JS API 4.0 beta2 shows error message

AyakoSUZUKI — Tue, 15 Dec 2015 01:40:47 GMT

An application built by JS API 4.0 beta2 shows error message in console panel.

The error message is not shown when JS API 4.0 beta1 is used.

Steps to recreate:

1. Open a sample from sample code page.

2. Click 'Explorer in the sandbox' button.

3. Open console panel in developer tools. The error message is shown.

4. Change API from beta2 to beat1 and clear console.

5. Click 'RUN'. Check console panel. There is no error message.

This no longer appears to be an issue in either Chrome or IE, at least for all of the samples I checked. It may have been an issue with the CDN, or Esri has already fixed.

Hi, Chris

Thank you for your information.

It seems that the error message is still shown in my environment.

What does an issue with the CDN mean?

Do you think something wrong is happening in CDN and shows error message?

I checked 4.0beta3 and I am getting an error.

Do you have a particular sample that this happens on? I'm not seeing it.

A caveat is that some stuff for apps built from beta1 are not guaranteed to work in beta2 and the same for beta3. Being a beta you will probably need to do some rewrites between releases.

Hi, Rene

In fact, the error message disappears when I change browser's language from Japanese to English.

So the issue is caused by using a browser in Japanese.

Hi Ayako SUZUKI,

When I test with Firefox browser and Japanese locale I can repro this in beta 2, but for beta 3 it seems to work fine (no console message). Could you test again, and make sure there is no browser cache issues?

I tested with https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/beta/sample-code/sandbox/sandbox.html?sample=get-started-mapview.

Hi, Bjorn

I deleted browser cache and tested with the sample you linked in beta3 on Firefox, Chrome and IE11.

Firefox did not show the error message related to searching property (it seems that different error message is shown thought), but the error message still appears on Chrome and IE11.

I took snapshots of console panel.

Firefox

Chrome

IE11

Translation for the message: "SCRIPT5007: Unable to get property 'searching' of undefined or null reference"
