Shazron Abdullah updated CB-5753: --------------------------------- Component/s: Plugin Geolocation > iOS: CDVLocation locationManager didFailWithError > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CB-5753 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5753 > Project: Apache Cordova > Issue Type: Bug > Components: iOS, Plugin Geolocation > Affects Versions: 2.9.0, 2.9.1 > Environment: iOS > Reporter: Martin Robin > Labels: patch > > The delegate handler for didFailWithError appears to have a couple of > issues... > According to the > [documentation|https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/CoreLocation/Reference/CLLocationManagerDelegate_Protocol/CLLocationManagerDelegate/CLLocationManagerDelegate.html#//apple_ref/occ/intfm/CLLocationManagerDelegate/locationManager:didFailWithError:], > {quote}If the location service is unable to retrieve a location right away, > it reports a kCLErrorLocationUnknown error and keeps trying. In such a > situation, you can simply ignore the error and wait for a new event.{quote} > The handler within CDVLocation does not however take this into account and as > a result if this error is raised it causes the location manager to be shut > down without any warning. > Within the same handler, there appears to be code to send a notification back > to the JavaScript by way of the onError function. This notification is never > received in the JavaScript so the error cannot be handled (by calling > clearWatch and then restarting with a call to watchPosition for example). > The first problem is (I believe) fairly easily resolved; simply ignoring the > error (though possibly notifying the JavaScript) would suffice. > I have no idea how to resolve the second problem. I have tried tracing the > code and it appears to call commandDelegate::sendPluginResult (via > returnLocationError) but the onError function in the (my) JavaScript does not > receive the error. I do not understand how the plug-in model works enough to > be able to follow up any further for myself. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
