Bug? OkHttpUtils2 v3.02 + Firebase receiver

[JCO]

Hello,

I have a project that needs to do some checking to a server when it opens, so it has a couple of HttpJobs calls from Activity_Create
It also uses Firebase messaging, and so the Starter service has this:

Sub Service_Create()
    CallSubDelayed(FirebaseMessaging, "SubscribeToTopics")
End Sub

Sometimes (depending on Firebase's time of response, the token refresh happens after the jobs have been received.
When that happens, the jobs never end, that is, the Wait For never gets passed, so I can't know there's an error

I've tried postponing the job launch with sleep, then with a timer. That works most of the time, but sometimes the tokenRefresh takes longer and one can't never know.
The log looks like this:

It is not related to OkHttpUtils2. It is related to Receivers not running the queued events. This will not change.
Switch to B4XPages and it will work as you expect.

Thanks Erel.

I was afraid that it would be something like that. Can't afford now to rewrite the whole project to B4XPages, so I guess I'll just try my luck with timers

Move the http calls from an activity to the starter service. The starter service is never paused (until the process is killed).

Works like a charm! Many thanks ?
