Problem with invalidating a context node

[Former Member]

Hi,

Please see the code below:

String s = wdContext.currentSubitemsElement().getBase_Quantity();

wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportWarning(s);

wdContext.nodeSubitems().invalidate();

String s1 = wdContext.currentSubitemsElement().getBase_Quantity();

wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportWarning(s1);

For some reason, the context is not cleared after the invalidate command. Any ideas for this?

Thanks in advance,

Try using this function instead of "invalidate":

wdContext.getContext().reset();

Hi Aviad,

Let me guess the origins of problem:

1. As far as you mentioned <b>Sub</b>items node, there should be a parent node, say Items.

2. Subitems node has either supplying relation role or supply function, Items has no supply function.

3. Then, if you invalidate Subitems, supply function is called or supplying relation is used to populate content. When you do contenxt reset, then all controller nodes get invalidated including Items. Hence Subitems has no parent and displayed as empty.

If all the above is true, then you may either to invalidate Items node or make Subitems node with no supplier (i.e. manually bind content instead).

Context reset works here, but, it's a bit "brute force" approach.
