Custom component accessing data

I am trying to build a custom component that utilizes the
datagrid. I want to create a class that loads in xome XML and
populates the datagrid. The datagrid's ID is not available in the
class's load.COMPLETE event handler, so I cannot populate the
datagrid from the class. I then tried making a public property in
the class that holds the XML, but, still I run into problems,
because that property is null before the XML is loaded, so I cannot
access it outside the class until the load is complete anyways. So,
I guess the question is, what would be the best practice for
passing data, loaded from a class, to a custom component.

Events.
There are some examples in the archives.

Access data in custom component.

Hi Everyone,
                I am new to Flex soo pardon me if my questions are quite basic. I have searched a lot before posting here, might be I was not looking in the right direction. Please redirect me to the path that leads to the solution of the problem. I really appreciate any help that I can get.
I'm followiing this video tutorial.
http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play.php?id=100
All was going fine, until the tutor wanted to add custom component in the application. He added the HBox which I couldn't find in Flash Builder 4.6 so I added HGroup instead in my new component. Now when I want to use the data that was fetched in the parent component in custom component it gives me error. Here is the code and their file names.

What needs to be done to use the item renderer right in custom component ? Please tell me the solution to it... I'm stuck on it for quite a few time.

Hello Ravi,
one option is the create a public attribute to share your value note data with other components.
Another option is a function group with two function modules "SET_" and "GET_".
I´m sure one of the webclient UI Gurus here in this forum could share less "dirty" ways with you.
Kind regards

How to handle custom component data on overviewset save button CRM UI

Hi,

Custom component data binding

Hey people,
I'm trying to write a custom component which extends from JPanel (has a List<?>). It will basically display some sub-panels on itself by considering the underlying data (database table rows). I want to have the same functionality with JTable binding. I'm having difficulty listening changes occur on the list. How can I listen to changes inside the list in my JPanel component? Should I write a custom model? or Should I use a ObservableList? any suggestions are welcome..

Actually, it's not a JList. My component is a custom JPanel which has an underlying collection to hold data. I'm binding this underlying collection to an ObservableList which is filled with the result set fetched from the database. It's a standart ArrayList<?> and I want to listen to the changed that made to this list.
MyPanel extends JPanel {
private List<Person> list = new ArrayList<Person>();
}I'd like to see any changes made to the list inside MyPanel class.

Unselecting Data List in custom component

Hi,
I am trying to make a dropdown menu. I've followed instructions here: http://cookbooks.adobe.com/post_Creating_a_custom_combobox_component_using_Flash_C-17234.h tml and it works well but there is a problem.
Here's what I did.
Created a custom component with 2 parts. Toggle Button and Datalist. then I set up the states appropriately. When I select a specific item on the datalist, I go to a different screen state but I share that button across the states (it's basically a menu option). That part works great.
Here's my problem:
On my datalist, I have a "on select" event which takes me to the right screen state. However, When I come back to that component, the datalist still has that item selected.
Is there a way to "deselect" something on the datalist when I move from one state to another? Or to force the selectedIndex to be -1 whenever the datalist appears?
Thanks!
- Jana

In which part of the timeline did you add this action? Inside the datalist? I don't see the property "selected index"

Unable to Edit the View in Custom Component

Hi Experts,
Please help me to resolve this issue !
I am unable to lock the BOL Entity in my custom component using BTAdminH. I have written the below code in the Edit event Handler for Edit Button. The lr_entity->lock( ) condition statement is getting false and it is skipping the "set_view_editable( me )." code statement. Why??
This is code excerpt that I have taken from edit button of the BP_HEAD/AccountViewSet and altered to my component/View
DATA: lr_entity     TYPE REF TO cl_crm_bol_entity,
        lr_controller TYPE REF TO cl_ZVKH8_bspwdcomponent_impl.
TRY.
      lr_controller ?= me->comp_controller.
      lr_entity ?= lr_controller->typed_context->btadminh->collection_wrapper->get_current( ).
IF lr_entity IS BOUND.
IF lr_entity->IS_LOCKED EQ abap_false.
    IF le_entity->IS_CHANGEABLE EQ abap_true.
       IF lr_entity->lock( ) EQ abap_true.
        me->view_group_context->set_view_editable( me ).
       ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.
and when I directly executed the below code in the Edit event Handler for Edit Button I am receiving the dereferencing NULL value exception. Why in my custom component in many places this happening??
me->view_group_context->set_view_editable( me ).
Exception Details
CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL - Dereferencing of the NULL reference
Method: ZL_ZVKH8_DETAILSEF_IMPL=>EH_ONBACK
Thanks,

Hi Summit & NishaNC,
Thanks for your responses !
As suggested, I have debugged the code for ->lock( ) method and there are exceptions raised from some methods.
Method GET_LOCK () -> Method GET_ROOT () ->Method GET_PARENT ()
At GET_ROOT( ) method i have received an exception
"Root entity BTAdminH could not be determined" and one more "Entity BTAdminH could not be locked"
Later when I have checked in MODEL Browser, I found that the BOL object "BTAdminH" for my view is an Access object and not the Root Object.
Hence, I have a question? Does the locking can be done only for ROOT Objects?
If this is TRUE then I think this is the major problem with my custom component where even the cross component navigation is also not happening and in many places I am receiving "Dereferencing NULL Value" information.
Also I have gone through some of the Threads and one information that I found from Sumit Mittal
1. An access object is an independent entity, has primary keys of its own.
2. A root object is a special access object that is at the top of the hierarchy based on business rules.
3. A dependent object's primary keys are supplied by access objects and it's lifetime is bound to them. If the parent object is destroyed, the dependent object is also destroyed.
4. Search objects are query objects useful for querying root objects
5. Search result objects - Search objects return the results in the form of a result object together with a relation pointing to the root object.
6. View objects - ?
7. Dynamic search objects - Used in advanced search, supports ranges and operators
Could you please specify in which scenarios we have to go for Access Objects and Root Objects
Thanks,
Bujji

Problem with inputText in my custom component

Hi, I have a custom dataTable component that I'm trying to get to work. It has to be a custom component because dataTable doesn't support rowspan, colspan, multi line headers, and a rendered attribute for rows. The problem is, that when I wrap the column tag inside my row tag then the method for the inputText tag never gets called in the UPDATE_MODEL_VALUES phase.
I'm starting to think that JSF doesn't support 2 levels of tags between the inputText and dataTable. I'm hoping that someone can tell me what I have wrong with my components.
Here is the JSP snippet.
<cjsf:rptTable>
     <cjsf:data id="dataTable1" value="#{allAuthUser.tableRows}" var="myTableRow1">
          <cjsf:row>
               <cjsf:col>
                    <h:inputText id="tableTestFld" value="#{myTableRow1.testFld}" size="5" maxlength="5"/>
               </cjsf:col>
          </cjsf:row>
     </cjsf:data>
</cjsf:rptTable>Here is what it renders. It looks to me like everything renders fine. So I'm guessing that there is something in a component that is causing JSF during the life cycle to not be able to process correctly.
<table>
     <tbody>
          <tr>
               <td><input id="tblmaintForm:body:dataTable1_0:tableTestFld" name="tblmaintForm:body:dataTable1_0:tableTestFld" type="text" value="" maxlength="5" size="5"/></td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
               <td><input id="tblmaintForm:body:dataTable1_1:tableTestFld" name="tblmaintForm:body:dataTable1_1:tableTestFld" type="text" value="" maxlength="5" size="5"/></td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
               <td><input id="tblmaintForm:body:dataTable1_2:tableTestFld" name="tblmaintForm:body:dataTable1_2:tableTestFld" type="text" value="" maxlength="5" size="5"/></td>
          </tr>
     </tbody>
</table>Note: If I leave off the row tag it renders the same way except of course the <tr> and </tr> tags are missing. If I do this, then the backing method for the inputText tag is called and everything works fine. Why doesn't it work with the row tag in place?
Here are the components:
public class UIRptTable extends UIComponentBase {
     public UIRptTable() {
          setRendererType("tblmaint.rptTableRenderer");
     public String getFamily() {
          return "javax.faces.Output";

Hi, Ray!
1) I was trying to put a button in the column header (for sorting) and I couldn't get that to work. That involved the >colhdr tag. I got that to work but I don't remember the fix. I'll look it up and reply back with that when I can.Dealing the first part of your trouble, you need NOT a custom component.
I have looked through the implementation of RepeaterRenderer, as you advised me, and found that the multi-header possibility is included in the implementation of dataTable control.
The code below is the part of source of repeater.jsp with only change:
<d:data_repeater>  <h:dataTable>
And it works fine.
<h:dataTable id="table"
binding="#{RepeaterBean.data}"
     rows="5"
value="#{RepeaterBean.customers}"
var="customer">
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="Customer List"/>               <!� First Header row -- >
</f:facet>
<h:column>
<%-- Visible checkbox for selection --%>

How do you reference a valueObject located in main to a custom component created in Catalyst?

Hello,
I have been working with the Catalyst Beta 2 / Flash Builder beta trying to create a photogallery and have hit a little bit of a snag, try as I might I can't seem to find the answer anywhere. I am still new to Flex so please excuse me if this is a basic question, I have been trying to understand more about Flex to make my designs in Catalyst better.
I found this video on Adobe TV: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/rich-internet-applications-101/ria-stepbystep-16-binding-a-data- service-to-flash-builder-components/
It's wonderful and I have the datalist I created in Catalyst working with the XML file I generated but I designed my little photogallery a bit diffrent, I created a Custom Component in Catalyst so that when you click an item on the DataList it pop's up a little screen with a larger photo in on it, rather then having an image in the main application. Now my problem seems to be that I can't refrence the valueObject I created with the wizard as it's in my Main.mxml file, is there a way to refrence it from my Custom Component so the larger image will display? Is there a way to let the component know which item on the dataList in the main application is selected and display the correct image?
I should also say I really enjoy working with the Beta for both Flash Builder / Catalyst, thanks for the hard work!
Thanks for the help,
Chris

I am afraid you cannot bind to static properties in Windows Store Apps. It is simply not supported.
You could create a proxy class that exposes the static command property and bind to this property of an instance of the proxy object:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14186175/bind-to-a-static-field-in-windows-8-xaml
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4708711/how-can-i-use-the-xstatic-extension-for-phone7-silverlight-apps
You will of course have to create an instance of the proxy object. There is no way around this.

Want Access Data Grid control in SharePoint 2013?

Hello everyone!
Recently we noticed something funny in SharePoint 2013. While quite many people were hoping to have the datasheet view like those in SP2007 and 2010, Microsoft has chosen a different interface to display datasheet view.
Now, if you try to create a sub site under a publishing site, and use the
Publishing Site template then try to create a datasheet view in the sub site, SharePoint will try to use the Access data grid control to display the view. In some situations the view will display and other situations it will not, and will show this
error:
The list is displayed in Standard view. It cannot be displayed in Datasheet view for one or more of the following reasons: A datasheet component compatible with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation is not installed, your browser does not support ActiveX controls,
a component is not properly configured for 32-bit or 64-bit support, or support for ActiveX controls is disabled.
If you create a sub site using Publishing Site with Workflow instead, then the datasheet view will be created properly using SP2013 interface.
Using PowerShell, we can see that both Publishing Portal and
Publishing Site With Workflow are using the BLANKINTERNET 53 template. The
Publishing Site on the other hand is using the CMSPUBLISHING 39 template.
Want to try it out and let me know if that happens to your SharePoint too?

Hi Conway,
I tested the issue in my environment per your description and it returned the results as below:
I created a subsite using Publishing site under a team site in SharePoint server 2013, the datasheet view in a list displayed as pic1
I reproduced the issue in SharePoint server 2010, the datasheet view in a list displayed as pic2
It turns out by design the datasheet view in the subsite based on Publishing site template displays as your situation. Here is an article which explains this:

Decode-method for custom component isn't called

Hi,
i have writen a custom component which gets some information by command-link. To make the data from the link accessible, i wrote a decode method in my renderer and in me component. But both method are not called from the faces framework.
Dows anybody knows what i made wrong???
Thanks, Sebastian

Hi,
thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately the processDecodes(...) of my component is also not called from the framework. Does anybody knows what i'm making wrong???
Thanks!

Advice on creating a tricky custom component

Hi,
I'm working on creating a custom component which displays a image at the top of the canvas, and loops through a passed array collection, displaying each row of the array collection in a item renderer. So the component should look like this (see attached image).
As you can see from this image the header is a image itself, this will differ every instance of the panel, there should be 3 of these panels on the page. Then each row of data is a item renderer displaying the data provided from a array collection of value object. If there are 4 items in this array collection then the panel should show 4 rows, if there are 2 row in the array then the panel will display 2 rows. Also the height of the panel will dynamically change depending on the number of rows to show.
I was thinking of extending a Canvas component, and then passing in the image URL and trying to load and draw the image dynamically, then I was thinking of using the Drawing API to create the rectangle shape using the drawRoundRectComplex() of the graphics class.
The problems I see with this is that I don't think the drawn rectangle shape can re-draw itself to show the change in height when more or less row of data need to be be displayed.
Another option I have been thinking about is extending the Panel class to create my component, this may be better for handling the height resizing, but I'm not sure it can support the look of this component (the header image and the three rounded corners).
Could anyone give me some advice on what would be the better option for creating this component.
Thanks
Stephen

How to create custom component in CRM 2007

Hi.
I am new for the CRM 2007 Web UI.
Here we have CRM_UI_FRAME.
Like this so many Components are there.
I want how to create our own component.
I created it as follows.
Open the Transaction code bsp_wd_cmpwb.
Provide Z Name in the Component.
Zcomponent
Press Create button.
Go to Run Time Repository.
Press Change Mode.
Create a MODEL as ALL.
GO to Browser Component Structre.
Select View.
Provide View name.
Create the View.
Go to view Layout.
Provide the code like this.
<%@page language="abap"%>
<%@ extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb"%>
<%@ extension name="xhtmlb" prefix="xhtmlb"%>
<%@ extension name="crm_bsp_ic" prefix="crmic"%>
<%@ extension name="bsp" prefix="bsp"%>
<cthmlb:overviewFormConfig/>
Create the context under the context.
Go to Configuration tab.
Assigne the Attributes to the Screen.
GO to the Run Time Repository.
press change mode.
Assigne the view name to the Window.
Save it.
Test the Componet. But it is not diaply anything on the screen.
How i will get the data into the web UI.
Can anybody expalin about this one to me with screen shorts if possible.
I want add some fields into the web UI. Provide some values into that. Capture the values.
Navigate the data from one screen to another screen. How it is possible. I did not understand.
If i am changing any screens in the pre define component it shows dump.
So, now i need Custom component with adding of the fields.
Please give me proper information regarding this one.
Thank You.
Krishna. B.

Hi,
Try put the htmlb to show a field:
<thtmlb:label design="LABEL" for="//<context>/<field>" text="<field>"/>
<thtmlb:inputField id="<field>" maxlength="31" size="20" value="//<context>/<field>"/>
In order to get value, you can write a simple code in the event_handler:
LR_BOL type ref to IF_BOL_BO_PROPERTY_ACCESS
LR_BOL = ME->TYPED_CONTEXT-><context>->COLLECTION_WRAPPER->get_current()
var1 = LR_BOL->GET_PROPERTY_AS_STRING('FIELD').
take a look at lr_bol methods so that you can see the set and get methods.
Regards,
Renato.

Using itemCreationPolicy with a custom component

I'm working on a project where the users need to be able to have a 'filtered' view of one of the edit dialogs. I'm using view states to control which of the input fields show up for each view. The 'save' logic is the same for both states, so I still need to be able to pull data for the inputs even if they are not currently displayed. I tried setting itemCreationPolicy to immediate with no success. Some of the inputs were getting created but the initial values were not being set. The issue seems to be that the input component (an extended version of DropDownList) defers setting the selected value until the commitProperties() method. Since the inpit isn't actually being shown, the commitProperties() method is never getting called and the value is never being set.
Can anyone suggest a workaround for this issue? The only thing I can think of would be to use includeInLayout and visible to show/hide the inputs, but that is going to get really messy since I would have to apply it to every input and the FormItem components that enclose them.

Jasmin,
Is your class included in the custom component?
Yes, It is a annotated entity class,
When creating sessionFactory it is not loading the class.
i'm using flowing code block for creating sessionFactory,
factory =
new AnnotationConfiguration().addAnnotatedClass(dao.entity.UserEntity.
class).setProperty(
"hibernate.dialect",m_dialect ).setProperty(
"hibernate.connection.driver_class", m_driverClass).setProperty(
"hibernate.connection.url", m_connectionUrl ).setProperty(
"hibernate.connection.username",m_userName).setProperty(
"hibernate.connection.password", m_password).setProperty(
"hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto", m_hbmTodll ).setProperty(
"current_session_context_class",m_contextClass ).configure(resource).buildSessionFactory();
Is the jar referenced in the class patch section of the component.xml?
Yes , I have tried for this approch too , but class is entity class is not loaded.
