Does CN1 framework (API) guarantee identical behavior between Android, iOS and hopefully the Simulator?
I am seeing some differences in logic when my app runs on Android and iPhone. The pseudo-logic is as below
main() {
display_msg_detecting_corporate_network(); //1
detect_network_connection(); //2
if(is_corp_network_available) { //3
display_message_to_client_to_wait(); //4
load_more_information(); //5
......
}
else { //6
//corporate network unavailable
display_msg_corp_network_unavailable(); //7
exit; //8
}
}
on the simulator and on Android the program executes in sequence as below
when_corporate network available: steps: 1 - 5
when_corporate network unavailable: steps: 6 - 8
The issue is on the iPhone
when corporate network unavailable:
steps: 1,4 and 8
how is it possible?

The devil will be in the details. You'll need to post real code to comment.

We don't guarantee that and no one can.
Behavior will always differ and you always need to test on devices, however it should differ within reasonable sensible well documented parameters as long as you stick to our API's/guidelines.
Keep in mind that the device implements things the simulator can't e.g. native input (VKB), native widgets etc.
Networking is implemented natively in the devices, on iOS this is especially different as restrictions from Apple exist that do not exist in other platforms e.g. https://www.codenameone.com/blog/ios-http-urls.html
