ActionHandling in a TabStrip

[Former Member]

Hello,

I've got a TabStrip in my Application. How can i modify the views between the tabs. I think it is an action like "onSelect" but if i try this code i get an ClassCastException message:

IWDTabStrip tab4 = (IWDTabStrip)view.getElement("Tab2");
tab4.setOnSelect(wdThis.wdGetOpenUserListAction());

okay,

but i think you dont understand my problem.

i've got a tabstrip with 3 tabs (userlist, inventarlist and inventarattributlist).

when i click on userlist, i have an action how i get userdetails.

but how can i handle, if i click on inventarlist tha i get an inventarlist.

i should be a different view and a different action.

If you want to place different views inside tabs, add a ViewContainerUIElement inside each tab and assign the views to the containers (node "Windows" in Web Dynpro Explorer).

In the action handler of the TabStrip.onSelect event, navigate to the view corresponding to the selected tab. In the inbound plug of that view, you can execute the method that retrieves the data for this view.

in my "public static void wdDoModifyView"

i have this code:

		
IWDTabStrip tab = XXX;
wdContext.currentContextElement().setSelectedTab(tab.getSelectedTab());

but however i edit XXX i get an error message

You don't need to write that inside wdDoModifyView(). Simply initialize attribute "SelectedTab" with the ID of the Tab instance you want to select initially.

thanks armin,

i tried this but how can i initalize the IWDTabStrip?

[Former Member]

What do you mean with "initialize"?

You can set the initially selected tab by setting the context attribute value (to which TabStrip.selectedTab is bound), e.g. in method wdDoInit().

Or what was the question?

Interesting document. Unfortunately totally off-topic.

okay,

it is a tab. but how can i handle different actions for the different tabs and views?

[Former Member]

The easy way to determine the currently selected tab in the action handler is: Bind the TabStrip.selectedTab property to a context attribute of type "string". Then you can get the current tab ID from this attribute.

Sebastian,

Check ID you are using in view.getElement("Tab2").

Seems that <b>Tab2</b> is not a <i>TabStrip</i> but a <i>Tab</i> within TabStrip.
