Context node convert ArrayList

[victorpale]

Hi Java Web Dynpro gurus

If I'm wrong please correct me. I know the all context nodes are collections.

I want to convert a value attribute on ArrayList. With the aim of use the method "contains" instead of walking with cycling registers (for cycle).

Is it posible?

That is not possible victor....

There is no standard function to convert Context to Arraylist but it can be done by iterating the node using the following code.

"Messages" is the context name in below case.

IWDNode node = wdContext.currentMessagesElement().node();

List<String> allMsgIds = new ArrayList<String>();

IMessagesElement element=  wdContext.currentMessagesElement();

for(int i=0;i<node.size();i++){

element = (IMessagesElement) node.getElementAt(i);

allMsgIds.add(element.getMessageID());

}

and then you can use "Contain" function.

Agreed. Context to an array, not supported by the context api.

You have to manually loop to find the value.
