Pre Process URL for an Editable Structure Browser

Examples to invoke the emxIndentedTable.jsp with preProcessURL:

Set the href of any command object using macros where appropriate:

${COMMON_DIR}/emxIndentedTable.jsp?mode=Edit&table=<IndentedTable_name>
&preProcessURL=${SUITE_DIR}/emxCustomPreProcess.jsp

or

Invoke emxIndentedTable.jsp with custom JSP pages using the relative path (macros are not supported):

../common/emxIndentedTable.jsp?mode=Edit&table=<IndentedTable_name>
&preProcessURL=../<Application Directory>/emxCustomPreProcess.jsp

If both a preProcessURL and preProcessJPO are specified, the preProcessURL will be processed first, then the preProcessJPO will be processed.

The pre process JSP has the following input parameters available:

• The request parameters that were available for the emxIndentedTable.jsp, for example, objectId, relId, timeStamp, portalMode, suiteKey, etc. (objectId and relId of the root node).
• The request parameter timeStamp gets the information stored in the table bean as a map.
• To update or interact with any ENOVIA objects, obtain the context, from the request in the pre process JSP using this code:

context = (matrix.db.Context)request.getAttribute("context");

The following code sample shows how a custom processing page can read values from the requestMap:

<%

    // get the timeStamp from the incoming HttpRequest

    String timeStamp = (String) 
emxGetParameter(request,"timeStamp");

    // define the indented table bean

%>

    <jsp:useBean id="indentedTableBean" 
class="com.matrixone.apps.framework.ui.UITableIndented" 
scope="session"/>

<%

    // get the tableDataMap and the requestMap from the indented 
table bean

    HashMap tableDataMap = (HashMap) 
indentedTableBean.getTableData(timeStamp);

    HashMap requestMap = (HashMap) 
indentedTableBean.getRequestMap(tableDataMap);

    // get specific values from the requestMap

    String languageStr = (String) requestMap.get("languageStr");

    String timeZone = (String) requestMap.get("timeZone");

    String charSet = (String) requestMap.get("charSet");

    String suiteKey = (String) requestMap.get("suiteKey");

    String stringResourceFile = (String) 
requestMap.get("StringResourceFileId");

%>

The following code sample shows how a custom processing page can iterate through the table objectIds. This example 'reserves' all objects in the objectList (as would likely be done in a pre processing custom JSP page). Note that custom processing JSP pages do not return anything to the component.

<%

    // get the timeStamp from the incoming HttpRequest

    String timeStamp = (String) 
emxGetParameter(request,"timeStamp");

    // define the indented table bean

%>

    <jsp:useBean id="indentedTableBean" 
class="com.matrixone.apps.framework.ui.UITableIndented" 
scope="session"/>

<%

    // get the tableDataMap and the objectList from the indented 
table bean

    HashMap tableDataMap = (HashMap) 
indentedTableBean.getTableData(timeStamp);

    MapList objectList = (MapList) 
indentedTableBean.getObjectList(tableDataMap);

    // loop through the objectList's list of object Maps

    Iterator objectListItr = objectList.iterator();

    while(objectListItr.hasNext()){

       // get the current object Map

       Map curObjectMap = (Map) objectListItr.next();

       // get the current object's objectId from the current 
object Map

       String curObjectId = (String) curObjectMap.get("id");

       // a comment to pass along with the object reserve 
operation

       String reserveComment = "This object is Reserved";

       // create a BusinessObject, open the object, reserve the 
object, close the object

       BusinessObject curBusObject = new 
BusinessObject(curObjectId);

       curBusObject.open(context);

                       curBusObject.reserve(context,reserveComment);

       curBusObject.close(context);

    }
