Crosswalk 14 Embedded Now Available

[PaulF_IntelCorp]

You can now build "embedded" Crosswalk 14 apps with the Intel_XDK for Chrome 43 webviews on Android 4.x and higher devices. See Why Use Crosswalk? for why Crosswalk matters on Android devices.

You select Crosswalk 14 by selecting the pulldown in the Build Settings section of the Projects tab. This version is only selectable by using version 2170 or greater of the Intel XDK.

Great news! I will try now.

I am using the XDK version 2170, but the Crosswalk 14 dos not appears yet. Do I need to do anything?

[PaulF_IntelCorp]

You do not need to do anything special. You have to be online, "embedded" needs to be selected and 14 should show up in the list of available Crosswalk build versions, as shown in the picture in the previous post. I just double-checked and I see 14 in my list.

Uhn... not for me.

I am using version 2170 (Windows 8.1) --> see image 1

Options for Crosswalk: only 7, 10, 11, 12 --> see image 2

You may have to exit and restart the XDK, because I believe it only reads the "feed" that supplies those numbers when it starts. If that doesn't work, here's a workaround:

• select "12" in the pulldown
• add the following two lines to your intelxdk.config.additions.xml file

<!-- -Android-Crosswalk --><intelxdk:crosswalk version="12"/>
<!-- +Android-Crosswalk --><intelxdk:crosswalk version="14"/>

That´s it (logout/login). Now the version 14 is present. I´ll test now. Thank you.

@Test -- you're not giving us much to go on. Can you be more explicit about what failed?

My app crash when I press volume buttons.

[PaulF_IntelCorp]

@Hector, can you provide a simple example app that causes this failure and attach it to a post to this thread. Please ZIP the entire project directory.
