appverse-archive / appverse-mobile Goto Github PK

I am trying to generate an android package from AppverseTwitter_Eclipse so I can run it in my virtual device. However, the project does not compile.

Having run "android update project -p ." which generated the build.xml and having an AndroidManifest in the main dir and in bin (?normal?)

ant clean debug gives me some UTF-8/missing jar/deprecated issue:

BUILD FAILED
/Users/pieterdb/Development/android-sdk/tools/ant/build.xml:710: The following error occurred while executing this line:

Is it possible to give me access to the wiki.
I've just deployed a sample app to the Android emulator using the ant tasks and I'd like to document the steps for future users.
Seems more appropriate than opening tickets.

appverse-mobile consists of several project.
Do a Git checkout.

The README is useful to understanding project structure

• install Android Toolkit
• bind the android executable to the path so it can run from anywhere in command line : export PATH=$PATH://android-sdk/tools
• compile appverse-core with ant (find . -name build.xml)
• compile appverse-platform-android with ant (find . -name build.xml)

This will generate jar files under ./lib and ./dist

• copy ./appverse-core/dist/UnityCoreJava.jar
  ./appverse-platform-android/lib/AppverseCoreJava.jar

to ./appverse-runtime-android/libs/

• in appverse-runtime-android : run "android update project -p ."
  this will link the ant build.xml file to the Android SDK build file via $sdk.dir

now typing ANT will load the Android build

several options available:

ant clean debug release install
android list avd (android opens Android SDK Manager and one can create a target virtual device)
