[SOLVED] Opening .emb files in MMX4Android

[Baldrick]

Hi Lisheng

Hope that you are well?

Have tried what you suggested above...but unfortunately whilst this provides me with an encrypted version of the database that I can use with the Android version, it means that I have to maintain/update TWO version of the database whereas what I am looking for is to be able to access the single version of the database from either the Desktop and Android versions.

So will have to wait until that is possible...any news of when that might be in terms of priority on the to do list of new features?

Cheers, Baldrick

Hi @Baldrick

The temp target for desktop to support sqlciper/aes256 is v1.7.2
@whall3y @Nikolay , any comment?

Hi Lisheng

Thanks for the update. Appreciated.

I suppose a date for v1.7.2 is out of the question at this point...so will keep in touch and hope.

Hi Lisheng

Just following up on this topic given that v1.8.0 of the desktop version has been release (& updated to)...but I see no change in the encryption method to allow compatibility with the Android version, etc.

Not complaining but rather just wondering if the is an update on the likely inclusion of that (which had been discussed as possibly in v1.7.2 if I recall correctly).

Many thanks in anticipation.

thanks @Baldrick for reminding.

this mismatch was caused by the release naming issue after v1.7.0 (was v1.7.1 while is v1.8.0)

team is still working on this, @whall3y @Nikolay as FYI

hi @Baldrick ,
can you download the binary and have a smoke test?

artifacts from appveyor

Hi Lisheng

Thanks for that. I have downloaded the 1.8.1 beta version and will look to give it a try tomorrow.

Hi Lisheng

Just to let you know that I have managed to get some initial testing done...basic that is, re. the 1.8.1. beta. Have decrypted my database that I am using with 1.7.2, opened it with 1.8.1 beta, re-encrypted it using the beta, and can now access it via the Android version.

So, so far so good...I have some further testing to do such that I enter a transaction via the desktop, amend it using Android and then check that it is all correct in the desktop...and vice versa. And then a few other more subtle tests...will let you know how those go...most like after the weekend.

But so far...looking good.
