    Getting device screen resolution

    Hello,
    I am trying to obtain the resolution of the device. There was a thread some time ago mentioning that you can do this with application:getHardwareWidth() and application:getHardwareHeight(), however these give me the compiler error "attempt to call method 'getHardwareWidth' (a nil value)". Is there any way to determine the screen resolution of the device?
    Thank you.

      @cstogian Check the Gideros Reference Manual here: http://www.giderosmobile.com/documentation/reference_manual.html#Application:getLogicalWidth

      also if you are lazy enuf, you can check this :)
       
print( " Logical Width ".. application:getLogicalWidth() )
print( " Logical Height ".. application:getLogicalHeight() )
print( " Device Width ".. application:getDeviceWidth() )
print( " Device Height ".. application:getDeviceHeight() )
print( " Application Dimensions ".. application:getContentWidth() .."x".. application:getContentHeight() .." px" )

      Thanks, getDeviceWidth and getDeviceHeight are what I need. That thread with getHardwareWidth threw me off the track.
