Inline Error Message in a table cell

Question

There is a requirement where in an error message is to be thrown in a table cell.
(For eg, when the filed value is getting populated from a VO.Considering the scenario where the value is null for some reasons.)Can anyone suggest to implement the same?

Answer 1

It is possible with the controller coding.
User putAttrDialogMessage method on pageContext.
public void putAttrDialogMessage(OAWebBean webBean,
OAException message)
Registers a dialog message for a web bean that is not based on a view object. The dialog message will be displayed in the message box located in the top section of the current page and also attached to the corresponding region item as an inline message.
The proper way for preserving the bad value which caused the exception is by using OAAttrValException as follows:
OAMessageTextInputBean textField = ....; // webBean in question
OAAttrValException attrEx = new OAAttrValException(
OAAttrValException.TYP_VIEW_OBJECT, // Just default it to ViewObject
null, // View Usage Name as null
null, // The primary key as null
textField.getDataAttributeName(), // The attribute name
value, // The attribute bad value which caused validation failure
"FND", // Message application short name
"ATTR_EXCEPTION_MSG"); // Message code
pageContext.putAttrDialogMessage(textField, attrEx);
Parameters:
webBean - the web bean to which the message belongs
message - an OAException object representing the dialog message. An appropriate message type must be set on the exception object through the constructor.
