Referencing object created in lower stack

I apologize I am new too programming in general let alone x++. I want to modify the way the InventMovement\checkDImPhysical method handles some productions when I am posting reported as finished productions in the production module. When I am debugging I see that when I validate the RAF journal it originally calls the ProdJournalCheckPostProd class. Eventually in the call stack it uses the checkDimPhysical method from the InventMovement class and "this" contains the prodJournalProd table with a single production journal selected. When I try to edit the checkDimPhysical method by adding this.prodJournalProd I get a syntax error. If I print "this" I get no error.

The table isn't mentioned anywhere in this method or class I don't know how but is it possible that the object is from another class in the call stack. How can I use this information in this method or do I have to declare the table as variable and run a query to find it?

I'm sorry if I am not clear if I need to reword this or provide more information please me know.

if (this.dimSearch().dimPrimaryStocking())
                    {
                        okTmp = checkFailed(strfmt("@SYS54776",fieldid2pname(_inventDim.TableId, x)));

This is the line in the InventMovement\checkDimPhysical method that I want to add on to. The IDE isn't providing me the option for prodjournaltable when I type "this" as well, but it providing me other methods and properties instead.

Thank you.

Hi Jonx1000,

InventMovement is a base class, for each table type it has a derived class that handles it. For prodJournalProd there are 3: InventMov_Prod_JournalProd, InventMov_Prod_JournalProd_CoBy, InventMov_Prod_JournalProd_Process. To find out which one you can put a breakpoint into InventMovement::constructNoThrow() method and see with one is created. Then you can override checkDImPhysical method in one of those classes and do your check, don;t forget to call super() otherwise you would skip validation that is done in base method. Since prodJournalProd is a variable you dont need to write "this.prodJournalProd" just "prodJournalProd" is enough.

Thank you it was InventMov_Prod_JournalProd.

I overrided the method but theres no way I can use the okfailed variabke information from the base class right? I wanted to update the record based on that expression I quoted in my post.

Why not ? You can do something like:

public boolean checkDimPhysical(

InventQty _qty,

InventDim _inventDim,

boolean _finalCheck,

boolean _showError = true,

boolean _checkPalletLocation = true,

Set _specificDimensionsToCheck = null

)

{

boolean ok = super();

ok = ok && //you code here;

return ok;

}

So boolean ok = super(); will execute base(standard) code and return result of execution.

When I tried to set super without any parameters its throwing an error. "ok" seems to be just returning a boolean, but not the

checkFailed(strfmt("@SYS54776",fieldid2pname(_inventDim.TableId, x))); warning I was looking for. I've seen methods overried in the AOT with the same pattern you described not sure why its not working.

It was not the exact code you should use, just an example. You have to pass all the parameters to the super, like

boolean ok = super(_qty, _inventDim, _finalCheck, _showError, _checkPalletLocation, _specificDimensionsToCheck );

unless you want to change them before passing to the base method.

checkFailed returns a boolean and adds message to the infolog, so if in the super you will hit next line

checkFailed(strfmt("@SYS54776",fieldid2pname(_inventDim.TableId, x)));

then ok would be false, because it's a boolean and message would be added to the infolog.

Okay sorry I took it literally, I filled the parameters in for super and it worked. Thank you so now the overriden method works and I am able to access the prodJournalProd records thank you, but my last question is how can I access only those that are being triggered by that particular error. If ok returns false I'm assuming it can trigger false cause of another error it may not always be @SYS54776. Should I parse the infobox if possible or is there a better way I should perform this?

Why do you need to know what the error was ?

I want to either delete the journal or subtract quantity from it based on the amount that has not actually been registered.

Then the easiest way for you (easiest not best) is to copy paste method from InventMovement to InventMov_Prod_JournalProd (forget about super()) and put your code wherever you need.

Okay i was able to modify those records on our development server. Just curious what would be a better method?
