B4A Library January 2018: The Ultimate Resource for Android Developers


B4A Library January 2018 Additional Programs User Guides




If you are looking for a simple and powerful tool for developing native Android applications, you should check out B4A (Basic4Android). B4A is a RAD (Rapid Application Development) tool that allows you to create apps using a modern version of the BASIC language. You can use B4A to create apps for all Android devices, from Android 1.6 to Android 10.




B4A Library January 2018 Additional Programs User Guides



One of the advantages of using B4A is that it comes with a large set of libraries that extend its functionality and make it easy to access Android features such as GPS, Bluetooth, camera, web services, databases, sensors, NFC and more. You can also use custom Java libraries or create your own libraries with B4J (Basic4Java).


In this article, we will review the B4A Library January 2018 Additional Programs User Guides package, which contains the latest versions of the official libraries as well as some user-contributed libraries and classes. We will also provide some examples of how to use these libraries in your projects.

B4X Libraries Index




If you want to have an overview of all the libraries available for B4A and other B4X products (B4J, B4i and B4R), you can use the B4X Libraries Index. This is an online resource that lists all the libraries by category, name, author, description, link and compatibility. You can also search for specific libraries or keywords using the search box. The index is updated regularly by Erel Uziel, the creator of B4X. You can access it from this link or from this forum thread here .


The index is very useful if you want to find out what libraries are available for your needs or if you want to discover new libraries that can enhance your projects. You can also contribute to the index by submitting your own libraries or suggesting updates or corrections.


PermissionsManager




If you are developing apps for Android 6+ devices, you need to deal with runtime permissions. These are permissions that are requested by your app at runtime instead of at installation time. The user can grant or deny these permissions at any time, so you need to check them before accessing any protected feature or resource. You also need to handle the cases where the user denies or revokes these permissions.


To simplify this process, you can use the PermissionsManager library by Ivica Golubovic. This library provides an easy way to request multiple permissions at once and get callbacks when they are granted or denied. You can also check if a permission is granted or not using a simple method. The library also handles some special cases such as
