Parameters:

model - the model

originalList - originalList of values

generateReadOnlyListDisplayReplacement

protected String generateReadOnlyListDisplayReplacement(List<?> list)

Generates the html to be used and sets the readOnlyDisplayReplacement for DataFields that contain lists and do not have their own readOnlyDisplayReplacement defined. The type of html generated is based on the options set on readOnlyListDisplayType and readOnlyListDelimiter.

Parameters:

list - the list to be converted to readOnly html

protected void setAlternateAndAdditionalDisplayValue(View view,
                                                     Object model)

Sets alternate and additional property value for this field.

If AttributeSecurity present in this field, make sure the current user has permission to view the field value. If user doesn't have permission to view the value, mask the value as configured and set it as alternate value for display. If security doesn't exists for this field but alternateDisplayPropertyName present, get its value and format it based on that fields formatting and set for display.

For additional display value, if AttributeSecurity not present, sets the value if additionalDisplayPropertyName present. If not present, check whether this field is a KualiCode and get the relationship configured in the datadictionary file and set the name additional display value which will be displayed along with the code. If additional display property not present, check whether this field is has MultiValueControlBase. If yes, get the Label for the value and set it as additional display value.

Parameters:

view - the current view instance

model - model instance

copyFromAttributeDefinition

getDictionaryAttributeName

public String getDictionaryAttributeName()

Name of the attribute within the data dictionary the attribute field is associated with

During the initialize phase for the View, properties for attribute fields are defaulted from a corresponding AttributeDefinition in the data dictionary. Based on the propertyName and parent object class the framework attempts will determine the attribute definition that is associated with the field and set this property. However this property can also be set in the fields configuration to use another dictionary attribute.

The attribute name is used along with the dictionary object entry to find the AttributeDefinition

Specified by:

getDictionaryAttributeName in interface DataField

Returns:

attribute name

setDictionaryAttributeName

public void setDictionaryAttributeName(String dictionaryAttributeName)

Setter for the dictionary attribute name

Specified by:

setDictionaryAttributeName in interface DataField

Parameters:

dictionaryAttributeName -

getDictionaryObjectEntry

public String getDictionaryObjectEntry()

Object entry name in the data dictionary the associated attribute is apart of

During the initialize phase for the View, properties for attribute fields are defaulted from a corresponding AttributeDefinition in the data dictionary. Based on the parent object class the framework will determine the object entry for the associated attribute. However the object entry can be set in the field's configuration to use another object entry for the attribute

The attribute name is used along with the dictionary object entry to find the AttributeDefinition

Specified by:

getDictionaryObjectEntry in interface DataField

Returns:

String

setDictionaryObjectEntry

public void setDictionaryObjectEntry(String dictionaryObjectEntry)

Setter for the dictionary object entry

Specified by:

setDictionaryObjectEntry in interface DataField

Parameters:

dictionaryObjectEntry -

getDefaultValue

public Object getDefaultValue()

Default value for the model property the field points to

When a new View instance is requested, the corresponding model will be newly created. During this initialization process the value for the model property will be set to the given default value, if it was null. This will only work on properties which can be determined to be null. Therefore a String property with an empty string value will not be ovewritten with the defaultValue set here.

In addition, int, boolean, and other primitive types will not use this default value because they inherently have a value in Java (0 for int, false for boolean, etc). To use such types either using a primitive wrapper type (Integer, Boolean, etc) so an unset variable can be determined to be null, or explicitly set the default value on the form/object itself for these types and not through this property.

Specified by:

getDefaultValue in interface DataField

Returns:

default value
