Hi,

I am trying to reduce the warnings showing up in servoy6_rc1 and now am stuck with some hundereds of warning related to Dynamic object property access.
its something like this:-

/**
* @param {String} formName
* @properties={typeid:24,uuid:"85004476-b152-4493-b5ed-ecc0d42f9697"}
*/
function hideBusyProgress(formName)
{
forms[sFrmName].firstName = ...... // am trying to initialize my dataProviders.....
}

warning received for above code:- "The property ptcon_add1 is undefined for the type Form"

I tried working with some JSDoc :wink: but in vain... :( so need some help friends... :)

how do you know it has a firstname?
can't you cast to a superform or something that you know sFrmName has to extend?

else what you can do is:

forms[sFrmName]['firstName'] = ......

After the update my solution based on the latest framework release doesn't work anymore:
  • in the smart client, after the login i could see the next loading bar but it stopped at the beginning
  • in the web client, after the login it seemed all to be freezed and the cpu charge was at 99% for servoy.exe
I've tried to restart but the devoleper itself didn't load...

The only thing I was able to do is return to version 6 beta and re-configure the framework...

Anyone got the same problem?

Try to create stackdumps from the admin page when the cpu is high or when the smartclient seems to be stuck.
Maybe we can see what happens.

It happens also when I open a form in the developer (from another servoy installation...)

I'm a bit scared about doing another update...

We have also found that RC4 will not launch on Win64; Servoy Developer splash freezes. On the Mac, we find it does open, but if you go to CLEAN the projects, it will hang permanently.

Same issue here.

RC4 Developer didn't startup.

I removed the whole workspace directory
Then RC4 is starting in developer.

But when importing a solution, then it hangs again

When using the new CSS styling for odd/even/selected in the Web Client, the table seems to remember which rows you previously selected and then highlights all of them when you re-sort...

Hi
this might be a stupid question, but I am looking at a client's solution that is currently running under Servoy 5.2.6
I am looking at the solution that I have checked out from their SVN repository and trying to fix some of the Warnings & Info's.
If I do things to forms or methods that do not use any Servoy 6 specific code/features to fix them, can I commit those changes back to the SVN for use back in 5.2.6??

Thanks,
Rafi
