How can I stop all process if network connectivity lost in Smartface.io

Question

I'm using

function Global_Events_OnStart(e) {
    isNetworkUp = (Device.connectionType == 0);
}

to detect if network connected. At Home Screen's onShow event which hosts code to run Webclients:

function pgHome_Self_OnShow() {
    if (isNetworkUp) {
       wcPersonList.run(true);  // async run
       wcImages.run(true);
    }else{
        Dialogs.dlConnectionWarning.show();
    }
}

Is this ok? Or should I add additional controls to Global Application.onError event?

With using isNetworkUp control you can use your own Error Dialog.

If you don't write any codeLines to detect that network is up or down,

It triggers Global_Events_OnError .

function Global_Events_OnError(e) {
    switch (e.type) {
    case "Server Error":
    case "Size Overflow":
        alert(lang.networkError);
        break;
    default:
        SES.Analytics.eventLog("error", JSON.stringify(e));
        //change the following code for desired generic error messsage
        alert({
            title : lang.applicationError,
            message : e.message + "\n\n*" + e.sourceURL + "\n*" + e.line + "\n*" + e.stack
        });
        break;
    }
}

Global_Events_OnError is predefined function to detect any kind of error in your project.
