IPhone Device Orientation - How Main UI thread is affected?
<p>I am developing a hello world application in iphone OS 6.0. Whenever a screen is rendered, a web service call is made to the server. But, i am making the web service call in the same main thread without starting in a seperate thread. </p>

<p>However, whenever i rotate the device to landscape mode, the web service call is stopped. Again when i rotate the device to portrait mode, web service call is started.</p>

<p>Any idea on why this happens ... Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>EDIT
I tested the application using iOS instruments (Network Monitor). I understand that device orientation did not stop the network operation.</p>
