Generic BICS Search Feeder Class

The generic BICS Search feeder class is used to expose the variables of a BICS (Analytics) query using the FPM Search UIBB.

The generic feeder class CL_FPM_BICS_SEARCH_FEEDER creates a dynamic configuration based on the defined query or queries.

For more configuration options, the generic feeder class can be sub-classed.

In conjunction with the Analytics or Chart components, the Search component can be configured for more than one query. The variables of the different queries are merged together; variables from different queries with the same name appear only once in the Search component.

At runtime, the Search component exposes the variables of the configured queries inside this special Search feeder class. Mandatory variables are marked with an asterisk, and will create an error if they are not completed. Default values from the query configuration are displayed upon start-up.

The Search UIBB component has one configuration option. The feeder class parameters table allows you to enter multiple combinations of query and query instance IDs. The instance ID is necessary if, within an application, multiple independent instances of the same query should be displayed.
