Is there any way your component schema files (.ds.xml under sc/system/schema) are stale?

If not can you show us the server response for the DataSourceLoader servlet loading this DataSource?

Here is the server response.

Code:

{
    ID:"InspectionAgent", 
    serverType:"sql", 
    fields:[
        {
            title:"id", 
            hidden:true, 
            primaryKey:true, 
            name:"id", 
            type:"sequence"
        }, 
        {
            title:"External ID", 
            validator:{
                errorMessage:"External ID must be unique.", 
                type:"isUnique"
            }, 
            width:"150", 
            name:"externalId", 
            length:15, 
            type:"text", 
            required:true
        }, 
        {
            title:"Name", 
            width:"200", 
            name:"name", 
            length:40, 
            type:"text", 
            required:true
        }, 
        {
            title:"Address 1", 
            width:"200", 
            name:"address1", 
            length:40, 
            type:"text", 
            required:true
        }, 
        {
            title:"Address 2", 
            width:"200", 
            name:"address2", 
            length:40, 
            type:"text"
        }, 
        {
            title:"City", 
            width:"200", 
            name:"city", 
            length:40, 
            type:"text", 
            required:true
        }, 
        {
            title:"State", 
            width:"54", 
            name:"state", 
            length:3, 
            type:"text"
        }, 
        {
            title:"Postal Code", 
            width:"110", 
            name:"postCode", 
            length:10, 
            type:"text", 
            required:true
        }, 
        {
            title:"Country", 
            displayField:"CCNT", 
            name:"country", 
            valueField:"CCID", 
            length:3, 
            type:"text", 
            optionDataSource:"IPCNTRY", 
            foreignKey:"IPCNTRY.CCID"
        }, 
        {
            title:"Agent Fee", 
            width:"86", 
            name:"agentFee", 
            length:7, 
            type:"float"
        }, 
        {
            title:"Modified On", 
            hidden:"true", 
            name:"modifiedOn", 
            canEdit:"false", 
            type:"modifierTimestamp"
        }, 
        {
            title:"Modified By", 
            hidden:"true", 
            width:"110", 
            name:"modifiedBy", 
            length:10, 
            canEdit:"false", 
            type:"modifier"
        }
    ], 
    dbName:"iptsfil4", 
    title:"Inspection Agent", 
    pluralTitle:"Inspection Agents", 
    sparseUpdates:true
}

DataSourceField.ds.xml in sc/system/schema does include the following.


<hidden type="boolean" title="Hidden" inapplicable="true" xmlAttribute="true"/>

And the code that is failing iterates through all of the other fields without error until it gets to the modifierTimestamp field.

I think I see the problem. The modifierTimestamp and modifier fields are being automatically tagged as hidden:"true" by the framework. But that should be hidden:true without the quotes.

In my case I don't want them hidden anyway so I've added hidden="false" which gets around the problem.

fyi - I updated to the latest nightly just in case, so the problem exists in SmartClient Version: SC_SNAPSHOT-2012-02-27_v8.2p/PowerEdition Deployment (built 2012-02-27)

Thanks, we see the problem, it will be fixed probably later this week.

In the meantime if you wanted to detect the flag, a direct call to getAttribute() would allow you to check the String value equals("true").
