[GitHub] [cordova-plugin-geolocation] katzlbt opened a new issue #226: iOS 14: Changing authorization in Settings (suspended App) fails to transmit PositionError

[GitBox <gi...@apache.org>]

katzlbt opened a new issue #226:
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-geolocation/issues/226


   # Problem
   
   Changing authorization in Settings to denied (when the App is suspended) fails to transmit PositionError to the WebView
   (found this while testing #224 as I noticed the PERMISSION_DENIED message was not transmitted to the WebView)
   
   ### What is expected to happen?
   
   navigator.geolocation.watchPosition() the error handler is called with PositionError.PERMISSION_DENIED
   
   ### What does actually happen?
   
   navigator.geolocation.watchPosition() the error handler is not called at all.
   
   ## Diagnosis
   
   1. - locationManager: didFailWithError: is correctly called, but it is called **while the app is in the background**!
   2. `[CDVPluginResult resultWithStatus:CDVCommandStatus_ERROR messageAsDictionary:posError]` executes without error
   2. The CDVWebView does not seem to receive anything or JS does not work while in background
   3. CDVWebViewEngine shouldReloadWebView:: is executed after the app has resumed (not sure what that does)
   4. geolocation is stopped without notice/error to the web-view code as errors are not delivered
   
   This is quite difficult to fix.
   **Is there a way to send command-results delayed after the app resumes?**
   
   ### Environment, Platform, Device
