One of the features of the debugger is it allows me to select any expression in the currently running method, including any dataproviders, and right-click and select Display or Inspect and it will evaluate the expression and show me the result.
But when debugging a calc this feature doesn’t work for dataproviders - it says that the expression is ‘undefined’.
Is there any way around this? It would be very helpful if it worked the same as it does in form and global methods.
Thanks.
there shouldn’t be any difference, debugging a normal method or a calculation is the same thing (from the debuggers perspective)
can you create a case and describe it a bit? then we will look at this.
Happy New Year Johan and thanks for looking into this.
I just tested this using the most simple app you can imagine and I got the same behavior so I don’t think this is related to my app, so perhaps it’s something related to my environment. I had my employee check it on his system and it was happening for him too. I have attached a screenshot of the error message I get when I hover over a dataprovider “age” from the same table “am_table” as the calc itself. Yet the calc works and if I do application.output(age) I get the correct output.
My environment is:
5.2.4 on WInXP
MySQL 5.1.4
java 1.6.0_16
Any ideas?
Thanks.
