SmartGWT.mobile - Error calling method on NPObject with

[bda@celerity.be]

Receiving this error with smartgwt.mobile builds 2012-12-20 and 2012-12-21 ? No idea what is happening. No such error with builds 2012-12-19 and before. Any help please?

This happens after a simple fetchData on a TableView() that used to work before.

We really can't tell anything from this. It appears to be a JavaScript error, it may not be from SmartGWT.mobile at all. Try to gather more information, possibly by using browser tools (f12).

[bda@celerity.be]

I am still blocked by this issue, was expecting "miracle" resolution with new builds but no, still there. I cannot see anything abnormal using browser tool.

When I run with Firefox (instead of Chrome) I have a different stack trace which touches some smartgwt code this time, maybe this can provide more info:

Made some more tests that confirm this problem is caused by the presence of Date type field in the .ds.xml. If I remove date field from my ds, then everything goes well.
Note that strangely enough, this is happening only in dev mode.

I hope this will help you to spot the root cause.

Thanks for helping with this, I really would like to upgrade to last mobile version to incorporate other bug fixes/enhancements related to my other recent posts.

Ben.

I don't know if this can help, but if I change the type of the field to text, and if I look at the string that is returned in this case (while the field remains a DATE field in the DB), I get this:

2013-02-28T23:00:00

which looks a strange format to me, especially the 23:00:00 since the DB does not contain time for this field only date (it is a DATE not a DATETIME).

[Isomorphic]

Leave the field as type "date". The behavior when you've got an underlying date value but you declare type "text" is undefined.

Can you show a sample of the server response that leads to this error?

Have you tried the latest nightly of SGWT.mobile combined with the latest SGWT desktop build? Corresponding changes were made to each to fix some edge cases in communicating dates.

[bda@celerity.be]

Just tested with 2012-12-24 SWGT/SGWT.mob, still the same.

Of course I would like to leave the type as date, but the only way at the moment to make recent builds working is to replace the "date" type in my .ds.xml by "text" and parse the string back to a Date in my Java code.

What do you mean by a sample of the server response? How do I capture that ?

[Isomorphic]

Use Firebug or any similar tool to see what the server is sending back.

[bda@celerity.be]

So I have installed Firebug. Here are some logs but I don't know what server response you are expecting.

The RestHandler Post/Respons related to the ds containing the Date field:

[sjivan]

Based on the stacktrace, you should be able to narrow down the issue by setting a breakpoint at com.smartgwt.mobile.client.util.DateUtil.parseInput(..) or SimpleType.java:161 to see what input data is causing the subsequent exception.

[bda@celerity.be]

Ok, based on the comment of Sjivan, I have included all java files of smartgwt-mobile.jar inside my project in order to be able to set a breakpoint.

the exception is generated by the command (SimpleType:161):
return DateUtil.parseInput(text);
where text is "2013-03-01"

I cannot set a breakpoint deeper (in parseInput), but if you simply execute the command DateUtil.parseInput("2013-03-01") in any smartgwt-mobile project you should hopefully get the error.

Thanks.

Since this problem was not there in version 2012-12-19 and before, I compared the DateUtil and SimpleType classes between 2012-12-19 and 2012-12-24 and there is a difference:

In 2012-12-19 DateUtil did not contain the method

    public static native LogicalDate parseInput(String dateString) /*-{
        if (null == dateString) return null;
        var parts = (dateString.@java.lang.String::trim()()).split(/\s*[-. ]\s*(?:)/);
        if (null == parts || 3 != parts.length) return null;
        var year = parseInt(parts[0], 10),
            month = parseInt(parts[1], 10),
            date = parseInt(parts[2], 10);
        if (isNaN(year) || isNaN(month) || isNaN(date)) return null;
        month = Math.max(0, Math.min(month - 1, 11));
        date = Math.max(1, Math.min(date, 31));
        return @com.smartgwt.mobile.client.util.LogicalDate::new(III)(year, month, date);
    }-*/;

And dateType in SimpleType was initialized a different way.


Difficult to narrow down more than that. Hope this will help.

In the meantime I have found another workaround than type="text". Declaring the field in the ds as type="datetime" solves the issue. Yet the field is a Date not a DATETIME in the DB.

[bda@celerity.be]

Any feedback on this ? Is declaring the SQL DATE field as datetime type in ds.xml the expected solution, I suppose no ?

Thanks, Ben.

[Isomorphic]

We can't reproduce this, but we did switch the implementation of the date parsing to pure Java (it didn't need to be in JavaScript any more as of other recent changes), so you should be able to get a more exact error message even if you're unfamiliar with JS debug tools.

[bda@celerity.be]

No error anymore. Thanks!
