application.getMethodTriggerFormName() not returning correct

Classic Servoy

I have the following test solution setup to demonstrate…

A global method called globals.testGlobal()
Two forms, one called test_form_1 and another called test_form_2.

On test_form_1 I have a method called testMethodForm1() that contains the following code…

forms.test_form_2.testForm2Method();

And on test_form_2 I have the above mentioned method testFrom2Method() which contains the following…

globals.testGlobal();

Inside 'globals.testGlobal()[/i] I have the following…

xx = application.getMethodTriggerFormName();
application.output(xx);

Now if I attach testMethodForm1() to a buttons onAction on test_form_1 the output from application.getMethodTriggerFormName()[/i] in globals.testGlobal() will return test_form_1, rather than test_form_2 which from the documentation I understand it should return as that is the form that called the global method.

hmm, are you sure that this```
forms.test_form_2.testForm2Method();

Ahh…Yes, of course. I guess I am in fact calling the method from ‘test_form_1’, the method just happens to reside on ‘test_form_2’. :oops:
