Newbie: how to get account firstname and lastname in SIM

Question

I have the following xpres code that retrieves all the account ids in SIM - this is working. However, how can i get the firstname and lastname of all of the returned account Ids. Some code example will be appreciated:
<invoke name='getUsers' class='com.waveset.ui.FormUtil'>
<ref>:display.session</ref>
</invoke>

Answer 1

Is this in a form or a workflow? If a form, you'll probably want to use the getObject FormUtil method. Also, there's a bunch of useful methods on the actual LocalSession object represented by display.session - look in the javadocs to see what you can do...
Not hugely useful I know, but pretty hard to suggest options with (a lot) more context...
This is an example of using getObject from a UserForm - you would replace the <select> statement with the accountId of your target users returned from getUsers (probably using a dolist to iterate the result set), and replace fullname with firstname and lastname:
              <block>
                <defvar name="requestorObj">
                  <invoke name='getObject' class='com.waveset.ui.FormUtil'>
                    <ref>:display.session</ref>
                    <s>User</s>
                    <select>
                      <ref>requester</ref>
                      <ref>WF_CASE_OWNER</ref>
                    </select>
                  </invoke>
                </defvar>
                <concat>
                  <invoke name="getAttribute">
                    <ref>requestorObj</ref>
                    <s>fullname</s>
                  </invoke>
                  <s> [</s>
                  <get>
                    <ref>requestorObj</ref>
                    <s>accountId</s>
                  </get>
                  <s>]</s>
                </concat>
              </block>
