Strange 'super' field

[levi]

Hi,
SmartClient Version: SC_SNAPSHOT-2010-09-07/EVAL Deployment

after upgrading SmartGWT EE 2.3 to this version,
I got a nullpointer on fieldName.
Inspecting the cause, I now see a strange field when traversing trough all DataSourceFields and also on the FormItem fields on a form via getFields():

This datasource:

<DataSource ID="biSessDTO" dropExtraFields="true"> 
<fields> 
<field name="bis" type="238" javaClass="zzz.dto.bi.biDTO" multiple="true" /> 
<field name="texts" type="372" javaClass="zzz.dto.document.TextDTO" multiple="true" /> 
</fields> 
<serverObject ID="biSessStore" lookupStyle="new" className="zzz.server.stores.bi.biSessStore"/> 
<operationBindings> 
        <binding operationId="IbiOutpost.validatebi" operationType="custom" serverMethod="validatebi"/> 
        <binding operationId="IbiOutpost.cancelbi" operationType="custom" serverMethod="cancelbi"/> 
        <binding operationId="IbiOutpost.generateNewInstance" operationType="fetch" serverMethod="generateNewInstance"/> 
</operationBindings> 
</DataSource>

for (DataSourceField field : ds.getFields()) { 
        String type = field.getAttributeAsString("type"); 
        
        if (type == null) { 
                GWT.log("Field " + field.getName()+" has no type defined!"); 
                SC.logEcho(field.getJsObj()); 
                continue; 
        }

Before the update, I did not have to check on type == null, it never was.

which gives this output:

[20100908 12:46:04] Field null has no type defined! 
[20100908 12:46:04] 12:46:04.066:XRP4:WARN:Log:{ 
billingItems: Obj{name:billingItems}, 
texts: Obj{name:texts}, 
__gwt_ObjectId: 2048}

This field seems unexpected and bizare. What is it?

thanks

Turns out ds.getFields().length is always 1 for all my datasources.
Reverted back to SmartGWT EE 2.3 official release and there the problem doesn't exist (ds.getFields().length > 1).
Same problem with the 08/09/2010 build.

Seems to be fixed in 10/09 build. Thanks.
