Subject: [1.10 Bug] SavedVariables.lua isn't loading |
| |
Issue: it appears that in 0.10, variables saved via RegisterForSave by AddOns aren't being loaded back in. It's as if SavedVariables.lua isn't getting loaded for AddOns, only the portions of it pertaining to the default Blizz UI. Exact steps to reproduce:
1) Create an AddOn "SavingTest" like this:
SavingTest.toc
## Interface: 11000
## Title: SavingTest
SavingTest.lua
SavingTest.lua
RegisterForSave("Indicator");
2) Log in to the game. Type /script Indicator=true
3) To verify, type /script message(tostring(Indicator)), it comes up with message box saying "true".
4) Exit the game. Open up WoW\WTF\Account\<acc.name>\SavedVariables.lua. Notice that the line "Indicator = true" is present in the file.
5) Log in to the game. Type /script message(tostring(Indicator)), it comes up with message box saying "nil".
6) Exit the game. Open up WoW\WTF\Account\<acc.name>\SavedVariables.lua. Notice that there is no line with "Indicator" in it.
The above steps demonstrate that although the value of the "Indicator" variable is getting saved to SavedVariables.lua, it isn't getting loaded back in.
The exact same procedure, when performed under 1.9, yields a different result. In step 5) you correctly get "true" in the message box and in step 6) "Indicator" is still in SavedVariables.lua.

Ah, something I forgot to put in the patch notes:
Addons can no longer use RegisterForSave()
However, can you verify that it's working correctly for the Blizzard UI?[ post edited by slouken ]

There's a free clinic on the test server. :)

Addons can use RegisterForSave right now, but they won't be able to in 1.10 release.
SavedVariables.lua is now manually loaded instead of executed. I'll take a look at loading boolean values, thanks!
