New to BGS - A couple of questions. about bgs-core HOT 5 CLOSED

Q1) Removing sample plugin - I think you remove the plugin using the Codova CLI. I've never needed to do, so I can't advise - I'd suggest a search

Q2) Timer running every 60 seconds rather then 5. Yes possibly there is a clash between your code and the same. I can't see a reason why it would ignore the 5000

Q3) Database access - you need to do the work within the doWork method as Java. The background service (and thus the doWork) will have no JavaScript interpreter if the app has closed.

Thanks for the reply. I wanted to use your sample plugin for a base and just build on top of that because I know it works, rather than remaking everything.

In BackgroundServicePlugin logic there is this piece of code which suggests that 60000 is always going to be present. I don't exactly understand the code but its a thought.

public ExecuteResult enableTimer(JSONArray data)
{
ExecuteResult result = null;

        int milliseconds = data.optInt(1, 60000);

Thanks again.

optInt is being provided a default if the JSON value cannot be converted to an interger - see -> http://www.json.org/javadoc/org/json/JSONObject.html#optInt(java.lang.String, int)

Are you able to add some log.D statements within the enableTimer to check the contents of the data variable and what the milliseconds actually gets set to?

I checked it on my test bed and it all seems to work fine with 5000
