source and .mc (may be jungles)

I don't know if this is the proper way of doing it, but for example I have a "normal" build and a "plus" build, and I have 2 jungle files setup in my project. Depending on which I want to build I switch between them (+ the manifest file) using the Project > Properties > Connect IQ menu:

The monkey-normal.jungle file looks like this:

project.manifest = manifest-normal.xml

base.resourcePath = $(base.resourcePath);resources-normal

base.excludeAnnotations = exclude;m1plus

And the monkey-plus.jungle file looks like this:

project.manifest = manifest-plus.xml

base.resourcePath = $(base.resourcePath);resources-plus

base.excludeAnnotations = exclude;m1normal

These also cause each build to use different resource directories too for some things.

In the source code you can then use annotations to include different functions for each build, by doing something like this (the monkey-normal.jungle excludes m1plus code, and vice versa):

(:m1normal)
function propertiesSetColor(p, v)
{
	applicationProperties.setValue(p, v);
}

(:m1plus)
function propertiesSetColor(p, v)
{
	applicationProperties.setValue(p, (v>=0) ? v.toString() : "");
}

Hi, does the exclude works for. Xml ? Like settings, if I want add more colors for exemple ? 

I don't think you can use the "exclude" system.

But in my setup above, the monkey-normal and monkey-plus jungle files specify extra resource directories where you can have different settings & properties files for the two different versions.

So in my resources directory I have: drawables, fonts, jsonData subdirectories (no settings or strings)

Then in resources-normal directory I have: settings and strings subdirectories (with settings/properties.xml, settings/settings.xml and strings/strings.xml)

And resources-plus directory also has: settings and strings subdirectories (with almost exactly the same xml file contents but some changes as required).

OK many thanks, I get it, I mean I think I get it... 

Is it possible to do what you ve done but only for 1 xml file ? Thé setting one, the only one where I will add may be 6 or 8 lines ? 

ok so, new questions (sorry I don't get very well Jungles...)

so If I understand well, lets say I have this:

+---resources
lI------+---drawables

lI------+---Fonts

lI------+---layouts

lI------+---settings

lI------------II---properties.xml

lI------------II---settings.xml

lI------+---strings

+---resources-fullcolor

lI------+---settings

lI------------II---settings.xml

+---resources-rus

||----II---strings.xml

if in the jungle I put:

fenix6.resourcePath = $(fenix6.resourcePath);resources-fullcolor

Does it will use the xml found in the resources-fullcolor and the others needed in the defaut resources folder?




Other question about Languages, I use the string.xml to check an item and according to that I load the custom font needed in initialize
but I've noticed that it seems to "pre load every font files.
is it possible with jungle to do with language?
if yes, please how?

many thanks
have a great day

Yep I think it should work for just the settings file (or whichever other one you want to change between versions)

I don't know the answer to your question about fenix6.resourcePath and overriding default resource files as I've never tried that method

I don't think font files can get preloaded automatically - I have 30+ different fonts so if they were all loaded they'd never fit! I load different font files depending on user settings using watchUI.loadResource and they only get loaded when loadResource is called.

Currently you cannot use font overrides in language resources.

It is a limitation and a request for this was posted in the forums in the past.

Hi, thanks, I know about that, but my question is even with jungle ?
