Generating value change and find on New Dialog

The dialog generator will now generate search functionality on root roles. The following is generated if the root role has a primary key:

  • Value Change event on the field for the primary key attribute
  • A new method find<role> with a find action on the root role
  • The event is connected to the find<role> method

Generate one role dialogs

Selecting multiple classes in the Domain Model Classes and choosing Create Dialog Model(s) from the context menu will for each class create

  • One-role Object selections for each selected class
  • Dialog models based on the generated object selections
  • The generation will use the Default Dialog Template
  • Each Dialog will have Value Change event on the field representing the primary key
  • A find<role> method connected to the Value Change event
  • Structure and functions as defined by the Default Dialog Template

All g9 generators are available for change and are distributed with full source. If you need to change the result from a generator, you can create a generator copy and make necessary changes. The generator will be available in the Build section of g9 project properties.
