Flex 1056: "Cannot create property" -- but the property already exists in datatable

337 views Asked by At

I'm following a flex application tutorial, and while I've been able to fix most of my errors, this one has me completely stumped.

I have a datatable called employees, with these columns: id, Firstname, Lastname, Title, Birthday, Cellphone, Officephone, Email, Address, photofile.

The application is simple: list all the employees in the HomeView, and when you tap on an employee, takes you to DetailView where you see all their extra info. Every time I do, however, I get: "ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property Address on valueObjects.Employees."

Here's the code for DetailView:

    xmlns:employeesservice1="services.employeesservice1.*"
    overlayControls="false" 
    title="{getEmployeesByIDResult.lastResult.Firstname} {getEmployeesByIDResult.lastResult.Lastname}"
    viewActivate="view1_viewActivateHandler(event)">

<fx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
        import mx.events.FlexEvent;
        import spark.events.ViewNavigatorEvent;
        import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;

        protected function goBack(event:Event):void
        {
            navigator.pushView(EmployeeListerHomeView);
        }

        protected function getEmployeesByID(itemID:int):void
        {
            getEmployeesByIDResult.token = employeesService1.getEmployeesByID(itemID);
        }

        protected function view1_viewActivateHandler(event:ViewNavigatorEvent):void
        {
            this.addElement(busyIndicator);
            getEmployeesByID(data as int);
        }
        protected function getAllEmployeesResult_resultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void
        {
            this.removeElement(busyIndicator);
        }   
    ]]>

    <s:Label text="{getEmployeesByIDResult.lastResult.Address}"/>
</s:VGroup>
<s:BusyIndicator id="busyIndicator" verticalCenter="0" horizontalCenter="0" symbolColor="red"/>

Now something to note: I added the Cellphone, Officephone, Email, and Address columns after I had created the EmployeesService1, and so I had to edit the .php to include these new values. So I'm worried I might have done something wrong there, but I triple checked for typos and I'm not getting any errors on the other values, so, I don't know. Again, this has me pretty frustrated. I've tested all the operations in the service, and they're all returning all of the appropriate values.

Here's the function from the .php: public function getEmployeesByID($itemID) {

    $stmt = mysqli_prepare($this->connection, "SELECT * FROM $this->tablename where id=?");
    $this->throwExceptionOnError();

    mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 'i', $itemID);        
    $this->throwExceptionOnError();

    mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
    $this->throwExceptionOnError();

    mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $row->id, $row->Firstname, $row->Lastname, $row->Title, $row->Birthday, $row->Cellphone, $row->Officephone, $row->Email, $row->Address, $row->photofile);

    if(mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt)) {
      $row->Birthday = new DateTime($row->Birthday);
      return $row;
    } else {
      return null;
    }
}

Even if you don't know the exact answer, are there easier ways for me to figure out what's happening? The call-stack in the error window is all the internal flex/as3 stuff. So I don't want to go down that rabbit hole if I don't have to.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!!

Figured it out.

The problem was in the .php, after each of the generated getEmployeesBy**() functions, there's a @return stdClass.

I needed to create a getEmployeesByName function, however, and did so in between the getEmployeesByID() and the @return stdClass. So I just put in another @return between the functions and it's all working cleanly now.
