Black screen for several seconds during startup

A colleague of mine tried to build the JavaFXPorts application of mine on his machine. The good thing is: after some minor updates to the forceLinkClasses part in the build.gradle file, it worked. But...

While we can see one of the the white Default*.png images briefly, we are confronted with a black screen for about 5 seconds.

On the console, he could see the following output (amongst others):

The delay seems to happen after the RoboVM warnings.

Does any one have any idea, what the cause for this might be?

Thanks and regards, Daniel

PS: I needed to ask this, because he has no account on StackOverflow... So there might be some roundtrip time, if I need to ask him to test again.

Solution

  • Thanks to @JoséPereda we found the issue: It was the iPhone used for the test. This is an older phone often used for developing. And obviously, it is in a "near-dead" state.

    After we switched to another phone (iPhone 6S of another colleague :-D ) the application behaved like expected: being lightning fast during the test.
