Title: Axe Application transfering
Post by: nabako on February 24, 2016, 01:40:15 pm
Hello,
I do have a problem with a (working) application.
When i try to send it to another Calculator it wont work.
The transfer of other apps like Finance etc. work fine, but if i send a self made
application, it waits a long time and says Error in XMIT.
Does anyone know what could be the problem?
Hope for anwsers.

PS: The source code is ~8400 Bytes large, so I didn't post it here.

You need to transfer the app to a computer first if you haven't done so, then use rabbitsign (http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/383/38392.html) on it. It should work then.

Axe can compile the application's code just fine, but it can't calculate the signature, which requires a relatively complicated cryptographic procedure. And calculators check this cryptographic signature when receiving an application and reject the application if the signature is wrong.

However, you can still send the application to a computer. As pimathbraniac mentioned, you need to sign the application on a computer. But (as long as you're on Windows) rather than grabbing the signing program and using it manually, you may find it easier to check out the "Tools\Application Signing" folder in your (extracted) Axe download. As the name of "Drag App Over Me.bat" suggests, just drag and drop the application (.8xk) file onto this to sign it.

Thank you very much.
This problem ruined the week for me.
