As a WebWorks developer, I can listen for an event that will be fired when the device enters a low memory state so I can attempt to clean up

[kwallis]

Acceptance Criteria

• The developer can listen for the blackberry.system.memorylow event using the blackberry.event.add/removeEventListener() functions
• This event will fire when the device enters a memory low state.

We have the event but we have no idea how to test it. @kwallis @adrianlee

Can we find out who tests it on the native side?

For a test, perhaps you could try to continuously set and get a growing amount of data to the localStorage or the openDatabase? We tried such a procedure on iPad in the past and at the end the system freezed.

This is being developed as an example native extension right now.

Oh, native extension sounds good to me for other use cases too! Can't wait to see an example.

[nukulb]

the team is actually working on it right now so if you want to give feedback here is the branch that is being worked on right now.
