Adding images to appcache

[wi3dzmin]

Hi

I'm trying to build my Sencha Touch 2.1 application for production environment. I want to add some images to application cache because I would like my application to work offline.

So, I'm adding desired image file to app.json file:

"appCache": {        /**
         * List of items in the CACHE MANIFEST section
         */
        "cache": [
            "index.html",
            "config.json",
            "./resources/images/close-icon.png"
        ],
        /**
         * List of items in the NETWORK section
         */
        "network": [
            "*"
        ],
        /**
         * List of items in the FALLBACK section
         */
        "fallback": []
    }

Unfortunately when I try to build my application, I get following error:

[INF]           Generated app.json
[INF]           Embedded microloader into index.html
[INF]           Generating appcache

It happens every time I try to add some not js/json file to appCache.
Why? How can I fix this?

I'm using sencha cmd 3.0.0.250

Thank!

Currently Sencha Cmd doesn't support it via app.json but we will be adding support in a coming version.

I am using SenchaCmd-3.1.1.274-windows.exe and cannot build with image files in the appcache - the checksum creation routine fails with most .JPG and .PNG files and some .bmp files.

But it all worked on a previous version about one year ago!

As offline working seems so essential for many HTML5 apps, I am puzzled as to what is happening.

Please could anyone from Sencha let me know when this will be available.

Many thanks.
