mobile_house_arrest[162] <Error>: Max open files: 78

Getting Started Newbie Questions

Exploring Corona SDK for future development.  Working through a test project and encountered:

mobile_house_arrest[162] <Error>: Max open files: 78

in the IPod Touch console.  Runs in the simulator.

Anybody have thoughts on this?

Thanks,

Hi @Scot,

Do you get any errors in the Simulator console/Terminal? Have you tried to deploy the project to an actual device?

Thanks,

Hi Brent,

Thanks for your reply.

The error message was found in the iPod Touch console log inside Xcode.  The it ran just fine in the simulator.  Eventually the iPod locked up completely and I did a hard boot.  It has been working since.  Just before the crash I was working with native buttons, keyboard, and Corona SDK events to establish performance metrics to compare with the Phonegap platform we’ve been using.  Obviously there was no contest. I was also running Throne Wars and Fun Run intermittently to get a handle on the capabilities of the interface and architecture for our educational research projects.

I’m a bit worried that there is some sort of memory leak or the IOS garbage collector doesn’t reallocate memory after a series of rapid replacements of the app on the device.
