Bug in requestNavigateTo
------------------------
Key: SHINDIG-515
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-515
Project: Shindig
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Features (Javascript)
Reporter: Erel Segal
Priority: Critical
While trying to run a real open-social application (TypeRacer) on Shindig,
After some tracing, I think I found a bug.
When calling an RPC service, execution arrives at rpc.js, to the function
function process(rpc)
In that function, there is a line:
var result = service.apply(rpc, rpc.a);
Where :
* service is a function, typically registered by gadgets.IfrGadgetService, in
this case, it is the function
gadgets.IfrGadgetService.prototype.requestNavigateTo
* rpc is a struct containing 5 fields related to the request (s, f, c, a, t).
According to the Javascript documentation:
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Reference:Objects:Function:apply
The "apply" function takes two arguments: the first it the "this" variable and
the second is the array of arguments.
So, in this case, the "this" variable is the rpc struct, but it is passed to a
function that belongs to the gadgets.IfrGadgetService class!
This causes an obvious Javascript error on requestNavigateTo.
