sharedproperty initial value

[adam_k]

i've created a SharedProperty instance.  i've already created a CollectionNode and a nodeName for it in the Room.  i can update this SharedProperty value and read it, and with the Room console i can see that it is indeed being set.

however, when i first .subscribe() to this SharedProperty and try to trace its SharedProperty.value after the SYNCHRONIZATION_CHANGE event, the value is undefined, even when i can see in the Room console that it is set.  it's just a number.

do i have to wait for some other event to complete before i can get a SharedProperty's value? it seems like i'm missing something very simple here.

Hi,

It did work for me. Can you share your code... I pasted the code I used to test...

It would be undefined the first time you run. Click on the button to set some value. Close the app, and run the second time, and I see the sharedProperty value on just subscribing.

Thanks

Arun
