Michael Romanovsky commented on CB-8352:
----------------------------------------
OK, I don't know everything about Java and Android so correct me if I'm wrong:
1) To request a survey, PollFish needs an Activity that accesses/controls the
screen. The main Cordova Activity is the only one that can access the webview.
2) PollFish has events which fire and call certain functions in the Activity in
(1), if the Activity is extended via the "implements" operator. The events
won't fire in any other Activity.
3) Since the main Cordova Activity does not pass any function calls other than
onActivityResult, onPause, onResume, etc., the functions must be implemented
inside the main Cordova Activity class to pass data to the plugin. That means
this setup can't be used as a full-fledged plugin because it requires editing
the Activity class / file.
Maybe I am not understanding something, but I don't see any way to get the
various function calls like onPollfishSurveyReceived working inside of my
plugin without modifying the Activity. Is there a bug or some gap in my
understanding of the mechanism here?
> Need some way to expand an activity's functions, or relay them to a plugin.

> There is already startActivityForResult, which helps me run onActivityResult.
> I am having trouble integrating this: http://tinyurl.com/kptdph5
> as a plugin, however. It calls for extending the main Activity to run the
> events, but as far as I know, only onActivityResult will forward back to a
> plugin.
> Some ideas:
> 1) A pre-processing step that rewrites the main Activity and adds functions
> from a specific class into the Activity.
> 2) ???
> 3) PROFIT.
