Jacopo > Let form widget treat input list as a subset of a larger list > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-364 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-364 > Project: OFBiz (The Open for Business Project) > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: framework > Reporter: Leon Torres > Assigned To: Jacopo Cappellato > Priority: Minor > Attachments: subset-form-list.patch > > > Allow a programmer to specify a parameter "overrideFormListSize=1000" to make > the FormWidget think the list size is 1000. > Then, when a list of size 20 is passed in, the FormWidget treats it as a > subset of the size 1000 list with its position given by viewIndex as usual. > As an example, suppose a complex product report requires the user to process > each product by hand. There are 1000 products and the viewSize is 20. The > user gets the viewIndex of 10 from the context, so he should be processing > the range (200, 219). He builds a new list containing the processed data, > which is size 20. Since this list is only 20 items, the form widget thinks > the entire report is 20 lines. There won't be pagination over the 1000 > products. So the user specifies "overrideFormListSize=1000" and now the > FormWidget understands that this input list of 20 items are the items (200, > 219) of a size 1000 list. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
