I just encountered something very bizarre. I have a java VO called DateSpans...it's a class that simply contains a whole set of variations of date spans available for a portfolio the user selects and I use this class to dynamically set the calendar component in my flex app.
The DateSpans class is populated by a procedure in the database and then I send the DateSpans VO back to my Flex delegate class and use it accordingly in my app. An example of some of the fields of this VO is ... previousMTDFromDate mTDFromDate mTDToDate previousQTDFromDate qTDFromDate qTDToDate ... I have a corresponding ActionScript VO that has all the same fields. Well, in my Flex app, I would retrieve the previousMTDFromDate and it would work...then when I went to retrieve the mTDFromDate or the mTDToDate, I would get an undefined returned to me. I have 25 other fields that I use and they were all turning back the date to me correctly...except for the ones that were named starting with yTD, mTD, qTD. It wasn't until I actually went through the fields in both VOs and renamed those fields to: ... mtdFromDate mtdToDate qtdFromDate qtdToDate ytdFromDate ytdToDate ... That I started getting the returned item I was successfully getting from the other fields...is there some issue with a naming convention with fields that start with only one lowercase letter? I SWEAR all I did was rename the fields to the examples above from qTDFromDate to qtdFromDate and so on and that fixed my problem. I thought I was going crazy...I was watching Java set the variables and I was calling them to doublecheck right before I sent the DateSpans object back to my ActionScript delegate class and all the info was there as I expected it to be for every field in the VO...and as soon as I entered the delegate I was printing out these fields...everything was properly set except for the ones that started with a single lowercase letter followed by a series of capital letters...isn't that bizarre? I named them initially that way just for function naming sake so the functions would be setMTDFromDate, getMTDToDate, etc just for ease of readability...but now they're all setMtdFromDate, getMtdToDate, which isn't the end of the world but I think this is kind of a funny behavior...am I missing something?
