Hi,
I stumbled across a disturbing bug or maybe feature in the PB IDE.
If a user definded object 'u_dw' derived from standard datawindow is on a standard class window and named 'dw_1' a System Tree search for 'u_dw' will report a match found on the window
.
If the same user defined object 'u_dw' derived from standard datawindow is on a standard class window and named 'dw_auf' a System Tree search for 'u_dw' will report 0 matches
Staying with standard class it is veriy eaasy to reproduce:
If a standard commandbutton placed on a standard window and named 'cb_test' a system tree search for 'commandbutton' will report the window
If a standard commandbutton placed on a standard window and named 'cb_auf' a system tree search for 'commandbutton' will report 0 result matches.
Is this a Bug or some sort of feature omitting all Objects containing 'auf' in their name from search???
Appeon Powerbuilder Standard Edition Version 2019 Build 2170
To Reproduce:
Create new Workspace
Create new Application
Create new Window w_test1
Place commandbutton on window w_test1
Name commandbutton cb_test
Save Window w_test1
Create new Window w_test2
Place commandbutton on window w_test2
Name commandbutton cb_auf
Save Window w_test2
Perform search on System Tree for 'commandbutton' (without the quotes!)
Search only finds w_test1 but doesn't find w_test2
Any Ideas?
Thanks for reporting this problem.
We can reproduce it on our side in PB 12.6, PB 2017 and PB 2019.
We will need some time to figure it out and will keep you updated.
Regards,
