Web dynpro Java + interctaive forms + dorp down list

Question

Hi,
I'm currently trying to display manager names in a drop down list in an interactive forms.
The node binded to the drop down list is filled in by the Java web dynpro application and it's correctly filled, I have check.
My problem is that only the first value is dispalyed in the drop down list. I can't selected other values.
My question is: - which drop down should I uses?
                       - How do I have to do the binding?

Answer 1

Prerequisites:
Add your key-value pairs of the returned managers in a java Map object first, in my example below its the object 'map'
Get the attributeInfo of the field from your node's nodeinfo, in my example its the object 'attrInfo'
F.i. wdContext.node<YourNode>().getNodeInfo().getAttribute(IPrivate<YourView>.I<ViewElement>Element.<YOURATTRIBUTE>
Then it's fairly straightforward:
IModifiableSimpleValueSet svSet = attrInfo.getModifiableSimpleType().getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();
svSet.clear();
for (Iterator i = map.entrySet().iterator(); i.hasNext();) {
     Map.Entry entry = (Map.Entry) i.next();
     svSet.put(entry.getKey(), (String)entry.getValue());
Then, in your view, bind the dropdown control to the context value attribute, and it should work
