[jira] [Updated] (CB-10657) [wkWebView] wkWebView disables JS
execution when app is backgrounded
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10657?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
John Robert Cobbold updated CB-10657:
--------------------------------------
Description:
When using wkWebView, Javascript execution is totally stopped after the app is backgrounded by the user. This is a major problem for apps using background modes as no javascript callback will be executed unless the app is either in the foreground or was already terminated by the user / OS.
example: cordova-plugin-geofence's javascript callbacks will not trigger after the app was backgrounded but will however trigger if the app is in the foregrounded or was killed by the user / OS.
UIView does not have this problem.
