Bug: Silent Error in Datatable onAfterLoad()

Webix JS
#1

Hi,

I notice that some JS errors are not being thrown which make debugging hard, after long investigation it seem that error inside onAfterLoad clause is ignored and no error/warning is shown in console/webpage

could you please help

PS: this happens in other methods (e.g. type: { checkbox: function(obj){ /* here*/ }) }

Hi @MariyaDemy

Thanks for your response, is there is any patch I can can use to fix that bug, I can even amend the original webix.js in order to apply that fix, without waiting for an official fix

Thanks

Hi @mgraph2010 ,
The problem seems to be in this part of code (319 code line) .
You could try adding console.log(e) there.
Hope it will help you.

Same here, silent errors should not exist in webix.

Iā€™m often using a try catch in methods to avoid bad surprises.

try  {
    ...
} catch(e) {
   console.log(e);
}

In dev mode, webix should call methods inside a try catch (suggestion ?).
