[Android] Configure loadUrlTimeoutValue

[hardeep]

Slow application loads will trigger a timeout on Android, this is noticeable on the Android 4.0 emulator.

To resolve this issue the user should be able to configure the loadUrlTimeoutValue defined by super.setIntegerProperty

@hardeep have you had a chance to look at this? shall we get someone else to look at it, if you're too busy?

[hardeep]

@goya is now handling the issue.

[vishwajeet]

[goya]

i'm currently working on the issue and a fix will hopefully be pushed up this week.

I need guidance as to where I can configure the loadUrlTimeoutValue. Is there a way to do it via jQuery (I am developing in jQuery Mobile)?

[vishwajeet]

@jamesarthurjohn : you need to do it in java code there is no way to do it through javascript api right now.

super.setIntegerProperty("loadUrlTimeoutValue", 160000);

@vishwajeet : Thanks!

This has been added to PhoneGap Build now - documentation is at https://build.phonegap.com/docs/config-xml

@alunny Where exactly it is documented in https://build.phonegap.com/docs/config-xml? I can't find any entry about loadUrlTimeoutValue. I only managed to find it in PhoneGap configuration documentation. Not even a word in PGB docs.

I asked that 9 months ago and either resolved it or found a workaround. Either way, I cannot recall.

Great! :] but, I'm asking @alunny as he has closed this issue, claiming, that proper information is in config.xml documentation and it is gone there.

[alunny]

@trejder find in page "Load URL timeout"

[mrfatguy]

@alunny OK. I see, why did I missed it out. Seems that config.xml documentation uses hyphen notation (load-url-timeout), while PhoneGap configuration documentation says about camel case notation (loadUrlTimeoutValue).

Does this change affects other, undocumented in config.xml values? Do I have to use loading-dialog instead of loadingDialog and loading-page-dialog instead of loadingPageDialog, when dealing with PhoneGap Build's config.xml documentation? Or if there is no trace about particular item in config.xml documentation uses hyphen notation (load-url-timeout), then we should assume, that this particular parameters is not supported (like no trace of loading-dialog / loadingDialog).

BTW: There's a bug in either documentation (in "Load URL timeout" section) or PhoneGap Build. Docs says: "defaults to 20000 (20 seconds)", while on Android 2.x I'm receiving timeout errors after about 4-5 seconds, that is 4-5 times shorter period, than docs says.

The PhoneGap Build settings predate the PhoneGap/Cordova config.xml, which only came quite recently.

I no longer work for Adobe, so I'm not the best source of knowledge for PhoneGap Build. Maybe @hardeep or @goya would know the answer to your other questions.
