Custom component in Xcelsius Online
Dear All,
You know, the Xcelsius Online seems not to support the custom component and even I upload a local template , the custom component can not be displayed in BIOD nomally.
But my customers want some particular dashboard for example which includes Gmap etc..
Is there any imformation about when they will be supports?
Best,
Ra.

Yuyi,
With BIOD, we don't officially support Xcelsius online and it is still in beta. That's why we don't have features like this documented.
As a workaround, you can make a dataset a web service in BIOD and use Xcelsius designer to connect to it and then publish it to BIOD. You have to have an organization account to make this work.

Custom Component Error -- Uggh
I have tried to solve the problem using online resouces, 3rd party message boards, Xcelsius tutorials, the textbook "Xcelsius 2008: Dashboard Best Practices", tutorials which came with the Xcelsius SDK, among others, however, I continue to run into problems. Additionally, I am have tried to fix by reading the Flex 3 SDK, Xcelsius 2008 SDK, and the samples for Xcelsius/Flex which came bundled in the SDK.
The problem is that the custom component, created in Flex 3 Hotfix and brought into Xcelsius using the Add-on Packager and the Add-on Manager does not display on the canvas. While all of the inherent components in Xcelsius work correctly the custom component does not display. When dropped on the canvas it simply disappears and never instatiates on the canvas and also is not listed inside the object browser. The custom component is, however, listed in the vertical menu under the category Add-Ons.
Example:
1. I use a sample Flex project which was included in the Xcelsius SDK and bring it into Flex 3 builder.
2. I configure the project to run appropriately in my local environment
3. I build the project successfully.
4. I open the Xcelsius Add-on Packager
4a. In the GENERAL tab I give the package a name
4b. In the VISUAL tab I type the name of the class (i.e. com.business.dept.project )
4c. In the VISUAL tab I type the display name (i.e. Email Component)
4d. In the VISUAL tab I type the directory location of the .swf (i.e. C:\Xcelsius\Flex\Project\Email\emailcomponent.swf )
4e. In the VISUAL tab I type the directory location of the property sheet (i.e. C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Xcelsius\SDK\bin\propertyinspector.swc )
4f. In the BUILD tab I build the component sucessfully
5. I open Xcelsius and go to File -- Manage Add-Ons
6. I add the new emailcomponent.xlx file to the Add-on Manager and select Close
7. I exit Xcelsius and reopen Xcelsius
8. The new component is listed in the vertical menu under Components -- Add-Ons
9. I test the function of inherent objects and drag a pie chart successfully onto the canvas of Xcelsius
10. I drag my new component onto the canvas, and while there is a visible border outline of the object as I drag over the canvas, when I drop the component onto the canvas the object does NOT appear on the canvas.
11. I re-test another inherent componet in Xcelsius which works fine
12. I re-test my component with the same failure.
Thank you for the assistance in advance.
Alex DoveI have successfully created a Flex component in Xcelsius. The data is static and hard coded into the Flex component which is not ideal, but it certainly is a step in the right direction.
My steps were as follows:
1. Create a new Flex project
2. Create a new Flex component and save it into the class namespace directory I was planning on using
3. Include all of the MXML logic for the application in the component file
4. Reference the component file in the Application file as a namespace reference
5. Save the file
6. Create an .xlx file using the Xcelsius Add-on Packager
7. Typing the class namespace location using the entire path and file name without the extension
8. Loading the new component into Xcelsius
9. Building the app.
Success.
Thank you for all the help

Custom component property value handling at run time
I would like to develop simple custom component which has three properties PROP1, PROP2 & RESULT . These parameters are bound to excel sheet cells as follows..
cell A1 connected to PROP1
cell A2 connected to PROP2 and
cell A3 connected to RESULT.
In excel A1 cell has excel formula set as =IF(A2<5,10,0).
Custom component would be simple button display at runtime and on click of the same, I would like to perform following actions in sequence with N number of times.
1. First push any random number to PROP2. (which is simple task, I believe)
2. Pick new value of PROP1 which is changed due to existance of excel formula (+ using dispatchevent I could able to pass value to excel cell A2. But not able to read new value of PROP1+)
3. check new PROP1 value equal to 10. If it is 10 then count it otherwise again push new random value to PROP2.
4. Continue step 1 to 3 till N number of times. and finally
4. Push number of counts for PROP1 value 10 to RESULT parameter.
All the parameters are bindable (getter/setter with [Bindable]) in Flex component application and flex propertysheet application use binding ID to bind with cell address. with binding direction BOTH and SINGLETON
Here is flex function code which triggered at button click.
public function test002():void {
while ( N < 100)
this.PROP2 = Math.round(Math.random()*1000);
dispatchEvent(new PropertyChangeEvent(PropertyChangeEvent.PROPERTY_CHANGE, false, false, PropertyChangeEventKind.UPDATE, "PROP2", null, PROP2, this));
if (this.PROP1 == 10)
cnt++;
this.RESULT = cnt;
My observations are as follows.
- new push of value to PROP2 get reflected to excel A2 when button click event is over, not at the time of while loop process execution.
- Also I observed PROP1 value never changes and it is the value which is recorded just before button click event of component at run time and remain the same till button click event is over.
- Further to this I notice as click event is over, new value of PROP2 reflected in cell A2 and change value (if it passes IF formula of excel ) in A1 as well. Next button click action takes these new A1 and A2 values in consideration and process the function "test002".
I would like to understand possibility of custom component event execution process, which can able to pass as well as read value from component parameters to underlying excel with changes due to excel formula existance. If it is not limitations (If so) what is the set of commands which can be helpful to achieve this. I appreciate if anybody explain typical event execution required in such scenarios with some actionscript code directions.
Thanks

I have tried your solution. It works well immediately after xcelsius dashboard get displayed or preview. It does not wait click event to happen. So I modified further by adding one switch ( "switch001" in code piece shown below) to control iteration by click event. That stops running of iteration immediate after dashboard display.
In order to see iteration I have to click twice on button. First click does send "frm" parameter value to excel and excel formula operates. The excel formula result send back to component via SETTER of "frmResult" . But it stops over there. If I click second time the iteration starts for 100 times.
Also I try to export this to PDF. PDF file get generated. If I try to open PDF file it raise error.
My code is attached here.
"frm" is the parameter that sends random number to excel.
"frmResult" parameter receives excel formula output and send it back to component.
"test()" function operate on button click event and set switch001 and then calls "Calc" function for iterations.
MXML code..........
<mx:VBox>
<mx:TextInput id="frmResultLabel" width="100" />
<mx:Button label="test..." click="test()"/>
</mx:VBox>
Actionscript code
public var cnt:int;
public var N:int = 0;
public var sum:int = 0;
public var switch001:Boolean = false;
public function test():void {
N = 0;
sum = 0;
switch001 = true;
public function Calc():void {
if (switch001 == true)
if (N < 100)
this.frm = Math.round(Math.random() * 1000);
else if (N == 100) // return the result
this.frmResult = sum;
// Label component use to display frm and frmResult values at runtime
frmResultLabel.text = sum.toString() + ">" + this.frm + ">" + this.frmResult;
N++;
[Bindable]
private var _frm:int;
private var _frmChanged:Boolean = true;
[Bindable]
public function get frm():int
return _frm;
public function set frm(value:int):void
//if (value == null) value = 0;
if (_frm != value)
_frm = value;
_frmChanged = true;
invalidateProperties();
override protected function commitProperties():void
super.commitProperties();
if (_frmResultChanged == true)
// start the cycle again by generating a new random number,
// or write out the result
Calc(); -

How do I duplicate a custom component w/minor change?
I want to use the same custom component created in Flex in Xcelsius with a slight modification from the original, but the Add on Manager is saying it is a duplicate. What do I need to change in the code to resolve this?
i was always having the same issue before
1. change the class name into the Flex Code
2. DONT copy paste the Add on Manager FIle, XLP,,, you have to create a new one :)... this is the idea
3. give a new name into the Add on Manager.
thanks

Resizing custom component with fixed aspect ratio in designer
Hello,
I have a custom component that can have a fixed aspect ratio depending on certain property settings and I would like to know if there is any way to make the component resize in the designer in the same manner that the XCelcius built-in spreadsheet table component does?
It is possible to workaround this somewhat by correcting the width or height of the component after resize, XCelsius sees the change and stores it correctly but sometimes the IDE "remembers" the old value. For example if the component changings its own height programmatically in response to a property and then, while keeping the current component selected, the user resizes the width XCelsius sometimes tries to put the old height back even through it has the correct height saved in the XLF and works fine when compiled.
Is there a way to properly notify XCelsius IDE of a programmatic width/height change in the component itself in response to a property change?
ThanksThe SDK does not support reszing a component using a fixed aspect ratio.
Do not set the width and height of your component directly. You can set the initial size when dropped onto the canvas using the measure function...
A better approach is to let the user size the component on the Xcelsius canvas.
And instead of rendering directly in your add-on, move that code into a child renderer. Then use your aspect ratio to calculate the max size the child renderer can be to fit in the component. Then center your child renderer in the component. That is what I did when I created AnyMap.

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";
public class UIRptTableData extends HtmlDataTable {
public UIRptTableData() {
setRendererType("tblmaint.rptTableDataRenderer");
public String getFamily() {
return "javax.faces.Data";
public class UIRptTableRow extends UIOutput {
public UIRptTableRow() {
setRendererType("tblmaint.rptTableRowRenderer");
public String getFamily() {
return "javax.faces.Output";
public class UIRptTableCol extends UIColumn {
public UIRptTableCol() {
setRendererType("tblmaint.rptTableColRenderer");
public String getFamily() {
return "javax.faces.Column";
}Here is part of the faces-config file in case you need it.

RayHi, 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 --%>
<h:selectBooleanCheckbox
id="checked"
binding="#{RepeaterBean.checked}"/>
<%-- Invisible checkbox for "created" flag --%>
<h:selectBooleanCheckbox
id="created"
binding="#{RepeaterBean.created}"
rendered="false"/>
</h:column>
<h:column>
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="Account Id"/> <!�Second Header row -- >
</f:facet>
<h:inputText id="accountId"
binding="#{RepeaterBean.accountId}"
required="true"
size="6"
value="#{customer.accountId}">
</h:inputText>
<h:message for="accountId"/>
</h:column>
<h:column>
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="Customer Name"/> <!�Second Header row -- >
</f:facet>
<h:inputText id="name"
required="true"
size="50"
value="#{customer.name}">
</h:inputText>
<h:message for="name"/>
</h:column>
<h:column>
<f:facet name="header"> <!�Second Header row -- >
<h:outputText value="Symbol"/>
</f:facet>
<h:inputText id="symbol"
required="true"
size="6"
value="#{customer.symbol}">
<f:validateLength
maximum="6"
minimum="2"/>
</h:inputText>
<h:message for="symbol"/>
</h:column>
<h:column>
<f:facet name="header"> <!�Second Header row -- >
<h:outputText value="Total Sales"/>
</f:facet>
<h:outputText id="totalSales"
value="#{customer.totalSales}">
<f:convertNumber
type="currency"/>
</h:outputText>
</h:column>
<h:column>
<f:facet name="header"> <!�Second Header row -- >
<h:outputText value="Commands"/>
</f:facet>
<h:commandButton id="press"
action="#{RepeaterBean.press}"
immediate="true"
value="#{RepeaterBean.pressLabel}"
type="SUBMIT"/>
<h:commandLink id="click"
action="#{RepeaterBean.click}"
immediate="true">
<h:outputText
value="Click"/>
</h:commandLink>
</h:column>
</h:dataTable>
You may have a look at HTML source to prove that dataTable is already what you need:
<table id="myform:table">
<thead>
<tr><th colspan="6" scope="colgroup">Customer List</th></tr>
<tr>
<th scope="col"></th>
<th scope="col">Account Id</th>
<th scope="col">Customer Name</th>
<th scope="col">Symbol</th>
<th scope="col">Total Sales</th>
<th scope="col">Commands</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
2.) The second trouble is still unsettled as previously. Right now I have different task at my job, and I can�t continue investigation of this problem.
But when you find smth., please let me know. I�ll be very grateful.

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,
BujjiHi 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,

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,
ChrisI 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.

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, SebastianHi,
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???

Problem with attributes in custom component
Hi All,
I am creating a simple jsf PanelGrid custom component....in that component I am adding two new attributes....
when I use that tag in my jsf application it is rendering fine in the client side....but the parent class that is PanelGrid component's attributes are not inheriting to my custom panelgrid....
can any one tell me how can I use the attributes of the super class PanelGrid??
Thanks...Have you configured the attributes in the tag library descriptor?

How to construct the component tree in my custom component?Help!
Hi, i am writing a custom component like this:
public class HtmlCategory extends HtmlPanelGrid
public void processRestoreState(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context,
java.lang.Object state)
setColumns(1);
HtmlCommandLink link=new HtmlCommandLink();
link.setValue("Let's Bingo");
MyUtil.setActionListener(context,link,"#{temp.mytest}");
UIParameter param=new UIParameter();
param.setName("name");
param.setValue("Robin!");
link.getChildren().add(param);
param.setParent(link);
getChildren().add(link);
link.setParent(this);
super.processRestoreState(context,state);
} you see, i want to construct the compont tree at Restore View phase this way,because the structure of the component tree will always be the same, so i don't the user to write extra code.
But the children of the component are not rendered,the renderer of the HtmlCategory component just extends the HtmlGridRenderer(myfaces) directly,and always calls the "super" methods in the encode methods of the renderer.
I got a message from the console:
Wrong columns attribute for PanelGrid id0:id4: -2147483648
but i have set the columns attribute in the code above, so what's happening? or please give some advice about how to render the component tree by myself in Restore View with the tree constructing code in the custom component class code,just lke the code above.
Best Regards:)
RobinWell, i don't know if i have got my question clear.
usually, according to the tags you use in the jsf page, a component tree will be created at the Restore View phase,for example:
<f:form>
<h:panelGrid ...........>
<h:dataTable ................>
</h:dataTable>
</h:panelGrid>
</f:form>but because i am writing a component for my web app, all the child components and their attributes are not likely to change. so i want to reduce the tags into one custom tag, and construct the component tree internally by myself.But it is not the case of backing bean.So i wrote the the code in the method:
public void processRestoreState(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context,java.lang.Object state)as it is shown in my orginal message.But it seems that it is not right way to construct my component tree.So where should i put the code that construct the component tree?Overriding the method :
public void processRestoreState(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context,java.lang.Object state)is not the right way?
Best Regards:)

I want to add DataGrid in my custom component as a child component,
I want to add DataGrid in my custom component as a child component, can we ?? or should i generate HTML for table creation in my custom component's renderer ?
I did that:
for example, if i want to add a Button control in my custom control:
public void encodeChildren( FacesContext context ) throws IOException
super.encodeChildren( context );
//createComponent raises exception.... invalid component type
//UIComponent field = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().createComponent( javax.faces.component.html.HtmlInputText.class.getName() );
HtmlInputText input = new HtmlInputText();
getChildren().add( input );
public boolean getRendersChildren()
return true;
}Can you give me any example, i want to add child components at run time basically..
