Multiple selection in Custom Dialog in D2

Mayur_shivs

Hi Experts,

We have developed a custom Dialog in D2.

Currently this dialog only works on single selection, means even if there is multi selection in document List widget. We are getting only one r_object_id in our buildDialog() method.

public XmlNode buildDialog(D2fsContext context, List attributes)
  throws Exception {


  XmlNode result = null;

  System.out.println("Inside BuidlDialog Method Of CustomDialogPlugin");

  ParameterParser parameterParser = context.getParameterParser();

  List<Attribute> params = parameterParser.getParameters();

  for(Attribute attribute : params) {

  LOG.info("Attribute Name : " + attribute.getName() + "   Attribute Value : " + attribute.getValue());
  }

  if(attributes != null) {
  for(Object attr : attributes) {

  Attribute at = (Attribute) attr;

  LOG.info("Attribute Name 1) : " + at.getName() + "   Attribute Value 1) : " + at.getValue());
  }
  }

  int count = context.getObjectCount();

  LOG.info("Number Of Objects Selected : " + count);


  java.net.URL dialogFile = context.getXmlDialogFile();


  LOG.info("XML Dialog File : "  +  dialogFile.getPath(
}));

We get following information in Logs

Attribute Name : id   Attribute Value : 09*******003679f

Number Of Objects Selected : 1

Question : How can we fetch r_object_id value for other selected documents in Document List widget.

Observation : The In build Dialog in D2 implements Managers Like

Send Mail ----> Show dialog with manager :"SendmailManager"

This dialog uses SendmailManager class which resides under WEB-INF\classes\com\emc\x3\portal\client\manager\sendmail  in D2 Application.

We also tried to create The manager class like this

}

public class AgendaManager extends AbstractActionManager






{


  protected static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(AgendaManager.class.getName());
  public List<String> listIds;


  public AgendaManager(OpenAjaxMessage message) {
  super(message);


  }


  @Override
  public void handleAction() {
  LOG.info("AgendaManager");
  List<String> ids = initListIds();
  for (String strid:listIds)
  {
  LOG.info("ListIDS element: "+strid);
  }

  StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();

  Iterator<String> it = ids.iterator();

  while(it.hasNext()) {

  String s = it.next();

  builder.append(s);

  LOG.info("IDS : " + s);
  }

  String idfIDs = builder.toString();


  List<Attribute> attributes = new ArrayList();


  getDialogController().showDialog(idfIDs, "AgendaDialog", attributes);




  }






  private List<String> initListIds()
  {
  listIds = new ArrayList();
  String ids[] = getMessage().getIds();
  for(int i = 0; i < ids.length; i++)
  listIds.add(ids[i]);

  return listIds;


  }


}

currently we have created custom menu and specified "Show Dialog "AgendaDialog". In logs we are getting single r_object_id on multiple selection.

We are specifying this manager in custom menu in D2-Config, But it seems that custom manager class is not getting invoked at all.

Do we need to register this class somewhere in D2 , How should we enable mutiple selection in D2 Dialog.

I guess you could try something like that. I use it in a custom dialog action....

	for (int i = 0; i < context.getObjectCount(); i++)
	{

final IDfSysObject obj = (IDfSysObject) _context.getObject(i);

     // Do your stuff here

	}
