Question

SQLLite implementation freezes device

Hello,

Adobe Air apps freeze on Amazon _Underground_. It happens quite randomly and everybody is affected at a certain point. I narrowed down the cause of all this to be likely the outdated SQLLite implementation we have in the AIR SDK. When the app freezes, most often the complete device is locked requiring a rebooting!

Please fix!

Thanks,

Henning

Hi Rakshit,

I forgot something.... the only more seldom operation on the SQLLite database we conduct is that we have a game state table into which/from which we serialize a class (automatically).

The table is created through

"CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS gamestate (" + 

                "    puzzleId INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, " + 

                "    data Object "+                  

                ")";

And we use:

   flash.net.registerClassAlias("TableCellSt", TableCellState);
   registerClassAlias("PuzzleSt", PuzzleState);
   flash.net.registerClassAlias("AnArray", Array);

Thanks,

Henning

Hello Rakshit,

unfortunately the bug cannot be reproduced (on my side) with a systematic POC as it occures rather "randomly" (in different situations, different times, different screens), which speaks for a "thread working parallel in the background like SQLLite).

We just published a new app version without any fancy (no Stage3D/starling this time, no native extensions etc.)

The only fancy it uses is a SQLLite database (that is this time not even encrypted).

Amazon.com: Crosswords Light: Appstore for Android

After a week already the first customers complain about a "freezing" app that requires a rebooting of the device. The same issues occur since a year on our other (more sophisticated) crossword app. The affected may have an updated device of the newest Kindle Fire generation. It is not a memory issue. Please have a look.

Thanks,

Henning
