App Inventor True Offline ( App Inventor Personal Server )

Setelah beberapa waktu kita mengenal App Inventor versi offline, sekarang ada versi App Inventor true offline. Perbedaan dari keduanya secara singkat padat dan jelas adalah untuk yang versi offline apabila ingin mengcompile alias mempaket aplikasi maka masih harus terkoneksi internet.

Sedangkan dengan menggunakan App inventor true offline, maka tanpa terkoneksi ke internetpun kita bisa membuat aplikasi android secara mandiri sekaligus bisa mempaket atau mengcompile-nya langsung. Itulah sebabnya disebut juga App Inventor Personal Server, karena sudah include server compilernya, benar-benar sangat menyenangkan buat yang ingin belajar App Inventor tetapi terhambat dengan koneksi internetnya, dan pastinya lebih cepet dari yg versi onlinenya di Beta App Inventor.

App Inventor true offline ini dipackage oleh Gary Frederick ( Jefferson Software) dari source yang di rilis oleh MIT. Disini kita akan memakai versi windows, masih versi test tetapi sudah bagus dan sebanding dengan versi online-nya. OK sekarang waktunya untuk mencobanya :

1. Download file Personal.zip dari http://sourceforge.net/projects/ai4a-configs/files/Personal%20server/

2. Menurut keterangan sudah di test pada Windows 7,

3. Saat dicoba pada Windows XP SP3 dengan JDK 1.6, Block Editor tidak bisa terkoneksi ke Emulator. Dan ketika memakai Java JDK 1.7 bisa lancar, jadi pastikan apabila tidak bisa lancar menggunakan java JDK 1.6 maka pakailah Java JDK 1.7 download dari http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1637583.html

4. Install terlebih dulu JDK 1.7

5. Ekstrak file Personal.zip , bebas di tempatkan difolder mana, maka kita akan mendapatkan empat (4) buah folder yaitu :

a. appengine-java-sdk-1.6.4

b. AppInventor

c. BuildServer

d. java

6. Untuk mencobanya, jalankan BuildServer AppInventor terlebih dulu, yaitu klik duakali pada Personal\BuildServer\launch-buildserver.cmd Sehingga akan muncul jendela command line, tunggu hingga selesai

7.Jalankan Sever AppInventor, yaitu dari folder AppInventor klik duakali pada Personal\AppInventor\startAI.cmd , ini juga akan membuka jendela command line

8. Buka browser, dan masukkan alamat localhost:8888 , maka akan terbuka jendela desainer dan kita sudah bisa memulai membuat aplikasi android dengan App Inventor.

9. Alamat lain yang bisa dicoba adalah halaman admin yaitu pada localhost:8888/_ah/admin , silahkan diexplore halaman admin ini.

Diskusi mengenai App Inventor True Offline atau App Inventor PersonalServer ada di https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!forum/usgsuacwai,silahkan bergabung disana untuk mendapatkan update informasi, berbagi informasi ataupun bertanya tentang App Inventor.

Well ... perkembangan terjadi di App Inventor sampai saat ini seperti yang diharapkan, tinggal kreatifitas kita saja untuk menggunakannya, and remember this still test version, use at your own risk :) . Dan untuk versi online masih tetap di Beta App Inventor

Thanks Garry

Andy Rubin Shows Off Android 3.0 On Prototype Motorola Tablet

Devin Coldewey 8 hours ago Andy Rubin is, as I type this, in the middle of a demo of Android 3.0 (AKA Honeycomb) at Dive Into Mobile. The rest of his talk I’ve got written up elsewhere, but this was too cool to pass up. The software is running on a prototype MOTOPAD that looks really slick, though it was only out for a moment and there are but few pictures at the moment. I’ll be updating this post as more information breaks. First thing he showed off was a new lock screen and then what appeared to be a brand new “desktop” with widgets and buttons in the corners. Different UI aesthetic than earlier versions of Android. He then launched the new, 3D-and-vector-based version of Google Maps that should be coming to your phone in just a couple days. Honeycomb will be out “next year,” which is a pretty vague deadline, but if I remember correctly, we’ve heard Q2 for the Moto tablet. Another improvement he notes is the ability to spli...

Huawei's Low-cost IDEOS Android Phone Coming

Huawei may be a name not too popular with many, but the company has its presence in devices that you may be using. Like your Tata Photon+ or a similar USB 3G dongle is mostly made by them. But now, the Chinese giant is waving its flag big-time with three Android phone launches in the country one after the other. The first one will be launched this month in the under Rs. 10k bracket - the IDEOS U8150; as Indian Android enthusiast blog Androidos.in reports . It is expected to be priced at under Rs. 8,000 but does not miss out on key features that we really care for - like a 2.8 inch (that's not it), QVGA (nope, no excitement there), "Capacitive" (YES, that's the one) touch-screen. The second sixer the IDEOS U8150 strikes is Android 2.2 (Froyo) at launch, while competing models like the Samsung Galaxy 5 i5500 or even the Micromax Andro still run Android 2.1 with no confidence that they'll ever get updated to 2.2. A worrisome part about this phone is t...
