App exporting not supported

Hello,

I'm trying to create an .iq file in order to submit it to the app store of Garmin.
But my Eclipse distribution keeps giving errors. I als tried it in Comand Prompt with Program File within "".
Als I downloaded another Java distribution a JDK instead of JRE, but no luck so far....

This error is keep popping up in my console:

Thanks in advance.
  • Our public beta releases have app exporting disabled because we're not yet accepting submissions on the app store built with the 2.2.0-beta. You may still build for a device and side-load the PRG file to a device's /GARMIN/APPS directory if you'd like to perform testing or use your app on hardware (Note that support for the new 2.2.0 features may be limited on hardware until supporting firmware is made available).

    To build an app for distribution on the store, please use the most recent non-beta SKD release, version 2.1.4.
  • please use the most recent non-beta SKD release, version 2.1.4.

    Why is the 2.2.0-beta release the one that is getting pushed to users when they acquire the plugin by following the instructions in the Programmer's Guide? I think most developers would expect that using the documented procedure would get a fully functional development environment, and if you want to test beta stuff you'd have to go out of your way to acquire it.

  • The Beta SDK is a separate download link, so individuals would need to deliberately choose the 2.2.0 beta:

    http://developer.garmin.com/connect-iq/sdk/

    The plug-in is a little bit different since it's not available via direct download. Instead, it's installed within Eclipse, and only one version of the plug-in is available at a time. It may be confusing since the plug-in version numbers aren't directly associated with the SDK releases even though we try to keep them in sync. Regardless, the plug-in is 100% backward compatible with previous SDK releases, so there should be no issue using the 2.2.0 plug-in release with the 2.1.4 SDK release.

    Does that address your concerns?

    I'll have to check. I _swear_ that I created a clean install of Eclipse Neon, then installed the plugin by entering the web address as specified in the Programmer's Guide. I tried to build a distribution last night and it failed with this exact error message.
  • Travis - With Neon (windows) and the 2.2.0 plugin, I was able to build a .iq with the 2.1.4 SDK, and got the error with the 2.2.0 SDK, so it's working correctly for me.

    I don't use the SDK Manager to switch. I use "Window>Preferences>Connect IQ" and set the SDK directory if that's a difference.
  • Well, I think my issue can be chalked up to being user error. I just double-checked that Eclipse install, and it is indeed pointing to my connectiq-sdk-win-2.2.0 folder. Doh!
