ResponseItem.getError*() methods not implemented?

Reply Contact

I read over http://developer.myspace.com/community/myspace/opensocialref.aspx#opensocial.ResponseItem.getErrorMessage and it looks like I should be able to get the error message for why a request fails from the ResponseItem. For example, I make a call and when I get the result back, I've got an error... but what is the error?


var dataRequest = opensocial.newDataRequest();

var userById = dataRequest.newFetchPersonRequest(id);

dataRequest.add(userById,"userById");

dataRequest.send(results);



function results(dataResponse){

   if(!dataResponse.hadError()){

      // do stuff with this user

   } else {

      document.write(dataResponse.getErrorMessage());

      document.write(dataResponse.getErrorCode());

   }

}

In case anyone else stumbles into this thread, the error is that dataRequest.newFetchPersonRequest(id); with an id value isn't actually supported despite being part of the OpenSocial 0.7 spec.

The methods just aren't implemented... I've not been able to get word if they're going to be any time soon.

You're attempting to get an error from the DataResponse object. A DataResponse object contains a collection of requests/responses, calling getError there doesn't make sense as there could be several errors -- which error would the response return?

http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/docs/0.7/reference/opensocial.DataRequest.html

What you want to do is look for the error on the individual ResponseItem object, so dataResponse.get(whatever).getErrorMessage())
