  • Right, here's the problem. If I follow your tutorial and install: https://github.com/poiuytrez/AndroidInAppBilling

    I get this when trying to build with XDK...

    Plugin "com.smartmobilesoftware.androidinappbilling" (3.0.2) installed.

    Plugin "cordova-plugin-legacy-whitelist" (1.1.0) installed.

    Plugin "cc.fovea.plugins.inapppurchase" (3.4.1) installed.

    Error: Plugin com.mcm.plugins.androidinappbilling failed to install.

    Which, for over a year now, you've been saying is an XDK issue.

    So, correct me if I'm mistaken in this logic but C2 is telling XDK to add that plugin via the XML and you're saying add the other plugin manually and any time you add the two to an XDK project it won't build them. It seems to me that it's the choice of plugins that C2 is telling XDK to use that's causing the issue.

    I've been ripping export .xml files apart and even adding both manually, XDK will build with either but not both.

  • Actually , no it shouldn't be that way. This is an official plug. It should work as stated, or at least have an official statement why it's currently not working.

    The problem is that he has nothing to tell that he is doing something wrong, or if it's broken.

    The plug has very little documentation, and no official examples.

    This isn't one of those novice expectations like one click deploy, or unlimited ram.

    Thanks Newt. I half expected responses telling me to find another way to do this. Had C2 not been as easy to develop in as it is, I'd have been screaming for a refund weeks ago. I still have hope.

    Ashley did state in one of my older post about this that the Chrome Web Store probably didn't work and that he was going to look into it for the next patch. I posted it along with the other issues as a 'reminder' after the next patch came and went.

    That's as close to anything official that I've gotten.

  • Over 3 months now since my first post on this and I'm no closer to a solution now than I was then. I fully realize that Ashley is the proverbial one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest but, since I'm unable to sell what I've created, I'm still waiting for an answer when I could have been clicking on the upgrade button.

  • So umm... I'm now over 2 months and still have no answer as to whether this is a bug or I'm doing it wrong.

  • Why don't you just use InstallSimple? InstallSimple.com. It's a free installer that packages everything into one .exe file. You give it to your friends, it installs your game, and it has an uninstaller so when they want to chuck it, they don't have to root through their hard drive to do it.

  • Turn your text into a bullet.

  • Saw in the patch notes the update to IAP so I upgraded to r220 beta and tried again.

    • Running on local host - Store found (boggle if I read the iap js correct it's assuming Chrome Web) - Store Listing Failed. In r219 I got Store not found.
    • Exported to Amazon and ran it on their web app tester - Store not found.
    • Exported to Chrome Web and uploaded to the store - Store not found.
    • Google Play - Unchanged. Finds the store, gets the product, does a proper purchase and then comes back with a false 'has product'.

  • Thank you. I'm trying. Been trying to figure this out for over a month now. https://www.scirra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=164992

  • Ashley, could I please get some response to this? I even sent an e-mail to support several days ago with no reply. Not being able to sell my product has stopped all work and makes me really, really regret buying C2. PLEASE.

  • And it's not working as an Amazon moble web app. I've uploaded it to my server, loaded it into the Amazon Mobile Web App tester and I'm getting Store Not Available.

    And apparently store available for google play will return true on start of layout. But store listing may fail several times before it finally comes back true.

    I've tried setting IAP testing to both true and false with the same results.

  • I realize it's the holidays and Ashley and the crew probably aren't around, but I've now been 3 months on a project that was finished in 2 weeks. But I can't sell the thing because I can't get IAP to work. So here I sit, regretting ever buying C2.

    Could I get some answer as to whether this is a bug or if I'm doing something wrong (and what, not obscure guesses.)

  • I've noticed the same thing with my app.

  • Well, it should only take one tick. It's not like I should need to repeat it every tick. Is store available triggers an event. And it's not like you can make 'has product' wait for a response. It has no event to trigger.

    As I said, it's finding the store (Google Play) and getting the listing. Has product is simply coming back false every time.

    I don't get what you're saying. That this all has to be delayed somehow?

    (This is with the product being purchased)

  • Ummm no, why should it be? It's obviously getting the response, at least in Google Play. If I want to know if the app is paid for before I show my menu, it seems pretty logical that I should put it in the startup. And if I'm waiting for listing success it shouldn't matter.

  • Problem Description

    The IAP for Google Play and Chrome Web store and Amazon packaged web app are not working as they should (or as I understand they should). The IAP returns false for 'is store available' in the Chrome Web store and Amazon web app and 'Has Product' is always returning false on Google Play. I've tried with iap testing true and false.

    Attach a Capx

    http://www.datainterlock.com/ConstructBugs/iapTest.capx

    Description of Capx

    Simply attempts to connect to the IAP store and retrieve information and 'has product' status. A button is to allow the product to be purchased and a text object displays the results of the IAP connection.

    .apx was compiled as webview using XDK.

    Observed Result

    Amazon Mobile Web

    • The result for 'is store available' = false.

    Chrome Web Store

    • The result for 'is store available' = false.

    Google Play prior to purchase

    • The result for 'is store available' = true.
    • On store listing success - all the the IAP fields return nothing.
    • Has product returns false.

    Google Play after purchase

    • The result for 'is store available' = true.
    • On store listing success - iap.productName and iap.productPrice will have the correct product name and price. iap.appName and iap.appPrice return nothing.
    • Has product returns false.

    Expected Result

    Amazon store should be available.

    Chrome Web store should be avaialble.

    IAP should return true for hasProduct if the product has been purchased.
