Trouble with Minimap Icon API in 10.2.5?

Guides UI and Macro
1

Any thoughts or advice on this problem would be very much appreciated.

I am currently using the ACE3 Library to create a minimap icon for my addon. This has been working for quite awhile now on Classic, WotLK classic, and retail since 10.0.0.

When I cc’d my addon into the 10.2.5 PTR directory, the minimap button is no longer displayed and bugsack/bugGrabber displays a message that that a library instance of LibDataBroker-1.1 could not be found. Here’s the message:

2x AutoEquip/Sources/MinimapIcon.lua:32: Cannot find a library instance of “LibDataBroker-1.1”.
[string “=[C]”]: in function error' [string "@AutoEquip/LibACE/LibStub/LibStub.lua"]:23: in function LibStub’
[string “@AutoEquip/Sources/MinimapIcon.lua”]:32: in main chunk

Here’s the ACE load order from my .toc file

LibACE\LibStub\LibStub.lua
LibACE\CallbackHandler-1.0\CallbackHandler-1.0.xml
LibACE\LibDataBroker-1.1\LibDataBroker-1.1.lua
LibACE\LibDBIcon-1.0\LibDBIcon-1.0.lua
LibACE\LibSharedMedia-3.0\LibSharedMedia-3.0.lua
LibACE\AceAddon-3.0\AceAddon-3.0.xml
LibACE\AceConsole-3.0\AceConsole-3.0.xml
LibACE\AceDB-3.0\AceDB-3.0.xml

Finally, here is the code in question,

local _, AutoEquip = ...
AutoEquip.AutoEquipIcon = {}
icon = AutoEquip.AutoEquipIcon

local L = AutoEquip.L
local dbg = equipdbg

local sprintf = _G.string.format

local ICON_AUTO_EQUIP = 894556
local addonName = enus:getAddonName()

-- register the addon with ACE
local addon = LibStub("AceAddon-3.0"):NewAddon(addonName, "AceConsole-3.0")

local shiftLeftClick 	= (button == "LeftButton") and IsShiftKeyDown()
local shiftRightClick 	= (button == "RightButton") and IsShiftKeyDown()
local altLeftClick 		= (button == "LeftButton") and IsAltKeyDown()
local altRightClick 	= (button == "RightButton") and IsAltKeyDown()
local rightButtonClick	= (button == "RightButton")

local AutoEquip_DB = LibStub("LibDataBroker-1.1"):NewDataObject(enus.ADDON_NAME, 
	{
		type = "data source",
		text = addonName,
		icon = ICON_AUTO_EQUIP,
		OnTooltipShow = function( tooltip )
			tooltip:AddLine(L["ADDON_AND_VERSION"])
			tooltip:AddLine(L["LEFTCLICK_FOR_OPTIONS_MENU"] )
		end, 
		OnClick = function(self, button )
			-- LEFT CLICK - Display the options menu
			if button == "LeftButton" and not IsShiftKeyDown() then 
				local anyAvailable, reason = equip:setsAreAvailable()
				if not anyAvailable then 
					auto:postErrorMsg( reason ) 
					-- menu:hide()
				else
					menu:show()
				end
			end
	end,
	})

-- so far so good. Now, create the actual icon	
local icon = LibStub("LibDBIcon-1.0")

function addon:OnInitialize()
	self.db = LibStub("AceDB-3.0"):New("AutoEquip_DB", 
					{ profile = { minimap = { hide = false, }, }, }) 
	icon:Register(addonName, AutoEquip_DB, self.db.profile.minimap) 
end

Probably an API change in 10.2.5 that breaks the current version LibDataBroker (and maybe other libs).

Probably need to see if there’s an Alpha/Beta version of ACE for 10.2.5 yet (or wait until there is or, fix your PTR version of the library until there is).
