    Dear Wijmo Team,

    I’m struggling to send data to a server. When editing an item, the change in the collectionview is corretly stored. But when calling a save function, the change in the collectionview is lost.

    Change method called by button click

    • parameter item is an item from the collectionview
    • gridData is the collectionView that is created as a component property

      like so: public gridData: wjcCore.CollectionView = new wjcCore.CollectionView();
    
    change(item) {
            this.gridData.editItem(item.date);
            item.date = this.date;
            this.gridData.commitEdit();
            item.dirty = true;
            this.gridData.refresh();
    
    	console.log("gridData: ", this.gridData); //here everything is fine
    }
    
    

    Async function to send data to server

    
    async save() {
            //here the change is already lost, even the dirty flag is gone 
            console.log("gridData: ", this.gridData); 
    
            for (let i = 0; i < this.gridData.items.length; i++) {
                let tmpItem = this.gridData.items[i];
            
    	    // even though the dirty flag is gone the code successfully passes the if statement
                if (tmpItem.dirty === true && tmpItem['id']) {
                    console.log("tmpItem: ", tmpItem); // the single item that was changed, but the change is lost
                    let convertedItem = Utils.convertFromNative2Katalogwert(tmpItem, this.katalogAttributeMap);
                    updatedItems.push(convertedItem);
            }
    }
    
    

    This is kind of strange. It seems like there is a second instance of gridData flying around but I have no idea why.

    Do you have an idea why this might happen?

    Best regards
