[icf-dev] Problems With Dynamics Tutorial.

Posted by LegacyUser on 07-Jun-2003 13:10

Progress 91D05

POSSE ICF 3.0 Baseline 3

Windows XP professional.

I build the system using pbuild, and it appeared to run to completion

without error, in both GUI and TTY modes.

Now I am trying to follow the tutorial in "Getting Started With Progress

Dynamics". I have got as far as section 2.1.16 (pages 2-45 to 2-52)

"Building a Customer Maintenance Folder Window". After a couple of false

starts I have succeeded in building the container. Sort of. Everything

goes as expected until step 10 (page 2-48). After I put the Orderfullo

on the page the following message appears:

"You have replaced an object with an object of a different type. This

may cause potential loss of attribute values if the attribute values of

the old object are not supported by the new object.

Possible invalid attributes will only be detected when the container is

saved."

However when I save the container, there is no error message, so I am

assuming that all is OK. Same thing happens with orderlinfullo.

I continue to the end of the section with no further problems.

But big problems when I try to run it, by clicking the run button in the

Build Container Tool Bar. I get a long series of errors as follows:

User defined function getQueryPosition invoked dynamically but could not

be found(5639). Help tells me this is in initializeObjetc adm2/datavis.p

line 3218.

User defined function columnStringValue invoked dynamically but could

not be found (5639). Help tells me this is in getCombo adm2/combo.p line

3571

Query-Prpepare requires that SET-BUFFERS has been used to assign buffers

to query(2322). Help tells me this is in populate Combos adm2/lookupqp.p

line 1052. (this error occurs twice)

Invalid widget-handle(3135). populatCombos adm2/lookupqp.p line 1074

Cannot access Data-Type attribute becasue widget does not exist(3140)

adm2/lookupqp.p line 1074.

Eventually the window is displayed, but no customer record is displayed,

and the navigation buttons are all disabled.

I have set the propath as suggested by Tom Nordhougen and it appears to

be free of typos, and all the libraries, and directories referenced do

exist in the locations specified. All the libraries in the directory are

included in the propath.

I have not done an update from CVS for about 10 days.

Any guidance anyone has as what is has come adrift, and how I might go

about fixing it will be most gratefully received.

I am using Progress 9.1D06. I had the same experience with the error

message upon adding the SDO. However, I did not experience the issues when

running the application. Did you try to run the browser window or the

customer maintenance window? If you run the customer maintenance window

directly it will not get the customer number passed.

William, Harvey,

The message that you get when you place your DynamicSDO onto your container

is not an error message - it is expected functionality. The template that

you are using has a staticSDO placeholder but you are replacing it with a

DynamicSDO. The logic is that if the objectType for the template object

does not match with the object that you are replacing it with - then you

will see the message. because Dynamic and Static SDO have basically the

same properties and supported links, it is safe to dismiss this message.

If you don't want this message to appear in the future then you should

create a new template with a DynamicSDO placeholder instead of the static

one - but either way it will produce the same results.

The second point that William raised about getting errors relating to

getQueryPosition is because you are running a dependant window directly from

the AppBuilder. A Dependant window relies on the fact that it is being run

from an independent window (which contains the SDO) and a data link being

establish at run time. Set the folderWindowtoLaunch property on the

independent window to the name of your dependant window and everything

should then work.

Regards.

Gary.
