If you think that such answer is good for you without any details - you can get it from very begining. I consider that Forum is a school for everybody - not only for you. ]]> Wed, 14 Jan 2009 03:03:49 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13145&PID=44535&title=autoselect-constraint#44535 <![CDATA[Auto-select constraint : Ok, then the answer is; I&#039;ve...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13145&PID=44533&title=autoselect-constraint#44533 Author: znakeeye

Ok, then the answer is; I've missed something :P
 
Thanks for the clear description!

No - it works logically. Let's make a sample base on ReportSample - TaskListView:

class CTaskRecord : public CXTPReportRecord

{

protected:

class CTaskItemType : public CXTPReportRecordItem

{

public:

CTaskItemType(BOOL bSharedTask)

{

m_taskType = bSharedTask;

}

void OnConstraintChanged(XTP_REPORTRECORDITEM_ARGS* /*pItemArgs*/, CXTPReportRecordItemConstraint* pConstraint)

{

if (pConstraint)

m_taskType = (BOOL) pConstraint->m_dwData;

}

CString GetCaption(CXTPReportColumn* pColumn)

{

CXTPReportRecordItemConstraint* pConstraint = pColumn->GetEditOptions()->FindConstraint(m_taskType);

ASSERT(pConstraint);

return pConstraint->m_strConstraint;

}

BOOL m_taskType;

};

.............................
 

CTaskRecord::CTaskRecord(

BOOL bSharedTask, TaskImportance taskImportance, BOOL bHasAttachment,

TaskStatus taskStatus, CString strSubject,

COleDateTime odtDueDate, int nComplete, CString strCategories)

{

AddItem(new CTaskItemType(bSharedTask));

AddItem(new CTaskItemImportance(taskImportance));

AddItem(new CTaskItemAttachment(bHasAttachment));

AddItem(new CTaskItemStatus(taskStatus));

AddItem(new CXTPReportRecordItemText(strSubject));

AddItem(new CTaskItemDueDate(odtDueDate));

AddItem(new CTaskItemComplete(nComplete));

AddItem(new CXTPReportRecordItemText(strCategories));

}

int CTaskListView::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)

{

if (CXTPReportView::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)

return -1;

CXTPReportControl& wndReport = GetReportCtrl();

wndReport.GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDB_BMREPORT, 0, 0, CSize(16, 16));

CXTPReportColumn* pColumnType = wndReport.AddColumn(new CXTPReportColumn(COLUMN_TYPE, _T("Type"), 48, TRUE, 0));

pColumnType->GetEditOptions()->AddConstraint(_T("Yes"), TRUE);

pColumnType->GetEditOptions()->AddConstraint(_T("No"), FALSE);

pColumnType->GetEditOptions()->m_bConstraintEdit = TRUE;

pColumnType->GetEditOptions()->m_bAllowEdit = TRUE;

pColumnType->GetEditOptions()->AddComboButton();

......................

wndReport.AddRecord(new CTaskRecord(TRUE, taskImportanceNormal, TRUE, taskStatusInProgress, _T("Support Email: About tooltips"), dtNone, 70, _T("")));

wndReport.AddRecord(new CTaskRecord(TRUE, taskImportanceNormal, FALSE, taskStatusCompleted, _T("Support Email: CXTPPropertyGridItem"), dtNone, 100, _T("")));

wndReport.AddRecord(new CTaskRecord(TRUE, taskImportanceNormal, TRUE, taskStatusCompleted, _T("Support Email: Toolbar Oddity"), dtNone, 100, _T("")));

wndReport.AddRecord(new CTaskRecord(TRUE, taskImportanceNormal, TRUE, taskStatusCompleted, _T("Support Email: CXTPTabControl"), dtNone, 100, _T("")));

wndReport.AddRecord(new CTaskRecord(FALSE, taskImportanceNormal, TRUE, taskStatusInProgress, _T("Support Email: Menus go wrong if another form has topmost setting"), dtNone, 10, _T("")));

Now your first column automatically set Caption according of passed BOOL value (e.g. CTaskRecord(FALSE,...)

Yes, but you're missing the point here. I believe there is a design flaw in XTP 12.1.1 (and earlier). Please, let me clarify what I mean.
 
Q: Record items do not auto-set their corresponding constraint value when CXTPReportControl is being populated. Is this by design?
 
I add a record:
m_wndReport.AddRecord(new CMyRecord(FALSE));
 
In the constructor of this record:
CMyRecord::CMyRecord(BOOL enabled)
{
    AddItem(new CMyRecordItem(enabled));
}
 
In the constructor of that item:
CMyRecordItem::CMyRecordItem(BOOL enabled)
: CXTPReportRecordItemText()
, m_enabled(enabled)
{
    // Here it should be possible to set a value that tells XTP to
    // look up m_enabled in the constraints when populating the control!
}
 
When I populate the report control I expect this item to automatically lookup its constraints and set the corresponding text! This does not happen, and I am forced to override Populate() and add ugly functions to get the desired behavior.
 
Hence, either I'm missing something here, or the design is flawed.

You can do it just after you add a column to report itself -

CXTPReportColumn* pColumnStatus = wndReport.AddColumn(...)

if (pColumnStatus)
pColumnStatus->GetEditOptions()->AddConstraint(...)

No, that won't work when the constraints are set per column! I need to access the columns, and then retrieve the constraints:
 
GetColumns()->GetColumn(3)->GetEditOptions()...
 
But it cannot be done inside the constructor of a report record :(

AddConstraint return CXTPReportRecordItemConstraint*
or use CXTPReportRecordItemConstraint* pConstraint = GetEditOptions(NULL)->FindConstraint( specific Value );]]> Mon, 12 Jan 2009 18:01:13 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13145&PID=44484&title=autoselect-constraint#44484 <![CDATA[Auto-select constraint : Where do you get the pointer to...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13145&PID=44476&title=autoselect-constraint#44476 Author: znakeeye

Hi;

I did this by calling

        pConstraints->SetCurrent(xxx);
        SetValue(pConstraints->GetAt(xxx));

in the constructor of my custom item class.
