I have a method that in Servoy Developer version 2.5 works correctly and with version 3.0 build 371 it gives the following error:

org.mozilla.javascript.JavaScriptException: Cycle detected, function buscar\_articulo called 22 times

```auto
//Start a find request
controller.find();
nombre = '%'+globals.gText+'%';
controller.search();

globals.gText = ''

//si no hemos encontrado ningun registro
if ( controller.getMaxRecordIndex()==0 )
{
	controller.loadAllRecords()
}

```

Java version 1.5.0\_08-b3 (Windows XP)

controller.find();  
nombre = ‘%’+globals.gText+‘%’;  
controller.search();

globals.gText = ‘’

//si no hemos encontrado ningun registro  
if ( controller.getMaxRecordIndex()==0 )

Try to use:

```auto
//Start a find request
controller.find();
nombre = '%'+globals.gText+'%';
var found = controller.search();

globals.gText = null

//si no hemos encontrado ningun registro
if ( found == 0 )
{
	controller.loadAllRecords()
}

```

Thanks Nicola but does not work.

The method is related to the event onDataChange. In mode debugger I have seen that it executes the method twice, it does not pay attention to the value that it has var found or in controller.getMaxRecordIndex()==0

The first time gives the following error:

org.mozilla.javascript.JavaScriptException: Cycle detected, function buscar\_articulo called 22 times

the second time:

org.mozilla.javascript.JavaScriptException: Cycle detected, function buscar\_articulo called 23 times

Hi Carles,

Try to execute your method with a button and not related to the onDataChange and see if it works. You probably have some other event related to the form. Maybe is a good idea to build a single form test solution and see if you can reproduce your problem.

Hi Enrico,

With the button it works correctly. But I believe that he is bug, works correctly in record view, list view, but not with table view. I have it in tabpanel that shows one table view.

Felicidades al evangelista.

I think the best thing you can do is to try to isolate it in a microsolution and if reproduceable then post to support at:
