Hi,

1. Create a simple type of type String and set its maximum length to 4 in the defnition tab.

2. Create a value attribute and set its type to the simple type created above

3. Bind the value property of the input field to the attribute defined above.

Hi

1. You can find it in WebDynpro Explorer under Dictionaries node-> Local Dictionaty-> Data Types->Simple Type

Right Click on Simple Type and create a new simple type. by default you will get Definition Tab where you can specify length constraints.

2. Value attribute:Go to context tab in you iview. right click on context icon and add value attribute to context.

Hi,

Open your WD project>Dictionary>Local Dictionary>Data Types>Simple Types-->Right CLick and select create new simple type

<name> and <package>

Now you can see your simple type in the editor and set the maximum length to 4.

save the metadata

Open your view and you can see a context tab.

Right click on Context node and select new value attribute

name it .

Go to the properties of the value attribute and select its type to the simple type that we created by selecting the button in the rightmost corner ...
