Hi Cristian,

I was trying to do this:

1) Cache all deviceCompanions in a object, that the key will be the hostPCI

2) Query this information when the user enter in guest edit, instead of download everytime the user enter on this page


So, why i am asking about setTimeout?

I tried to do the operations above and hit an error: The guest_edit page was unable to get the deviceCompanions because they were not downloaded, so, i would like to put an timeout (or other function) to make the function waits for this download, and then, continue to load kimchi.

But I still don't understand how the function setTimeout can help you with that. Adding a timeout probably won't solve your problem, it won't cache anything, it will just delay the page unresponsiveness.

Hi Cristian, nice to see you here :)

The function getPCIDeviceCompanions tooks almost two second for each interation. As this function being called each time that the Edit button is accessed, i want to cache the values on kimchi.main() to save time.

On systems that has too much pci devices, a popup from the browser asks for quit the page by unresponsible script.

The function "kimchi.getPCIDeviceCompanions" (and most other Kimchi JavaScript functions, actually) receives a callback function which receives a result parameter. That function should be executed when the result is ready. In your case, your parameter function doesn't match this requirement (i.e. you're passing a function which receives a function which receives a parameter). You need to pass parameters exactly as they're expected by the main function.

Also, why are you using setTimeout at all?

Hi team,

i was trying to cache 2 objects, but they came from a HTTP request, and
took some time to download it. I was unable to use the function
setTimeout while calling this function:

     kimchi.getPCIDeviceCompanions(kimchi.hostPCIs[i].name,
setTimeout(function(result) {
         kimchi.deviceCompanions[kimchi.hostPCIs[i].name] = result;
     },5000));
}


The function kimchi.getPCIDeviceCompanions usually takes 2s to finish.
