Examples

Using

Applications in background state

Apple applications can be sent to the background. When this happens your application is notified by the applicationDidEnterBackground callback. Applications go into background state before being suspended.

Applications can be sent to the background or suspended at any time. We recommend that your Diffusion™ Cloud app saves its state – in particular, any topic subscriptions – as this state changes.

When your Diffusion Cloud app is sent to the background, we recommend the client closes its session with Diffusion Cloud . When the Diffusion Cloud app returns to the foreground, it can open a new client session with Diffusion Cloud and use the saved state to restore topic subscriptions.

For more information, see the Apple App Life Cycle documentation and Strategies for Handling App State Transitions.

Regular expressions

The Apple client uses a different regular expression engine to Diffusion Cloud . Some regular expressions in topic selectors are evaluated on the client and others on Diffusion Cloud . It is possible that topic selectors that include complex or advanced regular expressions can behave differently on the client and on Diffusion Cloud .

For more information, see Regular expressions.
