Description

Certain features introduced in Dojo 1.8 can cause the parser to run in an asynchronous fashion. The Qpid Web Management Console was upgraded to Dojo 1.8 sometime ago (QPID-4762), without taking this change into account. This is causing sporadic failures in the Console.

The dojo docs say:

For new development, it is best interact with parse() as if it was only a promise. For example, to do something with the instantiated objects, you would want to do something like:

require(["dojo/parser", "dojo/_base/array"], function(parser, array){
  parser.parse().then(function(instances){
    array.forEach(instances, function(instance){
      // do something with instances
    });
  });
});
