hSuite

Download the zip file from the main page.

The zip file contains everything, i.e adt, jdk and an hsuite directory.

Aside from un-zipping, there is no furthur installation. Everything is self contained and environment variables are made on the fly.

Unzip to a directory of your choice.

Tip:
hSuite is about 100mb with loads of small files inside. So either turn off your virus checker or add
an exclusion zone to c:\mytest. Also, 7-zip is about 10 times faster than window's own unzipper.

Included in hSuite is a test-project that performs a few tests.

Below is a quick run-through on how to make a standalone apk of the test-project.
This assumes you have Windows.

1. Download hSuite windows version if you haven't yet already.

2. Unpack it to somewhere e.g c:\mytest

3. Go into the hsuite dir and run hpatcher.exe

4. Select some patches, and click Apply.

5. Click Customise.

6. Click StandAlone. Then Click Standalone APK.  The standalone fields will open up.

7. Point (main).bas to test-project/source/test.bas

8. type "test" for app_path. click Back.

9. click Permissions. Select the first two, and maybe last the four. Click Back.

10. click Commit

11. click Compile.

12. A test.apk file will be found in c:\mytest\hsuite\work

That's a quick example. There is some stuff you can do in-between, so just explore it in your
own time. It's completely safe, If you get into trouble, you can always delete the whole c:\mytest
and start again.

When you first install hSuite there is a [master] directory.

When you first run hPatcher it checks to see of the [basic] directory exists.
If it does not exist, it copies [master] to [basic]. (this is the same as if you had pressed Reset).
This copy of the master is hBasic in it's base form.

At first installation Customise>StandAlone is by default OFF. This is called Standard mode.
If you now press Compile, You will generate a version of hBasic without any patches.

If you instead select all of the patches and click Apply and then Compile, you will have a version of hBasic that's almost the same as the official release version.
I say 'almost' because the version number and permissions will be different. These can be changed inside the Customise panel.

Customisation for a standard hBasic therefore depends on which patches you select, the version number you enter, the permissions you choose. It is best not to change anything else in the Customise panel.

When you have finished with Customise, click Commit to apply changes and then Compile.
