Rule created with HABmin doesn't use the "when" section

[denniseffing]

When configuring this rule:

HABmin creates the following source:

The when section of the rule is completely empty, resulting in the rule never getting triggered. The examples provided on the GitHub page always use the "when" section but I couldn't reproduce this behaviour.

I use the latest stable release of HABmin (v0.1.4, 2016-04-10T22:45:48) and openHAB v2.0.0b2.

Is Rocker a valid item name?

Yes, here is my item configuration for reference:

Well, for some reason, HABmin doesn't see these as valid items. If they are valid, it should put .state on the end, and it should also add the when clause.

[denniseffing]

Okay, now I've tried to add two more test switches, without any format or binding or anything else like this:

Switch Test1
Switch Test2

but still, this is the result:

Weirdly enough, HABmin uses sendCommand again instead of postUpdate. My guess is that the issue #161 is directly connected to HABmin not seeing them as valid items, but then again when still doesn't work.

Is there any way to verify that HABmin doesn't see them as valid items through its interface? Every configured item shows up under "Configuration" -> "Elements" and if I click on one, the item details extracted from HABmin look like this: Any other suggestions I can try to make this work?

[cdjackson]

Sorry - I didn’t click last night you were using OH2 (although I should have - sorry).

The reason for the problem is the same - it’s not detecting the items. However my way of searching for items might not be OH2 compatible. I’ll take a another look…

Can you give me an ETA on when you plan to take a look at this?

I am planning to use your rule creation for users who don't necessarily know much about programming or anything for that matter. Also, if you figure out the actual problem causing this (with reference to the code or anything), that'd be much appreciated!

[cdjackson]

Sorry - I’ve been travelling for work. I’ve made a change that might software the problem and I’ll try and update the JAR tonight (UK time).

Any update on the updated JAR?

[cdjackson]

The JAR was updated, but the problem still exists and I've not had a chance to look at it yet.

[cdjackson]

Please try the latest snapshot to see if this works better...

[cdjackson]

I believe this is fixed in the latest version. If not, please reopen.
