ViewSrv 9 panic while exiting

[janekw_]

Hi,

I have a running standalone (ensymbled) app on the phone. I switch to some othe app (e.g. fexplorer), then I come back to my app. When I try to exit I get the mentioned panic.
I test this issue on a really simple app now, like

import appuifw, e32
def exit_key_handler():
    app_lock.signal()
appuifw.app.exit_key_handler = exit_key_handler
appuifw.app.title = u'whatever'
appuifw.app.body = appuifw.Text()
app_lock = e32.Ao_lock()
app_lock.wait()
appuifw.app.set_exit()

My guess it has something to do with background / foreground switching, but I don't event know if there is some callback informing my app of the switch event?

Thanks very much for any possible interest

I don't get you... What my app does is meaningless, my point is such fairly standard code causes panic when you come back to the app from whatever another app on the phone and when you exit yours. At least when it's a standalone - 'sised' with 'ensymble' utility, like in http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.ph...e_Applications

You stumbled into a bug - Please report this to the SourceForge site of PyS60.

Based on this:

http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/fo...p/t-21240.html

Adding these magical lines:

  PrepareToExit();
  DeactivateActiveViewL();

to the "CAmarettoAppUi:oExit()" method in file "Python_appui.cpp" seems to solve the problem at least in emulator (before the "finalizeappuifw" call).

Thanks for your detailed report.

To tell the truth I didn't notice it on the emulator, but I'll take your word for it, submit the bug to SF and let god (jplauril) sort'em out.

Otsov, your solution works also on the device, I can confirm it.
