William Wong created CB-2183:
--------------------------------
Summary: [iOS] FileTransfer.didReceiveResponse may not return
NSHTTPURLResponse
Key: CB-2183
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-2183
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: iOS
Affects Versions: 2.2.0
Environment: Tested on iOS 5.1 and 6.0
Reporter: William Wong
Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
Priority: Critical
When FileTransfer.download() is downloading a file from file:///,
NSURLConnection did not return with NSHTTPURLResponse. This will fail for apps
that copy files from www/, e.g. apps that initialize its database from a
pre-built cache packaged in IPA.
In CB-1600 (fixed in 2.2.0), the fix assumes all response must be
NSHTTPURLResponse. So when FileTransfer.download() is downloading from a
file:/// URL (e.g. copying file from www/ folder to Documents/), FileTransfer
assumed the download operation failed and returned 403.
Tested if we comment out CB-1600, downloading from file:/// works again.
We need to find out a better fix instead of commenting out CB-1600.
According to
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/URLLoadingSystem/URLLoadingSystem.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/10000165i,
URL of file:/// is supported.
You can test FileTransfer.download() by calling it with
"encodeURI(document.location.href)" as the "source" parameter.
