  • Androwish settings for creating an Android16 app

    From Simon Geard@simon@whiteowl.co.uk to comp.lang.tcl on Wed Mar 18 20:00:00 2026

    After several days and much help from Clause I'd finally managed to
    install a desktop Tk application onto my Samsung Galaxy S9+ running
    Android 16. These were the changes:

    Use Java 11 instead of Java 17

    In AndroidManifest.xml: set minSdkVersion="24" and
    targetSdkVersion="36"

    In project.properties: set target=android-36

    In build.gradle:
    compileSdkVersion 16 <==== Don't change
    defaultConfig {
    minSdkVersion 24
    targetSdkVersion 36
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
    }

    In AndroidManifest.xml: add android:exported="true" to any activity
    with an <intent-filter>

    Hope that helps someone else.

    Simon
