[jira] [Commented] (CB-1674) watchPosition example in PG docs eventually times out

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1674?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13507804#comment-13507804 ] 

Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-1674:
--------------------------------------

Not sure if this is a bug. A timeout can occur for various reasons, depending on network conditions and/or radio blockage. It is a bug if you change position and the position success callback never fires.

I tested the full example code, and in between a couple of timeouts the success callback fires multiple times -- so a timeout does not  necessarily stop a watchPosition call.
