Adding code to my AppDelegate / AppController

Question

I'm trying to add code to my AppDelegate. But I am not sure where to do it - and how exactly.

I am trying to achieve Deep Linking, so I am trying to add my code, which adds a global variable '

window.customMissionIDOverride = 'MI-xxxx-3xxx';

(which I'm planning to overwrite with a URL parameter, derived from an URL like

escape-team://mission/MI-xxxx-3xxx

that the user can access via a QR code) to my AppDelegate.cpp:

// this function will be called when the app is active again
void AppDelegate::onResume()
{
    EventDispatcher::dispatchOnResumeEvent();
}

Unfortunately,

 bool AppDelegate::applicationDidFinishLaunchingWithOptions()

never gets run, also not when I launch my app via the URL (which launches the app, but not AppDelegate::applicationDidFinishLaunchingWithOptions())

I also tried adding

app->se::ScriptEngine::getInstance()->evalString("console.log('didFinishLaunchingWithOptions (AppController.mm)');");
    app->se::ScriptEngine::getInstance()->evalString("window.customMissionIDOverride = 'MI-xxxx-3xxx';");

to my AppController.mm, but here I cannot access app->se...:

This is my AppController.mm:

Any thoughts on this would be fantastic. Thank you!

Update

I think I'm almost there.

I have four files that I'm working with now:

AppController.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@class RootViewController;

@interface AppController : NSObject <UIApplicationDelegate>
{
}

@property(nonatomic, readonly) RootViewController* viewController;

@end

AppController.mm

void AppDelegate::onResume()
{
    EventDispatcher::dispatchOnResumeEvent();
}

Here's what I figured out:

The app gets launched with an argument, and first

NSLog(@"escapeteam: Launch without options");

is run (I see the log). That initiates also the

app

object in the AppController's scope, which is what I want to access.

It does so by instantiating an AppDelegate:

    app = new AppDelegate(bounds.size.width * scale, bounds.size.height * scale);

... however, I fail to add my new function

virtual void setMissionId();

to it, despite declaring it in the .h file and implementing it in the .cpp file:

void AppDelegate::setMissionId()
{
    cocos2d::log("setMissionId###########");
    se::ScriptEngine::getInstance()->evalString("window.customMissionIDOverride = 'MI-xxxx-3xxx';");
    
    
}

– the error I get for

app->setMissionId();

is this:

'UIApplication' does not have a member named 'setMissionId'

... which is, I guess, true - UIApplication doesn't have that method, but I can't access the method I defined in the AppDelegate.

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Here is how you can add application:openURL:options: to your AppDelegate and create a property that can be accessed outside the AppDelegate

First, in your AppDelegate.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface AppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate>

// This instance variable can be accessed publicly
// This example sets photoIndex as a property
// But you can create a property for anything you
// want to access publicly
@property NSString *photoIndex;

@end

Then, your AppDelegate.m looks like this

#import "AppDelegate.h"

@interface AppDelegate ()

@end

@implementation AppDelegate


- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
    // Override point for customization after application launch.
    return YES;
}


#pragma mark - UISceneSession lifecycle


- (UISceneConfiguration *)application:(UIApplication *)application
configurationForConnectingSceneSession:(UISceneSession *)connectingSceneSession
                              options:(UISceneConnectionOptions *)options {
    // Called when a new scene session is being created.
    // Use this method to select a configuration to create the new scene with.
    return [[UISceneConfiguration alloc] initWithName:@"Default Configuration"
                                          sessionRole:connectingSceneSession.role];
}


- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application
didDiscardSceneSessions:(NSSet<UISceneSession *> *)sceneSessions {
    
}

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)app
            openURL:(NSURL *)url
            options:(NSDictionary<UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey,id> *)options {
    
    id sendingAppID
    = [options objectForKey: UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsSourceApplicationKey];
    
    if (sendingAppID) {
        NSLog(@"source application = %@", sendingAppID);
    }
    
    NSURLComponents *components
    = [[NSURLComponents alloc] initWithURL: url resolvingAgainstBaseURL: YES];
    
    NSString *albumPath = components.path;
    
    NSArray *params = components.queryItems;
    
    if (!components && !albumPath && !params) {
        NSLog(@"Invalid URL or album path missing");
        return NO;
    }
    
    NSUInteger photoIndex = [params indexOfObjectPassingTest:^BOOL(id  _Nonnull obj, NSUInteger idx, BOOL * _Nonnull stop) {
        NSURLQueryItem *queryItem = (NSURLQueryItem*) obj;
        return [queryItem.name isEqual: @"index"];
    }];
    
    if (photoIndex != NSNotFound) {
        
        NSURLQueryItem *queryItem = [params objectAtIndex: photoIndex];
        self.photoIndex = queryItem.value;
        
        NSLog(@"albumPath = %@", albumPath);
        NSLog(@"photoIndex = %@", self.photoIndex);
        return YES;
        
    }
    
    NSLog(@"Photo index missing");
    return NO;
}

@end

This is how you can then access the instance variable from the AppDelegate

// You need to have this import at the top of your file 
// before using the below code
#import "AppDelegate.h"

// Then in some function
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate*)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];

// Do what you want with the variable
NSLog(@"%@", appDelegate.photoIndex);
