Adrian,
I started to use ExpressionUIHelper.getMonthValueList() for populating
months in form dropdown elements. We are facing problem when value
returned by ExpressionUIHelper.getMonthValueList is given to Form
widget dropdown element,
{code}
+ <form name="MonthlyTrialBalance" type="single"
target="MonthlyTrialBalance" title="Find list of monthly transaction
totals"
+ header-row-style="header-row" default-table-style="basic-
table">
+
+ <field name="organizationPartyId"><hidden/></field>
+ <field name="trialBalanceMonth" required-field="true">
+ <drop-down>
+ <list-options list-name="monthList" key-name="value"
description="${description}"/>
+ </drop-down>
+ </field>
+ <field name="isPosted">
+ <drop-down>
+ <option description="${uiLabelMap.CommonYes}" key="Y"/>
+ <option description="${uiLabelMap.CommonNo}" key="N"/>
+ <option description="${uiLabelMap.CommonAll}"
key="All"/>
+ </drop-down>
+ </field>
+ <field name="submitButton" widget-style="smallSubmit"><submit
button-type="button"/></field>
+ </form>
{code}
we get following error
{error}

We can resolve this error if we modify ExpressionUiHelper.java file at
line 99 to following statement.
{code}
result.add(UtilMisc.toMap("description",
dateFormat.format(tempCal.getTime()), "value", String.valueOf(i)));
{code}
If you don't mind I'll make this modification and then replace ftl
(committed in r794667 ) with form widget code.

Anil Patel

Anil,
There are a number of UI helper methods like this already in
ExpressionUIHelper.java.
