CheckBoxGroup - Help Required

[Former Member]

Hi All

I am new to SAP EP. I am trying to use CheckboxGroup in my View (in WebDynPro) application.

I have created a simple type and with the Enumeration with foll. value and desc

test1........abc

test2........def

test3.........xyz

Now I have created a context node and context attribute. The type of the Context attribute has been bound to the Simple type.

The checkboxgroup appears properly in the layout but when I run this application then it is not shown in the browser.

Please help

Hi

Select the cardinality for the context node as 1..n.

The CheckBoxGroup does not work with value sets. Please read the <a href="https://media.sdn.sap.com/javadocs/NW04/SPS15/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/clientserver/uielib/standard/api/IWDCheckBoxGroup.html">Javadoc</a>.

Hi Nikhil,

As I believe, you cant assign dictionary simpletype values to CheckBoxGroup from Dictionary because CheckBoxGroup works just like DropdownByIndex. So you have to Create a node and a value attribute for this.

Do the following to populate value in ur CheckBoxGroup.

1. Create a node(say CheckBox) of Cardinality 0..N and Create a value attribute of type String(Say Name. It is for displaying the description)

2. Assign 'Name' to texts property of CheckBoxGroup.

3.Include the following in wdDoInit()

IPrivate<ViewName>.ICheckBoxNode cNode=wdContext.nodeCheckBox();

IPrivate<ViewName>.ICheckBoxElement cEl;

for(int i=0;i<3;i++)

{

cEl=cNode.createCheckBoxElement();

cNode.addElement(cEl);

cEl.setName("TEXT"+i);

}

Hope this will be helpful
