Hi All,

I have created the extension of form "EntAssetObjectType" and simply created a Tab page, than i created a COC of the Form init method what i want that before calling the NEXT keyword i want to know the Control ID of the custom Tab page.

I Am able to get the Control ID after the next call but is there any way that i can get the control id before the NEXT call.

Thanks.

Hi Vinay Tak,

Do you consider using event handler?

The tab page is initialized in the init method. The id doesn't exist before it. But I guess your actual question is "how to initialize a ListPanel in a form extension", right?

[FormEventHandler(formStr(EntAssetObjectType), FormEventType::Initialized)]

public static void EntAssetObjectType_OnInitialized(xFormRun sender, FormEventArgs e)

{

FormRun formrun = sender as FormRun;

FormControl externalId = sender.control(sender.controlId('TabPageChecklist'));

int test = externalId.id(); //formrun.design().control(formrun.controlId(formControlStr(EntAssetObjectType, TabPageChecklist))).id();

// sysListPanel_Variable = AvaSysListPanel_EntAssetObjectTypeVariable::newForm(this, this.controlId(formControlStr(EntAssetObjectType, TabPageChecklist)));

// Custom class AvaSysListPanel_EntAssetObjectTypeVariable passing form run and parent id

AvaSysListPanel_EntAssetObjectTypeVariable::newForm(sender, test));

// but getting this button error on the method InIT()

// not getting the add button its always show the null

sysListPanel_Variable.init();

Hi Vinay,

Please try the OnInitializing event handler.

Please always use Insert > Insert Code (in the rich-formatting view) to paste source code. Like this:

[FormEventHandler(formStr(EntAssetObjectType), FormEventType::Initialized)] public static void EntAssetObjectType_OnInitialized(xFormRun sender, FormEventArgs e) { FormRun formrun = sender as FormRun; FormControl externalId = sender.control(sender.controlId('TabPageChecklist')); int test = externalId.id(); //formrun.design().control(formrun.controlId(formControlStr(EntAssetObjectType, TabPageChecklist))).id(); // sysListPanel_Variable = AvaSysListPanel_EntAssetObjectTypeVariable::newForm(this, this.controlId(formControlStr(EntAssetObjectType, TabPageChecklist))); // Custom class AvaSysListPanel_EntAssetObjectTypeVariable passing form run and parent id AvaSysListPanel_EntAssetObjectTypeVariable::newForm(sender, test)); // but getting this button error on the method InIT() // not getting the add button its always show the null sysListPanel_Variable.init(); }

Unfortunately I don't understand your comments, such as "not getting the add button its always show the null". Could you be more specific, please?
