Any chance of better Android Support? (>= 4.1.2 - API 15+)? lazarus / 43-Android ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Logic_Bomb · 2013-02-05 05:39 Hey all, Just wandered if anyone knew of any forth-coming updates to the Android Custom Drawn Interface? It's just that I would love to create applications for Android, but unfortunately (or rather, fortunately) I have just upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE - running Jellybean - 4.1.2 (API 16). Having compiled the example android app I have noticed that it works absolutely fine on API 8 emulated but not on emulated API 16 or on my Galaxy S3. This flaw limits my ability to create apps with Lazarus, something that I would love to do so much and even though apps for API 8 work perfectly well, many people (including myself) are moving away from API 8 as it is getting rather out-dated now and much of the market has moved up to API 15+. So if anyone has any ideas on when this might be rectified, their input(s) would be appreciated. Regards, Logic_ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Leledumbo · 2013-02-05 16:43 I can compile my app for API-8 through API-15 (mine is still ICS), and it works on both emulator and real device (Xperia Mini Pro). Anyway, Android API is largely backward compatible, and since you're using Custom Drawn Interface, that API version won't matter much, as most of the work is not done by Android API. Unless you use functionalities from certain API version. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- zariq · 2013-02-05 16:54 Don't know about api 15 but I have tested api 8 on a galaxy s3 and it works on that. Even if the newer apis didn't work,  there some other issues (it could be just me) that I think are more important and should be dealt with first. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Logic_Bomb · 2013-02-12 17:25 Quote from: Leledumbo on February 05, 2013, 05:43:34 pmI can compile my app for API-8 through API-15 (mine is still ICS), and it works on both emulator and real device (Xperia Mini Pro).

I'm on Linux btw and using the precompiled 2.5.1v3 to build the application.
