Static Select CCE widget values retrieval

Hi,

We have a requirement where all the values of Static Select CCE widget have to be retrieved through code.

I tried by following the below method but the xml is returning has empty selectOptions value for the select values part.

Scriptlet:

List results = queryContentComponent.getResults(rc);

int i =0;

if(results.size() > 0)

{

ContentInstance ci = new ContentInstance();

ci = (ContentInstance)results.get(0)

AttributeData[] ads =ci.getAttributes();

out.print(ads[2].getName()+"-------nameofAttribute");

AttributeDefinitionData cv =ads[2].getAttributeDefinition();

Map widgetMap =cv.getWidgetDataMap();

out.print(widgetMap);

}

OUTPUT:

Teaser-CONTENT-TYPE-----name of Attribute

{defaultValueType=NO, defaultValueExpr=, onChangeFunction=, authGroupsRW=null, miscValue=, validationExprOther=, validationMode=null, extraHtml=, size=null, failureMessageType=null, selectOptions=, validationExpr=, referenceType=NO, overrideType=NONE, validationType=NO, failureMessageExpr=, authGroupsHidden=null, transformType=TRANSFORM_IMPL_NONE, widgetContextPath=/vgn-wcm-up, referenceClass=null, authGroupsRO=null, overridePath=null, transformClass=null}

Please let me know if I am missing anything.

Thanks,

try with add.getWidgetData(), which returns the widget's xml fragment

No, add.widgetData() is also returning empty values.

WE tried to retrieve using CCE api calls even over there "null" values are being returned where as

getSelectOptionCount() is returning correct number of select values but when we use getSelectOptions() nulls are being returned.

Code:

AttributeDefinitionData add=ctdObj.getData().getAttributeDefinition( "MYSELECT" );

Map widgetData = add.getWidgetDataMap();

String widgetXML=add.getWidgetData();

WCMStaticSelectWidget s1= new WCMStaticSelectWidget(widgetXML);

out.println( "SIZE " +s1.getSelectOptionCount()+s1.getVisible()+s1.getType());

Iterator itr=s1.getSelectOptions();

while (itr.hasNext()) {

Object element = itr.next();

out.print(element.toString()); }

Output:

SIZE 5 true null

nullnullnullnullnull

Are we missing something?
