how strange... i rollback the component to 4.35 version
and the application run perfectly

when i use the 4.50.36 or 4.50.37 the program not complete.
it's very strange behaviour because i use the new version. not the old ones.

for the example:

i use 2 TMSQuery. 2TMSDatasource
the first i named master and the second i named it detail
the detail query masterSource i linked to master datasource
for the exampe the field in master query is supplierID and date
and sql in detail query is

Code: Select all

select * from item where SupplierID = :supplierID
when i run the program i click the button that i send the value '0001' to supplierID in master query
for the example

Code: Select all

  masterQuery.fieldByName('supplierID').value := '0001'
i not post the master query because i need to cek the some parameter
and before post the master query i need the detail query to show the result. (this can be done in sdac ver 4.35)


please tell me how to fix it in the new version of component.

thx

I could not reproduce the problem.
Please send me a complete small sample at dmitryg*devart*com to demonstrate it, including script to create and fill table.

Also supply me the following information:
- the exact version of SDAC. You can see it in the About sheet of TMSConnection Editor;
- the exact version of your IDE.

Thank you for information. We have reproduced the problem.
This behaviour has been changed for perfomance increase on records inserting, because when using master/detail relationship the existence of a detail record presupposes the existence of a master record.
To view the existing record you can use the Filter property. You can look at the example of using this property in the FilterAndIndex demo of the SDAC demo.

because i really need this function that i describe above, how to force it to get like that?
if i use filter, it's will be very slow because i must transfer all date to client program. please tell me how to done it well

We have investigated the problem. We will add the possibility of using the old behavior in the next SDAC build.

To restore the old behavior, you should set the RefreshParamsOnInsert variable to True in the initialization section of one of the units in your project.
This varible is declared in the DBAccess unit.

Does that have to be in a specific place?
I added to my global form's initialization logic, but doesn't seem to be working.
Please note : my detail table is already open.
I do an insert on the master, and my detail doesn't keep up.

I moved it to when my main form is created, before the datamodules get created, still not working.
Is there another setting that effects it?

this master detail linked by parameter in SQL statement
so this detail query need to declared the datasource
and my app use it when the master query in insert or edit state mode
try to insert new record that the ID linked to detail query that param refer to the ID
and i don't use fetchAll. but i thinkn this is not effect the behaviour of master detail.

if you use datamodule i think that the line of RefreshParamOnInsert should be put after form create and/or before the query activated
i just make suggestion here because i don't really understand how the SDAC really work. i make suggestion depend on trying and error that i got.

You can set RefreshParamOnInsert to True in any place before opening tables, that takes part in master/detail relationship.
