Hello.
Situation: i am developing an app, which manages HomeKit accessories. For example i do that:
1. Accessory is power on, and i see it via app. Also in foreground mode HMAccessoryDelegate method:
func accessoryDidUpdateReachability(HMAccessory)works fine and i can handle status of my accessory.
2. I switch app to background mode.
3. I turn off accessory (i mean completely power off) so it must be unreachable.
4. I switch app to foreground mode, but accessory is still reachable.
method func accessoryDidUpdateReachability(HMAccessory) — not called.
value accessory.isReachable not updated.
Example of code when i go to foreground:
func applicationDidBecomeActive(_ application: UIApplication) {
if let home = HomeStore.sharedStore.home {
for accessory in home.accessories {
print(accessory.isReachable) //not updated
for service in accessory.services {
for characteristic in service.characteristics {
characteristic.readValue { (error) in //updated
if error == nil {
let notification = Notification(name: Notification.Name(rawValue: "UpdatedCharacteristic"))
NotificationCenter.default.post(notification)
}
}
}
}
}
}
}Question: how to update isReachable values of accessories, when i come back from background mode to foreground?
Ivan.
