[jira] [Commented] (CB-3379) Incorrect way of trying to XHR the
cordova_plugins.json file
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3379?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13656123#comment-13656123 ]
Joe Bowser commented on CB-3379:
--------------------------------
We don't use jetty or any other server, so there will be no http status.

> Key: CB-3379
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3379
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CordovaJS
> Affects Versions: 2.7.0
> Reporter: Ilya
> Assignee: Filip Maj
>
> Frankly, I don't like the way you are trying to XHR the cordova_plugins.json file asynchronously (*lines 6811-6831 in cordova-2.7.0.js*).
> Why there is no check:
> {code:title=cordova-2.7.0.js|borderStyle=solid}
> xhr.onload = function() {
> if (xhr.readyState === 4) {
> if (xhr.status === 200) {
> ....
> handlePluginsObject(obj);
> } else {
> finishPluginLoading();
> }
> }
> }
> ....
> {code}
> For instance, if there is no cordova_plugins.json jetty server will send a responce with the following responceText:
> {code:xml}
> "<html>
> <head>
> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1"/>
> <title>Error 404 Not Found</title>
> </head>
> <body>
> <h2>HTTP ERROR: 404</h2>
> <p>Problem accessing /cordova_plugins.json. Reason:
> <pre> Not Found</pre></p>
> <hr /><i><small>Powered by Jetty://</small></i>
> </body>
> </html>"
> {code}
> And JSON.parse will throw "*SyntaxError: Unexpected token <*", which won't be caught - app will crash
