The same plain-backtick "See sample: \`x.good.al\`." form fixed on
al-methods-limited-during-write-transactions (PR #161) turned up
repo-wide on 15 more of this PR's articles - Knowledge-Retrieval.ps1
requires the markdown-link form to associate a sample with its
article. All 16 fixed; the four local validators (frontmatter,
knowledge-index, knowledge-retrieval, review-fixtures, skill-index)
pass.
- dimension-management-wiring: SaveDefaultDim's third argument is the
shortcut dimension number (1-8), not the field's AL field ID; the
fixture passed FieldNo(...) = 10. GetDefaultDimID's InheritFromDimSetID
must be 0 when recomputing after the linking record changes, not the
document's existing Dimension Set ID (which would retain the previous
customer's leftover dimensions). Verified against
DimensionManagement.Codeunit.al and BankDepositHeader.Table.al in the
BCApps reference clone.
- check-post-line-batch-pattern: "Post Line writes exactly one line to
the ledger" overclaimed - Gen. Jnl.-Post Line alone calls InsertGLEntry
from a dozen call sites (balancing entry, VAT, currency rounding,
deferrals) and can write several G/L Entries per journal line.
Reworded to "posts exactly one journal line" and softened the
"distinct, non-overlapping responsibilities" absolute.
- namespace-must-be-verified-from-source.bad.al: dropped the "resolves
in a local build, fails in VS Code" comment (taught an inherent
compiler/language-server disagreement that isn't real); reframed as
stale/cached symbols, matching the prose fix already made.
- file-datatype-saas.good.al: replaced the deprecated 5-argument
UploadIntoStream overload with the current 2-argument one, and
actually staged through TempBlob as the article's own Best Practice
instructs (the declared TempBlob variable was previously unused).
- test-data-must-be-random-and-complete: no longer treats a
short-but-valid value as defective merely for being "underfilled" -
AL field lengths are maxima, not minimums. Scoped to missing values
or a scenario with an explicit length/format requirement (e.g. a
truncation test). Updated the al-testing-review.md routing cue to
match.
- stored-derived-fields-must-not-be-exposed-directly: stopped mandating
source-field exposure as part of the core pattern: the good fixture
exposed only one of the derived value's two inputs (Hours Used, not
Budgeted Hours), making the claimed "so the consumer can verify it"
impossible. Reframed as an optional, all-or-nothing addition and
fixed the fixture to expose both inputs.
Rebased onto upstream/main to resolve conflicts in
al-breaking-changes-review.md, al-data-modeling-review.md,
al-performance-review.md, and al-style-review.md against merged PRs
#148 and #153; all sides' worklist tokens/cues retained.
- Rename 3 articles so their .good.al/.bad.al companion stems match
(do-not-change-primary-key, testfield-required-setup-field,
al-identifiers-english), fixing the R14 orphan-sample errors.
- do-not-change-primary-key.good.al: include Flow in the new table's
own primary key so it actually models the discriminating dimension.
- al-build-output-must-not-pollute-project-root.md: drop the
unsubstantiated AL0197 causal claim and the non-existent
al.outputPath setting; reframe as build-artifact hygiene sourced
from ALTool --outfolder / al_build outputPath.
- prefer-email-module.md: Email Message is Codeunit 8904, not a table;
distinguish it from the underlying Sent/Outbox/Draft storage.
- file-datatype-saas.md: File.Open/Create/Read/Write fails to compile
against a Cloud-scoped project, it does not compile and silently
fail at runtime.
- namespace-must-be-verified-from-source.md: narrow to "resolve from
the referenced object's source or symbols," since source-file line
one is not the only authoritative source (symbol packages, comments
before the namespace line).
- test-data-must-be-random-and-complete.md: drop "assume an empty
database" and "collision-free" absolutes; reframe around
independence from unrelated business records and reserving explicit
values for scenario-defining inputs.
- binary-choice-must-be-boolean.md: scope to genuine true/false
semantics, not mechanical two-member-enum-to-boolean conversion.
- document-report-word-layout.md: scope down to a sourced Microsoft
Learn recommendation instead of an unconditional performance
guarantee; cite the three Learn pages.
- Wire the new articles into their review skills' candidate-selection
signals (file-datatype-saas, prefer-email-module,
namespace-must-be-verified-from-source, var-parameters-require-an-
addressable-variable) so they can actually enter a worklist.
