FMX Size (for Android)

Open renlite opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Question: The compiled FireMonkey-Lib for Android has a size of 21 MB/32bit and 31 MB/64bit. Why is the size so huge? How big is a "Hello World" app for Android with DelphiFMX4Python (compressed APK and after installation)?

The desktop versions of DelphiFMX are smaller.

I guess the delphiFMX lib includes all the components/widgtes for all plattforms. Will there be a smaller compiled version for mobile as the desktop widgets are not usefull on mobile?

Hi, @renlite. There are some libraries that we can avoid on the DelphiFMX4Python release. I will remove them on next releases. But Android apps are larger them the desktop versions in general. Thanks for asking :)

A DelphiFMX4Pyton app has a lot of libraries included as the foundation. While this might get a little smaller, I don't expect it to get much smaller.
