Android Question Big Timer Problem [SOLVED]

[hogiebaer]

Hi Devs,

i have found a big problem. A timer fired although already disabled !!!

#Region  Project Attributes
   #ApplicationLabel: B4A Example
   #VersionCode: 1
   #VersionName:
   'SupportedOrientations possible values: unspecified, landscape or portrait.
   #SupportedOrientations: unspecified
   #CanInstallToExternalStorage: False
#End Region

#Region  Activity Attributes
   #FullScreen: False
   #IncludeTitle: false
#End Region

Sub Process_Globals
   'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
   'These variables can be accessed from all modules.
End Sub

Sub Globals
   'These global variables will be redeclared each time the activity is created.
   'These variables can only be accessed from this module.
   Dim testtimer As Timer
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
   'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
   'Activity.LoadLayout("Layout1")
 
   Dim ph As Phone
   ph.SetScreenOrientation(1)
 
   testtimer.Initialize("testtimer",3000)
   testtimer.Enabled=True

End Sub

Sub Activity_Resume
End Sub

Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)
End Sub

Sub testtimer_tick
  ToastMessageShow("timer enabled="&testtimer.Enabled,False)
   testtimer.Enabled=False
End Sub

The timer works ok, if i don´t use the ScreenOrientation !!!!!!
But if i use and start the App from LandScapeMode Mode and set the SetScreenOrientation(1) to change to Portrait, ALL TIMERS , which are DISABLED, fired an event !!!!!

If you start in Portraitmode, all works fine, but if the app have to change the orientation, all timers fires.
You can see and test with the example code and will see, that the Toastmessageshow appears with the message FALSE after the first fire.

Whats wrong ??

Solved.

My mistake, i have to declare timers in Process Globals, not in Globals
