You have to have the app phone home with its id. The id is determined by the device, and is a product of the device and the app running on it that is to receive notifications. You can phone home via a filesharing service, an online db, contacting a webserver, etc. For distinguishing between the platforms, you can embed "the environment" in your phone home message. The other thing you can do (which I do) is to store the id before sending it. Then with each launch of the app or after some other event, you check the old id and the new one, and if it changes, phone home, again, with the old id (presuming you don't have some other identifier tied to the app on each device. If you do, you can send that, instead) and the new id. On the desktop/server/whatever side, you update, accordingly.
Your app can also check to see if it is receiving notifications, or if notifications are enabled, and act accordingly, including checking to see if it has received all the notifications, and if it needs to pull any other data, since there is no guarantee on either platform that a notification will be delivered. As of right now, silent notifications are not supported in LC so we have to make do with what we have. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
