FitContributor and min SDK support

Hi,

Sorry, I haven't got a unsupported 1.3/2.1 device (like epix) to test this.

If I use FitContributor and set the Min SDK to 1.2.x on a DataField, and then using the code (self has :createField) operator to check it exists; will this be okay on devices like Epix (or even supported devices on a older Firmware) when it comes across the using Toybox.FitContributor in the project?

I don't want to exclude these unsupported devices from using the DataField, but just not enable the FIT recording.

Cheers
Chris

You should use "has" for the FitContributor calls before you use them. Maybe check in initialize() and set a boolean, and then check that boolean where ever you need in your code.

Yes, you should be fine when it comes to createField, but I'm not sure about is what happens if you have a using Toybox.FitContributor as Contrib at the top of the file, but Toybox has :FitContributor would return false. It seems to me it should be harmless, but I honestly do not know.
