Unable to populate the dropdown by key from webservice

[Former Member]

My dropdown by key field is not beeing populated. I have the following code in my wdDoInit method of my component controller. I have binded the dropdown by the attribute OutCatname in the layout of my view.

IWDAttributeInfo info=wdContext.nodeBAMSCategoryDetails().getNodeInfo().getAttribute("OutCatname");

ISimpleTypeModifiable st=info.getModifiableSimpleType();

IModifiableSimpleValueSet valueSetCategory = st.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();

// Add a empty choice for default.

valueSetCategory.put(new String(""), new String(""));

// Populate the simple value set with the data from the model node.

for (int i = 0; i < this.wdContext.nodeBAMSCategoryDetails().size(); i++)

{

valueSetCategory.put(wdContext.nodeBAMSCategoryDetails().getBAMSCategoryDetailsElementAt(i).getOutCatname(),

wdContext.nodeBAMSCategoryDetails().getBAMSCategoryDetailsElementAt(i).getAttributeAsText("OutCatname"));

}

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

My code was right it was that my cardinality was not set right.

Thanks for your quick response.

Have you checked the size of model node?Does it contain data?

It may be empty i think.

I don't understand this code.

Can you please tell

- How the context structure looks like

- Where the key/value-pairs are stored that should be filled into the value set

- Where the attribute for the selected key is located in the context
