💡 What is the current behavior?

The current JavaScript and C# interop classes contain significant code duplication and inconsistent patterns:

JavaScript Issues:

  • Inconsistent error handling across interop files
  • Missing input validation for parameters
  • Repeated utility functions across multiple files
  • Inconsistent error messages and catch block handling
  • Missing documentation (JSDoc comments)
  • Some files had bugs (incorrect error variable names, mismatched function names)

C# Issues:

  • JavaScript interop classes (BaseInterop.cs, FileUploadInterop.cs, TabsInterop.cs) contain repeated patterns for module loading, disposal, validation, and error handling
  • Each interop class implements the same boilerplate code (~100-150 lines per class)
  • Inconsistent error handling and exception patterns
  • Resource management duplication across classes

This leads to:

  • Code duplication: ~590 lines of repeated C# infrastructure code + duplicated JS utilities
  • Maintenance burden: Changes require updates across multiple files
  • Inconsistent behavior: Slight variations in error handling and validation
  • Bugs: Some JS files had incorrect error handling and function name mismatches

🆕 What is the new behavior?

JavaScript Improvements:

  • Refactored all JavaScript interop files with consistent error handling, input validation, and documentation
  • Added comprehensive JSDoc documentation for all exported functions
  • Implemented modular utility functions for validation, element lookup, and JSON parsing
  • Fixed bugs including incorrect error variable usage and mismatched function names
  • Enhanced index.js with improved AG Grid and ECharts integration safety
  • Consistent error handling with descriptive error messages across all files

C# Improvements:

  • Created BaseJSInterop abstract base class that centralizes all common JavaScript interop functionality
  • Refactored all interop classes to inherit from BaseJSInterop, eliminating code duplication
  • Implemented shared infrastructure methods for module loading, disposal, validation, and JavaScript invocation
  • Added automatic DotNetObjectReference management with proper disposal patterns
  • Standardized error handling with consistent exception messages and context

Files refactored:

JavaScript files:

  • categoryFilterInterop.js - Added validation, error handling, and documentation
  • baseJsInterop.js - Enhanced error handling and input validation
  • applicationInterop.js - Improved error handling and validation
  • aboutMenuInterop.js - Added comprehensive error handling and validation
  • dateDropdownInterop.js - Enhanced with validation and documentation
  • fileUploadInterop.js - Improved error handling and input validation
  • settingsMenuInterop.js - Added validation and consistent error handling
  • sliderInterop.js - Enhanced error handling and documentation
  • tabsInterop.js - Improved validation and error handling
  • treeInterop.js - Added comprehensive error handling and validation
  • index.js - Enhanced AG Grid and ECharts integration with safety improvements

C# files:

  • FileUploadInterop.cs: Reduced from 184 to 72 lines (61% reduction)
  • TabsInterop.cs: Reduced from 226 to 68 lines (70% reduction)
  • BaseInterop.cs: Reduced from ~180 to ~80 lines (56% reduction)
  • Added: BaseJSInterop.cs - New shared base class (268 lines of reusable infrastructure)

Key improvements:

  • Zero breaking changes: All public APIs remain exactly the same
  • Enhanced reliability: Comprehensive input validation and error handling
  • Better maintainability: Shared patterns and consistent code structure
  • Bug fixes: Resolved JS error handling bugs and function name mismatches
  • Improved documentation: JSDoc comments and XML documentation
  • Consistent error messages: Unified error reporting across all interop files
