Create and delete value list dynamically.

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have some questions about dynamic creation of the value lists for InputFields. Maybe some words about it: i have a table which has got 2 columns, 1. column is the name and the 2. is the value InputField. The Value List of the InputField depends upon the name (upon the selected cell, so i generate InputField in onLeadSelect-handler).

The point is, that there are some InputFields, which don't need to have a value list. How can i delete ValueList after i have generated it once?

The second question: how can i manipulate the ValueSet-Window? I mean to change the size of the columns.

here is some code:

<i>// get access to value list

ISimpleTypeModifiable optionType = wdThis.wdGetAPI().getContext().getModifiableTypeOf(nodePath);

IModifiableSimpleValueSet optionValueList = optionType.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();

if(type.equals("boolean")) {

optionValueList.put("")

}

....

....some other types

....

else if(type.equals("string")) {

// how can i delete value set? i don't want that an empty value set window appears!

}</i>

Thanks for your answers!

With best regards

optionType.setSVServices(null);

This is not possible AFAIK, there seems to be a fixed width in pixels. Since the dialog is automatically build for you by the WD runtime, no chance.

Hope that helps.

Hi Stefan,

Thank you very much for your answer.

But now i have one more question:-)

Once i have set optionType.setSVServices(null);, i don't know how to generate SVServices for optionType (i need it if other option will be selected). I have not found any api documentation on such packahgs as com.sap.typeservices, or com.sap.dictionary.runtime.*..

With best regards

Hi Michael,

oops, i see. I was a little bit too straightforward there

Please use

optionType.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet().clear()

for removing the value help if not used. This has the same effect (removing the valuehelp button). But you can "readd" entries after this

Sorry and best regards

Stefan
