Including WDK component in Taskspace

Hi all,

I am trying to include a custom wdk component (comp. has 2 frames in it) in Taskspace Application as one of the Tab.For that I have used Generic Form as Tab Type.The Generic Form supports only those wdk components that don’t have frames in it.

So I have decided to create a new Tab Type for my custom wdk component in Taskspace.As the starting point , I have tried to run the provided example Tab Type “ts_sample”.I can able to list the “ts_sample” Tab Type in the dropdownlist in the Create Tab page of Taskspace.But when I click Next button I am getting “DM_API_E_BADID: Bad Id given : 0000000000000000 error.

I have added below items in taskpace child applications preset file:

<type>

<name>ts_sample</name>

<componentid>ts_sample</componentid>

<label>ts_sample_tabtype.label</label>

<enabled>false</enabled>

<actionable>false</actionable>

<configform>ts_sample_tabconfig</configform>

<default-actions/>

<default-menu/>

</type>

</tab_types>" modifyOperation="3" bindingDefinitionId="taskspace_tab_types">

</itemData>

</items>

I know that the tag <configform>ts_sample_tabconfig</configform> is creating issues.But it is the default configuration interface component provided along with taskspace application.

Any ideas,

Thanks,

Karthick s

Hi,

Add the items element to preset file as like the below configuration ,this will list the new Tab Type in DropDownlist

                <items itemDefinitionId="tab_types" packageDefinitionName="TaskSpace_App">
   <itemData bindingDefinitionId="taskspace_tab_types" configData="<tab_types>
            <type>
            <name>mytabtype</name>
            <componentid>wdkcomponentid</componentid>
            <label>MyDropdownlist.label</label>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
            <configurable>true</configurable>
            <configform>mytabconfigform</configform>
            </type>
            </tab_types>" modifyOperation="3">
   <configTargetDefinitions href="../TaskSpace_App.definition#//@configTargetDefinitions.0"/>
</itemData>
</items>

the value inbetween <name> tag needs to be specified in "tabclassesconfig" file.

Then u have to create Electronic Form using FormBuilder and have to install it to docbase.Once U have installed it u need to map that form

inbetween <configform> tag in the above preset file.Then follow the steps in TaskSpace Config Guide.If You have problems let me Know.

Hi Karthik,

thnx..now i am able to see the tab in the dropdown.I need to include my custom component which extends homecabinetclassic and objectlist which is working on webtop layer...so i am following this approach to create a tab and specify that component in the tab. I tried using GenericForm tab and specified the homecabinetclassic(also home cbainetlist) component and its displaying properly but when click on any object its throwing exception onClickObject method not found. but works fine on the webtop layer.

so i thought of creating custom tab and specify my wdkcomponent in it but i am not getting it. If u have included any wdk component in the taskspace tab can u please share it.

Thanx in Advance

Hi,

New Tab Type is unrelated to your requirment as of right now because you can include your wdk component thru Generic Form Tab Type

The problem is onClickObject() is a javascript method which is not found in ur case.Use the below code

function onClickObject(obj, id, type, isFolder)
{
if (isFolder == '1')
{
fireClientEvent("onClickContentObject", id, type);
}
postServerEvent(null, null, null, "onClickObject", "objectId", id, "type", type, "isFolder", isFolder);
}
</script>

or locate onClickObject in webtop and include all referenced files in taskspace.

for Ex.

if onClickContentObject is not found locate this method in javascript file and include it in taskspace.

Hi karthick,

thanks for replying. I specified the out of box taskspace wdkcomponent homecabinet_list which is present in the webcomponent layer. it includes navigation.js file which is present in the correct location and i gave alert commands its printing, so my js file is called but its not able to find the method onclickobject which is present in the DocList.class extended by HomeCabinetList.class. I am not able to find out why its not getting called.

Thanx in Advance..

Hi,

Can you able to see onClickObject(obj, id, type, isFolder) and onClickContentObject method in JS file?

See whether HomeCabinetList.class and doclist.class files have been generated in TaskSpace classes directory.

Then see does your HomeCabinetList extends doclist.class.

If there is problem ,try either of the below

1.Launch doclist componet individually using http://ipaddress:port/taskspace/component/doclist

and invoke onclickobject

2.try to include doclist component into taskspace instead of homecabinetclassic and see whether onClickObject works or not.

i have included src file for doclist.use it as reference.

Thanks,

Hi Karthick,

onClickObject(obj, id, type, isFolder) and onClickContentObject method exists in navigation.js file

HomeCabinetList.class and doclist.class files exists in the specified directory. I have not modified any of these classes.

HomeCabinetList extends doclist.class.

when i specify the url http://ipaddress:port/taskspace/component/doclist all the operations are working.

but when i included that as a component in the genericform tab (tried both homecabinet_list and doclist) gives that error.

but when i specify the wdkcomponentid = drilldown its working.

I have attached the document the steps i followed.
