Using activity in applications ?

Hi

I'm writing a small app that start a ActivityRecording session :

session = Record.createSession({:name=>"Mytest", :sport=>Record.SPORT_GENERIC, :subSport=>Record.SUB_SPORT_GENERIC});
session.start();

But when I execute the following code :

using Toybox.ActivityMonitor as Act;
.../...
var activityInfo = Act.getInfo();
var average_speed = activityInfo.averageSpeed;

I get (at run time) the error :

Could not find symbol averageSpeed

I have the same problem with other fields of http://developer.garmin.com/connect-iq/api-docs/

I checked : activityInfo is not null. What am I doing wrong ?

Thx

The error message is completely correct. You are importing module Toybox.ActivityMonitor under the name Act. Notice that the documentation for ActivityMonitor has a getInfo() method, but the returned object has no averageSpeed? You want to import Toybox.Activity as Act, and you want to call the function Act.getActivityInfo().

We all make mistakes.

Another thing is when you first start recording, some of the values will be null.

for example:

var average_speed = activityInfo.averageSpeed;

You want to check "average_speed!=null" before using it. You might not run into this in the simulator, but you will on a real devive
