Problem with SPTexture loadFromSuffixedURL in iOS 6.0

jbernabeu

I have detected that the command:

[SPTexture loadFromSuffixedURL:<#(NSURL *)#> generateMipmaps:<#(BOOL)#> onComplete:<#^{SPTexture *texture, NSError *outError}callback#>];

Doesn't work in ios 6.0 (you can probe it in Simulator iPad with the iOS 6.0 version).

Is there any workaround ???

Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the late reply!

I just tried it myself, and I can reproduce it -- however, only on the simulator! It does work on my 3GS with OS 6.1.

Have you got an actual iOS 6 device to verify this?

Daniel

The GLKTextureLoader I'm using since Sparrow 2.0 is really the crappiest API I've ever seen. 90% of all errors I had with Sparrow 2.0 are because of this class.

In this case, the error you get is the following:

Could not find resource my-file.png at specified location.

But it's there -- iOS 5 and iOS 7 simulators find it, and all real iOS's.

🤬 🤬 🤬

All I can do is add a warning telling you that it's just a simulator bug.

Daniel

I'm now logging out that warning, so that users at least know what it's about.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for answer. I have probed it in a iPad2 with iOS 6.0 and it happens the same problem, is not just in the simulator.

Daniel

Oh! That's weird, because I tried with my 3GS, where it worked. (I don't haven an iPad 2 to test, unfortunately.)

Is it using iOS 6.0 or the latest update? My 3GS definitely has a later 6.x version. Perhaps they fixed it later?

And I guess you're loading a texture from a remote URL, right? Not from a local file? Because if it's the latter, you could use "loadFromFile:", which doesn't have that problem.

The iPad 2 is using iOS 6.0 in iOs 6.1 works great.

I can't use loadFromFile cause I am loading an URL file from a server.
