Targets iOS

Hi…

Hope someone can help me get started on implementing the declares to control idleTimerDisabled…

Thanks,
Jim

Try this:

Function SetIdleTimerDisabled(disabled as boolean) declare sub setIdleTimerDisabled lib "UIKit" selector "setIdleTimerDisabled:" (obj_id as ptr, disabled as boolean) declare function sharedApplication lib "UIKit" selector "sharedApplication" (clsRef as ptr) as ptr declare function NSClassFromString lib "Foundation" (clsName as cfstringref) as ptr setIdleTimerDisabled(sharedApplication(NSClassFromString("UIApplication")), disabled) End Function

Hi folks, I’m resurrecting this thread because somewhere between Xojo 2019 r1.1 and 2019 r3.1 it started causing a hard crash in iOS 13. I’ve verified this with iOS 13.3 in the Simulator (because my main computer is on macOS 10.14) and 13.5.1 on a real device.

Does anyone have an alternative way of toggling the idle timer that works with the current version of Xojo?
