I have a UI-Only picklist field on an object that up until a week ago was being populated by a custom field renderer snippet. Circumstantially, the snippet appears to have to have stopped working after the Rockaway 8.11 point release was applied on 6/8/2016.


The issue seems to be that the UI-only picklist field no longer has a picklistEntries member in the field metadata. Here is the contents of the snippet:


var params = arguments[0], $ = skuid.$;

var field = arguments[0];

console.log(field);

var picklistEntries = field.metadata.picklistEntries;

picklistEntries.length = 0;



skuid.$.each(skuid.model.getModel('Periods').getRows(), function(i,row) {

    

    var isDefaultValue = false;

    

    if(i===0){

        isDefaultValue=true;

        var mod = skuid.model.getModel('AccountingPeriodSignOffs');

        var cond = mod.getConditionByName('Period\_Code\_\_c');

        mod.setCondition(cond,row.maxPeriodCodec);

        mod.updateData();

    }

    

    picklistEntries.push({value: row.maxPeriodCodec, label: row.maxPeriodCodec, defaultValue: isDefaultValue, active: true});

    

});

var value = skuid.utils.decodeHTML(picklistEntries[0].value);

skuid.ui.fieldRenderers[field.metadata.displaytype][field.mode](field,value);

The error is: “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property ‘length’ of undefined” which is thrown at the “picklistEntries.length = 0;” line, suggesting that field.metadata.picklistEntries is undefined


Sure enough, when I look at the output of the console.log(field) I see that there is no longer “picklistEntries” member:


Can anyone recommend a fix or workaround?

We are unable to reproduce the error you are seeing. Can you create a page using standard Salesforce objects that mirrors the functionality you want on this page? If the problem persists, paste the XML here for us to take a look at.

Thanks!

Hi Karen,


No problem - I was just able to repro using the “Contact” Salesforce object. XML is below:























































var params = argumentse0],

$ = skuid.$;


var field = argumentse0];


console.log(field);

/**/

var picklistEntries = field.metadata.picklistEntries;


picklistEntries.length = 0;


skuid.$.each(skuid.model.getModel(‘RecentContacts’).getRows(), function(i,row) {


var isDefaultValue = false;



if(i===0){

    isDefaultValue=true;

}



console.log(row.Name);



picklistEntries.push({value: row.Name, label: row.Name, defaultValue: isDefaultValue, active: true});

});


var value = skuid.utils.decodeHTML(picklistEntriest0].value);


skuid.ui.fieldRenderersefield.metadata.displaytype]field.mode;

/**/

/*

skuid.$.each(skuid.model.getModel(‘RecentContacts’).getRows(), function(i,row) {


var isDefaultValue = false;



if(i===0){

    isDefaultValue=true;

}



console.log(row.Name);

});

*/







Thanks,

Hi Matt,

Is your ui-only filter field empty or does it have picklist entries? The picklistEntries field will not show up in the object metadata when the list is empty.

Thanks,

Amy
