Actions
Example 12: Generic Search Dialog.
To get a Reservations window
that the user can query via the SearchDialog:
1.
|
Create a new subclass of the Reservations info box class,
rename it to "ReservationsFindExisting". |
Or
Adapt the
"ReservationFindExisting" (Example 11) into this newly defined
Reservations sub class.
2.
|
Insert a new button and change the button prompt to "Find
Existing ... ". |
3.
|
Open the Object Activator for the Action property of the
button. |
4.
|
From the Windows Designer catalog, drag the "SearchDialog"
dialog class into the Script box. This results in the following
method call being created: |
SearchDialog(....,....,....).Window.Create()
5.
|
For the first parameter subnode, select the
ReservationsFindExisting class itself (the top-level or root object
in the tree) and click Set. For the second, select the
query.destination and click Set. For the third, select the
query.family_name and click Set. These result in: |
SearchDialog( Self(), query.destination(),
query.family_name() ) Window.Create()
USoft replaces root-level
objects by the keyword Self. The advantage of this is that the
script remains valid even if the window class is renamed or
embedded, or if subclass is made of it.
