question about DAtasplitCriteria()

[Isomorphic]

Thanks for the details.

On the first issue, we've fixed the message that we show at this time, so it includes the right operator (it was including the top-level op rather than the one from the Criterion).

On the second issue, when converting to simple-criteria, we actually allow a number of operators: equals/iEquals, iContains and startsWith. These essentially map to/imply a textMatchStyle, and iContains is the default for text fields. The logic that does this has been around for quite a while but we're having a discussion about tightening it up/doc-ing it more clearly and we'll update here when we have more information.

Hello, please try this code in the showcase https://www-demos.smartclient.com/sm...&skin=Twilight

var c = {
        _constructor:"AdvancedCriteria",
        operator:"and",
        criteria:[
            {
                fieldName:"countryName",
                operator:"iContains",
                value:"a"
            },
            {
                fieldName:"population",
                operator:"lessThan",
                value:100000
            }
        ]
    };

isc.logEcho(worldDS.splitCriteria(c, ["population"]))

I get this WARN:

*17:18:39.020:MUP0:WARN:Log:splitCriteria: advanced criteria second-level operator:and for field:population cannot be converted to simple criteria format

I get that the population criterion can't be converted to simple criteria, and I must use true as the 3rd argument of splitCriteria, but that "second-level operator:and" part of the message doesn't seem right in this case.

Then please try this test case:

var c = {
        _constructor:"AdvancedCriteria",
        operator:"and",
        criteria:[
            {
                fieldName:"countryCode",
                operator:"equals",
                value:"DO"
            },
            {
                fieldName:"countryName",
                operator:"iContains",
                value:"a"
            }
        ]
    };

isc.logEcho(worldDS.splitCriteria(c, ["countryName"]));

this time I get this result:

*17:22:59.037:MUP7:WARN:Log:{countryName: "a"}

so I get a simple criteria, without a warning, which doesn't seem right, as that criterion isn't really convertible to simple criteria. Is it expected?

Please show your full sample code and we'll take a look - there could be spelling and other mistakes that we can't know about until we see the code.

[claudiobosticco]

Hello Isomorphic, yes worldDS from the showcase.

Sorry for the invalid date, but actually the behaviour is the same if you remove that criterion altogether

[Isomorphic]

Is this targeted at our sample worldDS? That date-string isn't valid for a date field.

Can you show sample code?

[claudiobosticco]

Hi Blama thanks for the heads up, but the result is the same, I don't think it's a required attribute.

[Blama]

claudiobosticco you wrote _constructor:"AdavancedCriteria", which has a typo two times.

Best regards
Blama

sorry for the mispelled title, should be "questions about DataSource.splitCriteria()"

Hello, if I define an AdvancedCriteria like this:

var c = {
        _constructor:"AdvancedCriteria",
        operator:"and",
        criteria:[
            {
                fieldName:"countryName",
                operator:"iContains",
                value:"a"
            },
            {
                fieldName:"population",
                operator:"lessThan",
                value:100000
            },
            {
                fieldName:"independence",
                operator:"greaterThan",
                value:"1500-08-02"
            }
        ]
    };

and than call

worldDS.splitCriteria(c, ["population"]);

I get this warning:

*11:55:20.994:XRP0:WARN:Log:splitCriteria: advanced criteria second-level operator:and for field:population cannot be converted to simple criteria format

that "second-level operator:and" part of the message doesn't seem right in this case.

Second question. If I define another criteria:

var c = {
        _constructor:"AdvancedCriteria",
        operator:"and",
        criteria:[
            {
                fieldName:"countryCode",
                operator:"equals",
                value:"DO"
            },
            {
                fieldName:"countryName",
                operator:"iContains",
                value:"a"
            }
        ]
    };

and then call

worldDS.splitCriteria(c, ["countryName"]);

I get no warning, but a simple criteria like this:

{countryName: 'a'}

Without a warning...this doesn't seem right. Is it expected?
