Hi Shazron,
Actually I started out building it this way, I’ve changed it to way it’s now,
because it didn’t work. Once the application has moved to the background trying
to invoke the method with the plugin result no longer works. I’ve seen other
plugins use the ‘named’ callback ’trick’ and thought that was the way to invoke
a callback from background. Shall I try to investigate why this is not working?
Cheers,
Erik Jan
