Weird error

[Caellian]

Thought i might just ask here, i'm getting this error each time i leave an instance group and have no clue where it could come from

..\AddOns\oUF\elements\ricons.lua line 8:
   Usage: GetRaidTargetIndex(unit)

Anyone has a clue ?

Looks like the update routine is being called for an invalid unit id (i.e. self.unit is nil).

Is the error from the oUF_Caellian available here?

The default Blizzard error frame would show you a dump of locals, which should help you see why.

No, it comes from my local version, future release

And the error comes from:

local updateAllElements = function(frame)
	for _, v in ipairs(frame.__elements) do
		v(frame, "UpdateElement", frame.unit)
	end
end

Understood, never underestimate default features

Hmm yeah i can see why the error, annoying though, thanks

Does that mean you've solved it? I can't see why from the error least :P

Sadly no, here's the code it comes from

local updateAllElements = function(frame)
	for _, v in ipairs(frame.__elements) do
		v(frame, "UpdateElement", frame.unit) -- LINE 622
	end
end

Then in the layout creation:

	self:RegisterEvent("RAID_ROSTER_UPDATE", updateAllElements)
	self:RegisterEvent("PARTY_MEMBERS_CHANGED", updateAllElements)

Oh I think that matches my post about a ForceUpdate functionality of header units.

Due to the party/raid bug we need some kind of ForceUpdate on Party/Raid roster change.

Has anyone found another way to fix party/raid frames elements not updating ?

[Talyrius]

Yes, update oUF.

What? You don't read the bible? 1.5.5 is live btw.

I thought yj made a good guess?

I copied my code bit here, but now I kinda put an "if it exists" before I do anything in my oUF since I was erroring so bad that I was causing wow fatal exe errors.

Try an if statement in there? Something like:

if (v.Health) then v.Health:Update() end

Of course I'm just a noob, so I'll go be quiet now.
