BlackBerry WebWorks Contributions

Hi everyone

I have been trying to deploy my own webworks extension on BB10 to call  "navigator_set_orientation()"  , which is a native API. But when I deploy the application which uses this extension, the freezes on the blackberry page at the start. However, when I remove "navigator_set_orientation()" from my native code, everything works fine.

I tried a pure native app with  "navigator_set_orientation()"  being used and it worked fine.

I also checked the bar-descriptor.xml(from the pure native app) and blackberry-tablet.xml (hybrid app) I saw that their <action> tag is different. In the first case it was

<action system="true">run-native<action>

 and for the second case it was 

<action>access-internet<action>

This made me think maybe we are not allowed to access some native APIs from webworks extensions. 

I was wondering if any of you experts have more knowledge about this?

Thanks

I finally found the solution to my own issue

I forgot to add 

bps_initialize(); and 

bps_shutdown();

and I had to add the bps library to the QCC Linker Libraries then everything worked fine. (by right clicking on the project properties>C/C++ Build>Settings >QCC Linker add bps to Libraries section)
