[jira] [Updated] (CB-10930) startActivityForResult cancels pending Activity requests when new ones arrive

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10930?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Richard B Knoll updated CB-10930:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
If a plugin makes multiple calls to {{cordova.startActivityForResult}} before the Activity results have been delivered, only the last call will actually get its result delivered to the plugin. All the others will get a canceled error returned instead. The issue here is that all of those activities will still be started; their results will just get thrown out after they finish. 

For example, if you call {{captureImage}} from cordova-plugin-media-capture five times in rapid succession, the user will take five photos but only one of those photos will actually be returned. The other four will just be lost. I don't think there is anything stopping us from properly handling multiple pending requests.
