Servoy 3.0 Release Candidate 4

Ok. That was it. “Advanced Filter” needed to be chosen, once I found where that was (Editor Menu Bar - “View>Advanced filter”). Now that I have that back, I can keep troubleshooting. Just in case someone has encountered my problems, I describe them briefly.

  1. Running J2SE 1.4.2 on Mac or PC producing a novel of errors in the startup_log.txt, most of which reference errors in something called Catalina, related to apache. This is new for 3.0. All errors in the log disappear if I user J2SE 5.0, but J2SE 5.0 give me other problems, such as…

  2. I use HTML code placed into HTML_AREA fields to do most of my reporting. For the headers of lists in a report, I make a table with a border of 0 and a black background color that contains white text. Under J2SE 14.2_08, everything works nicely, but under J2SE 5.0 the black background does not appear unless I give the table a 1 pixel border, which looks terrible. I submitted a report to Servoy support, but I never heard of any solution. This happens in 2.2.5 and in 3.0.

  3. I am using the dbtreeview bean for navigation in my solution. On startup or after coming out of Layout mode, a method tries to select a particular node by passing

forms.<formname>.elements.<dbtreeview bean element>.selectionPath = someArrayOfPKs

which results in

WrappedException of org.mozilla.javascript.JavaScriptException: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String

This is what I am working on now, and I am trying to see if there might be something wrong with the arrayed values I am passing. It doesn’t look like it, and this error does not always occur. This is new in 3.0.
