EAP version 1.20.0-dev

[Martin]

This forum is used to give interested users access to the next version of Automagic currently in development.
The early access version is only lightly tested and might still contain serious bugs. The quality of EAP versions can at times be even way below usual beta standards.

Use at your own risk!
Ensure to create a backup before you install an EAP version.

Important:

• The EAP version will replace the Google Play version of Automagic on your device. Flows opened, saved and created with the EAP version will usually not be compatible with old versions of Automagic so it is highly recommended to create a backup of your flows, widgets and variables before you start using the EAP version (create a backup of the folder /<sdcard>/Automagic)
• Unknown sources needs to be enabled in the settings of Android to install the EAP version.
• Please report bugs and problems found in the EAP version in the EAP forum or by mail to info@automagic4android.com
• Don't share flows created using the EAP version in the regular flow sharing area since users of the released Automagic version will not be able to use the new triggers, conditions and actions. Feel free to share flows in the EAP forum.
• The EAP version only works for about 4 weeks. Please install a new EAP version when the old one expires or install the released version available in Google Play.

There are also some hidden/inofficial/experimental scripting functions available for some basic math operations with big integers.
Let me know whether this is something you would like to use and should be made available officially (function names might still change):

• Number randomProbablePrime(Number bitSize)
  Constructs a random number instance in the range [0, pow(2, bitLength)-1] which is probably prime.
• Number newBigInteger(String value)
  Constructs a new number instance by parsing value.
• Number randomBigInteger(Number bitSize)
  Constructs a random non-negative number instance in the range [0, pow(2, numBits)-1].
• Number modInverse(Number n, Number m)
  Returns a number whose value is 1/n mod m.
• Number modPow(Number n, Number exponent, Number modulus)
  Returns a number whose value is pow(n, exponent) mod modulus.
• Number gcd(Number n1, Number n2)
  Returns a number whose value is greatest common divisor of n1 and n2.
• Number lcm(Number n1, Number n2)
  Returns a number whose value is least common multiple of n1 and n2.
• Number convertStringToBigInteger(String value)
  Converts the specified value to a number.
• String convertBigIntegerToString(Number number)
  Converts the specified number to a text (should be used only for numbers converted from a text with convertStringToBigInteger).

Regular math operations like +, -, *, / should also work with big numbers.
