Hello people,

how can I get what user has set in a class dialog field? (the class extends runbasebatch, the variable I am interested in is also in a CurrentVersion(1) macro)

i believe it may look something like this: (but this just gives me a 1, i don't know, how to show the value of a dialog field)

static void getSysLastValue(Args _args)
{
container lastValues;
RunBaseBatchExtendedClass extClass = new RunBaseBatchExtendedClass();
;

lastValues = xSysLastValue::getValue(curext(), 'userId', UtilElementType::Class, classStr(RunBaseBatchExtendedClass));

extClass.unpack(lastValues);

info((strFmt('%1', conPeek(lastValues, 1))));
}

thanks

You unpack variables to extClass object, which is the right approach. But then you completely ignore this object and you're trying to part the container by yourself, which is wrong.

Let's say you're interested in variable myData1 in RunBaseBatchExtendedClass. After you call extClass.unpack(lastValues), myData1 variable is set (in extClass object). All you need to do it extract it from there, usually by a parm method. Like this: extClass.parmMyData1(). If you the class doesn't have any suitable method, you'll have to add it.

Thanks Martin,

No, the class didn't have the parm method for the variable.

Then you need to add such method, as Martin mentioned.
