Hi all,
I'm new in Documentum,
I've created(via API) some dm_queries the user can execute from desktop, my problem is that even if I return multiple fields in my select, the page only displays one!
any clue?
thank you very much...
Michael.
to be more precise, the searchresult.jsp only displays the comumns defined in the webtop columns preferences, how to bypass these preferences?
my dm_query returns more fields, hat are not in the preferences, and these additional fields are not taken...
thanks!
I think you have to add these columns in the preferences component for your object type.
thank you for your help, that's what I was also thinking but as I'm new in Documentum, I don't really know which files to modify...
in webtop/config, there are 4 files for preferences: general_preferences_component.xml, general_preferences_ex_component.xml, display_preferences_component.xml and display_preferences_ex_component.xml !
what are the differences and which one should I modify to modify the list of possible types + columns for that new type?
thank you, have a nice day,
I believe "_ex" components are 6.5 versions of the non _ex components. To decide whether to customize general_ or display_, have you tried opening them up to see what those components contain?
to open a component, is this syntax correct:
http://<url>/<app_name>/componentlist/<componentName>
thank you,
Actually, I meant opening the xml config files. Most of the time, the xml tags are pretty self explanatory, such that you can tell which component maps to the UI that you are looking at.
I have opened them but as the files are not so self explanatory and confusing...
If its confusing to you, I suggest you first start reading about WDK framework. Start with WDK Tutorial, then WDK Development Guide, and finally if you need details for each component, look at WDK Reference Manual.
BTW - I opened both and only one of them has xml tags that remotely correspond to the tabs that are displayed when you click Preference button.
