Troubleshooting
FillNewEntry
method isn't returning a frame. When the user chooses New, the CreateBlankEntry
message is sent to the newtSoup, then the return result from that is sent to FillNewEntry
to add further slots. The return result of FillNewEntry
then becomes the new soup entry. A common error is to fill in slots in the incoming frame parameter, but then to fail to return that as your function result. Here's a bad FillNewEntry
:
func(e) begin e.name := "Sally"; e.age := Random(1, 40); endIt needs to be rewritten as a good
FillNewEntry
to return e
:
func(e) begin e.name := "Sally"; e.age := Random(1, 40); return e; end
