Using in minilang
I've been trying to wing it with minilang, it seems pretty straight
forward...but I ended up with a situation where I could either go with
minlang recursion (no clue how to handle the ins and outs) or a bsh
script, since the function I need is already defined in a java class
I'm trying to go with the latter.
The method I wish to use requires a delegator as an argument, how
would I provide this from within a minilang script?
Also is it possible to set a field field="field" from-field="declared
inside" <call-bsh></call-bsh> tag.(see example)
fragment:
<!--The objective here is to look up the CustRequestRole entity of roleTypeId:
CONTACT, to get the contact partyId so it's email address can be used if
there is none on the account -->
<if-empty field="parameters.sendTo">
<call-bsh>
String contactPartyId =
com.opensourcestrategies.crmsfa.cases.UtilCase.getCasePrimaryContactPartyId(delegator,
custRequestId));
</call-bsh>
<set field="getEmail.partyId" from-field="contactPartyId" />
<call-service service-name="getPartyEmail"
in-map-name="getEmail">
<result-to-field result-name="emailAddress" field="parameters.sendTo" />
</call-service>
</if-empty>

About setting a field, if you return a Map from the bsh script then the contents of the map would be put into the context of the method.

delegator is always available in the context of a minilang method so you don't need to do anything special to reference it in the call-bsh tag. In the example below, the call-class-method tag could have been used instead as well.

Re: Using in minilang

I was under the impression it was the ofbiz mini-lang not the opentaps
mini-lang, I'm asking about mini-lang syntax not opentaps application
logic.(For this reason I didn't edit out opentaps related code from my
example...)
I'm trying to discover how parameters are passed around in mini-lang,
nothing to do with opentaps. Online documentation and associated books
haven't made this clear to me. Which is why I'm asking here.
I think I know at this stage of the game what is related to the ofbiz
framework as opposed to the opentaps implementation...my apologies if
I'm under some strange misapprehension.
