Hi,

i have a class called from a button on a form. It takes the current record from Args object.

The class has a dialog method with two fields. I need to set their values with the values of the current record taken from Args.


How do i avoid the packed values and give it the current values each time? I havent find examples around..

thank you in advance

    Have you tried to set the value in dialog field using dialogField.value() method?

    Thanks,

    Yes, but somehow it didnt work right.

    I've managed to set that value by overriding the unpack method and by retrieving the values from the PackedClass container.

    Don't know if it's best practice to do this but worked out.

    You can control when unpack (of af RunBase) class is called by calling the getLast method.

    So, if you call this method before applying new parameters to your class, you are able to override the packed values. That would be Best Practice.
