[icf-dev] subclasses of dynamic objects

Posted by LegacyUser on 10-Mar-2003 07:33

Hi,

for dealing with subclasses of dynamic objects I was told in this list a

couple of weeks ago, that those class names should start with "Dyn" so that

the appbuilder can recognize them as dynamic objects.

I tested creation and maintenance of dynamic objects in a class itViewer

with posse_31 code from this weekend. I added a template of that object to

the templates stores in the repository as an instance in

"templateSmartObject". It seemed to work fine. Is the hint/requirement

mentioned above still valid or are developers now free naming subclasses

(with respect to roundtable)?

Where can I find additional guidelines on how to set up templates of

subclasses in the repository? I used to add information to the icfdyn.cst

but that seems to be ignored now.

Regards,

Mike

Hi Mike,

As of this weekend, the main branch uses the repository instead of the .cst

static files for determining the templates and the palette. If you remove

the session parameters IDETemplate and IDEPalette from your icfconfig.xml

file, it will revert to the old way of using the static .cst files.

There is an attached spec in Issuezilla which explains the setting up of

template and palette information in the repositorory.

There is no longer any requirement in starting your classes with the 'Dyn'

prefix. There is a property called 'DynamicObject' that you need to set to

yes for the instance you added.
