Thank you Mark , that makes it clear.

Guess i did investigate good enough on the ARM versions.


The arch index is a good idea, somtehing similair is also what i saw
inthe Google explanation on multiple APK's to have a version nr where
the position of the nr identifies what version and for what
architecture it is, like also commonly is used with serial nr's from
tv's for example.

I will create a feature request.

Thanks very much.

Best regards,

Jerry

Perhaps for the older ARMv6 devices we may need 5 versions, but like
you said Google play will push the best APK option for the device. And
yes every APK needs to have a different/higher Version Code. And keep
in check which Version Code you used for which type of APK.

LiveCode only supports Android 4.x and above, and all devices which run 4.x have at the very least an ARMv7 processor - so there isn't any need for a ARMv6 device build anymore (hence why it has been removed in 9.5).

Is it possible as feature, that there can be a checkbox added, so you
can choose to have separate builds instead of one multiple build when
more then 1 build is chosen?

That would be quite a useful thing to have - perhaps a check-box which
'builds separate APKs' on the standalone settings pane. It could also
do something to derive a new versionCode (they all have to be different).
e.g.

    APK-versionCode = S/B-specified-versionCode * 10 + arch-index

   arch-index = 0 (ARMv7), 1 (ARM64), 2 (x86), 3 (x86-64)

That would save having to specify (by hand) several different versionCodes
for each build.

Could you file an enhancement request for such an option, and we can see what
we can do.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
