BLE extension version

[Jacques Dumarest]

 Hello,

 I want to use App Inventor BLE extension, but when I import the extension (from: http://appinventor.mit.edu/extensions/) the version I get is the old one, not in line with the documentation at: http://iot.appinventor.mit.edu/#/bluetoothle/bluetoothleintro

 Could you let me know where I can get the latest BLE extension to import/upgrade mine

 Thanks

Hi Jacques,

The link on the extensions page points to the version on the IOT site, so double check that you are uploading the right version of the extension. The filename is edu.mit.appinventor.ble.aix when you download it.

 Hi Evan,

Thanks for your feedback.

-  If I import BLE extension from: http://appinventor.mit.edu/extensions/ in a new project, I get the new version, but twhen I click on "?", I get: "Version 2"

- I got an example, and with it I get Version "20170818" ?

 See attached screenshot

 How can I check the version of the extension?

 Thanks & Best Regards,

 Jacques

Hi Jacques,

Version 2 is the officially published version. Apps with the newer version numbers are beta versions with various bugfixes that have been disseminated to developers. All future BLE releases will be versioned using the YYYYMMDD scheme you see for the newer version of the extension.

Evan

Hi Evan...

I have a knowed problem (Failed resolution of: Lcom/google/common/collect/Lists;). In this case, I'm trying to conect by BLE with a Sbrick.

In simulation mode, all run OK. But with the APK, when starting the block "make a list" then the app broken. And appears the warning.

Do you have any solution of this issue?

Thanks.
