Summary: There is a bug in the android geolocation plugin of
Cordova 2.3
Key: CB-2273
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-2273
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Android
Affects Versions: 2.3.0, 2.2.0
Environment: HTC t328D,Android 4.0.3
Reporter: SunshineTech Zhang
Assignee: Joe Bowser
When I call the watchPosition function, it only call back my successCallback
function 2 times and errorCallback function once. That is, it call back
successCallback function of getCurrentPosition and watchPosition; and
errorCallback function of watchPosition when timeout event was fired. Then the
plugin gives nothing any more.
Then I read the source code of org.apache.cordova.GeoBroker and
org.apache.cordova.CordovaLocationListener. I found there was an issue in the
win and fail method of org.apache.cordova.CordovaLocationListener. That is,
after the listener called its callbacks' by traversal, it then stop itself, so
it doesn't listen position changed information for its watches list.
So I modify them, the plugin runs well.
1. I modify the win and fail method in the
org.apache.cordova.CordovaLocationListener as the following:
protected void fail(int code, String message) {
for (CallbackContext callbackContext: this.callbacks)
{
this.owner.fail(code, message, callbackContext, false);
}
if(this.owner.isGlobalListener(this) && this.watches.size() == 0)
{
Log.d(TAG, "Stopping global listener");
this.stop();
}
this.callbacks.clear();
Iterator it = this.watches.values().iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
this.owner.fail(code, message, it.next(), true);
}
}
private void win(Location loc) {
for (CallbackContext callbackContext: this.callbacks)
{
this.owner.win(loc, callbackContext, false);
}
if(this.owner.isGlobalListener(this) && this.watches.size() == 0)
{
Log.d(TAG, "Stopping global listener");
this.stop();
}
this.callbacks.clear();
Iterator it = this.watches.values().iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
this.owner.win(loc, it.next(), true);
}
}
2、I modify the win and fail method in the org.apache.cordova.GeoBroker as the
following:
public void win(Location loc, CallbackContext callbackContext, boolean
keepCallback) {
PluginResult result = new PluginResult(PluginResult.Status.OK,
this.returnLocationJSON(loc));
result.setKeepCallback(keepCallback);
callbackContext.sendPluginResult(result);
}
public void fail(int code, String msg, CallbackContext callbackContext, boolean
keepCallback) {
JSONObject obj = new JSONObject();
String backup = null;
try {
obj.put("code", code);
obj.put("message", msg);
} catch (JSONException e) {
obj = null;
backup = "{'code':" + code + ",'message':'" + msg.replaceAll("'",
"\'") + "'}";
}
PluginResult result;
if (obj != null) {
result = new PluginResult(PluginResult.Status.ERROR, obj);
} else {
result = new PluginResult(PluginResult.Status.ERROR, backup);
}
result.setKeepCallback(keepCallback);
callbackContext.sendPluginResult(result);
}

Thanks,
Please file an issue at http://issues.cordova.io - this mailing list is for
the discussion of the development of the Cordova API only.

I think there is a bug in the android geolocation plugin of Phonegap 2.3
When I call the watchPosition function, it only call back
my successCallback function 2 times and errorCallback function once. That
is, It only fires timeout event once. Then the plugin doesn't give to me
the position. I read the plugin source, I think there are some problems.
Then I modify them, the plugin runs well.
1、I modify the win and fail method in the org.apache.cordova.GeoBroker as
the following:
public void win(Location loc, CallbackContext callbackContext, boolean
keepCallback) {
PluginResult result = new PluginResult(PluginResult.Status.OK,
this.returnLocationJSON(loc));
result.setKeepCallback(keepCallback);
callbackContext.sendPluginResult(result);
}
public void fail(int code, String msg, CallbackContext callbackContext,
boolean keepCallback) {
JSONObject obj = new JSONObject();
String backup = null;
try {
obj.put("code", code);
obj.put("message", msg);
} catch (JSONException e) {
obj = null;
backup = "{'code':" + code + ",'message':'" +
msg.replaceAll("'", "\'") + "'}";
}
PluginResult result;
if (obj != null) {
result = new PluginResult(PluginResult.Status.ERROR, obj);
} else {
result = new PluginResult(PluginResult.Status.ERROR, backup);
}
result.setKeepCallback(keepCallback);
callbackContext.sendPluginResult(result);
}
2、I modify the win and fail method in
the org.apache.cordova.CordovaLocationListener as the following:
private void win(Location loc) {
for (CallbackContext callbackContext: this.callbacks)
{
this.owner.win(loc, callbackContext, false);
}
this.callbacks.clear();
if(this.owner.isGlobalListener(this) && this.size() == 0)
{
Log.d(TAG, "Stopping global listener");
this.stop();
}
Iterator it = this.watches.values().iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
this.owner.win(loc, it.next(), true);
}
}
protected void fail(int code, String message) {
for (CallbackContext callbackContext: this.callbacks)
{
this.owner.fail(code, message, callbackContext, false);
}
this.callbacks.clear();
if(this.owner.isGlobalListener(this) && this.size() == 0)
{
Log.d(TAG, "Stopping global listener");
this.stop();
}
Iterator it = this.watches.values().iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
this.owner.fail(code, message, it.next(), true);
}
}
Re: Cygwin for Windows
Yes, please! Descriptive errors would go a long way to making the tools easier to use. At least it would point at a specific reason for failure vs the current vague message. __ Kerri Shotts photoKandy Studios LLC Sent from my iPhone 📱 Phone: +1 (312) 380-1035 🌐 Web: http://photokandy.com Twitter: @photokandy On Jan 20, 2013, at 22:14, Simon MacDonald wrote: > -1 > > We should just make the windows scripts work better.

Simon MacDonald commented on CB-2165:
-
[~agrieve] Isn't there some way we can make "true" = true and "false" = false?
What you've done doesn't really solve the problem when a boolean string is
passed in where a boolean is expected.

Re: Media APIs - some research and discussion
Just reading everything over and looking at the way things are going it seems like we should get the Web Intents API implemented. Looks like there is already a shim implemented here: https://github.com/PaulKinlan/WebIntents with an APL license.

Filip Maj commented on CB-2272:

This is one that came up on IRC as well. Before 2.4.0rc1, if the android
{{./bin/create}} script fails, it exits with code 0, so the CLI tools don't
know if {{./bin/create}} fails or not. This was tracked in CB-2204.
It's quite possible that your Android {{./bin/create}} script is erroring out.
On IRC [~devgeeks] came across the same issue and it turned out he didn't have
permissions on
{{/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova/lib/cordova-2.3.0/cordova-android/bin/create}},
but because it didn't error out, cordova-cli failed to give a good error
message. Try the following:
{code}
cd /usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova/lib/cordova-2.3.0/cordova-android
./bin/create tmp
{code}
If it works, then it's something else. Otherwise, it's probably permissions or
something. When you install {{cordova}} or run {{npm update}} for it, it should
print out a notice, instructing you to run {{sudo chown}} on
{{node_modules/cordova}} if you have node installed globally.

Re: Cygwin for Windows
-1 I (and most people) just want to get going and don't like dependencies. We're already requiring nodejs for a lot of the stuff we do. If you're referring to the Android windows scripts. I believe they work fine. If there are any issues with them, people should report them just as they would report any other issue.

Re: Cygwin for Windows
Just my 2¢: people are already complaining about the number of parts that need to be installed -- do we really want to add yet another? I realize it would make the scripts easier, but the more moving (third party) parts that have to be installed prior to using PhoneGap (especially those that aren't required for the platform's SDK), the higher the barrier to entry.

Cygwin for Windows
I'm sure this has come up some time in the past, but why not require cygwin so that our scripts will work on windows? Cygwin has been a requirement of most of the windows projects I've worked on in the past (when at different companies).
Re: Getting Started (Android) feedback
Looking at the two guides right now, two things struck me as different: 1. Andrew's walks you through *how* to install all of the required tools, we just say which tools to install 2. Andrew's instructions go through the old way of setting up a project, which is now out of date. But! Once going through them, you get a pretty good idea of how Cordova works because he points out what all of the pieces do. E.g. the jar is the native side, the www is your code, the manifest is where your permissions go. As for #1, I think the short version we have in our guide is sufficient, and I don't like the idea of having it explained out more thoroughly step-by-step, because it's then more of a pain to keep up-to-date. I can see us doing more in the area of #2 though. E.g. have a separate guide that goes through all of the parts of an Android Cordova app, and points out which ones you may want to touch at some point. I also agree that it might make things more clear to separate out IDE instructions from the core command-line instructions. I don't think we should remove them though, since the IDE is the harder thing to figure out usually :P. Perhaps to tie in these external tutorials, we add a note at the bottom saying that if you still need help, to search for external tutorials / youtube walkthroughs / link to the user forums? We could also mention which versions of Cordova have had changes in steps, so that they don't follow old tutorials like the one that was pointed out.

[jira] [Commented] (CB-2190) FileTransfer does not request more time than the 5 second limit when placed in background.
