I've made a flex mobile app using axiis. It seems to run fine when
running in the emulator, but when I try to run it on an actual iphone
the app will lock up when trying to render a graph. I have narrowed
it down to having a VAxis or HAxis tag. If those aren't included, the
graph renders just fine.

I'm currently using flex 4.5, air 3.0, and am using the
Axiis_Library_flex4.5 library, and my phone is running iOS 4.0.

Has anyone else tried rendering on an actual device and were you able
to have success?

Trying playing around with the fonts and labels in those components - there may be issues with Degrafa RasterText and the new flash font engine

I figured out what the root cause was. The problem itself was only
evident if the .ipa that was running on my phone was built by
exporting a release build. If I built the .ipa doing the fast build
then the graphs rendered fine.

What seemed to be the cause were lines in the commitProperties
function in DataCanvas that I think the adobe compiler was errantly
optimizing out.
For example, take this line:

for (i = _backgroundSprites.length-1; i<backgroundGeometries.length; i+
+) {

I checked the values of _backgroundSprites.length and
backgroundGeometries.length and they would both be what I would
expect, and they definitely should have caused the body of the for
loop to be executed, however the body of the for loop was completely
skipped over.

If I changed that line to this:

var bgSpritesLen:int = _backgroundSprites.length-1;
var bgGeoLen:int = backgroundGeometries.length;
i=0;
for (i = bgSpritesLen; i < bgGeoLen; i++) {

then the body of the for loop would execute and the graph would render
properly. I really wish I knew why that worked.

I didn't test it, but I assume the equivalent loop for
foregroundGeometries in the same function suffers that same problem.
