[TOBAGO] Master-Detail

[Fernando Augusto <fe...@osmanager.com.br>]

Hello,

I am new to Tobago and to JSF, and I got a problem while thinking in a 
way to implement a master-detail form, or any way to show the details of 
a row when clicked on somewhere. The problem is: that action needs to be 
performed by a *single click* action, for usability reasons. I cant make 
the user to select a row AND click a button.
I was doing it with plain JSF using a commandLink and f:param tag 
passing the row ID to a method called by the actionListener and then 
redirecting, using a static action, to another page. But my boss have 
seen how easy is to make popups and form rendering in Tobago, and asked 
me to make a Tobago version of our system. Everything seems to be pretty 
straightforward in tobago, <RANT> except this and those weird and 
undocumented tc:attribute uses... I still need to find anything about 
them... </RANT>
So, is there a way to implement Master-Detail approach in Tobago???

Best Regards,

Fernando Augusto

Hello Fernando,

here are the allowedValues = {"click", "dblclick"} of event in 
tc:columnEvent (I've added this to the docu, now).

The tc:attribute is the Tobago-version for f:attribute. The allowed (and 
reasonable) values for name and value depends on the parent UIComponent.

Regards,

Udo

Thanks for your help, Marcus.

But now comes the doubt... Where can I find which column events can I 
work with? and, already referring to the last msg I sent, which 
attributes does tc:attribute accepts and when?

Regards,

Fernando Augusto

Hi Fernando,

pls have a look at the tobago addressbook example. There you can find a
solution how to react on "click-events" in a tobago sheet. For example, by
using

<tc:columnEvent event="dblclick">
    <tc:command action="#{controller.editAddress}"/>
</tc:columnEvent>

you would react on a double click on the row. The addressbook example can be
found in the current build 1.0.24 below /example/addressbook and can be
started by using mvn jetty:run-expploded in the war directory.

Cheers
Marcus
