Possessions keeps track of gold and items across all of your characters on each server. Its primary utility comes from being able to use a slash command to instantly show you where you already possess an item on the server without cluttering your tooltips all the time.

Doesn't work currently with old data. Try to bring it up ("/poss") and the following error occurs. The Possessions window does not come up after the error:
Possessions\\Possessions.lua:803: attempt to call a table value\nPossessions\\Possessions.lua:803: in function `Possessions_CountMoney'\nPossessions\\Possessions.lua:404: in function `Possessions_BuildDisplayIndices'\nPossessions\\Possessions.lua:313: in function `Possessions_Update'\nPossessions\\Possessions.lua:286: in function `Possessions_Show'\nPossessions\\Possessions.lua:297: in function `Possessions_SlashCommandHandler'\nPossessions\\Possessions.lua:678: in function `value'\nFrameXML\\ChatFrame.lua:3008: in function `ChatEdit_ParseText'\nFrameXML\\ChatFrame.lua:2734: in function `ChatEdit_SendText'\nFrameXML\\ChatFrame.lua:2756: in function `ChatEdit_OnEnterPressed'\n<string>:\"ChatFrameEditBox:OnEnterPressed\":2: in function <[string \"ChatFrameEditBox:OnEnterPressed\"]:1 Without Possessions being able to convert old saved databases, not much point to it. If you have to start over with brand new databases for it to work, may as well choose Sanity2 (http://www.wowace.com/files/ , look for "Sanity2" on the page). That does things in a much more aesthetically pleasing fashion (and actually works).

Thanks for updating this. This is not a request but a minor suggestion, if you change this in Possessions_SearchBox:
<OnEscapePressed> Possessions_Hide(); </OnEscapePressed> to this: <OnEscapePressed> this:ClearFocus() </OnEscapePressed> It allows you to keep the window up while using the keyboard for other things. (opening bags, sending links, etc) Since Possessions_Frame is in UISpecialFrames a second ESC will clear the window from the screen. |

Awesome tip Gello!
warda - Money still works, but Possessions requires enhTooltip in order for it to be displayed. You can get an alpha version of enhTooltip from the Auctioneer website here. This just screams "Ace2 me!" Zidomo - I have no idea why old data doesn't work, sorry... It doesn't look like there are stray newlines in my old file such as was the case for LootLink savedvariables. |

Zidomo, I didn't realize this at first, but the Item String Format used in links was completely changed in WoW 2.0. This is why old data will not work. There are now 8 fields in the itemString instead of only 4. This is likely to store information on gems that are in an items sockets and other things.
I've posted an updated version (2.0.2e) which properly handles this change so that items like "Raider's Boots of the Bear" now show the correct stats instead of no stats at all.

d/c on item linking
I've rebuilt my database clean since installing 2.0.2e, and when I link stuff from possessions, it d/c's me. Is this as planned?

Nope. What's the item name and does the tooltip appear to be correct when you mouseover the item before trying to link it?

Haven't tried to chat link items out my old database yet. But item tooltips for old items seem to be messed up here.
The proper item name appears in the list line. And the tooltip shows the correct character the item(s) is on as well as the correct quantity. But the other tooltip information is wrong. For example: "Lunar Wand Of The Owl" shows "Lunar Wand" only in green and stats not belonging to the item below that. This is having logged on the character that possesses the item and opening the character frame, then checking those items from a different character (on the same account/faction). Same issue with unique blue/purple items. As to the disconnect-on-link issue...item ID numbers have all changed in WoW 2.x. Additional numbers have been added to all existing items (and new ones) to make room for future changes (gemcrafting, etc.). The disadvantage of this: any mod that uses old item IDs to store data will disconnect you when you try to chat link the item. This is because WoW doesn't recognize the item; it doesn't understand the old item IDs.

I do know the reason for the problem, I just don't know the best way to fix it.
Data stored by possessions from before the patch for Lunar Wand of the Owl might be "15283:0:769:0" while post-patch it should be "15283:0:0:0:0:0:769:0" Thus, the suffix is out of place and shows up missing. I do not have enough experience in coding with LUA to know exactly how to recognize and update databases with the old format. It should be possible to manually update your old databases fairly easily by pasting ":0:0:0:0" after the first number of each ItemString. Just make sure that you edit Possessions.lua while WoW is logged out otherwise the file will be overwritten when you log out.

I (and many others) look very forward to the upcoming version 2.0.2g. You just have to love saving memory . Keeping track of keys is great too.
As per the problem with updating old item IDs, yes, several other updated mods have the same issue (LootLink, etc.). But as long as newly seen items are stored in the proper ID string format, I guess its a reasonable trade off.
