Error addon from woltk betatest

[Erina29]

Interface\FrameXML\UIDropdownmenu.lua:838:Attempt to call method 'GetName'
a nil value

Help me please.

What is the addon? Also, do you have more data with that error message?

Unfortunately, what you have is a symptom of a logical error, given that the FrameXML file is good.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that the problem is probably caused by your addon's calls to the various UIDropDownMenu_XXX functions not being updated to the WoW 3.x signatures.

Many of them require you to pass the actual menu object as the first parameter now, including the ones that used to require it as a 2nd parameter. For example, UIDropDownMenu_SetWidth(self, 203) as opposed to UIDropDownMenu_SetWidth(203, self) or UIDropDownMenu_SetWidth(203)

I confirm what Akryn said, I'm making heavy use of drop downs in my addon, and I've been confronted to that issue, almost all drop down related api functions now have the frame as first parameter.

bug difficult to fixe because such error is not directly linked to an addon in the error report so you will have to enable each addon one per one to find out which one is causing this.
