Re: Problem with Primary Key String

2012-07-30 Thread Robert G.
The interesting thing is, that when I want to update (not delete) the
attribute...it works fine, but when I want delet, than it does not work,
cause of th +-signs.

The only difference is, that there is a hyperlink used to send the parameter
(for delete) to the service. By updating the data, there is a submit-button
in use.

what is the difference? Why in one case it add the + signs, and in the
other case, it does not?

ok, it seems, that the form data is handled different when I use a submit
button instead of a hyperlink with paramer:

field name=submitButton title=${uiLabelMap.CommonUpdate}
widget-style=smallSubmitsubmit button-type=button//field
*-- this one sends the parameter from database as they are stored...*

field name=deleteLink title=${uiLabelMap.CommonEmptyHeader}
widget-style=buttontext
   hyperlink target=deleteProductCategoryAttribute
description=${uiLabelMap.CommonDelete} 
parameter param-name=productCategoryId/
parameter param-name=attrName/
  /hyperlink
/field
*-- this method replaces whitepacese in a string with a +-sign. That is
bad, how do you handle it? Cause a database request on those values will not
get a result...*

Re: Problem with Primary Key String

2012-07-30 Thread Robert G.
mhh, I use CategoryScreens.xml ... it is a backend view, not the ecommerce.
I talked about ecommerce, cause I show these values in ecommerce, but
storing, updating, or deletion is done in backend...this function is
allready ootb in ofbiz (on category -- attributes), so thats why i am
wondering.

this issue is also when I test here:
https://demo-stable.ofbiz.apache.org/catalog/control/EditCategoryAttributes?productCategoryId=200

using a Attr Name which has whitespaces (like test test) than I cannot
delete -- it adds the + 

So I think it has nothing todo with ecommerce URL handling.

any more ideas? :) I get crazy, and I do not wana add an extra field for
primary key, but I have to use names with whitespaces.

Re: Problem with Primary Key String

2012-07-30 Thread Mike
Just a comment.  In all the years I've been dealing with databases, it was
never considered good practice (and has always been avoided) to have a
space character in any primary key, although technically it should work. It
looks like you discovered an edge case in ofbiz.  Even if you manage to
initially get it to work, there may be other places where the problem will
show up.

Maybe use an underscore (_) instead, --or-- define another entity, maybe
called 'attrDesc' that contains the spaced TEXT?
