Modifications to consider when using the Genero Mobile for Android™.

Note:

This topic describes feature changes in the GMA 5.00 product. See also the Mobile section in Genero BDL 5.00 New Features page.

GMA 5.00 with FGLGWS 5.00

Important:

The GMA version 5.00 is built on FGLGWS 5.00 and therefore, strongly tied to this Genero BDL version.

ANDROID_HOME replaces ANDROID_SDK_ROOT

When building apps with gmabuildtool, the ANDROID_SDK_ROOT environment variable is deprecated.

To define the Android SDK installation directory, use the ANDROID_HOME environment variable instead.

To learn more about the ANDROID_HOME environment variable, go to the Environment variables page on the Android Studio Developer site. To learn more about the gmabuildtool, go to gmabuildtool.
