Read the value of unbound control

Posted on by 190

Hello everyone, 

I have a requirement on MDAX 2012 where I need to get the value of an unbound control, where I need to get the value before changing it.

I am trying to get it with control.valueStr();  I have called it before the super of modified of the control, but it takes the changed value, not the old one.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks in advance!

    You can store the original value in a form level variable whenever the field contents change. This way you have the previous value stored in a variable when the field value is modified the next time.

    public void modified()
    {
        super();
        info("Old value was " + oldValue ". New value is " + this.valueStr());
        oldValue = this.valueStr();
    }
