How to populate Navigation List

[Former Member]

Hi

I need to populate a navigation list with values obtained from an RFC.

Can I do this in the same way as populating DDBK?

The DDBK is linked to a Context Value Attribute, but the Navigation List is linked to a Context Node. The context value attribute linked to the DDBK is "addBusUnit". The context node linked to the Navigation List is "TeamList" with value attribute "Member". How would I change the following code(from the DDBK) so that it will work with the Navigation List?

IWDAttributeInfo attinfoBus = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute("addBusUnit");

ISimpleTypeModifiable modinfoBus = attinfoBus.getModifiableSimpleType();

IModifiableSimpleValueSet valueSet = modinfoBus.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();

try

{

wdContext.currentZhr_360_Teamviewer_InputElement().modelObject().execute();

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

{

valueSet.put(wdContext.nodeZteamviewers().getZteamviewersElementAt(i).getZzpaycode(),

wdContext.nodeZteamviewers().getZteamviewersElementAt(i).getZzfullname());

}

}

catch (WDDynamicRFCExecuteException d)

{

manager.reportException(d.getMessage(), false);

}

thanks in advance

To populate a NavigationList, bind the "itemSource" property to a context node and bind the other "item*" attributes to attributes inside that node. The item source may be a recursive node.

Say the item source node is named "NavItems" with attributes "FullName" and "PayCode". Then you may use code like

try
{
  wdContext.currentZhr_360_Teamviewer_InputElement().modelObject().execute();
  wdContext.nodeNavItems().invalidate();
  for (int i = 0; i < wdContext.nodeZteamviewers().size(); i++)
  {
    IZteamviewersElement e = wdContext.nodeZteamviewers().getZteamviewersElementAt(i);
    INavItemsElement navItem = wdContext.nodeNavItems().createNavItemsElement();
    wdContext.nodeNavItems().addElement(navItem);
    navItem.setPayCode(e.getZzpaycode());
    navItem.setFullName(e.getZzfullname());
  }
}
catch (WDDynamicRFCExecuteException d)
{
  manager.reportException(d.getMessage(), false);
}

Bind NavigationList.itemText property to "FullName" to get the full name displayed as item text.

Used item List Box not Navigation List. Posted new thread for how to populate item list box
