Change to UIWindowScene etc. ...?

[peteatjuce]

Hi JUCE devs,

Are there plans for JUCE 9 to move from old, deprecated iOS app / Window management approaches e.g. the deprecated:

- (void) applicationDidFinishLaunching: (UIApplication*) application

To new approaches using UIScene, UIWindowScene, UIWindowSceneDelegate etc. e.g.:

- (UISceneConfiguration *)application:(UIApplication *)application configurationForConnectingSceneSession:(UISceneSession *)connectingSceneSession options:(UISceneConnectionOptions *)options

My specific use case: I’m struggling to get a CarPlay target working in my JUCE-based iOS app - the CarPlay system seems to require Scene support.

Hi @reuk I’ve actually implemented a minor change (see below) to the JUCE codebase, which puts the UIScheme implementation under JUCE control, which is I guess where we’d all like it My motivation for doing the work below, was just in case that resolved my issue - but it didn’t. That means that I’m pretty certain that the issue in question, somehow, is in my own code. I just can’t figure it out. It is just a real stinker - but that is my problem! Note: app initialisation is move…

Best wishes, Pete

That was recently added on the develop branch:

UIViewComponentPeer: Adopt the UIScene lifecycle on iOS 13+
