when is application background triggered ?

pie

Hi I am trying to trigger event application_background on android gideros player, but it doesn't seem to be working.
Application_suspend works as expected.
I was wondering if it is platform specific or if there is some other reason

Thank you

Thank you, unfortunately that doesn't help.

From the documentation APPLICATION_BACKGROUND should be called after APPLICATION_SUSPEND (which is called for every app suspension like the low battery notification)

https://wiki.giderosmobile.com/index.php/Event.APPLICATION_BACKGROUND
https://wiki.giderosmobile.com/index.php/Event.APPLICATION_SUSPEND

but if I put this in my main lua and run it in my gideros player, when I press the home button I only get "suspend" (if I try listening to APPLICATION_BACKGROUND alone it doesn't work either)

stage:addEventListener(Event.APPLICATION_SUSPEND, function(event) print("EVENT SUSPEND")   end)     stage:addEventListener(Event.APPLICATION_BACKGROUND, function(event) print("EVENT BACKGROUND")   end)
