| Summary | 0000021: Problem with giveMeToAskFor mechanism | ||||||

I've taken a further look at this to try to track down what's happening. It looks like when a command like BOB, GIVE ME A KISS is issued, the new action's topicMatch becomes a topicPhrase(misc), whatever that is. When the newly-created AskForAction is executed, its resolveNouns() method calls its resolveTopic() method, which in turn tries to execute the line: topicList_ = topicMatch.resolveNouns(resolver, results); After executing this line, however, topicList_ remains nil, so I'm guessing that topicPhrase(misc) doesn't have a resolveNouns() method. Since nothing else gives topicList_ a value, we get the run-time error in TopicActionBase.getTopic() noted above. |

The problem is in TopicActionBase.reparseMatchAsTopic() (action.t line 5431) - that should be "return match[1]" instead of "return match". |
