Designtimeerror: #25081843

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm noticing an error in Firefox 19.0 when I call jquery code to update a chart's swfUrl. The error message I get is:

DesignTimeError: #25081843 myChartID.render Error >> #25081843:IECompatibility() Chart Id is same as a JavaScript variable name. Variable naming error. Please use unique name for chart JS variable, chart-id and container id.

I get this with my code and the error is also appearing the the Fusion Charts ChangeType.html example code - At this directory in your documentation:<path to FusionCharts>/Code/jquery/BasicExample/ChangeType.html

 

Is this a known issue / how do I workaround?

 

Thanks,

 

Charles.

Hi Charles,

 

Welcome to FusionCharts Forum! smile.gif

 

 

This error occurs when you have a JavaScript variable in the global window scope with the same name as that of the chart's Id.

 

Could you please try giving a unique "chart id", "div id" and "variable name"? and try once again?

Hi,

 

Thanks for coming back to me. My chart does have a unique id. The chart works fine except when I try to change the swfUrl. Changing the data no problem.

 

I can replicate this problem in your own example code - see attached file. For me using Firefox 19.0 this example code is throwing the error mentioned above when I click the 'Change Chart Type' button.

Just to be clear. In you own sample code - attached above - I see this error in Firefox Firebug:

Apologies for the delayed response.

Guys,

 

We're now at 4 months since I raised this. This is a bug (which you have acknowledged) and appears in your own sample code. When will this be fixed?

 

FWIW, I believe the Joel Test for professional software development is quite helpful. Test question #5 is: Do you fix bugs before writing new code?

 

Please get this sorted!

 

Charles.

Hi Chalres,

 

This issue has been fixed internally. 

 

And we would update you on this, once the fixed has been released.

If you are using FusionCharts.js without the source code, you can lookup the following line in your obfuscated FusionCharts.js assuming its 3.3.1-release (any other version will have slight variance, on other version, but searching with the text "25081843" should get you near.)

a.renderer.dispose(this);window[this.id]!==void 0&&a.raiseError(this,"25081843",

and replace it with 

a.renderer.dispose(this);window[this.id]=undefined;window[this.id]!==void 0&&a.raiseError(this,"25081843",

If you want to make changes in unobfuscated source code, mail to [email protected] with reference to this forum post and you would be helped. :)

Great - I have implemented that fix and your code now works without throwing an error.

 

While I am delighted this is now fixed, some feedback for you: I would feel better about FusionCharts if it hadn't taken 5 months to get this bug sorted!

 

Charles.
