i guess if you look into the plugin dir you will see those files as 0 byte files?

Just remove them completely.

[Hans Nieuwenhuis]

You where right Johan,

They where 0 bytes, I removed them and the log entries are gone.

Thanks !!

Is the 5.1 release the next public release or will there be also a 5.0.2 release?

Hello ,

In b3 the saving of the global method info in the valuelist-editor seems to be broken...

Can you confirm this ?

yes in certain situations it behaves strange, i encountered this before, but couldnt reproduce it anymore,
Now i seem to found a situation that the name of the global method will disappear at the moment you save it.

Hi Johan,

Sounds scary , but I think you will find a solution (as always)....

Thanks, Johan !

For now I use the good old text editor on the .val files...

Hi ,

I've noticed that the foundsetUpdater.performUpdate() starts the updating at the selectedIndex of the involved foundset !
Is this by design or belongs it to the same selectedIndex issues I saw in the past days...

For now I issue setSelectedIndex(1) before the performUpdate() and all records in the foundset are nicely updated...

[jcompagner]

thats by design, it does that already for quite some time.

Hello Johan,

As this not to expect behaviour (updating starts at selectedIndex) is not stated in the Servoy documentation I rate it as a bug...

Mail it to Paul for a Wiki update ?

Regards

[jcompagner]

the sample of update method does tell you that already:

//3) safely loop through foundset (starts with selected row)
controller.setSelectedIndex(1)
var count = 0
var fsUpdater = databaseManager.getFoundSetUpdater(foundset)
while(fsUpdater.next())
{
fsUpdater.setColumn('my_flag',count++)
}

will see if i can improve the doc itself a bit.
