Hello all,

This is extremely embarrassing. A few years back - with the kind help
of several of you here - I used Androwish to build an apk of my little
Kanji flash card app.

https://www.beezmo.com/geezblog/?p=1842

Newer tablet, higher density display, and I'd like to modify some
fonts and build it again.

Thing is, for the life of me I can't remember how I built it. No
excuse, except that I'm 75 now...

I've dug around in the online documentation, and I'm overwhelmed.

Can someone point me to the simplest way to do this? I mean:
KanjiQuiz.tcl > <one-click Androwish magic> > KanjiQuiz.apk.

Yours in ignorance - thanks and regards,
Bill

Well, it is outdated...
Christian has highly updated AndroWish to work with recent devices with
newer versions.
I suppose, newer build systems are required.
You may look to the androwish.org or ask Maigic-Christian...

Take care,
Harald

Working my way through that step-by-step. Thanks.

Missing the obvious I think. The instructions:

...................................................
Android command line tools for windows

"tools" folder is: sdk-tools-windows-4333796.zip from:
https://developer.android.com/studio

Unzip to c:\android (so we get a folder c:\android\tools)
...................................................

I find and install android studio, but don't see where to download the
named zip file. Looking in SDK tools. Or is it somewhere in the
installed studio?

Sorry to be such a dumb ***. Grateful for any help, but fair warning,
probaly won't be the last time.

Bill

On the exact page, you have the point "Only command line tools".
But they are contained in the studio.

Thake care,

Indeed, it was right there under my elderly nose.

Following your gide (I hope, I've re-read it 100 times...) I run bones
and get all the way to the build. And fail.

"
A problem occurred configuring root project 'AndroWishApp'.
> The SDK directory 'C:\android\AWSDK\C:UsersWilliam D WaddingtonAppDataLocalAndroidSdk' does not exist.
"

That strange path seems to be telling me I've mis-configured things.
An (environment) variable somewhere perhaps.

I had previously installed Android Studio - now uninstalled - and
wonder if there's a config variable left over somewhere. Or more
likely I've just missed something in the suggested configuration.

Look familiar to anyone?

Thanks again,
Bill

not knowing anything about Androwish, but the message looks extremely

It is looking for a directory with THIS name? With twice a 'C:' in it?

That ... AppData ... dir does exist.

Looks like it was created a year ago when I installed Android Studio.

No idea why it's getting concatenated with C:android... and without
the back slashes.

Still suspect some config variable somewher.

Thanks

Ok. And you said Android Studio is now uninstalled. But somehow during
the configuration you initiated it must somehow crept in.
So the next question is: Exactly how did you call 'configure'?
Helmut
PS: Your answer to this question is not for me but for the next person
who chimes in. I am an absolute layman as far as 'configure' is
concerned, so I'm out - and besides: it's bed time for me.

That strangeness - the crufft appended - is in local.properties. No
idea how it got there. Trying a manual edit, just blindly trying
things...

Now I'm in a spot where sdkmanager complains if JAVA is too old,
Gradle complains if it's too new.

I'm clearly not cut out for this :(

Hey all,

I've given up. Just can't deal with the web of dependencies and my
own ignorance.

Thought I'd try the Androwish apk, and just source my code on the
tablet. Androwish can't browse. Looks like Android 12 has everything
so walled off it isn't possible. Rats.

thanks,
Bill

Hi again,

Thought I'd try a reverse approach: start with bones and fix the
errors as they came up.

First was Java. Fixed that. Then it wanted the Android studio
command line tools. Extracted the zip to C:\android\ASSDK. Set
ANDROID_HOME to that path. (could have used a nicer name....)

Now I'm back to a similar garbled path:

"
Starting a Gradle Daemon, 2 incompatible and 1 stopped Daemons could
not be reused, use --status for details

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'AndroWishApp'.
> The SDK directory 'C:\android\AWSDK\C:androidASSDK' does not exist.
"

Contatenating a garbled version of ANDROID_HOME with the Androwish SDK
path.

Really grateful for any suggestions.

Bill
