Finding default parameters for built-in methods

Classic Servoy
1

Where does one find the documentation or list of default parameters or arguments passed to the build-in events in Servoy such as onDataChange?

I’ve looked in the documentation but haven’t been able to find these. For example onDataChange argument 1 and 2 is the old value and new value of a field.

Thanks!

here are the arguments :

form commands

  • onSearchCmd
    arguments[0] : is clear
    arguments[1] : is reduced

form events

  • onRecordEditStop
    arguments[0] : edited record

  • onShow
    arguments[0] : is first time show

form

  • rowBGColorCalculation
    (function arguments)
    arguments[0] : row number
    arguments[1] : is selected
    arguments[2] : cell element type
    arguments[3] : cell data provider
    arguments[4] : form name
    arguments[5] : state
    arguments[6] : is edited

(calculation arguments)
arguments[0] : row number
arguments[1] : is selected
arguments[2] : cell element type
arguments[3] : cell data provider
arguments[4] : is edited

field events

  • onDataChange
    arguments[0] : old value
    arguments[1] : new value

How about the Solution events: onClose, onError & onOpen?

Some more events:

== table

  • onDelete
    arguments[0] : record that will be deleted

  • onInsert
    arguments[0] : record that will be inserted

  • onUpdate
    arguments[0] : record that will be updated

== tabpanel

  • onTabChangeMethodID
    arguments[0] : index of tab shown before the change

== form

  • onSortCmd
    arguments[0] : element data provider
    arguments[1] : sort acscending [true] or descending [false]

== solution

  • onError
    arguments[0] : exception to handle

  • onClose
    arguments[0] : force flag

In Servoy 4.2 the properties view will be extended with arguments to the events.
All the servoy-generated arguments (like the ones above) will be listed when a method is attached to an event.
Additionally it will be possible to add custom values.
For instance, you can attach a method with 2 arguments to the onshow event of form x, the first argument is defined by servoy (a boolean indicating it is the first time), the value of the second argument can be configured for form x.
