4.1 SolutionModel Example

Postby bcusick » Wed Dec 03, 2008 9:43 pm

I just got finished showing off how to use the new SolutionModel functionality in the "What's New in Servoy 4.1" Webinar that just ended. But I've been asked to put up the code - so here it is.

To use the code - create a form with 3 buttons (doesn't matter what connection/table you use for the form).

There are 3 methods below - and they are in order of escalating complexity. Each one "builds" on the one before. So on your FIRST button - attach the FIRST method to the "onAction" event, on the SECOND button the SECOND method, and THIRD button, THIRD method.

IMPORTANT: This example assumes that you have a data connection called "example_data" (standard in the "default" install) - as well as the corresponding tables. If you don't have that connection - then you can just modify the code for your own connection/tables/fields.

ENJOY!

==============
BUTTON 1 CODE
==============
Code: Select all
function newForm()
{
   solutionModel.removeForm('form1')
   
   //make a new form
   //creates a brand new form, under the given name, that persists only as long as the client session
   var myForm = solutionModel.newForm('form1', 'example_data', 'customers', 'svyWebCrm', false, 800, 600)
   //now you can add stuff to the form (under JSForm node)
   //add a label
   myForm.newLabel('Company', 20, 20, 80, 20)
   //add a "normal" text entry field
   myForm.newTextField('companyname', 101, 20, 200, 20)
   
   myForm.newLabel('Contact', 20, 42, 80, 20)
   //add a "normal" text entry field
   myForm.newTextField('contactname', 101, 42, 200, 20)
   
   myForm.newLabel('City bob', 20, 64, 80, 20)
   //add a "normal" text entry field
   myForm.newTextField('city', 101, 64, 200, 20)
   
   myForm.newLabel('Country', 20, 86, 80, 20)

   forms.form1.controller.show()
}

==============

Thanks, Kahuna! The new SolutionModel stuff is so AWESOME - it's really mind-blowing the things you can do.

Hope to see you next week at the iPhone Application Demo "Building iPhone Applications with ZERO Code!" Register here: https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/878257454
