I’m sure this is something specific to my project but in the last couple of days my AppStudio ‘Make Native App’ feature is not working. Upon pressing the button to start the process it asks for confirmation then speeds thru some file names in the status box at the bottom left then ends with a “Ready” message in the same status box. The process stops there.
Normally, this would be a 30 second process of “uploading” followed by the Volt Builder Status dialog appearing. However, in this case no error what-so-ever is indicated. The VoltBuilder subscription indicates its active. I tried copying in new API credentials which didn’t change anything. I’m not sure what it could be. Anything I should check or look for?
Important item of note, it is project specific. This one project appears to have the issue. I tested another separate smaller project and it performed the build process with no problems.
I’m going to try rebuilding the project using a new blank project. Which leads me to spot the need for another new feature… a one-click “Export all forms..” option. Or, even better, a ‘Rebuild Project” feature . Also debug log access would be nice, then I could just ‘see’ what the IDE is exiting out on and deal with it myself.
I also noticed the ESInt function returns the following when pressed:
Its possible that it is accurate that a string constant is missing a quote, but where? This is a sizable project with 40+ forms and 300kb of code. It’s definitely not at position “1:1” which I presume would mean the first line, first character.
Re Unterminated string constant: The most likely explanation is that you’re missing a quote sign somewhere. Since it does not know where, it reports 1:1. Start by checking those.
This could very likely be the cause of your VoltBuilder uploading problem as well.
Thank you for identifying where the Log was. I looked everywhere except in the About panel.
In the log it is showing an error for a missing icon which, after replacing the file, all is well now.
Just a thought, perhaps that error log shouldn’t be so silent. A dialog box would have solved this problem. I realize it might be one of those logs where you don’t want it bothering you all the time with non-critical items, if that’s the case, just offer me the option to “Show internal IDE errors” or something in the Options would have worked. I look for these types of options when problems escalate before calling anyone.

On a side note, I rebuilt the project (which also solved the problem byway of the missing files getting replaced)
After rebuilding though, the mentioned ESInt Unterminated string error is still occurring, but I guess my unit testing hasn’t caught that one yet. Not only do I not know where it is, it hasn’t caused any bugs to appear either… another problem for another day.
I had a regular PNG filename specified for one of the icons (512 px icon believe). That particular file was either accidentally deleted during a clean up process of unnecessary graphics files. I’ll dig more into it as soon as I’m back at my office.
