Hello,

I’m currently building a Mobione application.

It was running fine previously, but there were some updates to be made in mobifiles.
These updates were made at some other machine and later on the updated mobifiles were integrated with current working project.

After integration, we faced following issues:

1. Even after changing UI from design center, it isn’t reflected on simulator.
2. It asks for regenration of HTML/CSS files, which we denied, as we made manual changes to them.
3. When we regenerated the HTML/CSS files, the UI change got reflected in simulator, but other screens got blank.
4. We tried adding out HTML file content again in the project, but then UI got back to previous one, with no changes.

We need HTML file, as we have made many changes from there, we can’t regenerate it.
Please help us using updated mobifiles with existing Project structure.

Thanks in advance.

Hi pratiti,

We have always recommended that developers fully complete their UI design before they begin modifying generated code. The MobiOne code-generate is not able to merge external changes to files it generates when a design file is updated. Thus if you begin modifying or merging generated files you’ll need to manage the code directly thereafter. The generated www/ code is a standard html webapp structure. If you are experiencing problems with loading of your changes it is most probably and error in your customizations.

It’s impossible to determine what exact cause is without seeing all of the project code. The first thing to do is look at the html file(s) that make up your project and determine if they contain the UI elements you expect. If not then somewhere you code merge was goofed up or the code generator overwrote your files.
