Any reason why protocol.FillArray(int, List, SaveOption) might silently fail?

Hi Dojo,

I’ve been trying to use

protocol.FillArray(Parameter.Acgroups.tablePid, rows, NotifyProtocol.SaveOption.Full);

however nothing seems to happen. There are no errors or exceptions, rows is a List<object[]> and I have verified that it’s not empty. Table itself uses type=”retrieved”. I’m not sure where to look at next, is there any reason why this call might “fail” silently or why it might “succeed” without results? Also how might I use the object returned by this method to analyse the result?

Hi Edib,

Could you confirm a couple of things for me?

  1. Is the first position of each object[] passed as a string type?
    Each item on the list represents a row and the first position is the primary keys (PK), if you have numeric values for the PKs you still need to pass them as a string (e.g. “1” instead of 1)
  2. If you increase the log level of the element do you see any relevant log that could indicate an error?

Regarding the return type, if I recall correctly, it is a boolean indicating whether the operation was successful.

Hi João,
the issue was that I was storing GUID to the key property. Just adding ToString() resolved the issue.
Thank you!

Hi Edib,

Building upon João’s earlier explanation: when you use the protocol.FillArray(…) call, it executes notify type 193. This action results in returning an object, which indicates whether the update was successful or not.

For more in-depth details, you can refer to the documentation here: https://docs.dataminer.services/develop/api/NotifyTypes/NT_FILL_ARRAY.html.

If you have any questions or need further clarification, please feel free to reach out.

Hi Tiago,
ah, I always went straight to the wrappers, but it does make so much more sense to read about underlying notify. Thanks, I’ll try to make better use of notifys docs.
