Description

All data stored in any kind of Ti.App.Properties are reset when I rebuild and redeploy my app. I tried building both using Appcelerator Studio and via CLI (ti build --platform windows --target wp-emulator --device-id 8-1-4) and it gives the same result.

    Test code 
       Ti.API.info("Starting");
   
   
   function doClick(e) {
       Ti.API.info("Hi there");
       alert($.label.text);
   }
   
   if (!Ti.App.Properties.hasProperty('testProp'))
   {
   	Ti.API.info('testProp not set');
   	Ti.App.Properties.setBool('testProp', true );
   }
   
   $.win.open();
    This produces the following debug log every time i build and redeply the app: -- Start application log ----------------------------------------------------- [INFO] : Starting [INFO] : testProp not set [INFO] : Finished launching the application [INFO] : Waiting for app to connect to log relay

    Hello, I am able to get persistent date over building app for the following code. 
       var win = Titanium.UI.createWindow({  
       title:'Tab 1',
       backgroundColor:'#fff'
   });
   win.open();
   
   var beforeSetting=Ti.App.Properties.getString('name');
   Ti.App.Properties.setString('name','Appcelerator');
   var afterSetting=Ti.App.Properties.getString('name');
   Ti.API.log(beforeSetting+"  "+afterSetting);
    *Steps:* 1. When I first build and run the app I get the following console log. 
       [INFO] :   null  Appcelerator
    2. When I build and run the app again I get the following console log. It is apparent that date is persistent over build. 
       [INFO] :   Appcelerator  Appcelerator
    3. Now I add property in tiapp.xml as follows. 
       <property name="name" type="string">Titanium</property>
    4. When I first build and run the app I get the following console log. 
       [INFO] :   Titanium  Titanium
    5. When I build and run the app again I get the following console log. It is seen that it is not possible to change property value when set in tiapp.xml. 
       [INFO] :   Titanium  Titanium
    *Please provide us test code and step to reproduce so that we can understand what's happening in your case.* Thanks *Environment*: *Device info:* Nexus7 (android 6.0.1) *Node.js Version:* 0.12.7 *npm Version:* 2.11.3 *Titanium SDKs:* 5.4.0 *Java Development Kit Version:* 1.8.0_73 *Titanium CLI Version:* 5.0.5 *Appcelerator CLI Version:* 5.2.2 *Appcelerator Studio:* 4.5.0

    Hi, I have only seen this on Windows emulator (not tested on real hardware yet). My colleague running the exact same code does not have this issue. We are both running Windows via OSX (Parallells) but I am running Windows 10, he runs Windows 8.1.

    Hello, It's a well-known facts that Appcelerator has issue with Windows 10. Make sure you followed the guide here http://docs.appcelerator.com/platform/latest/#!/guide/Installing_the_Windows_Phone_SDK and followed the compatibility and download section on Windows OS. "Windows 10 requires Developer mode to be enabled to build ws-local applications. This can be set in Settings > Update & Security > For developers." Regards, Sharif.
  6. Jonas Bjurhult 2016-04-21

    I followed everything on the guide as far as I can see and the Developer Mode is enabled. Are the problems with Windows 10 documented somewhere?
  7. Jonas Bjurhult 2016-04-27

    I have the same behaviour on Windows 8.1. It looks like the app is first deleted as it disappears momentarily from the app list, before being installed again. Maybe this could be the reason?
