Error description
The javascript generation for a for statement can generate invalid and dead code. For example, the following method: function businessObject_Ctrtpfx() for (j int from 1 to screen.ContractDetailList.functions.getListManagerThis(). getBusinessObjectList().getSize()) bo2 CefetraSBusinessObject = screen.ContractDetailList.functions.getListManagerThis(). getBusinessObjectList()[j] as CefetraSBusinessObject; bo2.setValue('VCtr_tp_fx', ('' + screen.FieldCtrtpfx.getValue())); end return; end Generates the following javascript: 'businessObject_Ctrtpfx': function() { var ezert$$19 = null; ezert$$19 = egl.checkNull(egl.checkNull(egl.checkNull(this.screen). ContractDetailList).functions).getListManagerThis(); var ezert$$20 = null; ezert$$20 = egl.checkNull(ezert$$19).getBusinessObjectList(); var ezert$$21 = 0; ezert$$21 = ezert$$20.getSize(); { var j = 0; j = 1; for ( ; (j ?= egl.checkNull(egl.checkNull(egl.checkNull(egl.checkNull(this.scr een). ContractDetailList).functions).getListManagerThis()). getBusinessObjectList().getSize()); j = (j + 1) ) { var bo2 = null; var ezert$$22 = null; ezert$$22 = egl.checkNull(egl.checkNull(egl.checkNull(this.screen). ContractDetailList).functions).getListManagerThis(); var ezert$$23 = null; ezert$$23 = egl.checkNull(ezert$$22).getBusinessObjectList(); bo2 = ezert$$23[ezert$$23.checkIndex((j)-1)]; var ezert$$24 = null; ezert$$24 = egl.checkNull(this.screen).FieldCtrtpfx.getValue(); egl.checkNull(bo2).setValue('VCtr_tp_fx', {eze$$value : ('' + egl.convertAnyToString(egl.boxAny(ezert$$24),false)), eze$$signature : 'S;'} ); } } return; } The code is assigning the end loop condition (ezert$$21), but then it doesn't use the value. I think it should be using the value in the for loop: for ( ; (j ?= ezert$$21); j = (j + 1) ) Currently, the code is evaluating the 'to' index before entering the loop and on every iteration through the loop. It should only evaluate it before entering the loop.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The JavaScript generated from a "for" loop is incorrect when the "to" value contains a function call. The function will incorrectly be called one extra time, before the beginning of the loop.
Problem conclusion
The extra function call is no longer generated.
Temporary fix
