Description

The compiler seems to miss that Ti.Media is used when it's inside a function in an object:

var Rf = {media:{}};

// uncomment this to fix the compiler issue: 
// var test = Ti.Media.fireEvent('hi');

Rf.media.photo = {
 
key: 'photo',
  title: 'Photo',
  extension: 'jpg',
  type: 'image/jpeg',
  create: function(created) {
 
Ti.Media.showCamera({
  animated: false,
  saveToPhotoGallery: false,
  showControls: true,
  success: function() { 
 
var name = Rf.util.timestamp() + '.' + Rf.media.photo.extension;
Rf.write_to_new_file(name, media_item.media, function(file) {
created(file);
 
 
 
 });
      },
      error:function(error)
        {
        // create alert
        var a = Titanium.UI.createAlertDialog({title:'Camera'});
 
        // set message
        if (error.code == Titanium.Media.NO_CAMERA)
        {
            a.setMessage('Please run this test on device');
        }
        else
        {
            a.setMessage('Unexpected error: ' + error.code);
        }
 
        // show alert
        a.show();
    },
    cancel:function()
    {
 
    },
});
 
 
 }
};

Rf.media.photo.create(function(f){
	var test = f;
});

If you run this code, you get the "'undefined' is not an object (evaluating 'Ti.Media.showCamera')" error. If you un-comment the fireEvent line, everything works fine.

@Shannon Hicks What is your iOS version? Just grabbed & installed your sample code directly on iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1 - got the camera working. I will leave this open for a while for further clarifications.

Sample code

   var Rf = {media:{}};
    
   // uncomment this to fix the compiler issue: 
   // var test = Ti.Media.fireEvent('hi');
    
   Rf.media.photo = {
   
   	key : 'photo',
   	title : 'Photo',
   	extension : 'jpg',
   	type : 'image/jpeg',
   	create : function(created) {
   		
   		Ti.Media.showCamera({
   			animated : false,
   			saveToPhotoGallery : false,
   			showControls : true,
   			success : function() {
   
   				var name = Rf.util.timestamp() + '.' + Rf.media.photo.extension;
   				Rf.write_to_new_file(name, media_item.media, function(file) {
   					created(file);
   
   				});
   			},
   			error : function(error) {
   				// create alert
   				var a = Titanium.UI.createAlertDialog({
   					title : 'Camera'
   				});
   
   				// set message
   				if (error.code == Titanium.Media.NO_CAMERA) {
   					a.setMessage('Please run this test on device');
   				} else {
   					a.setMessage('Unexpected error: ' + error.code);
   				}
   
   				// show alert
   				a.show();
   			},
   			cancel : function() {
   
   			},
   		});
   
   	}
   };
   
   Rf.media.photo.create(function(f) {
   	var test = f;
   });

It's been 2 weeks now, closing due to age in no response.

Closing since the issue is not reproducible with 3.2+ of TISDK.
