Yip, I knew all of that dan, but the problem I have is a wee bit unique
1. Ad hoc query hits the DB.
2. I create CachedRowSetDataProvider
( so I have no idea of what is being returned , only column names and types
)
3. As each row is read I need to be able to look at the type and check for
nasty old oracle TIMESTAMP and also Timestamp.
I then create a map of private variabled called <column>_MS_EPOCH which are
a time calculated millisec value .
I then need to access this/these values when creating my link so that a
column on the table
has something link "TAKEMETHERE" which is a hyperlink to a url which has a
param of this variable
something like %TIMEVALUE_MS_EPOCH%
The person who defined the query knows the column so can set up the link (
in their spring config file )
But the app is transparent to what is being queried and processed.
So , I have a converter on the link component to replace any references of
%VARNAME% with the value derived from the row listener wo set the var up (
the converter is told about the rowlistener and thus
can ask about any of these generated vars ).
Ive gotten it working today ( but I dont like the implementation ).
I thought of writing a dynamic proxy for interposing the FieldKey , but
again, its messy.
What I need is the ability to set up "on the fly" field keys within a
provider ( via the row listener )
so that I have access to NEW variables and thus I can access using
#{dataItem.value.MYSPECIALVAR}
now that would be really cool and useful, that you can alter data based on
row values.
Maybe this app is unique and most apps can use the woodstock components
easily, but this is
driven via user set up within a spring config file and the app has no idea
what is being asked, only
that there are queries being run ( the application also generated dynamic
prompts on the screen
using ajax, manipulating the dom . I couldnt find a way in Woodstock to
dynamically create
components and delete components such as within a PanelGrid(table ) ).
