ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: -1 with wrong AutoExpandColumn

[Arno.Nyhm]

it would be nice if the autoexpandcolumn would be ignored or a good error message would appear if the autoexpandcolumn not match exactly the column id

if you have a indexoutofbounds exeption in some isHidden function then it is difficult to find out why.




// GridView.java
protected void autoExpand(boolean preventUpdate) {
if (!userResized && grid.getAutoExpandColumn() != null) {
int tw = cm.getTotalWidth(false);
int aw = grid.getWidth(true) - getScrollAdjust();
if (tw != aw) {
int ci = cm.getIndexById(grid.getAutoExpandColumn()); // <-- this returns -1 if the column is not found
if (cm.isHidden(ci)) { // <----- here it try to find if tis hidden cm.isHidden(-1)
return;
}


// ColumnModel.java
public boolean isHidden(int colIndex) {
return configs.get(colIndex).isHidden(); // <----- and here i get a index out of bound exception
}

to reproduce add this to any grid example:


grid.setAutoExpandColumn("unknowncolumnname");

[Arno.Nyhm]

add this exception:


if (ci == -1) throw new RuntimeException("AutoExpandColumn '" + grid.getAutoExpandColumn() + "' not found in ColumnModel");or check the id:


if (ci == -1 || cm.isHidden(ci)) {
return;
}

[sven]

Throwing an exception is a bad idea. This would be compiled down to javascript and would increase the filesize, which is uneeded.

[Arno.Nyhm]

but throwing an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is also not a good solution. so ignoring this autoexpand with "if (ci == -1 || cm.isHidden(ci)) {" is then the best solution... or not?

[fother]

work as intend..

javadoc: The id of a column in this grid that should expand to fill unused space (pre-render). This id can not be 0.

if the id dont exist.. return an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException :)

[Arno.Nyhm]

if you are new to grids and you make you first grid and you have this mistake in spelling then you spend hours of debugging just to find out its a spelling bug in this line...

so a better hint would be nice in this place.

would you realy guess from the stacktrace that this error comes from the missing autoexpandcolumn?

[fother]

I agree if you because I pass for the same problem kkkk

if use assert?

[Arno.Nyhm]

assert is also possible.

any message is welcome ;-)

[sven]

An assert is the only way to go and i added it.

[fother]

when java its compiled to javascript.. the assert "go to"?

[sven]

Yes, they will be removed. The compiler has a flag to maintain them.
