Code sample |
The code sample in 1.1 will not run as presented. The function:
var intervalID = window.setInterval(function() {
if (PhoneGap.available) {
onDeviceReady();
}
}, 500);
is at the root of the problem. A later function:
function onDeviceReady() {
window.clearInterval(intervalID);
// set to true
isPhoneGapReady = true;
alert("Devise is now ready");
}
has intervalID as a param but it is out of scope. I fixed it by:
var intervalID;
(up by the var isPhoneGapReady = false;) declaration.
now the call looks like:
intervalID = = window.setInterval(function() {......}
and the code works. Good book.

code sample in section 1.18 |
The file writing and reading recipes do not work as described in the book.
The code "fileWriter = fileWriter;" does nothing, causing the data to never save.
File functions require permissions in android manifest file which are never discussed. They also require entries in plugins.xml file. Those entries, and the entire xml file are never discussed.
