Relevant issues with the 1816 version of Intel XDK

[Cristian_C_]

Good morning,

we're experiencing huge problems with version 1816. More in detail:

• Ajax calls don't work anymore
• Even simple HTML anchor tags don't work
• On some Android devices (with 4.3 OS version) the APK won't install at all

These happens both on Windows and OSX. We had to rollback to version 1621, since even unistalling and following your instructions to reinstall 1816 was of no avail. This isn't a big problem. The only downturn is that saturday 14th March we have a demo in a school where we're going to show IntelXDK. We hope to have a fixed version. We're gonna show a demo app we made and how easy it is to develop and deploy with XDK.

Project's generated with earlier version of Intel XDK works good after importing to the 1816 version. I am yet to try new projects from the latest version.

you should add:

asian characters under the UTF-8 are not displayed on the editor.
cordova.js issues on ios 7.0.x

sadly not only the xdk got upgraded to 1816, the server build was also upgraded to match the new stuff on 1816, thus rendering all past projects under the same problems, if u compiled anything before 1816 it will work fine, if u compile it again using 1621 or 1816 the server will build the same app with the same new errors, that's the problem when things are cloud based, instead of local based.

A new release was made available today, 1826, which fixes a variety of bugs. Please download and install that version if you have having XDK crash issues.

Regarding the build servers, they are updated independently of the XDK releases, other than when new features in the XDK require a simultaneous update. Updates and bug fixes to the cloud services generally appear once a week.
