Question

How to enable local bound for thingshape property?

Hi All,

I am trying to enable local bounding with thingshape's property which is implemented on thing. How to enable local bounding with own thing property?

Ex. Created a thing "TestThing" with "ThingProperty" and Implemented "TestThingShape" with "ThingShapeProperty". Trying to enable local bound "ThingShapeProperty" with "ThingProperty". It was binded with "ThingProperty" but data was not updated.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Sathishkumar C.

Hi, Sathishkumar.

 

What version of ThingWorx are you using? There are no errors thrown in either the UI or the logs when you try this?

 

Thanks,

Thank you for your response.
I saw an error "Can not bind yourself" in application log.

yes, even i am getting the same error when i tried same scenario at my local end.

error : Cannot Bind To Yourself

 

i think thingshape becomes values when it is implemented by some thing -- thingshape being alone doesn't make sense

so in our case when our thing implements that thingshape -- properties defined in both thing & thingshape are both confined to same thing entity.. thats why it gives the error : Cannot Bind To Yourself

 

but if you create another thing and bound the properties between these 2 things - bind happens
