I have a StaticTextItem myItem and I would like to set a List of selected in a ListGrid myListGrid items as its value. myListGrid's data is being set via setData(Record[])
For my purpose, I know I can do myItem.setValueField(xxx) but I also need to do a myItem.setOptionDataSource(DataSource). I think I should set the same data as in myListGrid, but I don't know how to convert it from type Record[] into a DataSource object, so that I can use it.
Can you, please, help?
Thanks!
You need I think to:
Instantiate a DataSource
Create its fields with new DataSourceField to get the same data structure as your ListGrid
And add the fields created by invoking setFields() method
Set the data origin of your DataSource by invoking setTestData() method
Hope it could help

I need to get the Title of a project rather than the name of it. This can be done using the ProjectSummaryInfoEx method for the application object but I'm not sure how to get this line to return the value I need. Without any commands, it simply opens up the Summary info dialog box, and any inputs I provide come back as an invalid argument.
Any help anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.
I suggest using:
ActiveProject.BuiltinDocumentProperties("Title")
or a property of the Project object such as:
ActiveProject.Name
References: Application object, Project object, BuiltinDocumentProperties
In addition to Rachel's answers, you can also use this:
ActiveProject.Tasks.UniqueID(0).Name
UID zero will always be the project summary task, and the name property will be the title of the project.
I know how to get an item of the particular table. Like for user we can have
$userItem = Engine_Api::_()->getItem("user", $userId);
or for a custom table
$customItem = Engine_Api::_()->getItem("custom", $customeId);
I want to know the code or method how can I make my $customItem to work the same way as $userItem works for users table. So that I can get data or manipulate the data of custom table
Thanks for your help. :-)
You can achieve that by creating a model. Check how it's done in /application/modules/User/Model. There is User.php file that declares User_Model_User and methods available for User such as getTitle, get Href etc.
You may use similar approach for your custom item. You will also need to create a file similar to /application/modules/User/Model/DbTable/User.php to declare table for your custom items.
As the title states, I've been wiring up the rbl_viewController outlet in my XIBs, however on a closer read of the RBLViewController API, this property does seem to get set automatically.
Is it necessary to set rbl_viewController when using Rebel's RBLViewController?
Looks like you don't! rbl_viewController is assigned within RBLViewController's -setView: method.
I am attempting to assign a unique id to each table row in Yii's CGridView.
Preferably something like $data->id from the database table.
I have been unsuccessful at adding an id attribute to each rendered <tr>.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
CGridView have an option called 'rowHtmlOptionsExpression' , you can declare like the followings to assign row an id
'rowHtmlOptionsExpression' => 'array("id"=>$data->id)',
It's better than hacking into 'rowCssClassExpression'
Good luck !
Modern solution (since Yii 1.1.13)
This is now possible to do using the rowHtmlOptionsExpression attribute, which allows assigning arbitrary HTML attributes to each rendered table row. For example:
'rowHtmlOptionsExpression' => '["id" => $data->id]'
Original answer (earlier versions)
Not directly possible because CGridView does not support it, but there are a couple of straightforward solutions that you can try.
Subclass CGridView (good)
Simply create your own class MyGridView extends CGridView and override the renderTableRow method to spit out ids on every row. Have a look at the stock implementation, which does for the class attribute exactly what you 'd like to do for the id attribute.
Use a CSS class instead (not so good)
Speaking of class attributes, the rowCssClassExpression property can be used to dynamically generate classes out of the box. IMHO this is a bad workaround, but it's there.
You could extend CGridView to add that functionality.
or be a bit hacky with rowCssClassExpression.
'rowCssClassExpression' => '\'" data-id="\' . $data->rowID'
Try the information I posted here:
How to set key value in CGrideView when grid is populated from table-view
In essence, as long as your dataprovider to the CGridview provides the data->id in a form that it understands, it will auto handle the $data->id stuff for you automatically so that it's easily available to javascript.
CGridView.rowHtmlOptionsExpression is undefined
I don't think that we can use rowHtmlOptionsExpression
I am following an article that explains how to use the ICustomAttributeDataHandler class.
I am creating a custom column for the inbox screen, but the problem is that the value I set for my custom attribute is not being reflected on the screen.
As a test I am changing the task name to "whoKnows". But this code is not effecting what is output on the screen:
ICustomAttributeRecordSet.setCustomAttributeValue(i, "taskName", "whoKnows");
(I am able to print debug lines from my custom class when the inbox is viewed, so I know my code is being run.)
Someone on the comments of that article wrote:
the user must call the
"setCustomAttributesInQuery() method
on the dataprovider passing in a
string array of the custom attributes
...what does that meen? Could this be my problem?
thanks.
To be honest, I have already used Webtop, but just as an user. I found a post in the dm developer discussion group that can be useful, though:
For creating a custom column in the
doclist you dont need to go through
this complex procedures. You can use
custom attribute datahandlers for
this.
First in your object list component xml file add your custom column
definition in the "columns" tag. You
can even add static columns instead of
the documentum attributes.
Now create a class which implements the ICustomAttributeDataHandler.
Implement the default the methods getRequiredAttributes and the getData
function.
In getRequiredAttributes add attributes of the object that you are
looking for.
In your getdata method retrieve each row and then based on the
attribute that you see, just set the
value that you want to. 6) Finally
define your class in the app.xml file
There is a section in WDK developement
guide regarding
ICustomAttribuetDataHandlers. Look for
the topic named "Adding custom
attributes to a datagrid".
I'm not sure if this is the final solution, but I hope it helps!
To answer you question about setCustomAttributesInQuery()
every datagrid in WDK is backed by an underlying data provider. You can get this proivder by using the following code.
Datagrid datagrid = (Datagrid)getControl("doclist_grid",com.documentum.web.form.control.databound.Datagrid.class);
DataProvider dp = datagrid.getDataProvider();
Once you've done that, you can call
dp.setCustomAttributesInQuery(myArr);
I'm not actually sure if this is part of the solution to your problem, but you could try this and see where it gets you.
You have to configure the inbox component.
if using classic view, go to inboxlist component and add your custom attribute.
<column>
<attribute>CustomAttributeName</attribute>
<label>Custom Attribute Label</label>
<visible>true</visible>
</column>
Your custom attribute has to be in a custom type that is a sub type of dmi_queue_item, because inboxlist shows only dmi_queue_item objects.
Hope this helps,

This may be a non-issue, but based on your code, I can't tell if you're doing this:
ICustomAttributeRecordSet.setCustomAttributeValue(i, "taskName", "whoKnows");
or this:
ICustomAttributeRecordSet rs;
rs.setCustomAttributeValue(i, "taskName", "whoKnows");
You should be calling the setCustomAttributeValue method on the rs object instance, not on the interface.
