GetProperty problem - silverlight

I have an ASP.net website and inside its .aspx page there is a javascript function
and from my silverlight project , i want to get a value of property in the javascript funcion
i used "eval" to evaluate the function and GetProperty to return the value i want
the problem is GetProperty work only if i call the function for the second time
but never return in the first call
javascript code:
function RETURNIMAGE() {
var x = { value: document.getElementById("ImageContainer").value };
return x; }
c# code:
string getImage = "document.getElementById('myIFrame').contentWindow.RETURNIMAGE ();";
ScriptObject imgObject = HtmlPage.Window.Eval(getImage) as ScriptObject;
var img = imgObject.GetProperty("value");
any help please?

Since it works the second time I strongly suspect that the first time the IFrame is still loading its contents. Both Silverlight and the Browser will be getting on with their various activities asynchronously from each other.

Here is something that might help to halt the code until the page loads:
A hidden object/property can be put in the frame, but make sure it is after the property to be fetched.
Then a 'while' loop can be inserted in the c# code to check that this hidden property exists (the loop breaks only when the property value is loaded correctly), then put the rest of your code after the while loop.
This solution may not be optimum, but may be used to check if it is a loading problem or not.

AngularJS $window.open throws "Cannot read property 'arguments' of null"

I'm creating a simple web page where i display a button which execute this code
$window.open(link, "_self");
The link variable is a simple telegram link for a channel, but this is not the problem, the problem, as the question say itself, is about arguments variable in $window.open.
This in my opinion is strange because when i logged in the console $window.open function, i received this output:
function pbWindowOpen() {
lastBlockCaller = {
caller: arguments.callee.caller,
args: arguments.callee.caller.arguments
};
try {
return newWindowOpenFn.apply(this, argument…
At this point, should not i see an argument variable inside this function? How could i solve this problem?
Passing some arguments could resolve my problem? If yes, there's an answer about why i'm having arguments null?
I've also tried with window.open but nothing changes, always the same problem
That shouldn't happen if you are running your code in a browser (in other env you may have some initialized variable window representing something else), $window is a wrapper in top of var currWindow = $window.self || $window.window and then do a perform of callong open(...) function. Hence, you neither using the native javascript code badly in a angular context, and again that would be easily mock-ableif we mock $window and create a property call self or window inside it. So it will work in the application, and will also be testable.

Using Angular2 from a script inside an iframe of the main document

Note: I am new to Angular, any version.
I am trying to add some Angular2 parts to the web UI that is otherwise implemented using other frameworks. In the scenario I have (and cannot get away from) the main document does not have (much) JavaScript running in it at all - all scripts are inside iframe element(s) inside that document, as managed by the main framework.
I didn't even try to load Angular2 in that iframe, assuming that would not work. When it is needed (rarely), I "eval" all required Angular scripts on the main/root window to introduce Angular to it (once), but I have to have the JavaScript code configuring it inside the iframe, at least a bit of it and, because of that, it would be simpler for me to put all of it there. Inside that iframe I declared "ng" to be the "ng" from the main window. That enabled me to run the Angular2 5 minute quick start and worked fine. However, when I started adding more content via directives (I followed http://www.gurustop.net/blog/2015/12/16/angular2-beta-javascript-component) this didn't work. Specifically, it threw exceptions from this Angular2 function:
TypeScript:
function isValidType(value: Type): boolean {
return isPresent(value) && (value instanceof Type);
}
Actual JavaScript:
function isValidType(value) {
return lang_1.isPresent(value) && (value instanceof lang_1.Type);
}
Essentially it is was missing lang_1. The exception message has complaining of about "class0" and "class1".
If I move the exact same code from the iframe to the main window, it works. Also, If I hack the Angular2's isValidType() function to simply return true as follows it also works:
function isValidType(value) {
return true;
}
I tried bringing lang_1 in from the main window to the iframe as well, but that did not help.
Can someone, at least, tell me what is going on here, if not how to solve this? Thanks!

protractor e2e testing Returning Promises from utility steps

I'm fairly new to protractor and promises in general. I've had a look around, and although there's many posts out there about returning promises, or the results from queued actions none of them make much sense to me, so i'm after a fairly easily described answer to what I hope is a simple question!
I am trying to write some protractor tests for my angularjs website.
I am using bootstrap and angular mainly, no other third party libraries, other than the occasional angular add-on such as toaster, and bootstrap modal.
I have several 'arrangement steps' before I get to the assertion part of my test. Let's say :
a) Person logs in
b) Person accesses options form ( which may or may
not be displayed already on the screen depending on some external
factors, but if it's not present they can open it with a button press
).
c) Person performs an action on the options form.
d) assert that the text box on the form now contains the correct value.
I can get my test to pass quite easily when the form is already on the screen, but the bit that's getting me stuck is step b) where I need to check first if the form is active and click a button if it's not pefore proceeding to step c.
I've tried to return the promise from isDisplayed like so :
//
// Is the user settings form active at the mo?
//
function _isUserSettingsFormActive()
{
var result = element(by.id(logoutFormID)).isDisplayed;
return result;
}
But if I call .then on _isUserSettingsFormActive() I get the following error :
[31mTypeError: undefined is not a function[0m
However if I output the results of _isUserSettinsFormActive() I see the below, so I know it's returning something :
function () {
return self.elementArrayFinder_[fnName].
apply(self.elementArrayFinder_, arguments).toElementFinder_();
}
All I want to do is check if an item exists and act on that before performing my assert.
It needs to be in a function, as this code will be used in many places throughout my test suit. It's not the 'expect' itself, more a step that may or may not need an action to set up the browser for my test to pass.
isDisplayed is a function, so it should be called like that:
function _isUserSettingsFormActive()
{
var result = element(by.id(logoutFormID)).isDisplayed();
return result;
}
Protractor does not work like the Java or C# bindings of Selenium would (it's funner but more work to achieve what would be simple actions in Java or C#). It would be safer to return a count promise if the options form is also not in the DOM but if it is in the DOM and just hidden you could use isDisplayed(). I wrote two examples below for both situation including clicking the button depending on the condition.
Option 1 (Not present in DOM and not displayed):
function _isUserSettingsFormActive() {
//$$('#logoutFormId') is the equivalent of element.all(by.id('logoutFormId'))
$$('#logoutFormId').count().then(function(num){
if(num < 1) {
element(by.id('openLogoutButton').click();
}
});
};
OR
Option 2 (Present in DOM but not displayed):
function _isUserSettingsFormActive() {
//$('#logoutFormId') is the equivalent of element(by.id('logoutFormId'))
$('#logoutFormId').isDisplayed().then(function(visible){
if(!visible) {
element(by.id('openLogoutButton').click();
}
});
};

ng-table , getData called more than once, why?

For some reason when getData uses angular resource to bring the data it is being called twice, causing the resource to do it REST request twice too <--- bad...
Any idea why and how to solve it?
Here a working testcase/plunker example that recreates this scenario (look at the browser console - "getData being called...." displayed twice ) b.t.w as you can see I'm not really using the resource to bring real data, just to demonstrate the scenario, In my real app I do use the resource to bring real data and its being called twice just like in this example,
Thanks ahead
After looking into the src of the ng-table I noticed the following
$scope.$watch('params.$params', function(params) {
$scope.params.settings().$scope = $scope;
$scope.params.reload();
}, true);
Which means that the tables calls it 'getData' on count/filter/group/groupBy/page/sorting
which explains the behavior I was seeing.
When you call params.count(...) you ask ng-table to refresh data as you change page size. That's why you have two get-data calls.
If you don't want to have paging, then remove calls params.count and params.total.
If you need paging, then set page size and do not change it in getData.
This happened to me with a weird reason. getData get called twice on init (first load) only. changing page or sorting didn't call getData twice. The reason was that at init the ng-table directive was hidden in the template file.
Thank #Alexander Vasilyev. I understood my problem as you said. I want to explain a litte more here. In fact, the object "params" is the object configuration the table ng-table, then if "params" changed (ex: count or a property of the object), ng-table will invoke function getData() to refresh table.
In my case, I want to get information in the object "params" and change it but I dont want to refresh ng-table. I did it by cloning object "params" et work his object copied. Clone the object in JS with jQuery :
var resultParams = jQuery.extend(true, {}, params.$params);
And then, I will work on the object resultParams instead of "params" original.

extjsGirdPanel.getView().getRowClass does not work 2nd time

The handler of an extjsAction button calls a function with following code.
Add: function() {
var window = Ext.getCmp('wndAdd');
window.items.items[0].getStore().reload;
var Grid1 = Ext.getCmp('grdAll');
var grdStore2 = Ext.getCmp('grid2').getStore();
var i = 0;
var IDList = new Array();
for (i = 0; i < grdStore2.data.length; i++) {
IDList[i] =
grdStore2.data.items[i].data['ID'];
}
Grid1.getView().getRowClass = function(record, index) {
if (IDList.contains(record.data["ID"])) {
return 'disabled-row';
}
};
window.show();
}
But the getRowClass function works only on the first button click. does ot disable the row which gets added.
getRowClass only needs to be assigned one time. It is not a function that you call, it is a function called internally by the grid every time a row is rendered. Rather than assigning it inside an event handling function, it should be assigned ONE time, somewhere at the application level (e.g., wherever Grid1 itself is first configured would be the most logical place). This may or may not be your issue, depending on how your Add function is getting called, which is not clear. Bear in mind that since you rely on IDList inside getRowClass, you'll also have to have a reference to that variable that is in scope where the function is, and you will probably also have to add checks to make sure it is valid before accessing it.
You are also not showing where Grid1 is getting re-rendered. As explained above, getRowClass only executes when rows are rendered, so unless you are refreshing Grid1 somewhere not shown in your code, getRowClass will never be called.
FYI, while I'm glad that you found a solution that works for you, I'm not sure you understand getRowClass still. It does NOT get called only once -- it gets called EVERY time a grid row is re-rendered (which is anytime data changes). It was only getting called once in YOUR code because your code was not set up correctly.
I don't fully understand your use case, but regardless of the window being shown, the row striping would only need to change if the grid's underlying data actually changed. When you set up the getRowClass function properly, the grid takes care of calling it for you automatically, when it needs to, and it should "just work." There should be no need for your iteration code as written which just adds extra overhead.
Again, just FYI. :)
Yes, the getRowClass gets called only once when the grid is configured. But I wanted something that would fire everytimewindow.show() gets fired. I used the below code on window.onshow event.
for (var i = 0; i < Grid1.getStore().data.length; i++) {
var element = Ext.get(Grid1.getView().getRow(i));
var record = Grid1.getStore().getAt(i);
if (IdList.contains(record.data.ID)) {
element.addClass('disabled-row')
} else {
element.removeClass('disabled-row')
}
}
I will edit my response with an appropriate answer once supplied more information.
When are you firing getRowClass? It seems like you are creating the function but never actually calling to for a response.
Does the function error out, get called at all, or just doesn't do what you want?
