Require.js Cordova 1.6 and deviceready

[Will]

I'm trying to include require.js, but whenever I do, it seems that deviceready is never fired.

If I try to load cordova through require.js, Xcode complains that Cordova setinfo isn't available (like it's sending data to webkit before require has initialized the cordova). If I don't have require load a "main" script, it seems to catch the event.

I removed require.js and deviceready is being caught by my index inline javascript.

It seems that if I use require, the deviceready event is firing before my dom is ready, or require is done.

Is there a way to check if deviceready has fired directly through the cordova object? cordova.isDeviceReady() or something?

We have this exact same problem. It worked fine in 1.5, but
deviceready no longer fires if require.js is referenced.

Probably this bug

I reported on this ML, too.

I don't think it's that bug. I have been using addEventListener all along. Cordova 1.5 worked fine (with a patch to the JS to get around the require/define method issue) with RequireJS.

I just tried to move to 1.6.0 and deviceready fires but all the libraries I try to load after Cordova fail with a timeout. I tried moving the Cordova library as the last one to be loaded but that still doesn't help. It fires deviceready much quicker than it used to with 1.5 and then the rest of the libraries cannot be loaded.

That's not the same bug. My code for listening for deviceready looks
like this:

document.addEventListener("deviceready", function()
{ alert('device ready'); }, false);

It does not work unless I comment out my require.js reference.

I think the issue is with Cordova defining its own versions of require and define. 

I might have managed to get it working by running uglifyjs on cordova-1.6.0.js putting that in a separate <script> in my html file and including require.js after this.

seems to work for me

hej,
I have the same problem - the deviceready is not called, but even I
removed requestJs completely from html. when I moved back to 1.5
everything works fine, so there must something about cordova1.6

I tried very basic example from http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.6.0/cordova_events_events.md.html#deviceready
and it works on 1.5 and breaks on 1.6
