Description

Code, that resolves to a type and is passed to the VUIEntityManager to retrieve a VUIAdapter.

▸ Model elements: ☐ packages ∙ ☐ classes ∙ ☑ attributes ∙ ☐ operations ∙ ☑ association ends ∙ ☐ states

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /AliasType

Description

Declares the respective model element as a "VUI alias" and provides the mapping type behind that alias. Aliases are used for two purposes. First, they provide a way to introduce new types in the VUI without the need to extend the business logic, e.g. to associated a specific choice list to them. Secondly, they provide a way to add fine grained semantics to the model without the need to overload the business logic with all those types.

In contrast to XMVUI/StaticType, this type is always used, even if the instance is not null.

▸ Model elements: ☐ packages ∙ ☑ classes ∙ ☑ attributes ∙ ☐ operations ∙ ☑ association ends ∙ ☐ states

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /DisableBLCSlotEditor

Description

This can be used on attribute level to override the setting of XMVUI/TryBLCSlotEditor on class level. Typically, this might be necessary within implementation of such slot editors, since otherwise by nested editors an infinite recursive cycle might be created.

It is also useful in cases a class is declared as contained, but this class has multiple associations. In such cases, this containment might refer only to one association, so it is necessary to override BLCSlotEditor for the other.

Applies to

▸ Model level: ☑ logical model ∙ ☑ technical model

▸ Model elements: ☐ packages ∙ ☑ classes ∙ ☑ attributes ∙ ☐ operations ∙ ☑ association ends ∙ ☐ states

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /RebuildEditorOnInstanceChange

Description

Normally, if an attribute is changeable and an editor is used for that attribute, and if that attribute's value changes, the respective editor is not recreated, but reused.

Set this property to true to prevent this behaviour and force recreation of the editor. This is necessary in cases where different types of editors are used for different types of values.

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /DisableCreate

Description

Code, which evaluates to a boolean, and if true, while editing this feature, new instances of the respective feature class cannot be created (on the fly) and then assigned to the feature. Such intances must be created somewhere else in the UI.

This should only be used to improve usability of the respective feature, since it does not prohibit creation in general. If you want to disable creation in general, use other appropriate mechanisms (e.g. permissions).

If not provided or evaluating to false, this does not imply that instances can be created, since various more conditions must be fulfilled for that (e.g. permissions).

Description

Code, which evaluates to a boolean, and if true, while editing this feature, instances of the respective feature class cannot be selected from a choice set and then assigned to the feature.

This should only be used to improve usability of the respective feature, since it does not prohibit selection in general. If you want to disable selection in general, use other appropriate mechanisms (e.g. permissions).

If not provided or evaluating to false, this does not imply that instances can be selected, since various more conditions must be fulfilled for that (e.g. permissions).

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /DisableOpen

Description

This property can be specified on Classes.

Code, which evaluates to a boolean, and if true, this class cannot be opened directly, e.g. on the browser page or via the browser toolkit, but instead only implicitly viewed via containing relations is possible.

Note that this only affects detached opening. A user interface frontend renderer is still free to provide zooming capabilities, in fact it might be required to do this (as e.g. determined via an EquipmentInterpreter). Zooming might look exactly like Opening, but comprises a slightly different action.

This should only be used to improve usability of the respective feature, since it does not prohibit viewing in general. If you want to disable viewing in general, use other appropriate mechanisms (e.g. permissions).

If not provided or evaluating to false, this does not imply that instances can be viewed, since various more conditions must be fulfilled for that (e.g. permissions).

If specified on

Classes

:

Code, which evaluates to a boolean, and if true, this class cannot be deleted directly (and thereby possibly removed from containing associations, depending), e.g. on the browser page or via the browser toolkit, but instead only implicit deletion via removal on containing relations is possible.

This should only be used to improve usability of the respective feature, since it does not prohibit removing in general. If you want to disable removing in general, use other appropriate mechanisms (e.g. permissions).

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /SelectorFromManyShowRetriever

Description

If true, the attributes of the retriever used in the default selector for this class are shown. This should be enabled, if the respective retriever has visible attributs. This is typically the case for a RetrieverFilter. The RetrieverAll does not have attributes, so this should be set to false.

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /SlotType

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /HandleADOReferences

Description

If true, VUI adapters accept explicit reference instances to application domain objects in addition to normal language references. Furthermore, the respective VUI vector adapters create adapters for references to vector members if items are requested. This is a prerequisite to display tools that are attached to references instead of the instances themselves, which is the case with vector editing operations (delete a specific item from a set, append after a specific item etc.)

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /ItemByPathAccessors

Description

A list of accessors which are called if the respective associated VUI adapter is asked for an item by path.

Normally, the VUI adapters return the features of objects according to their id, step by step, which are contained in the feature list of the adapter. With ItemByPathAccessors, arbitrary items with arbitrary pathes can be addressed. These items need not be contained in the feature list, i.e., they need not be browsable or visible in advance.

Each ItemByPathAccessor defines a starting id which selects it. In this case, the search for an item by path is delegated to the code defined by the accessor (ItemRetrieval).

▸ Model elements: ☐ packages ∙ ☑ classes ∙ ☐ attributes ∙ ☐ operations ∙ ☐ association ends ∙ ☐ states

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /ChangeabilityDependsOnReadAccess

Description

In RetrieverFilters, the changeability of filter attributes obviously does not depend on MODIFY access to the real business data, but only to READ access on it, since not the data is modified, but instead only the filters used for searching.

Therefore, if this property is true, security checks concerning changeability of the attribbute are made for READ access, not for MODIFY access.

Do not use this property for any other purpose, since it easily can break security.

▸ Model elements: ☐ packages ∙ ☐ classes ∙ ☐ attributes ∙ ☑ operations ∙ ☐ association ends ∙ ☐ states

//Artefact:ModelAttribute /com /sphenon /modelling /xmodel /XMVUI /EnableDeepEditing

Description

If true, for each editing transaction started from within the VUI, the editors send notifications when they begin, are canceled or are finished. These notifications are routed through the respective DataSlot, the VUIObjectAdapterFeature_Attribute and finally into the corresponding AD level Factory or Editor (Instance) by setting the AD feature to 'ignored' during the transaction, so that any pre-validation is not disturbed by these ongoing transactions. This is necessary if more than one level of editors gets nested, but not always.

Note: at the moment, this property requires the property 'Ignorable' also to be set.
