APAR status

  • Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

  • You receive a validation error in the IBM Process Designer
JavaScript editor for the following string:

ids.sort(function(a,b){return a-b});

The message indicates that "ids" is an array. The function still
works and you can get the correct result, but the red cross
error symbol remains in front of the script.

PRODUCTS AFFECTED:
IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) Advanced
IBM BPM Standard
IBM BPM Express

Local fix

  • To resolve this error, split the code onto multiple lines, for
example,

function compare(a, b){
return a-b;
}
ids.sort(compare);

Problem summary

  • No additional information is available.

Problem conclusion

  • A fix will be incorporated into a later release that updates the
 validation function to allow inline functions in the JavaScript
 editor.

Temporary fix
