hello, you need to run CompileAll.bat (https://github.com/MagicFoundation/Alcinoe/blob/master/CompileAll.bat)

[DiamatBR]

mine gave the following error

[Zeus64]

ouch something look very bad, could you add here all your alcinoe-master directory ?

[DiamatBR]

I was trying to use version 1.00 and it didn't work.
When I download version 1.04... I add it to the list of libraries... I open the source and try to compile it to be able to use VideoPlayer, I get this error:

[DiamatBR]

ouch something look very bad, could you add here all your alcinoe-master directory ?

Where do you want me to add it? In the project? Or on Github?

[Zeus64]

Ok, regarding the last error it's because you need Alexandria 11.3, it's seam you have alexandria 11.2

[DiamatBR]

Estou usando o Delphi 10.4 CE. Do you have any tips to resolve this?

[Zeus64]

you can use chatGPT if you are not very well in english :) you need the last delphi Alexandria version 11.3 CE

[DiamatBR]

Hi! What I did was the following:

1- Install Delphi 11 CE
2- Download Alcinoe
3- I unpacked
4- Build all projects in the Tools folder
5- In Delphi Tools > Option > Language > Delphi > Library > Platform Android 32 bits > Library path
Add: "C:\Users\DiamatBR\Desktop\Desenvolvimento\Delphi\Componentes\Alcinoe-master\Source"
6- Run CompileAll.bat
-type "1"
-typed "Y"
-waited to finish
7- Run CompileJar.bat
8- Open AlcinoeAlexandria in Delphi:
-right-clicked on the project and ordered install AlcinoeAlexandria.bpl
7- Created a new application:
-put a TALVideoPlayerSurface:
-select Android 32-bit
-had it run in debug mode, and...

ERROR
"Exception class EJNI with message 'Java typer JExoPlayer_Builder could nor be found'. Process RP_InDoorVideoAndro.apk (5692)"

[Zeus64]

that normal, it's because you need to add the exoplayer JAR libraries.
have a look at this demo: https://github.com/MagicFoundation/Alcinoe/tree/master/Demos/ALFmxControls/_Source

and especially this batch : https://github.com/MagicFoundation/Alcinoe/blob/master/Demos/ALFmxControls/_Source/android/MergeLibraries.bat

[DiamatBR]

I believe that even after taking a look at ALFmxControls I could not evolve in that. I don't think it works in delphi 11 CE

[Zeus64]

yes i think delphi 11 CE is base on 11.0 not on 11.3 :(

[DiamatBR]

So I won't be able to use Alcinoe :'(
I have Delphi 10.4 CE

Thank you DiamatBR for posting the steps for installing Alcinoe. At least now I can see the Alcinoe components on the Delphi Palette. I have Delphi 11.3.1 and I compiled an app for Android 64 with a TALVideoPlayerSurface component, but the app hangs in the splash screen.

[campbell-gary]

When I place a TALMemo component on a form and compile for Android64, the app hangs on the splash screen. When I compile with the debugger I get the following error messages:

• Project MemoTest.apk raised exception class Segmentation fault (11)
• Source file not found: ZygoteInit.java

[Zeus64]

@campbell-gary can you try to run this demo: https://github.com/MagicFoundation/Alcinoe/tree/master/Demos/ALFmxControls/_Source ?

[campbell-gary]

Fantastic. The demo ALFmxControls compiled and ran on my phone without any problem using the Android64 platform. What changes do you recommend I make?

[Zeus64]

you must do something similar than this on your app : https://github.com/MagicFoundation/Alcinoe/blob/master/Demos/ALFmxControls/_Source/android/MergeLibraries.bat

[campbell-gary]

I opened the MergeLibraries.bat on my laptop but it was missing the assignment statements "set Libraries=", so I copied them and added them to my MergeLibraries.bat. I compiled a test app using the Android64, platform, but the app still hangs on the splash screen.

Messages received:

• Project Memotest.apk raised exception class Segmentation fault (11)
• A messagebox displays: Source file not found - Path to source file ZygoteInit.java

Your FMX ALFmxControls compile and run fine.
