Odd issue only on real Venu

hi everyone,

I have a crash from ERA (and from user report) which does not happen on Simulator and only on Venu.

here is the code:

function onEnterSleep() {
    	if(AoD && Sys.getDeviceSettings().requiresBurnInProtection){
    		BurnP=1;
    		if(gW==416&&AODf){BurnP=2;}
    	}else{Sl=true;}
    	Ui.requestUpdate();
    }

the crash happens on line 4

gW is initiated with function onLayout(dc) {} (gW=dc.getWidth())

AODf is initiated function initialize()

Have I missed something? Should I test if gW==null?!

the odd thing is that it only happens on real Venu (not on EPIX)

What is AODf? If it's a boolen, fine, but if it's a function, you need AODf(). And will only happen if gW==416.

Shent-Aurkhan (SHN) over 4 years ago in reply to jim_m_58

yes AODf is a boolean, and yes that is the purpose to run only on 416 screen device.

the odd part is that is does not crash on EPIX2 and on Venu, not everytime...

maybe for some reason my var gW turns null or AODf also, I'm gonna try a null check.

While the epix2 is 416x416, the original venu is not. Are you sure AODf is an instance of Boolen at all times?

Shent-Aurkhan (SHN) over 4 years ago in reply to jim_m_58

hi, yes I'm sure, this var is initiated once in Initialize (reading a boolean property) and by default is false (var AODf=false)

it happens on Venu2 also that is why I expected it on EPIX.

So you get it from Application.Properties.getValue()? Check that it's a Boolean. If you look at the new developer FAQ, there's a function that insures reading a Number returns a Number and something similar could be happening here. I have the readKeyInt() and a similar readKeyBoolean() in all my apps when it comes to settings.

It could even vary based on Android and iOS. (it did in the past)

Many thanks will do that, first I did an update where a "separate" the value

if(gW==416

&&AODf){

BurnP=2;)

So that I will see excacly where it happens.
