eval() does not seem to work anymore.
I do a application.showFormInDialog where the formname is
eval('xxxx'+variableString)
```In RC4 this doesn't work anymore. The dialog isn't shown
Paul
eval works, as far as I see it. The problem lies somewhere in the handling of strings. I even get an error when I do this
var aString = 'hello'
if (!hello)

if (!hello)
Mmm, could be… I do not see any errors apprear anywhere. Just that my Dialog doesn’t show and that if I remove the evel() by the form.xxxxx, then it does work
Paul
i fixed the if(stringHello)
but that eval is that working or not?
(a bit confused with the postings)
Well, id I have the following code:
application.showFormInDialog(eval('forms.AE_'+form),p_x,p_y,p_width,p_height,i18n.getI18NMessage('kydome.form.ae_'+form));
``` it doesn't work. If I take out the eval() part, it does work properly
application.showFormInDialog(forms.AE_translation,p_x,p_y,p_width,p_height,i18n.getI18NMessage(‘kydome.form.ae_’+form));
If I do application.output(form) in the first scenario, the output is
> translations
which makes me believe that it should work.
Now, maybe if there is a problem with the Strings, this is one and the same issue, but I cannot tell that. i'm not getting any errormessage.

please update youre js.jar from this url:
http://downloads.servoy.com/beta/22x_product/js.jar
should fix a few problems
I use eval for my navigation (method name is stored in a table). I have no issues there. I think the problems come from doing string+string. I will test the js.jar…
Noop, this new jar doesn’t solve my eval issue
BTW: I realize now I can do forms[‘AE_’+form] and do not have to use eval, but that is besides the point…
Another thing: anyone experiencing a drastisch performance downgrade with RC4? with me, everything has become sluggish..
Paul
should fix a few problems
does fix a few problems, especially the wrapper errors that I described in another thread.
does not fix the Array problems (.toString is still using )
[enh]-columns/elements in tableview/portal only do resize the width if anchors on both sides are used
What exactly is the enhancement in this? So far, I cannot think of anything.. (just currious here…)
If you have a portal where the anchors are not set and the portal is on a form with is part of a module and you view the form in your main solution, the area on the right of the shown records shows in white (the columns shown do not occupy the entire portal space). If you have the module open in Developer is shows as the default backgroundcolor.

There have been requests (including my own) that in a TABLE view there is a way of not expanding all fields (when setting the horizontal scrollbar to never). For example, in some table views I have a simple checkbox. I don’t want that checkbox to grow anywhere, but the other fields. The same goes for buttons in table view or date fields (that always have the same content length). So now, if you don’t anchor a checkbox left AND right, it doesn’t grow.
I think this is quite an improvement!
Get it, yes, that’s a good improvement. Worth the work of setting the anchors everywhere… ![:lol:]( "Laughing")
eval should be fixed now in this version:
http://downloads.servoy.com/beta/22x_product/js.jar
about the array’s
yes all arrays should be the same now so the to string of javascript or java arrays should behave and display the same so with the [10,10,10]
When do you need it without the brackets? Because a toString impl is just what it is a toString (mostly for debugging).
Hi Johan,
That does seem to solve the problem with eval ( )
What actually caused the problem ?
Thanks
Harry
the new internal javascript string handling.
If somebody could test this with some reports/large concatting of strings. Now this should be really speeded up.
It seems that 2.2rc4 handles Anchors different. I use (for example) a tableview form in a tabpanel, and had to change the Anchors from the fields to ‘none’ to show a dynamic window again.
Before the update I only had to set the tabpanel anchors…
Good thing in this beta is, that it handles images in a tableview much better!
As for as my opinion, this is an improvement, not a bad bug ![:wink:]( "Wink")
