weird formInitProc error?

I have a really weird problem...I have a custom skill function
specified in the formInitProc. There is no skill error as part of this
function. When I Q a instance that has already been placed, the edit
object properties form opens up...but I keep getting a error that seems
like it has to do something with the form height. Because if I
set/unset the system/user/cdf toggle buttons, the error string also
changes...

*Error* difference: can't handle (959 - nil)
*WARNING* CDF parameter function has problem.

The 959 seems to have something to do with the height of the
form...because this number changes based on the whether the
system/user/cdf options are set/unset. There is no error while
instantiating a new cell, only while querying to edit (the logic inside
the custom skill function for instantiation and querying is the same).
The error also goes away if I don't specify any function for
formInitProc. Its almost like since I specify a function, some variable
that is used to determine the form geometry is not getting set...I am
100% sure that there is no error as part of the custom skill func.

Any ideas?

Thanks

One thing I noticed is that the cdfgForm->param and cdfgForm->prop dpl
evaluate to nil when I specify the function in formInitProc. This is
where the fieldHeight, fieldWidth props are stored, so may be this is
what the tool is trying to access? I still don't know why these props
are not available...
 
Raj,
Which icfb version is this occuring on, platform?
Have you tried it in an older version? Same problem?

Can you post the formInitProc procedure here?
 
Hey CadG,

Thanks for responding...

I tried both 5141 USR3 and 5033 ISR1...same problem. The same custom
function is used in another library and there is no problem there. The
function has too many calls to in house functions, so there is no easy
way to post that function here. I even tried putting print statements
and the error is not within that function.

I am almost convinced that its the missing cdfgForm->param and prop
dpl's...but don'y know why they are missing or how & where to set them.

Click to expand...
Try setting:

_stacktrace=40

and then seeing what the stack trace is when the error occurs. It might reveal
something...
