venkata guddanti commented on CB-12193:
---------------------------------------

We have our own framework. To create a test case, create a HTML Windows 10 
application and include cordova.js in a webview after WinJS file. Or the WinJS 
location should match /www/WinJS/js/base.js that cordova is trying to load. 

I can create a test case if necesary

> The back button support in cordova.js crashes windows app. In particular the 
> following line crashes:
> var navigationManager = 
> Windows.UI.Core.SystemNavigationManager.getForCurrentView();
> Putting try catch around it does not help. It crashes deep in the bowels of 
> native code. So I believe there should a fix similar to the following code in 
> WinJS base.js:
>     // If getForCurrentView fails, it is an indication that we are running in 
> a WebView without
>     // a CoreWindow where some WinRT APIs are not available. In this case, we 
> just treat it as
>     // if no WinRT APIs are available.
>     var isCoreWindowAvailable = false;
>     try{
>       _Global.Windows.UI.ViewManagement.InputPane.getForCurrentView();
>       isCoreWindowAvailable = true;
>     }
>     catch (e){
>     }
> You can then skip setting up the back button handler if there is no 
> CoreWindow:
> if (isCoreWindowAvailable)
>       {
>         var navigationManager = 
> Windows.UI.Core.SystemNavigationManager.getForCurrentView();
>         ...
> }
> I am aware that Cordova Windows 10 is not supported in a WebView (i.e. there 
> is no CoreWindow). But WinJS and majority of Windows APIs work. Cordova 4.0.0 
> used to work as well, since there was no back button support in it. Plugins 
> that need CoreWindow (i.e. plugins that show native UI) like Camera etc have 
> issues without it. We have a framework where we proxy these plugins through 
> the main application Window (similar to iOS and Android).
> Please do consider this and incorporate a fix in cordova for Windows 10
