I'm working on a MonoTouch project that uses Cordova. I created a binding for Cordova (based on the one created by Scott Blomquist).
I have been able to instantiate the classes fairly well without fail. When I try to extend them however, I run into issues. For example, if I merely try extend the CDVViewController, without even overriding anything, when we get to the code that instantiates this extended class, the system quietly exits with no error messages, and the following exit lines.
The program 'Mono' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
The program '[5600] ***.vshost.exe: Managed (v4.0.30319)' has exited with code -1 (0xffffffff).
Here is the class I'm trying to instantiate
public class WebViewController : CDVViewController
{
}
And here's the binding behind it
[BaseType (typeof (UIViewController))]
interface CDVViewController {
[Export ("webView")]
UIWebView WebView { get; set; }
[Export ("pluginObjects")]
NSMutableDictionary PluginObjects { get; }
[Export ("pluginsMap")]
NSDictionary PluginsMap { get; }
[Export ("settings")]
NSDictionary Settings { get; }
[Export ("whitelist")]
CDVWhitelist Whitelist { get; }
[Export ("loadFromString")]
bool LoadFromString { get; }
[Export ("useSplashScreen")]
bool UseSplashScreen { get; set; }
[Export ("activityView")]
UIActivityIndicatorView ActivityView { get; }
[Export ("imageView")]
UIImageView ImageView { get; }
[Export ("wwwFolderName")]
string WwwFolderName { get; set; }
[Export ("startPage")]
string StartPage { get; set; }
[Export ("commandQueue")]
NSObject CommandQueue { get; set; }
[Export ("commandDelegate")]
NSObject CommandDelegate { get; set; }
[Export ("userAgent")]
string UserAgent { get; }
[Export ("printMultitaskingInfo")]
void PrintMultitaskingInfo ();
[Export ("createGapView")]
void CreateGapView ();
[Export ("newCordovaViewWithFrame:")]
UIWebView NewCordovaView(RectangleF bounds);
[Export ("javascriptAlert:")]
void JavascriptAlert (string text);
[Export ("appURLScheme")]
string AppUrlScheme ();
[Export ("parseInterfaceOrientations:")]
NSArray ParseInterfaceOrientations (NSArray orientations);
[Export ("supportsOrientation:")]
bool SupportsOrientation (UIInterfaceOrientation orientations);
[Export ("getCommandInstance:")]
NSObject GetCommandInstance (string pluginName);
[Export ("registerPlugin:withClassName:")]
void RegisterPluginWithClassName (CDVPlugin plugin, string className);
[Export ("URLisAllowed:")]
bool UrlIsAllowed (NSUrl url);
[Static] [Export ("getBundlePlist:")]
NSDictionary GetBundlePlist (string plistName);
[Static] [Export ("applicationDocumentsDirectory")]
string ApplicationDocumentsDirectory ();
// The following methods and properties come from UIWebViewDelegate, but we can't do multiple inheritance
[Export ("webView:shouldStartLoadWithRequest:navigationType:")]
bool ShouldStartLoad (UIWebView webView, NSUrlRequest request, UIWebViewNavigationType navigationType);
}
The CDVViewController.h that I build the binding for is available here
Any help that anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Update #1
This appears to have been caused by a segmentation fault. For anyone else experiencing this, if you go onto the Mac and check the log, you will likely find the same. You can do this by opening the terminal, and typing in tail -f /var/log/system.log as apparently this is where the logs for the simulator go.
In my log, I found the following. *** is used for redacting the application name.

Update #3 In an effort to get some more information, I decided to override all of the methods in the CDVViewController within my local WebViewController, and then return the value from the base equivalent of each method, and set a breakpoint on the method, and put a Console.WriteLine saying that we entered and exited each method.
To my surprise, the reason for the many many duplications in Update #2 has to do with the fact that when WebViewController.ShouldAutoRotateToInterfaceOrientation is called, we call the base class CDVViewController.ShouldAutoRotateToInterfaceOrientation, which apparently in turn calls WebViewController.ShouldAutoRotateToInterfaceOrientation, and so on.
Looking at the source code for the version of Cordova I'm using (here), shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: would call supportsOrientation:, which would return from an NSArray.
I can't see any reason why CDVViewController.ShouldAutoRotateToInterfaceOrientation should ever call WebViewController.ShouldAutoRotateToInterfaceOrientation. Does anyone in the Xamarin or Cordova community have any idea?
If anyone else is experiencing a similar issue relating to Bindings, I managed to get this working thanks to the advice of Rolf Bjarne Kvinge (Binding issues: extending a class leads method calling itself?)
It turns out that a flag that I was using (without really understanding what it did) was to blame for this. When generating the DLL using btouch the -e flag Generates smaller classes that can not be subclassed.
Removing this will likely solve your problem, like it did for me.
