SnippetFailure message

[jack]

I am getting the following error


net.liftweb.http.LiftRules - Snippet Failure: SnippetFailure(/
want/-403286062/100001775492537/41.323877/-72.633434/Wid%20Jackman/
lamp/I%20WANT!%20this ->
ParsePath(List(wantDetail),,true,false),Full(baseballcard.gettopbartext),Class
Not Found)

At first I thought some exception was causing the package not to be
recognized but I don't see any errors other than the above one. I am
also seeing the following message on the web page

Error processing snippet baseballcard.gettopbartext.
Reason: Class Not Found XML causing this error:

Does this mean a class named XML is missing? The package is configured
in Boot.scala

Any ideas?

[Antonio Salazar Cardozo]

No, that means the class referenced in the snippet name wasn't found. It looks like you invoked the baseballcard.gettopbartext snippet. Since class and method names are case sensitive in snippet invocations, you should adjust accordingly. I imagine that should be something like BaseballCard.getTopBarText or something of the sort.

I am already invoking it that way. Here is the line.

<span class="topbar_text"><lift:BaseballCard.getTopBarText/></span>

Its showing up in the error message on the page in all lowercase for
some reason.

[jack]

Ok, after much testing I am finding something very strange. When I
changed the method name from
getTopBarText to test, it worked. I checked it many times. Don't know
what to make of this.

[Antonio Salazar Cardozo]

Hm. Any chance you can post a gist of the snippet class?

Do snippet names have to be lowercase?

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

No, mixed case is fine.

Are you sure your template has *exactly* the same case and spelling as the method name? Try copy-pasting one over the other. Perhaps the reason why the error message has it all lower is because after it failed to find the way you spelled it, Lift looked for an all-lowercase method, and after not finding that either displayed the error message according to the last attempt.

Not sure if Lift works that way, just a thought.

I'll check again more carefully.

If you're using the HTML5 parser, all names are converted to lower case.

I see. Thanks David.

Problem solved? I've encounter exactly the same problem today.
DDP's Lift Basic Video at 02:46:30, his MySnip3 also reported this error, but DDP change to MySnip2, so didn't know why
this error happened. I run Simply Lift Code on my machine also chapter 3 also report this error.

on the console I can as the OP said:
Snippet Failure: SnippetFailure(/Menu/PreParamMenu -> ParsePath(List(Menu, PreParamMenu),,true,false),Full(PreParamMenuDemo),Class Not Found)

I am sure the case and classpath of the snippet are correct.

One more data point on this subject:
Using the html5 parser it seems we have to use lowercase snippets?

This camel case snippet fails with a class not found error:
<script src="https://gist.github.com/795438.js?file=lift%20snippet
%202.scala"></script>

https://gist.github.com/795438

The same snippet refactored to lowercase class name works:
<script src="https://gist.github.com/795433.js?file=html5%20snippet
%201.scala"></script>

https://gist.github.com/795433

(apologies for the unintentional private reply)

Yes, I saw a snippet failing in camel case when I whipped up an example against SNAPSHOT, but thought it was me.

Please see: http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/liftweb/HtmlProperties_XHTML_and_HTML5

Yes, the Html5 parser converts all XML style tags to lower case.
