Binding Checkbox Group to Context with Dictionary Enum (WD for Java)

Hello,
I see no examples in the documentation of binding a Checkbox Group to a context attribute that references a dictionary type with an enumeration. When I do so in NDS, it shows the checkboxes in the layout together with the values defined in the type's enumeration. However, when running the application, nothing comes up.
Any ideas or examples would be most welcome.
Thanks,
Martin

Hi Armin,
Thanks for the reply. I see now that I based my question on an incorrect assumption: I thought at runtime that the WebDynpro runtime populates the node with attribute nodes representing the values in an enumeration, if the attribute references a dictionary enumeration I see now that this is not the case.
(My theory was that if these elements are there, a selection of checkboxes should be obtainable by querying the relevant node in the context).
However, I still think there is a need for a checkbox group UI element that you can map to an attribute which in turn references a dictionary element with an enumeration, on the one hand to be consistent with the design of the other UI elements in WebDynpro, and also to make it easier for developers to produce such components, so that checkbox options don't have to be coded in a checkbox group.
What I'm proposing is that a UI element is needed representing a checkbox group, in which you can reference a dictionary type with enumeration, such that either:
1. The runtime populates attribute nodes in a node in the context with all the available values in the enumeration, and the selected values can be queried at runtime.
OR
2. Depending on the selection, attribute nodes are created inside the node in the context, one for each selected value.
Just to clear up any confusion: I'm not trying to make the existing CheckBoxGroup element do this. I understand this is not possible. That is why I'm saying a new element is needed that can provide this functionality.
Does this make sense?
Thanks and Regards,
Martin<b></b>

Hi All:

I want to design an application like a simple forum which maybe has many replies.So if i use
the UI technology "web dynpro for java", i will to create UI elements dynamically.How can i control this
dynamical UI elements to keep layout ?

Hi,
yes you can do that....
for exaple if you observe SDN...
you can imagine like....
A big Transparent Container(TC)....
Inside that number of other TCs(depending upon the question nd its replies...)....
In side each TC, again around 9 UIElements....
one for menioning what is the question/reply?
other for your description of question/reply...
other for your name,
displaing your fourm point... etc...
So it will be
for(loop till your (Question+No of replies))
Create Transparent Container....
Add Childs to the Container...
Decide your layout....
In case if you want to know how to create UIElements dynamically....

Bind radio group to table with ADF

Hi,
I've managed to bind a drop down list to a table as follows :
<label for="cardtype">Card Type:*</label>
<select name="cardtype" class="input-box">
<c:forEach var="Row" items="${bindings.cardtype1.rangeSet}" >
<option value="<c:out value='${Row.RvMeaning}'/>">
<c:out value="${Row.RvMeaning}"/>
</option>
</c:forEach>
</select>
The binding is solely for display purposes as the user selection is not stored in the database.
I am unable to do a similar bind for a radio group(display purposes only)
Can anyone help ?

No idea if anyone ever will read this reply, but I'm a dummy and I did spend a day to implement a radio group (radiogroup) with ADF and a common JSP. UIX of course offer more flexibility and possibilities!
I did create a View Object secting values that could be displayed in a LOV. Test this first in order to test the data binding beteen the View Object and the attribuut (here gender) Then remove the LOV and drop the attribuut in your Form as radio group. The iterator created a radio 'box' for each record in the list, here M(ale)/F(emale)/B(oth). The radio group will be used to select the gender that should be searched on a dating site, displaying the gender in multiple languages! That's why fmt:message instead of bean:message was used. Value 'label.gender.${rv.prompt}' will be transformed into:
label.gender.M OR label.gender.F OR label.gender.B
The properties contain the labels in English, Dutch etc.... It should be possible to use a Static list as wel to store the domain values related to your radio group.
<td>
<c:out value="${bindings['Gender2'].label}"/>
</td>
<td>
<c:forEach var="rv" items="${bindings.DCLOVList.displayData}">
<html:radio idName="rv" property="DCLOVList" value="index"/>
<fmt:setBundle basename="view.ApplicationResources"/>
<fmt:message key="label.gender.${rv.prompt}"/>
</c:forEach>
</td>

Problem with bind method of Visibroker 4.5 and 6.5 for java

Hi,
Have you applied patches to DB 4.5.20? There's one in particular that you might need. Please visit the following web page:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/berkeley-db/db/update/4.5.20/patch.4.5.20.html
Patch #2 on that page is the one I'm thinking of (although as long as you're there, I suppose you might as well take both of them).
If that doesn't help, can you build DB in debug mode (configure with enable-debug)? The stack trace shows a SEGV at __rep_process_message+0x1d2 it would be nice to be able to see the Berkeley DB source code line number.
Finally, to answer your question, the Berkeley DB Base replication API doesn't care whether you use TCP/IP or any other transport mechanism, as long as it meets the documented requirements. (It looks as if you're using the Base API, rather than the Replication Manager API.) Please see "Building the communications infrastructure" in the Reference Guide.

Using dictionary in Webdynpro for Java

Hello, I'm very newbie in Webdynpro in Java and I have an issue,
I need that a function returns me 2 fields in 2 variables, but this is not possible in Java, for that reason I have thought to create a structure in the dictionary with 2 fields in order to return one only parameter.
My problem is that I don't know to declare a strucutre in the implementantion, something like :
structure TypeData Name{}
or
struc{}
or something like that.
Do anyone know how to declare structure from the Dictionary in my implementantion's method or any good idea to solve this?
Thanks in advance

Hi Jorge,
What you want to do with the two attributes? If these attributes attached to any UI fields then create two context attributes and assign the values to these attributes in the function. Otherwise, if you want to simply use the values then
- You can concatinate two values into one string with some special character
( ContactID"#"ContacName) and return the string
- You can return a String array with size 2.
- Add two values to a ArrayList and return the ArrayList.

Problems with the ActiveX bridge for Java beans when using third-party .jar

I encountered the following problem when using the ActiveX bridge for a java bean:
I am using JDK 1.4.2_09 and MS Visual Basic 6.0 (SP6). I wrote a java bean called ProcessViewer (my class ProcessViewer inherits from JComponent and implements the interfaces Serializable and AdjustmentListener) which I would like to use within a VB 6.0 application. I used the ActiveX bridge (packager.exe) to generate a DLL (ProcessViewer.dll) and registered it successfully. The java bean GUI-control works fine within my VB 6.0 application unless my java bean (ProcessViewer.jar) uses any third-party .jar files.
But when I tried to add a reference to some third-party class (com.sap.xxx.xxx....) I got some problems. I could solve the problem with packager.exe by setting the correct CLASSPATH. But at runtime my VB 6.0 application does not work. It crashes or it reports an error like this: "The control ... could not be loaded from axbridge.dll" (although I deployed my .jar file correctly to the directory C:\Programme\Java\j2re1.4.2_09\axbridge\bin and lib). Setting the CLASSPATH environment variable before calling my VB 6.0 application (exe) did not solve the problem.
How can I teach my VB 6.0 application (containing the Java bean ActiveX control) where to find the third-party .jar file? Copying the third-party .jar file to the JRE lib-folder or to the axbridge\lib folder did not solve the problem either.
I studied the documentation about the ActiveX bridge given at:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/beans/axbridge/developerguide/index.html
but I am missing informations on how the third-party .jar files can be found during runtime of the ActiveX container (e. g. a VB 6.0 application).

Thanks

Hi Armin,
I am trying to create a Checkbox group. I created a value attribute and binded it to simple datatype containg list of items in enumeration. Then I binded the Checkbox group "texts" property with the value attribute.
In the layout wizard all items are visible but at runtime none of them is visible.
Cardinality of node containing the value arrtibute is 0..n. I have checked it for 1..n also.
Please tell me what could be the possible reason behind it.
thanks in advance!

Problems with CR used by a Java app when converting from WebSphere v5 to v6

Background: I have been assigned support of an old Java app, currently running just fine in a WebSphere v5 environment. It uses CR to produce 4 reports. Running the app in the WebSphere 6 environment, 2 work and 2 don't. (!?!?)
I don't know what version of CR the reports were originally designed in - nor do the people who produced them 6 years ago. I have tried installing (and uninstalling) various versions of CR on my PC (v7, v8, v8.5, v9, v10, v11) to see if I can find one that would work with the .RPT files. None do. Either I get a warning that the report file is in an old format and saving it will prevent its use by the older version - whatever that may be...; or it opens the report, but when I click on the Database tab on the menu bar, CR locks up my machine.
It has been decided by my management that it would be best to just upgrade to CR vXI and continue from there. The XI 'developers edition' is what I am currently running. However, when I open the .RPT file (one of the ones that work), it takes about 5 minutes; then when I click on the Database menu item, it locks-up my pc.
I have other experience using (back-versions of) CR, but have never run into anything like this. Has anyone had any experience with upgrading reports designed for Java to the vXI? Can you provide me with any information, hints, suggestions about how I might proceed?
Thank you, in advance, for any assistance you might be able to render. Regards,
Jeff Emslie.

Hi, Jadie.
Thanks for the quick response. It may be the original report definition was designed pointing to SQL/Server v7, then was being overriden by the Java code to SQL v2k - which we are about to convert away from... I have no experience integrating CR into a Java app. I don't know how the data source specification works with Java. That is why the first thing I'm trying to do is to look at the Database connection: to see how its done.
As for the version it was originally written in; I don't know what it is. No one here knows. I have tried every (old) version of CR we have in the shop (list above). None seem to work correctly with these .RPT files. Do you know of a way to determine the CR version of an unknown .RPT file?
Thanks,
Jeff.

Problem with checkbox group in row popin of table.

In table row popin I have kept Check Box Group.I have mapped the texts property of checkbox group to the attribute which is under the subnode of the table.the subnode properties singleton=false,selectioncardinality=0-n,and cardinality=0-n.
if there are 'n' number of records in the table.each record will have its own row popin and in the row popin there is check box group.
the check box group in the row popin belongs to that perticular row.
but the checkboxegroup values in row popins of all the rows are getting changed to the row which is lead selected.
The same scenario (table in the row popin is showing the values corresponding to its perticular row and all the table values in popin are not getting changed to the one lead selected in the main table)is working fine with the table in place of checkbox group in row popin with datasource property of table binded to the subnode
I cant trace out the problem with checkbox group in place of table.
Please help me in this regard.I have to place check box group in place of table in row popin.
Thanks and Regards
Kiran Kumar K

I have done the same thing successfully with normal check box ui element. Try using check box in your tabel cell editor instead of check box group.

Checkbox group selected property binding not working

Hi,
I've been through all the threads and tutorials relating to this problem and none of them help.
The Situation
I have a checkbox group which I have bound the items items property to a MySQL database (value field = int, display field = String). I have bound the Selected property to a sessionbean field which is an int[] array.
I have a processValueChange event for my checkbox group which grabs the selected boxes values (ie the int value of the checkbox id). Based on these values it does some other processing.
The Problem
When the page loads everything is displayed ok. When I select a checkbox within the checkbox group the getSelected() method returns the int value of the selected checkbox and perform other processing as necessary... so far so good.
However, when the page finishes processing and reloads the selected checkboxes are not ticked. I'm sure it has something to do with the Selected property of the checkboxgroup but I can't for the life of me work out why. For multiselect objects the Selected property must be bound to an array which I have done with my int[] array. I've tried preloading the array with default values (1, 2, etc) to mimic the int values from the database. I've tried changing the array to a boolean array but this throws exceptions. So basically i'm stuck.
The Source
Session Bean
    private int[] extras;
    public int[] getExtras() {
        return this.extras;
    public void setExtras(int[] extras) {
        this.extras = extras;

ok, i found the problem. MySQL int value is treated as an Integer in Creator. I changed my SessionBean array from int[] to Integer[] and now it works properly... phew!!!

Visual Web JSF: Rendering a checkbox group with some checkboxes preselected

Dear Sirs and Madams,
I am a Visual Web JSF newbie and have been humbled by this one issue: I have User value objects which hold a List attribute of what user privileges they have. Am trying to render a checkbox group of user privileges for a chosen user with some user privileges already checked (the ones the user already has), and some not checked (potential privileges to give to the user) for the EditAUsersPrivileges page. Is this even possible? If so, how?
Profusely thanking you in advance,
Phoenix

Of course, use the value attribute of the component and set it to EL representing the desired property.

Data into a checkbox group

Hi all,
My conttext is MonthsOfYear--Node
                     MonthName--attribute
here i have to populate checkbox group with values as "Jan","Feb"....."Dec"and display the selected months in to a table....
Wat the problem here is By default Jan is getting selected and getting displayed in table eventhought we select something else than jan it is not getting considered...
the code i used for this is
String[] monthNames = new String []
             "January", "February", "March", "April",
             "May", "June", "July", "August",
             "September", "October", "November", "December",
     List monthsOfYear = new ArrayList();
     for (int i = 0; i < monthNames.length; ++i)
          IPrivateChkView.IMonthsOfYearElement Myear=wdContext.createMonthsOfYearElement();
          Myear.setMonthName(monthNames<i>);
          monthsOfYear.add(Myear);
     wdContext.nodeMonthsOfYear().bind(monthsOfYear);

My guess is that the "initializeLeadSelection" property is set to true for context node "MonthsOfYear". Therefore, the first element in the checkbox group is selected by default. Either unset this property at designtime or clear the lead selection in the controller (e.g. in the wdDoInit method or the supply function of the node).
To keep the table in synch with the selected checkboxes, assign an action to the CheckBoxGroup.onSelect event. In the action handler, update the table data source node according to the selected entries (or invalidate the node and update its elements in a supply function).
