FileSystem root.fullPath return undefined and root.getFile gives "processMessage failed error" in phonegap.js


this is my first question here, so sorry if I'm writing bad my request. I'm creating a project with Sencha Touch 2.4.1 and PhoneGap (my main target is Android), using the command

sencha app build native

to package. To be short, I need to request the file system and then download some file (images). According to posts like this, I'm trying to use the "getFile()" function before start downloads, but even a simple code like this gives me troubles:

Ext.define("MyApp.utils.Globals", {
    singleton: true,
    alias: 'widget.globals',
    config: {
        // Some vars not related to problem
    },
    constructor: function(config) {
        this.initConfig(config);
    },
    initFileSystem: function(quota) {
        if(Ext.browser.is.PhoneGap && !Ext.os.is.Desktop) {
            Ext.device.FileSystem.requestFileSystem({     
                type: window.PERSISTENT,
                size: quota,
                success: this.initFsSuccess,
                failure: this.initFsFailure
            });
        } else {
            window.requestFileSystem = window.requestFileSystem || window.webkitRequestFileSystem;
            window.requestFileSystem(window.PERSISTENT, quota, this.initFsSuccess, this.initFsFailure);
        }
    },
    initFsSuccess: function(fs) {
        // Save file system reference
        MyApp.app.fS = fs;      
        alert("FS: " + fs.root.fullPath); // This line outputs "FS: undefined"
        fs.root.getFile("newFile.jpg", {create: true, exclusive: false}, function(fileEntry){ alert("GetFile OK"); }, function(error){ alert("GetFile ERR"); });
    },
    initFsFailure: function(err) {
        console.log("File System Error " + err.code);
        Ext.Msg.show({
            title: 'FyleSystem Error',
            message: 'Can\'t access to FileSystem',
            buttons: [ { itemId: 'ok', text: 'Ok', ui: 'decline' } ],
            fn: Ext.emptyFn
        });
    }
});

When I try to access file system's root full path (like in the first alert in "initFsSuccess" function), I get undefined as value. Furthermore, the "getFile" function stops executing (no callback is invoked, success or failure) and in LogCat I'm able to see this:

Thank you all in advice for any help, I'll try to provide any other infos/specs if needed.


Solution

  • Found the solution (even if I don't known why...)! This is what I've done:

    1) In my "app.js" file I've removed the

    'Ext.device.FileSystem'
    

    line from the "requires" section;

    2) Replaced the body of the "initFileSystem()" function reported in first post, with this one

    window.requestFileSystem = window.requestFileSystem || window.webkitRequestFileSystem;
    window.requestFileSystem(window.PERSISTENT, quota, this.initFsSuccess, this.initFsFailure);
    

    It works in:
