After Visual Studio 2012 was launched one of the first things that I tried was to write a Metro App in Java Script. I started to write an application that get an Azure Table content and display it in a grid. Of course to be able to display data from a source we need to define a data structure.
So, I started to define a list with some items that I binding to the UI.
The next thing that I tried was to rename the id field to something else. In my case I replaced with a field named “key”. When I hit F5 I was surprised that everything was up and running.
In conclusion, when you are using data that are binding to the UI, don’t use reserved names for the fields like “id”.
So, I started to define a list with some items that I binding to the UI.
var myItems = [
{ id: 1, name: "Tom", age: 20},
{ id: 2, name: "Jack", age: 23},
{ id: 3, name: "Maria", age: 19},
];
After I bounded the data to the UI I hit F5 and surprise. Visual Studio hit me with an error that doesn’t give you any kind of information about the cause of the error.{
"exception":null,
"error":
{
"description":"Null item"
},
"promise":
{
"_value":
{
"description":"Null item"
},
"_isException":false,
"_errorId":3
},
"id":3
}
This error is thrown by terminate application handler function. Because of this we cannot see any information about the exact line of the error. In the first moment I checked to see if the id field is null or if I bounded correctly, but everything seems to be okay.The next thing that I tried was to rename the id field to something else. In my case I replaced with a field named “key”. When I hit F5 I was surprised that everything was up and running.
In conclusion, when you are using data that are binding to the UI, don’t use reserved names for the fields like “id”.
