Question about java console error

Classic Servoy

Hi,

When connecting to a solution through a smart client launcher we get the following error in the java console:

However, connecting to the solution using developer shows no errors or warnings. Does anyone know what could be triggering this error in the java console?
Thanks,

It looks as though you are referencing to forms as a variable without initializing it.

Maybe you made a mistake in your syntax somewhere like ‘forms formname’ instead of ‘forms.formname’?

Yep, I think it was due to a syntax error. I found 1 reference to forms[theForm] where it was possible that theForm variable was not defined. I wonder how the java console catches that.
