Launch Native App pluggin doesn't load

Hi all, I've read a couple of older threads about that but no solutions. Despite it's been required when dowloading the BT package, the project doesn't show in Android Studio the pluggin for the Launch Native App from David. Where can I find the associate Jave BT_something file to add in the project ? Cheers ! Nico

That's actually not a 'plugin' so much as it is an 'option' within the main code. If you use it, it sort of 'treats' it like a plugin, but the code is located in BT_fragment.java; do a search for 'BT_launchNativeApp' and it should take you to the right spot in the code... Cheers! -- Smug

You're right ! Still the app says "Missing plugin : The Android class file for this screen was not compiled in the project." Those lines seem correct. Is it linked to something else ? I've played with various type of native app (the one I want initially is a browser) and it is the same always. Cheers Smug

Check the logs... see what the class name of the plugin it's 'looking' for is. Let's make sure things match up. Cheers! -- Smug

Here are the two lines of the log where the problem seems to start. I'm not sure of what it means, but is it not looking for a BT_launchNativeApp somewhere ? itemNickname is correct 10-30 07:03:00.180 15216-15216/com.vocabulairedelamoto W/ZZ: BT_application:initPluginWithScreenData. Creating plugin with JSON itemId: "C6AC26CC08CFC5BCD7A3C82" itemType: "BT_launchNativeApp" itemNickname: "launchsite" 10-30 07:03:00.180 15216-15216/com.vocabulairedelamoto W/ZZ: BT_application:initPluginWithScreenData EXCEPTION creating fragment: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.vocabulairedelamoto.BT_launchNativeApp

The other thing I found is in BT_fragment : if(appToLaunch.equalsIgnoreCase("Browser")){... On the BT screen the option is "Browser, enter a URL". I suppose it gives back a value "Browser" afterwards but just in case I wrote in the BT_fragment "Browser, enter a URL". No effect though.

Well, initially, it determines what to do from a user choice in the control panel. When the user selects a choice and presses 'save', the json key 'appToLaunch' is given a value representing what the user wants to happen... String appToLaunch = BT_strings.getJsonPropertyValue(theScreenData.getJsonObject(), "appToLaunch", ""); then, depending on the value, it does an 'if/then' kind of thingy... if(appToLaunch.equalsIgnoreCase("something")){ // do something } and all of that comes from your control panel json configuration. with the 'launch native app' control panel screen open, take a look at the 'raw json' usually at the bottom of the screen, or look in your applications config file. find the value for 'appToLaunch' and make sure it's represented in the code the same way. Remember, the HTML elements in the control panel can display one thing, but provide a different value. <option name="subscribe" value="0">I never want to hear from you again. EV-VAR</option> You see the text, but not the underlying code. If this choice is selected the key 'subscribe' will be assigned the value of '0'. (And that's a text '0', not an integer 0.) Cheers! -- Smug
