Servoy 5.2+ and databroadcast

Classic Servoy

I noticed today that databroadcast was broken in Servoy 5.2 final.
Looking at the commit comments on the sources since then, I found out that you had been working on it, following case #295204: “DataBroadcasting does not work”

So I wanted to try with the latests svn sources for the 5.2 branch, and first got all sorts of problem because although the build version had been updated to 998, the targets didn’t contain the j2db_documentation_5.2.0.998.jar and j2db_server_5.2.0.998.jar, so I managed to had these (downloading them from the build server).

I could see that databroadcast was fixed for a simple solution, but it was not the case for one of our more complex solution…
After some difficult time digging into what could be different between our sample case and our real life solution, we found out that a call to databaseManager.switchServer() was the culprit: after that no data broadcast is happening.

Case submitted #314394

As an aside, could you also update the target on the SVN sources of branch 5.2?
Thanks,

the target doesnt contain those files. (target only points to directories with plugins, if those plugins are changing then you have to refresh it)
To refresh them in you Eclipse environment yourself the best is i think, is to open the target file and then press the link “set as target” again. This will refresh it all.

Right, that’s what I forgot to do. Thanks Johan!
