Cannot "apply"

[rborn]

Hi David,

I'm trying to use your lib but it seems I'm not managing to :(
I get a runtime error.

The alloy.js

Alloy.Globals.nano = require("nano");
Alloy.Globals.nano.syntax(/\-\=(.+?)\=\-/gi);

the xml:

    <Label id="fname" class="name" text="-=firstname=-" oneway/>
    <Label id="lname" class="name" text="-=lastname=-" oneway/>

The controller:

var userData =  {
     firstname : '',
     lastname : ''
 }

Alloy.Globals.nano($,userData);

setTimeout(function(){
    userData.firstname = 'moo';

    Alloy.Globals.nano.apply();
    console.error(userData);
}, 2000);

the KBoom:

[ERROR] Exception caught during observer callback: file:PATH_TO_MY_APP.app/nano.js:8313:39

[ERROR] { 
[ERROR]     firstname = moo;
[ERROR]     lastname = "";
[ERROR] } 

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
The above code tries to simulate an xhr call.

If I put the whole nano part and one apply only in the callback it works, bit as soon as I change the model and call again for apply, it crashes.

Thank you :)

Hi Dan. The example app in the repo also uses a timeout and last time I checked it worked. Will test your code soon.

Thank you :)

I think I found the issue:

Removing the commonjs module from tiapp.xml and putting the nano file in /app/lib made the error go away.

Maybe an issue with the module build? or the way Ti treats it?

[dbankier]

Hmmm... The compiled files are identical. I wonder what Ti does to mangle it.
Might remove the tiapp.xml way of doing it.
Thanks!

+1 The same thing , only works through Lib.
