Michael Go commented on CB-5753:
--------------------------------

I have figured out why JavaScript error callbacks are not getting called.
In returnLocationError function, the callbackids are sometimes NSNumber, not 
NSString.
But, in sendPluginResult, it will call NSString functions with NSNumber 
callbackids, and throw an error.

Also, I found another issue, of not removing the watchCallbacks ids after 
returning the error callback...
Here is my pull request of this fix

> The delegate handler for didFailWithError appears to have a couple of 
> issues...
> According to the 
> [documentation|https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/CoreLocation/Reference/CLLocationManagerDelegate_Protocol/CLLocationManagerDelegate/CLLocationManagerDelegate.html#//apple_ref/occ/intfm/CLLocationManagerDelegate/locationManager:didFailWithError:],
>  {quote}If the location service is unable to retrieve a location right away, 
> it reports a kCLErrorLocationUnknown error and keeps trying. In such a 
> situation, you can simply ignore the error and wait for a new event.{quote}
> The handler within CDVLocation does not however take this into account and as 
> a result if this error is raised it causes the location manager to be shut 
> down without any warning.
> Within the same handler, there appears to be code to send a notification back 
> to the JavaScript by way of the onError function. This notification is never 
> received in the JavaScript so the error cannot be handled (by calling 
> clearWatch and then restarting with a call to watchPosition for example).
> The first problem is (I believe) fairly easily resolved; simply ignoring the 
> error (though possibly notifying the JavaScript) would suffice.
> I have no idea how to resolve the second problem. I have tried tracing the 
> code and it appears to call commandDelegate::sendPluginResult (via 
> returnLocationError) but the onError function in the (my) JavaScript does not 
> receive the error. I do not understand how the plug-in model works enough to 
> be able to follow up any further for myself.
