XDK April 14, 2015 Release Announcement

[John_H_Intel2]

Note: Our automatic updater will notify existing Intel XDK users when the update is available within the Intel XDK. The updates will be released to all users within 24 hours. If you would like the update sooner, download it from intel.xdk.com.
 

Issues Addressed:

• Corrected the issue with intel.xdk plugins where if you selected the Emulator after selecting to include a plugin, the plugin was marked as "disabled" in the project.xdk file and thus was not included in the test or build uploads. In order for the plugins to work, you had to again deselect/select the plugin.
• Corrected and issue where sometimes 3rd party plugins were not getting included in the built application.
• Corrected an issue where if you selected the "Standard Cordova Plugins" check box (to select/deselect all Cordova plugins) then quickly selected/deselected individual plugins the list and build packages could get out of sync.
• Corrected an issue where if a HTML5 project is upgraded to a HTML5 + Cordova project in project tab, the Emulator would report that the index.html file could not be found.
• Corrected an issue on the Mac version which would present you with dialog when starting the Intel XDK on a Apple OS X system.

For a complete list of features added and issues addressed, please see the official release notes and Joe's blog.

thanks for the excellent work tool.

[Hamilton_Tenório_da_]

Great job. Thanks for all team.

First issue: I think that fix applied on previus version, about ID at Windows build was lost.

I tried to build the same app and I received this error (on log): 

The value '9HTSInformtica.painelpraticmini' is invalid according to its datatype

I need to use . (dot) at APP ID to be accepted on Windows Store.

[Samuel_K_]

the app preview (in Local Apps)  returned to work

[John_H_Intel2]

Where are you getting this message, the XDK or when you try to submit to the store?

[Hamilton_Tenório_da_]

@John> This error is showed at Windows build (log).

[John_H_Intel2]

I was able to build Cordova windows 8 using 

9HTSInformtica.painelpraticmini

as the appID

Can you post a screenshot of the error?

[Hamilton_Tenório_da_]

Sure. The screen is this:

And in the log (the complete file is attached):

Building the projects in this solution one at a time. To enable parallel build, please add the "/m" switch.

[Ryan_F_Intel1]

A fix has been put in place.  Please try again.

[Hamilton_Tenório_da_]

@Ryan> Great! The Windows build works now. Thank you.

[Samuel_K_]

is there any prediction for insertion of the Framework Onsen UI? -

http: //onsen.io/

[John_H_Intel2]

No prediction available. We do not add every framework to the XDK. 

[PaulF_IntelCorp]

You can use that framework manually, you are not required to use App Designer to create your UI. Simply create a blank Cordova+HTML5 app and build the app using your editor or the built-in Brackets editor. Download the JS files you need and include them in your project. Reference the JS libraries locally, not via a CDN on the net.

Hello,

Thanks!

[John_H_Intel2]

Do you get this when you press Build on a platform (which platform?) and then press 'upload project' ?

Can you post a screen capture of the error?

Is this for all projects, or just 1? Which one?

[Adam_L_1]

It is whan I click every "Upload project" in test and build tab.

[John_H_Intel2]

I assume you are connected to the internet?

Is something (firewall/proxy) blocking the XDK?

Has it ever worked on this machine for you?

What version of the XDK are you running?

Where the path to the app you are working with? local drive?

[PaulF_IntelCorp]

There's something odd about the ENOENT error line (which means "file or directory not found" error). The error message is reporting two directory paths as if they were one:

Error: ENOENT, open 'c:\Users\Mateusz\AppData\Local\Temp;C:\Python27\xdk-3028q3vidls.zip'

Note the semi-colon ';' in the midst of the path. I'll ask engineering if this makes sense.

I was just helping someone else who had what smells to me like a similar problem. See this comment and see if it applies to your situation: https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/topic/551272#comment-1823263

[PaulF_IntelCorp]

Engineering did a little test and it looks like perhaps your TEMP environment variable is bad.

Here's an example of a zip file that was created when building a test project:
file:///c:/Users/<userid>/AppData/Local/Temp/xdk-8468fjts2mo.zip

Is it possible that your TEMP environment variable looks like this:
c:\Users\Mateusz\AppData\Local\Temp;C:\Python27

You can display your TEMP environment variable by typing the following at a DOS prompt:
> echo %TEMP%

What do you see when you inspect your TEMP environment variable?

[Adam_L_1]

echo %TEMP%
C:\Users\Mateusz\AppData\Local\Temp;C:\Python27


I remove ";C:\Python27" and it's working now. Thank you!
