React UI: Atomare Bausteine (Schaltflächen, Menü-Auslöser, Checkboxen, Eingabefelder, Chips, …) sehen überall gleich aus und lassen sich durch eine Komponentenbibliothek (z.B. Material UI) ersetzen
#29797
XML import into existing data: resolve IDs against existing objects, skip known subtrees, optional references, language and variables from the input
#29799
Form dependencies: derived fields do not follow edited values; Java script functions cannot report what they read to the ScriptTracer
#29811
TL Views: a <button> ignores the display mode of its command and always shows icon and label
#29812
TL Views: a table column declares its own comparator; enumeration columns follow the enumeration's order
#29814
TL Views: no supported way for a server-side background source (a bus listener) to push a channel value into a view; only <start-job> does it through internal API
#29815
TL Views table: no per-row CSS class (a row cannot be marked as changed, stale or own)
#29816
TL Views table: a <computed-column> cannot be hidden by default (shown only through the column chooser)
#29821
Design System wave 3b: table, tree, column selection and text read the design system package
#29825
Design System: column selection of the React table – grouping as one select, checkbox first, visible and hidden columns apart
#29829
TL Views: Beschreibbarer Kanal, der aus anderen Kanälen vorbelegt wird

#29840
Persistent object wrapper hierarchy: remove dead and duplicated code, move stateless behavior into interface defaults, replace class identity checks
#29849
Configuration: an encrypted property value that is not a valid encrypted value is silently "decrypted" to garbage instead of being rejected

minor
#28605
Possibility to download a recorded script
#28995
Column filter should consider comparator of the column when sorting the options

#29805
TL Views: a <value-input> is declared like a model attribute (mandatory, annotations) - a mandatory enumeration input offers no "no value" option

critical
#29784
OpenAPI server: basic authentication of a technical user accepts an empty password when the configured password is empty (e.g. unset environment variable)
#29823
HistoryCompaction: Löschen von REVISION/REVISION_XREF und Umschreiben der Revisionsbereiche in je einer Transaktion lässt die Datenbank explodieren
major
#29580
RowSourceObserver: a disposed observer is still notified and throws NPE (_scope null) from DerivedViewChannel and GlobalModelEventForwarder
#29783
TLScriptFunctions: a script function is bound to an arbitrary overload of the same name, including a private one
#29788
Configuration: the error for an undecodable encrypted property echoes the value (e.g. a plain-text password) into the log
#29789
tl:generate-java fails on the first build after a TopLogic version change: it neither resolves the engine web fragments nor reads the project's own model sources
#29791
TL Views table: the row activation button runs the activation command without selecting its row, so commands reading the selection channel see another row (wrong breadcrumb label)
#29792
TL Views: a closed dialog (and a left tile-stack frame) stays visible for 1 s unless the application ships its own exit animation - move the demo's animations into the engine
#29800
Model patch of an existing database fails when a class gains a generalization and overrides its attributes in the same change
#29806
WrapperGenerator: every top-level class of a module with a singleton extends StructuredElement (regression of #26716)
#29807
WrapperGenerator: classifier constants of two enumerations collide, the generated factory does not compile
#29808
TL Views: the <on-submit> command of a text or number <value-input> runs on Enter only, not when the field is left with a changed value
#29810
TL Views: the selection channel of a <tree> keeps an object deleted in another view, and scripts over it fail
#29813
TL Views: a <tree> does not react to a change of an object it does not display yet, so a node that becomes a child of a shown node does not appear
#29822
CompactHistoryTask: Wartungsfenster bleibt nach dem Lauf aktiv, Task-Ende geht im Neustart der Persistenzschicht verloren
#29824
TL Views table: "Standard wiederherstellen" in the column selection drops a declared group-by (and does not restore the declared sort)
#29837
TestCompileJSPs modifies the module's source webapp and breaks concurrently running scripted tests of the same module
#29838
ClusterManager: a database connection that failed in a cluster transaction is returned to the pool and keeps failing every refetch
#29846
Changing the type of a column with content fails on Oracle (ORA-01439) and of an indexed column on MS SQL Server
#29848
ReportQueueTest.testAddJob fails sporadically: the queue thread may process the job before the test checks that it is queued
#29871
TestZipper.testEmptyFolder fails depending on the order in which the file system lists a folder
#29878
React UI does not react behind a proxy that buffers or refuses the window event stream
minor
#29766
TL-Script add() wirft UnsupportedOperationException bei Multi-Referenz auf transientem Objekt
#29804
XML import: line and column of a message location are formatted with a thousands separator ("line 4,433")
#29809
TL Views: a <value-input type="tl.core:Binary"> shows the file name as text instead of the binary field (no upload, no download)

task

#29790
Upgrade guide 7.11 to 8.0: add the Maven >= 3.8.9 requirement, state that 7.10.x applications can follow it, and point to it from the release notes
#29793
Developer docs: recipe for an application-defined primitive type whose display depends on the owning object (custom datatype, value class, type-level storage, label provider, input control)

TLScriptFunctions: a script function is bound to an arbitrary overload of the same name, including a private one

TLScript

Scenario

A TLScriptFunctions subclass declares a public static script function and, in the same class, a private helper method with the same name but other parameters:

{{{#!java @ScriptPrefix("cmsApi") public class CmsApi extends TLScriptFunctions {

public static Object updateTemplate(String name, Map<?, ?> body) { ... updateTemplate(template, body); ... }

private static void updateTemplate(Template template, Map<?, ?> body) { ... } } }}}

Calling cmsApiUpdateTemplate(...) from TL-Script sometimes invokes the private helper (wrong argument count/types, failure at runtime), depending on the order in which the JVM reports the declared methods.

Found in the TopLogic release notes application (Gitea TopLogic/tl-releasenotes), with tl-engine 8.0.0-alpha9.

Analysis

TLScriptMethodResolver selects the candidate methods correctly: it iterates getDeclaredMethods() and accepts only public static ones. For each, it creates a TLScriptMethod.Builder configuration that identifies the method only by ClassName#methodName.

TLScriptMethod.Builder then resolves that string again, by name only:

{{{#!java _method = Arrays.stream(implClass.getDeclaredMethods()) .filter(m -> m.getName().equals(methodName)).findAny().get(); }}}

All declared methods take part, including private and non-static ones and every overload, and findAny() picks one at random. So the method the resolver checked is not necessarily the one that gets bound. A <method> registration through TLScriptMethod.Builder with an overloaded name has the same problem.

The same applies to two public overloads that the resolver offers as separate script functions through different @Name annotations: a lookup by Java method name alone cannot tell them apart.

Lösung

  • Die Methodenangabe von TLScriptMethod.Builder (<java method="..."/>) kann die Parametertypen enthalten: fq.ClassName#methodName(java.lang.String,java.util.Map). Die Typen werden mit ihrem binären Namen (Class.getName()) angegeben, z.B. int oder [Ljava.lang.String; für ein Array. Die Form ohne Parameterliste (fq.ClassName#methodName) bleibt für handgeschriebene Registrierungen erlaubt.
  • Der Builder berücksichtigt nur nicht-synthetische public static Methoden (TLScriptMethod.Builder.isScriptFunction(Method), dasselbe Prädikat wie in TLScriptMethodResolver). Mit Parameterliste wird genau diese Methode gebunden; ohne Parameterliste muss der Name eindeutig sein. Andernfalls (keine oder mehrere passende Überladungen) wird ein Konfigurationsfehler mit den gefundenen Kandidaten gemeldet, statt eine beliebige Methode zu wählen.
  • TLScriptMethodResolver schreibt immer die vollständige Signatur (TLScriptMethod.Builder.signature(Method)), so dass genau die geprüfte Methode gebunden wird. Da die Signatur den binären Klassennamen verwendet, werden jetzt auch geschachtelte TLScriptFunctions-Klassen aufgelöst.
