I am using Display.screenshot() to get a screen shot for the current displayed screen.
My application has all available persmissions set to allow,
it works well in all device application, but it doesn't work on Facebook and Twitter app -
on those apps i got an exception:
Error: net.rim.device.api.system.ControlledAccessException: Unauthorized attempt to attach to this application
what should I do to overcome this?
You seem to be calling Application.getApplication() somewhere in the code.
Your ApplicationMenuItem code generally runs within the UI application whose menu it is launched from. So when you click your ApplicationMenuItem within facebook app, it executes within the event dispatcher thread of facebook app.
However, since your code is not a part of the facebook app, it can't access its Application Object using the Application.getApplication() method.
If you are not calling this method yourself, maybe Display.screenshot() calls it internally. To solve this, you need to run the code in your app's event dispatcher thread. This can be done by using the special method addMenuItem(long, ApplicationMenuItem, ApplicationDescriptor) while registering the menu item and passing it your app descriptor.

To give more clarity on the issue, i am developing this for IOS using expo push notifications and react-navigation v6 along with expo sdk44 in my current project.
I am having an issue when the user interacts with the notification while the app is in a killed state (the notificatiosn arrives succesfully with all of the data), what im having trouble with is, i want to navigate the user to a specific screen. The problem is because my navigationRef is null. Here i need to mention i did not create a seperate RootNavigator. Like it is shown here https://reactnavigation.org/docs/navigating-without-navigation-prop/ .
What would be the "proper" way of handling this? So far i've tried putting all of the relevant push notification listener code inside NavigatonContainer's onReady callback ( this worked).
I also tried making a seperate useEffect and changing the state of a isReady variable and setting its new value in <NavigationContainer ref={navigationRef} onReady={() => {setNavigatorReady(true)}}> to force a rerender and thus running the code inside useEffect again. (this approach did not work)
Just to sum up my current problem. When the user interacts with a notification while the app is in a killed state i want them to be navigated to a specific screen.
Thanks in advance.
I too am using react-navigation 6.x and expo. To tackle this problem I pretty much followed this section on expo's docs: https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/notifications/#addnotificationresponsereceivedlistenerlistener-event-notificationresponse--void-void.
It shows you how to implement addNotificationResponseReceivedListener which is called whenever a user interacts with a notification. It works in all situations, even when the app is killed, which is the specific situation you are interested in.
The docs also show you how to integrate this listener with react-navigation. Link: https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/notifications/#handling-push-notifications-with-react-navigation
My application opens a view controller which requires the user to enter their passcode to continue. I am writing UI automation and have used the record option to attempt to discover the element name that I need to interact with. The recorder tells me to use the following:
app.secureTextFields["Passcode field"].tap()
However when I run the test the secureTextField is not found. When I print out the elements in app there is no evidence of the view controller that is currently in the foreground and only the elements of my own application (which is in the background currently) are listed. I have also attempted to use addUIInterruptionMonitor (suggestions found here). The test fails on app.tap() stating that the application for target application is not in the foreground.
Is anyone aware of how to access elements of a system dialog currently in the foreground using XCTTest?
I'm developing an iOS app using MFP 7.0.
Each screen (i.e., view controller) has a unique ID, and I am supposed to use Operational Analytics to send the following info to the server:
How long the user spent on each screen
On which screen the app crashed
Regarding #1, I guess I am supposed to use WLAnalytics's
- (void) log:(NSString*)message withMetadata:(NSDictionary*)metadata;
(right?)
How can I manage #2? Should I just log the screen ID (using the method above) every time a transition occurs, and expect the last logged id to be passed when the crash log is sent? Or is there any other way to add custom information to crash logs?
Correct you can follow Custom Data, Custom Charts here https://mobilefirstplatform.ibmcloud.com/tutorials/en/foundation/7.0/moving-production/operational-analytics/
Crash log is detected and sent automatically post crash next time app is started. There is no way to add custom data to that report. Usually the place where the error happen could be deduced form the crash data stack, if this is not sufficient, you can apply the technique you are describing.
I am working on an app using Monaca where I need to be able to push notifications to users of the app. I tried getting the monaca push back-end working, and that wouldn't work, the app didn't register. I then moved to using the standard cordova plugin, so I can push directly from my servers, without using monaca's back-end. when I call the init function, normally a register event will fire, this works fine when I build the app. However I very much want to get the custom debugger working, I am able to build the custom debugger, and I see the plugin properly installed. Also the init function gets called, as soon as it is called I get the standard IOS security alert to grant the app permission, however the register event is not fired, therefore I am unable to get the device ID to push to the custom debugger app. Has anyone been able to use push notifications with the custom debugger application?
Best,
Peter

P.S, i calls to set the badge count setApplicationIconBadgeNumber works fine in the debugger. I think this is something simple, maybe with the certs? I dont get any errors fired, no notifications no clues using the standard debugger, how can I hunt down what the issue is?
I can get it work using ngCordova, which is AngularJS integration.
http://ngcordova.com/docs/plugins/pushNotifications/
Then, inject it like
var app = ons.bootstrap('myApp', ['onsen', 'ngCordova']);
Get back to me if you need further clarification.
How programmatically restart an iPhone app in iOS?
I find this way http://writeitstudios.com/david/?p=54
But may be something simple.
The only way I know to do this is not ideal, but it works.
First, your app has to opt out of background execution (multitasking) The app has to quit when exited, not run as a background task. This is done with the plist key UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend.
Second, your app needs to register a custom URL scheme that can be used to launch the app.
Third, you need a web page hosted somewhere that when loaded will redirect to your app's custom URL scheme.
Forth, the user needs an active Internet connection.
To exit and restart, call UIApplication openURL on your hosted redirecting web page. Your app will exit and safari will launch and load your page. The page will redirect Safari to your custom URL scheme, prompting Safari to internally call openURL, causing iOS to launch your app.
my post that you linked to is referring to a Cocoa Application, not the iOS. On the iOS, you can quit an application (but Apple doesn't like this) by using exit(0); but I don't recommend that. You cannot restart iPhone apps though.
Unless you're developing for jailbroken devices, Apple won't even allow you to programatically terminate your app. So restarting the device is out of the question.
Your AppDelegate instance has a method
(void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application
{
}
In here, you can put logic to figure out if the app should restart, or continue doing whatever it was doing. For example you can have a BOOL variable appMustRestart that is false at first but gets triggered as true whenever something happens in your app that you'd like the next time to be a fresh relaunch.
if (appMustRestart)
{
[self resetVars]; // call a method that resets all your vars to initial settings
// INSERT CODE HERE TO TRANSFER FOCUS TO INITIAL VIEWCONTROLLER
}
