[sahi v1 -> v3 migration] package.name variables

zawistol

Hi,
In sahi V1 I had a lot of constructions like example test.sah
In sahi V3 it stopped to work.
I tried different constructions like
$Categories.TEXT1 = "MyText";
OR
Categories.$TEXT1 = "MyText";
But I am getting FAILURES with message "$TEXT1" not found or "$Categories" not found

*************** library Categories.sah ********
function Categories()
{}

Categories.TEXT1 = "MyText";
******************************************

***************test.sah ********
_include("Categories.sah");
_setValue(_textbox("userID"), Categories.TEXT1);

******************************

I think the underlying problem is following
In sahi V1 you can use
TEXT = "ala";
_setValue(_textbox("userID"), TEXT);

In sahi V3 you must use
var $TEXT = "ala";
_setValue(_textbox("userID"), $TEXT);

Yes Lech,

You will have to make them $ variables.
Btw, if they are all constants, you may try

<browser>
function Categories()
{}
Categories.TEXT1 = "MyText";
</browser>

I would recommend you to move to $ though.

hi Narayan,
This looks like a bug in PACKAGE.VARIABLE evaluation. Can I report it to bug tracker?

Please compare positive and negative example.

********************* POSITIVE *************
function LIBRARY()
{}
LIBRARY.USER = "4000";

---

var $temp = LIBRARY.USER ;
_setValue(_textbox("login"), $temp);

********************* NEGATIVE*************
function LIBRARY()
{}
LIBRARY.USER = "4000";

---

_setValue(_textbox("login"), LIBRARY.USER);
*******************************************

Please also note, I cannot declare
$PACKAGE.VARIABLE = "scott"
because of JSERROR
ReferenceError: "$LIBRARY" is not defined.
