Bug with actionURL and loadScreen

[fatzopilot]

I am trying to load a screen from a custom servlet like this:

RPCRequest req = new RPCRequest();
req.setActionURL("/screen/loader");
RPCManager.loadScreen("Portal", new LoadScreenCallback() {
@Override
public void execute() {
...
}
}, globalIds, req);

This is the output of the debug console for this request:

{
    "actionURL":"http://localhost:8080/product/gwt/com.aCompany.Main/sc/screenLoader", 
    "showPrompt":false, 
    "transport":"xmlHttpRequest", 
    "useSimpleHttp":true, 
    "promptStyle":"cursor", 
    "params":{
        "screenName":"Portal", 
        "locale":{
            "actionURL":"/screen/loader"
        }
    }
}

It seems, changing the action URL fails, it did not change at all. For strange reasons, an actionURL parameter is part of the locale instead.

Another example where I added an additional parameter to the request:

{
    "actionURL":"http://localhost:8080/product/gwt/com.aCompany.Main/sc/screenLoader", 
    "showPrompt":false, 
    "transport":"xmlHttpRequest", 
    "useSimpleHttp":true, 
    "promptStyle":"cursor", 
    "params":{
        "screenName":"Portal", 
        "locale":{
            "params":{
                "someParam":"hola"
            }, 
            "actionURL":"/screen/loader"
        }
    }
}

What's in your parameter "req"? That seems to be where the weirdly nested params would be coming from.

[fatzopilot]

Well, the second (and last) debug output was just meant to bring some more clarity on what happens.

RPCRequest req = new RPCRequest();

// HashMap params = new HashMap();
// params.put("someParam", "hola");
// req.setParams(params);
req.setActionURL("/screen/loader");

The commented code generated the first debug output posted here, the uncommented version the second.

Ah. We see what the problem is, should be fixed shortly.

We've made a change which should address this issue. Can you please re test against the next nightly build (dated May 15)
If the issue persists let us know

Sorry, no changes in the request (the error is still there).

We just re-tested against the May 16th build - looks like the fix may have missed the May 15th cut off time.
Could you try that build (and be sure to clear your cache / recompile and check the version information reported by the build if you do see the problem).

If it persists we may need to see a test case

OK, so now the actionURL works correctly, the "screenName" parameter is forwarded correctly, but if additional parameters are specified, they are omitted (cf. my post of 10th May 2013 08:46).

We've found the culprit for this and made a change to address it. Please try the next nightly build dated May 25 or above
