Cannot read property 'call' of undefined

ElizabethMiller — Sun, 12 Dec 2021 09:10:22 GMT

My custom widget has a click event handler that works with a draw toolbar and a dojo deferred function to create a snapped point on a map. The tool is working well with no errors in functionality in the map but I am getting a console error that I can't get rid of. I can't figure out what is causing it. The error occurs after the console.log('end') and before the console.log('second end') (see code snippet below). Can anyone help me troubleshoot the cause of this error so I can get rid of it? Here is the error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'call' of undefined
at Object.<anonymous> (init.js:653)
at Object.c [as onClick] (init.js:119)
at Object._fire (init.js:1299)
at Object._fireClickEvent (init.js:1306)
at init.js:63

_fireClickEvent @ init.js:1306
(anonymous) @ init.js:63
setTimeout (async)
_onClickHandler @ init.js:1305
(anonymous) @ init.js:63

Here is my code:

addtoMap: function(evt){

 
this.own(this.defmapClickEvtHandler = this.map.on("click", lang.hitch(this, function(evt){
 
this.map.graphics.clear();
 
var deferred = this.map.snappingManager.getSnappingPoint(evt.screenPoint);
 
var sms = new SimpleMarkerSymbol(SimpleMarkerSymbol.STYLE_DIAMOND, 12,
 new SimpleLineSymbol(SimpleLineSymbol.STYLE_SOLID, new Color([70, 0, 130, 1]), 1), new Color([70, 0, 130, 1]));
 
deferred.then(lang.hitch(this, function(value){
 
 var point;
 
 if (value !== undefined){
 point = value;
 
 } else {
 point = evt.mapPoint;
 
 } 
 
 var graphic = new Graphic(point, sms);
 
 this.map.graphics.add(graphic);
 
},
 
));
console.log('end');
 
 })));

console.log('second end');     
},

Elizabeth,

There is nothing that stands out in your code as an error. What does the function that calls addtoMap look like?

OK Robert, here goes, here is more of my code, hope it's not too bad! As I said, it functions well right now in the map. Thank you for your attention.

Elizabeth,

So based on your code you call createToolbar every time you click on the map after you toggle your button. Then you add another map click event listener in the addtoMap function. So basically you now have two functions listening for a map click and one of them continues to add more listeners each time the map is clicked. This is not a good workflow. It would seem more appropriate for your toggleGTM to call the createToolbar directly instead of adding a map click event listener to call it.

I think that did it! Thank you!

I made the following changes to the toggleGTM:

toggleGTM: function () {
 
 if (this.toggleButton.label == 'Tool Stopped'){
 this.toggleButton.set('label', 'Tool Started');
 this.toggleButton.set('baseClass', 'success');
 this.map.setMapCursor('crosshair');
 //this.own(this.mapClickEvtHandler = this.map.on("click", lang.hitch(this.createToolbar())));
 this.createToolbar();
 
 
 } else if (this.toggleButton.label == 'Tool Started'){
 this.toggleButton.set('baseClass', 'danger');
 this.toggleButton.set('label', 'Tool Stopped');
 this.map.setMapCursor('default');
 //this.mapClickEvtHandler.remove();
 this.defmapClickEvtHandler.remove();
 this.gtoolbar.deactivate();
 this.onClose();
 
 
 }
 },‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
