BaseObject getByName question...
Hi,
I am trying to create a .vm file where based on a Vector of columnMaps, and
my original OM Object, I display a table cell with a form element, and pull
out of my OM object the corresponding data...
I am basing my work on just tweaking the newapp application, and the
velocimacro I am using is fromCell TableDescription TableName Data.
My actual code looks like this:
#foreach($column in $columns)
<TR>
#formCell($column.columnName $column.columnName
$entry.getByName("$column.columnName"))
<TR>
#end
And all of this works great once I wrote my own getByName() method for my OM
object. How come this method is declared by BaseObject, but is not
implemented by the default Torque OM building system? It seems that if the
BaseObject declares it (and throws an exception if you call it), then the
default Torque OM building system should provide the method?
Or is there another way of doing what I want? I tried doing this:
$entry.({$column.columnName}) but that doesn't seem to be proper velocity
syntax.
Before I go and tweak my Torque code to create the method getByName in all
the BaseOm objects, I wanted to make sure this was something that isn't
already in there. How do I contribute back this code if anyone wants it?
Eric

The method is already in Object.vm (which creates the Base* classes).
You need the property
addGetByNameMethod=true
set in your build.properties. I am pretty sure this will be on by
default, so I do not know why you would be missing the methods in your
Base* classes.
