abp.message.info is not implemented!

Error message

abp.message.info is not implemented!

What it means

abp.message.info is a stub in base abp.js. The framework defines the message API but leaves the actual UI to an adapter (e.g. abp.sweet-alert.js). Calling it logs this warning, shows a native alert() via showMessage, and returns a resolved jQuery Deferred (or null without jQuery).

Solutions

  1. Include abp.sweet-alert.min.js (or abp.toastr variant) after abp.js.
  2. Verify script order so the adapter overrides the stub.
  3. Or override manually: abp.message.info = function (m, t, o) { return abp.libs.toastr.info(m, t, o); };

Example fix

// before
abp.message.info('Saved!'); // alert + warning logged
// after
<script src="abp.js"></script>
<script src="abp.sweet-alert.min.js"></script>
abp.message.info('Saved!'); // sweet-alert dialog
Defensive patterns

Strategy: fallback

Validate before calling

if (/not implemented/.test(String(abp.message.info))) { console.warn('abp.message adapter missing — falling back to alert'); }

Type guard

function hasMessageAdapter() { return typeof abp.message.info === 'function' && !/not implemented/.test(String(abp.message.info)); }

Try / catch

try { abp.message.info(msg).done(cb); } catch (e) { alert(msg); cb && cb(); }

Prevention

When it happens

Trigger: Calling abp.message.info(message, title, options) without a message adapter overriding the stub.

Common situations: Missing abp.sweet-alert.min.js include; adapter loaded before abp.js so abp.js's stub overwrites it; AJAX-layer abp.message.info fallbacks firing in apps that never included the adapter.
