thanks Josema,
after playing a while I found it as well, but still find it a bit
confusing, because there is now direct reference. What I did was
the following:
<!-- ========== code ========== -->
public UserBean () {
initCustomers();
}
public String[] getName() {
return names;
}
public void setName( String[] newNames ) {
names = newNames;
}
public Set getCustomerNames() {
return customerNames.entrySet();
}
public void initCustomers() {
names = new String[] {};
customerNames = new HashMap();
...
fill with database entries
...
}
<!-- ========== /code ========== -->
after this was done in the java bean, I could acces the elements
by using /name as ref value in the xml file.
<!-- ========== code ========== -->
<xf:selectMany ref="/name" selectUIType="checkbox">
<xf:caption>Customer</xf:caption>
<xf:itemset nodeset="customerNames">
<xf:caption ref="value"/>
<xf:value ref="key"/>
</xf:itemset>
</xf:selectMany>
<!-- ========== /code ========== -->
So, but how is the xmlform framework determining the name?
best regards
