Ankit Jain commented on OFBIZ-4379: ----------------------------------- Hello David, I agree with what you say, and yes we can use your suggested way, but this tag is also present in the services, so a point came in my mind why we can't use the same tag in screens and forms. That's why created a patch for it. HTH :) > Get first from list tag in screen's and form's action tag. > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-4379 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4379 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: framework > Affects Versions: Release 10.04, SVN trunk > Reporter: Ankit Jain > Priority: Minor > Fix For: Release Branch 10.04, SVN trunk > > Attachments: OFBIZ-4379.patch > > > In most of the cases we need to get first record from a list in screen and > form widgets then we have to do something like this: > for eg: > <set field="websiteContent" value="${groovy: > org.ofbiz.entity.util.EntityUtil.getFirst(websiteContentList);}"/> > Instead of using like this my idea is to add a tag like <first-from-list/> in > Screen & Form widget's action tag, so one can easily get first record from a > list. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
