Android device does restart where I use for(;;)

[stapes]

I have put this into code in a few places. I am basically waiting for the Home Page to load following a log in.

Code: Select all

for(;;)
        	{
        		if(repo.UkCoDocumotiveMobileDocumobileAgile.LogoutInfo.Exists (1000))
	        	{
	        		break ;
	        	}
        	}

This page sometimes works, but often hangs for a while, then restarts the device. When the device starts up again, the application is in the expected state, i.e. the Logout control mentioned here now exists.

Is this something I am causing with Ranorex - especially with this constrict, i.e. for(;;)?

I got rid if all these

Code: Select all

for(;;)

, replacing them with

Code: Select all

while(true)

and the problem has gone away, and the iPad stopped switching off & on at these points.

Maybe iOS does not like what looks like an infinite loop?
