[~andreas.pingas], I'm not going to accept this as a bug. This was unfortunately intentional. Here is why... On Android, every JS file has its own "copy" of core Titanium modules such as Ti.Filesystem, Ti.Media, Ti.UI, etc. This is true even in older versions of Titanium. The negative consequence of this is that whatever methods/properties you add to that core Titanium module will not be available to any other JS file. This was an intentional design decision made on Android years ago to support file paths relative to a JS file that it was called in. I don't personally agree with it (doesn't match iOS' behavior), but that's how it works for now. The reason you're seeing this in Titanium 8.1.0 now is because we added relative path support to Ti.Platform.openURL() and Ti.Platform.canOpenURL(). For example, run the below code on both Android and iOS. The below will log if the core library references match between the "app.js" and "foo.js" scripts. Notice that it'll return false on Android for Ti.UI and Ti.Media on older SDK versions, but they return true on iOS. app.js var foo = require("foo"); Ti.API.info("Do 'Ti.UI' modules equals? " + (Ti.UI == foo.TiUI)); Ti.API.info("Do 'Ti.Media' modules equals? " + (Ti.Media == foo.TiMedia)); foo.js exports.TiUI = Ti.UI; exports.TiMedia = Ti.Media; ---- What I recommend that you do instead is set up your own properties/methods in the "global" namespace. For example... global.MyGlobals = { isIOS = true, }; ---- Alternatively, if your goal is to simply identify the platform, then a simpler solution that works for a Classic Titanium app is to do the following... if (Ti.App.Android) { // Do Android stuff... } else if (Ti.App.iOS) { // Do iOS stuff... } else if (Ti.App.Windows) { // Do Windows stuff... }
