    If you want to present time or duration then you won't find it in the SDK, you'll need to do it yourself.

    A bit tangential to this thread, but there's at least one exception to this. If you return a Time.Duration from the compute…

  • RE: How can I include "binary" string as resource?

    flocsy🤠
    flocsy🤠

    Yes, the input for uncompress() is the compressed string. But if I add the strings as constants then it would make it not possible to even start the app on older devices (that don't have Sysytem7, and having constants would keep them in the code (in the…

  • Temporal Event Delete Hygiene?

    DaveBrillhart

    I see most suggest reaping your BG Temporal Event "deleteTemporalEvent()" in the onTimerStop() method.

    I don't understand why. Athletes often tap the STOP button mid-activity as a manual "pause" if they don't use auto-pause, and then START again…

    Hi all enthusiastic developers!

    I recently bought Raspberry Pi 5 and now I am using it as my main desktop for developing apps. Everything works well, but there is a huge complication with developing for Garmin devices, because the Connect IQ SDK has…

  • What constructs in monkeyc can throw catchable exceptions?

    markw65
    markw65

    The only things I can find that throw catchable exceptions seem to be "throw" (obviously), various Toybox methods (whose implementations presumably "throw" themselves), and (again obviously) anything that (recursively) calls a function that throws, or…

  • Does the sdk documentation accurately represent null returns?

    markw65
    markw65

    I've been adding more "type-awareness" to my optimizer, and one thing I noticed was that it started removing "if (x != null)" checks in some places. When I checked the docs, it turned out it was right; the code was checking the results of…

  • Overflow of themed watchfaces makes good apps invisible

    Gerard
    Gerard

    If you are a developer and spend a lot of time making a good watchface, there is a very good chance that your app will not be seen.
    The reason for this is that there are developers who dump a shitload of themed watchfaces into the store with less features…

    MacOS 12.5.1  - brand new install of OS + ConnectIQ SDK on my 2019 MacBook Pro (x86).

    Yeah, but really if you have or want to have enums just try it out and compare in view Memory.

    BTW previously (maybe in another thread) Jim wrote that if-s are faster than switch cases. Maybe, I haven't tried it out, but there is at least one place in…
