------------------------------
Component/s: Android
> Cordova Callback Logic Not Implemented Correctly - Native Asynchronous
> Completion Can Call Wrong Logic in Javascript - Requires Non-recurring Unique
> ID as Outlined

> Key: CB-1318
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1318
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android, iOS
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Jimmy Jarvis
> Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.2.0

> Original Estimate: 1h
> Remaining Estimate: 1h

> This bug creates very difficult to find execution anomalies for any
> asynchronous callback that occurs when the calling context has changed.
> PROBLEM: Cordova callback logic can trigger the callback function of an
> unrelated call from a different context. When a call from Javascript is made,
> Cordova generates a new callbackId, adds it to the cordova.callbacks array,
> and passes it along to the native code. Some time later, when the native code
> completes the request, it injects javascript to call the callbackSuccess or
> callbackError function. The respective callback handler looks up the callback
> attributes from the cordova.callbacks array and executes the original
> caller's completion function. The problem is each page, or reload of a page,
> resets the callbackId counter to zero and new calls end up reusing the same
> callbackId, even though the native code haS not yet completed the prior
> request. This can occur upon a new page load or reload upon an empty href in
> an anchor tag. A call to native code from page1.html could trigger the
> completion routine on page2.html because the native code has no context of
> the change on the other side of the bridge.
> SOLUTION: Replace the incrementing callbackId with a unique identifier to
> insure only the caller's completion logic will be called. I have done this
> with a Pseudo-GUID generator. Fix outlined below:
> // REPLACE THIS LINE in both cordova.2.0.0.js and cordova.ios.js
> callbackId = service + cordova.callbackId++; // BUG: incrementing
> Id's can call unrelated callback logic
> // WITH THIS LINE
> callbackId = service + ":" +
> 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx'.replace(/[xy]/g, function(c) {var r =
> Math.random()*16|0,v=c=='x'?r:r&0x3|0x8;return v.toString(16);}); // Generate
> unique callbackID with Pseudo-GUID
> This fix insures no code will execute if the caller's context has changed and
> is a more well formatted callbackId.
