Several Actions aren't properly resolved in Designer

[udo1toni]

Although I copied the action-file to Designer/addons-folder, the actions aren't recognized in the rules-files. So the designer shows errors, where aren't errors at all, also the auto completion does not work (evident) This Problem exist at least with Win7-64, Oracle Java7u67-32 and with openHAB nightly build 716 or older. With the same Installation, xmpp-action works as expected, so I think, the problem could be in squeezebox-action-file.

Sounded so good ... but #1485 doesn't seem to solve my problem - at least in Snapshot#739. In fact, Designer resolves the xmpp-Action, no matter if there is an xmpp-actions-File in openHSB-Designer/addons/ or not, and doesn't resolve the squeezebox-actions at all. Sorry for I hadn't checked that behavior before.

Question: Do I have to import something to rulefile, to make correct use of squeezebox-actions? (Maybe something like import org.openhab.action.squeezebox ? - no - this import does not solve the problem, but...)

[staehler]

I've the same problem unfortunately. Is there no hint, how to get rid of this anoying errors? Meanwhile this false errors lead to overlook real faults.

[teichsta]

so you are working with 1.7 SNAPSHOT, right?

[staehler]

Thats correct. I have the build number not at my hand, but it's quite recent (this week)

strange … when running the Designer from IDE the Squeezebox and xPL Action appear without any problems. So it seems to be an assembly problem …

[staehler]

Hi Thomas, hmm, do I need to include a special lib into my rules file? I get following error messages: Couldn't resolve reference to JvmIdentifiableElement 'squeezeboxPlayUrl'. or Couldn't resolve reference to JvmIdentifiableElement 'squeezeboxSpeak'. but the actions work well in openhab.

BTW I get such a error message for my.openhab actions ax´s well: Couldn't resolve reference to JvmIdentifiableElement 'sendNotification'.

[teichsta]

as i said it only works when starting the Designer out of the IDE. When running the binary i can reproduce the given problem

[udo1toni]

:) happy that you can reproduce it :)

Please note that we have the same issue with the MiOS actions too, at least with Designer1.6.2. I have not tested with Designer 1.7.0. So please check the MiOS actions too.

The non-appearance of the new Ecobee actions in the Designer is also an issue. I have been looking for commonalities across the action bundles as to why some bundles' actions appear and some don't, but I have thus failed to find an explanation. The Ecobee actions do not appear whether the Designer is run standalone, or from the IDE. Also, the MiOS plugin is not listed in feature.xml, but adding it does not fix the problem.

[lolodomo]

Regarding the MiOS actions, I can see using Desinger 1.7 that no error are displayed when you open your rule file. But as soon as you try to modify one rule, errors come back. So the bug is not yet fixed in 1.7 for MiOS actions.

[teichsta]

so it seems several actions aren't working. I know of

• Squeezebox
• xPL
• MiOS
• EcoBee
• my.openHAB

anything else?

[kaikreuzer]

Well, looking at https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB/ws/products/org.openhab.designer.product/target/products/org.openhab.designer.product/win32/win32/x86/plugins/, I see that at least MiOS, EcoBee and my.openHAB are all not contained in the Designer, right?

[marcelerkel]

The HarmonyHub action is also missing in ./features/org.openhab.designer.feature/feature.xml

[kaikreuzer]

So to summarize: The Designer distribution is lacking the bundles

• MiOS
• EcoBee
• my.openHAB
• HarmonyHub

Then, although it includes Squeezebox action and xPL action, it is missing their depedencies on

• io.squeezeserver
• io.transport.xpl

I would assume that if all these were added, there weren't any problem.

[teichsta]

see #2967 which makes the above mentioned actions visible except my.openHAB

[staehler]

Not sure if this item fits here: Designer marks the CallType (Fritzbox-Binding) with this message: "Couldn't resolve reference to JvmType 'CallType'." and "Couldn't resolve reference to JvmIdentifiableElement 'origNum'."

var CallType call = Incoming_Call_No.state as CallType
var String caller = "" + call.origNum
var String callee = "" + call.destNum

[teichsta]

are you sure you've added an import org.openhab.library.tel.CallType in your rules file?

[staehler]

@teichsta Thanks for the hint. I've imported this lib but the designer message remains (after validating the code). BTW: the rule works, even without this imported lib.

[teichsta]

see #2967 - made all all Actions (except my.openHAB - added #2993 as follow-up) available in Designer
