調査の方向性

src/Serialization.ts、特に getCellSerialized() と getCellFormula() から始め、次に issue にある自己完結型の Node 再現コードを実行します。アンカーではない配列スピルセルが計算済みの値なしでシリアライズされること、また getSheetSerialized() と rebuildAndRecalculate() が #SPILL! を生成せずに配列数式の結果を保持することを確認します。

説明

Bug
Description

A cell holding an array formula such as ={1,2} calculates correctly and spills across A1 and B1. Calling rebuildAndRecalculate() turns it into #SPILL!.

The cause is in serialization, not in the rebuild itself.

rebuildAndRecalculate() does not rebuild from the stored formulas. It serializes every sheet, then builds a new engine from that serialized content:

// src/HyperFormula.ts — rebuildWithConfig()
const serializedSheets = this._serialization.withNewConfig(configNewLanguage, this._namedExpressions).getAllSheetsSerialized()

The serializer then writes out the computed spill value for B1 as if it were cell content:

// src/Serialization.ts:64
public getCellSerialized(address: SimpleCellAddress, targetAddress?: SimpleCellAddress): RawCellContent {
  return this.getCellFormula(address, targetAddress) ?? this.getRawValue(address)
}

getCellFormula() deliberately returns undefined for a cell that belongs to an array but is not that array's anchor cell (src/Serialization.ts:48-52). The ?? then falls through to getRawValue(), which returns the spilled value.

For B1 in the example above:

call result
isCellPartOfArray(B1) true
getCellFormula(B1) undefined
getCellSerialized(B1) 2

So the sheet serializes to [["={1,2}", 2]]. B1 now holds a hard-coded 2. The new engine builds from that, ={1,2} has no room to spill into B1, and A1 becomes #SPILL!.

The serialize-then-rebuild round trip is not idempotent for array formulas. The spilled value is baked in as real content, and then blocks its own formula.

Steps to reproduce
import { HyperFormula } from 'hyperformula';

const hf = HyperFormula.buildFromArray([['={1,2}', null]], { licenseKey: 'gpl-v3' });

console.log(hf.getSheetValues(0));      // [[1, 2]]                        correct
console.log(hf.getSheetSerialized(0));  // [["={1,2}", 2]]                 already wrong

hf.rebuildAndRecalculate();

console.log(hf.getSheetValues(0));      // [[#SPILL!, 2]]                  bug
Expected behavior

rebuildAndRecalculate() preserves the array formula result: [[1, 2]].

A cell that is part of an array but is not the array's anchor has no content of its own, so it should serialize to nothing.

Notes

This is not limited to rebuildAndRecalculate(). getSheetSerialized() returns [["={1,2}", 2]] before any rebuild happens. Any save-and-restore flow that round-trips through serialization corrupts array formulas the same way. rebuildAndRecalculate() is just the most visible trigger, because it performs that round trip internally.

Vertical spills fail identically. ={1;2} in A1 serializes as [["={1;2}"], [2]] and yields #SPILL! after a rebuild.

Ordinary formulas are unaffected. =A1+B1 survives a rebuild correctly, so the problem is specific to array formulas.

Reported downstream. This surfaced as handsontable/handsontable#11141. The Handsontable Formulas plugin also calls rebuildAndRecalculate() on its own, on the sheetAdded and sheetRemoved events, so Handsontable users can hit this without ever calling the API themselves — attaching a second grid to a shared engine breaks every array formula in the first grid.

Possibly related: #1287, which covers #SPILL! not clearing when the blocking area is freed. Same area, different defect.

Suggested fix

In getCellSerialized(), return undefined when the address belongs to an array vertex but is not that array's anchor cell, instead of falling through to getRawValue(). That makes the round trip idempotent for array formulas and fixes the save/restore case at the same time.
