You can implement parameter mapping dynamically.

Procedure

Set Constant Values to Action Parameters

  1. Insert the following code into the wdDoModifyView method:

    if(firstTime){

    IWDCheckBox theCheckBox =(IWDCheckbox)view.getElement("<UI element Id>");

    theCheckBox.mappingOfOnToggle().setBoolean("<action parameter name>", true);

    }

    Note Note

    The action parameter name is case sensitive.

    End of the note.

    The methods addParameter of IWDParameterMappingare deprecated, use the following methods instead, depending on the parameter type:

    • setBoolean(String name, boolean value)

    • setByte(String name, byte value)

    • setChar(String name, char value)

    • setDouble(String name, double value)

    • setFloat(String name, float value)

    • setInt(String name, int value)

    • setLong(String name, long value)

    • setShort(String name, short value)

    • setString(String name, String value)

    The parameter name refers to the action parameter name.

Map Existing Event Parameters to Existing Action Parameters

  1. Insert the following code into the wdDoModifyView method:

    if(firstTime){

    IWDCheckBox theCheckBox =(IWDCheckBox)view.getElement("<UI element Id>");

    theCheckBox.mappingOfOnToggle().addSourceMapping(IWDCheckBox.IWDOnToggle.CHECKED,

    "<action parameter name>");

    }

    Note Note

    You can use the typed constant parameter name. for the generic event parameter it is for example: IWDButton.IWDOnAction.NODE_ELEMENT.

    End of the note.

Example

Suppose you have a Button with ID GenderSelector and an action with parameter female of type boolean, the code will look like this:

if (firstTime)

{

IWDButton genderSelector = (IWDButton) view.getElement("GenderSelector");

genderSelector.mappingOfOnAction().setBoolean("female", true);

}
