Hi, I have a problem using Attribute DXL. The situation is as follows. I'm writing a DXL script which creates an attribute named "URL". The code for this operation looks like this:

create(object type("String") dxl("obj.attrDXLName = getURL(obj)") attribute("URL"))

After that I insert a column in which I use the URL attribute:

Column col = insert(column count_cols) // insert as last column
title(col, "URL")
width(col, 200)
attribute(col, "URL")

Ok, this is in short what my script does. Now after executing the script in Doors I save the result as new view. Everything is still working fine. When I quit Doors and start it again, load the module and then load the view the following error message appears: "DOORS has encountered an error from which it cannot recover. DOORS will now exit." Furthermore a window titled "Diagnostic Log - DOORS" pops up. I have to say I'm pretty new to DOORS and DXL, so maybe it's just a beginner's mistake. I already found out, that if I don't use obj.attrDXLName the error doesn't occur. But then I lose the desired functionality. Btw I'm using DOORS 8.3.

Cheers,
Jochen

This is a bug in DOORS 8.3 - getURL in a view crashes the client, also Layout DXL has problems. If you do not use the DXL attribute containing getURL in view, it works OK, but saved in a view it will crash.

Corrected in DOORS 9.0.
