If you're willing, please file a pull requests by following the instructions here: http://wiki.apache.org/cordova/ContributorWorkflow > FileTransfer does not request more time than the 5 second limit when placed > in background. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CB-2190 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-2190 > Project: Apache Cordova > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: iOS > Affects Versions: 2.2.0 > Environment: iOS 6.0.1, Cordova 2.2.0. > Reporter: Leif Ullman > Assignee: Shazron Abdullah > Attachments: CDVFileTransfer.h, CDVFileTransfer.m > > > I've been running into an issue using FileTransfer on iOS that cropped up as > part of my upgrade to Cordova 2.2. Previously I had been on PhoneGap 1.2 (a > long time between upgrades I know). When using the 1.2 version, I could > start a filetransfer upload (using sample code from here: > http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.2.0/cordova_media_capture_capture.md.html#Capture) > and it would continue to run if I returned to the home screen or if I locked > the device. Now it appears that suspending the app will cause a > FileTransferError to occur with error code 3 and error message "The request > timed out". > After trading some emails with Shazron, he pointed out that the limit to > finish up background tasks is 5 seconds. If the task will take longer, the > app has to request more time -- and FileTransfer does not do this currently > (although the CDVLocalStorage plugin in onResignActive does: > https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/blob/master/CordovaLib/Classes/CDVLocalStorage.m#L378 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
