -keystore myKey.keystore myApp.apk myalias

Jarsigner is in JDK/bin/ folder.

When i choose "Save as Standalone application ...", i get an empty folder. I use jdk 1.6 and in my standalone application settinges i choosed sign for developtment only. What could be the problem?
