I am having a very frustrating with implementing automatic
landscape/portrait switching. (Sorry for the long post)
To do this I have created an OUTPUT_SIZE routine, and it uses this
logic (not the exact code of course)
Sub Output_Size
If NewFormat=OldFormat then exit sub
Check Output_Height and Output_Width
Resize and move all screen objects
Refresh the screen
OldFormat=NewFormat
End Sub
Now this works perfectly on the emulator and on my WM6 IPAQ. But on
these the orientation is changed in software by going into Settings >
Screen.
One of my BETA testers has one of the latest generation phones where
there is a hardware switch to change the orientation or it switches if
they pull out a keyboard. Now he is having two major problems with 5
out of 6 of my programs (the 6th one works perfectly):
1. The screen does not refresh properly and some of the objects stay
in the wrong position.
2. If he switches the orientation and then shuts the program down it
will not restart. If he checks the 'Running Programs' he finds the
program has shut down but NSBasic is still running in the background.
Now, isolating this routine stops Error 2 from happening, so it seems
as though an error is being generated during this routine (but not
being reported) that is causing NSBasic to hang and not shutdown.
Comparing Program 6 to the other 5 programs the only difference was
that program 6 was more complex so spent more time doing the routine.
And when I added 5 dummy statements to the other 5 programs then
Error appeared to be cured and the programs would stop and start
correctly. But I still can't cure problem 1.
As far as I can see the main difference here is that for the emulator
and my machine the NSBasic program is sent to the background while the
switching is being carried out. In these new machines the program
remains in the foreground while this is happening. Because
OUTPUT_SIZE is called independently we are in the situation where 2
parts of the program are running at the same time, Could this be
confusing the system ? Am I missing something obvious ?
Any help would be appreciated.
