params getting corrupted

  • 1.  params getting corrupted

    Posted 11-08-2024 20:36

    I have some struct tables, and my code is only reading from them.  

    At most, I have some code that hides them from streaming.

    However, something is changing them from:

    <param access="1" constrainttype="STRUCT" name="Team 1 Info" oid="team1.info" stream="false" templateoid="teamInfo.template" type="STRUCT" widget="table">

    to:  <param base="teamInfo.template" name="Team 1 Info" oid="team1.info" stream="false">

    I promise I didn't write the "base" attribute

    Also, the structs that are empty get deleted.  I used to have 8, now I have 4.

    I think this has happened twice.

    I'm adding in the template, in case it helps.

    <param access="1" constrainttype="STRUCT" name="Team Template" oid="teamInfo.template" stream="false" type="STRUCT" widget="table">
   <value>
      <subparam access="1" maxlength="0" name="Application Color" stream="false" suboid="applicationColor" type="STRING" value="#E40F0F" widget="color-picker"/>

    As I work on this, Im frequently looking at similar dashboards, could there be some cross-contamination?

    Ok, I did some more research.  I can make this consistently when I try to params.setValue in one of those Structs.

    However, when I first wrote this, I didn't have any code that wrote to those structs at the time, I was just editing view params at that time.

    Here's a sample struct pre-bug:

    Here's the offending code:

    function clearTeamRotations() {

   for (var i = 0; i < 12; i++) {
      for (var j = 0; j < 16; j++) { 
         params.setValue('team' + i + '.info.rotEvt' + j, 0, -1);  
      }   
   }
}

function updateTeamRotations() {
   
   clearTeamRotations();

   // i is the rotation number in this session
   for (var i = 0; i < 8; i++) {

      var vaultTeam = params.getValue('womensSession1.'+ i +'.vaultSelector', 0);
      var barsTeam = params.getValue('womensSession1.'+ i +'.barsSelector', 0);
      var beamTeam = params.getValue('womensSession1.'+ i +'.beamSelector', 0);
      var floorTeam = params.getValue('womensSession1.'+ i +'.floorSelector', 0);

      // lookup the the team doing each event and set it's ith rotation to that event 

      if (floorTeam != -1) {
         params.setValue('team'+ floorTeam +'.info.rotEvt' + i, 0, 4);
      }

      if (beamTeam != -1) {
         params.setValue('team'+ beamTeam +'.info.rotEvt' + i, 0, 3);
      }

      if (barsTeam != -1) {
         params.setValue('team'+ barsTeam +'.info.rotEvt' + i, 0, 2);
      }

      if (vaultTeam != -1) {
         params.setValue('team'+ vaultTeam +'.info.rotEvt' + i, 0, 1);
      }
   }
}

    Update:  the code is irrelevant, even if I change a view param, this breaks

    Hi David

    This definitely appears to be a bug in the parameter serialization code for structs - I will pass it along to the DashBoard dev team for evaluation.  In the meantime, you can work around it by changing your parameter "team0.info" from STRUCT to STRUCT_ARRAY.  Doing this, the XML serialization for the parameter appears to be working as expected.

    For further info, If I change these individual structs to a struct array, the problem goes away.  Will this be a problem for datalinq?  I initially went with individual structs because they would always be present when I need to clear the info.

    How does datalinq handle dynamic params?

    DataLinq should handle the parameters just fine but it will change the OIDs it receives.  Instead of getting "team0.info.name" the parameter will be listed as "team0.info.0.name"

    Is there any gotchas for datalinq for this?  I feel like if I use params.resetAllValues, it would wipe out the array and then what happens in datalinq?
