[jira] [Commented] (CB-39) Flashing after Resume

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-39?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13201965#comment-13201965 ] 

Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-39:
------------------------------------

This is a question, not an issue - and thus will be closed. 

Answering the question - no, JavaScript execution is paused and all network connections are dropped. Only certain Obj-C calls can be "run in the background" based on settings in the app's Info.plist

No, the js does not need to be re-initiated - the flash you see might be a memory issue where a resource was released, then reloaded (image etc) - but that's just my guess.

> Hello,
> I don't know if these is the right place to log this - however this is purely a question of what happens to PhoneGap apps when the app is in the background.
> Does the JS still continue to work when the app is placed in the background? I've seeing a lot of errors for JS file uploads stopping after the user pressed the home button during an upload.
> What happens when the app resumes? Does the JS have to be re-initated? For example - I use iScroll in my app, and everytime I load it back up from running in the background, the UIWebView flashes (almost like a partial reload) and continue. If I change the orientation of the device, it doesn't do this action - only when you try to resume. Is this PhoneGap thing or iScroll thing? Has anyone seen this issue?
> Thanks,
> Greg
