Hello,
as you may now (or even may have coded), you can put a SQL query in a
DBStringList property...
something like
select prop.value from BaseObject as obj, StringProperty as prop where
obj.name = "mydocname" and obj.className="myclassname" and obj.id.id
=
prop.id and prop.name = "mypropname"
but you can also use 2 columns (first one for stored value and second one
for displayed value)
select prop.value, prop2.value from BaseObject as obj, StringProperty as
prop, StringProperty as prop2 where obj.name = "mydocname" and
obj.className="myclassname" and obj.id.id = prop.id and prop.name =
"mypropname" and obj.id.id = prop2.id and prop2.name = "myprop2name"
So then I have tried something more complex
select prop.value, prop.value||prop2.value from BaseObject as obj,
StringProperty as prop, StringProperty as prop2 where obj.name = "mydocname"
and obj.className="myclassname" and obj.id.id = prop.id and prop.name =
"mypropname" and obj.id.id = prop2.id and prop2.name = "myprop2name"
or
select prop.value, concat(prop.value, prop2.value) from BaseObject as obj,
StringProperty as prop, StringProperty as prop2 where obj.name = "mydocname"
and obj.className="myclassname" and obj.id.id = prop.id and prop.name =
"mypropname" and obj.id.id = prop2.id and prop2.name = "myprop2name"
and it throws some funny errors... why? In DBStringListClass, makeList
transforms the SQL query to separate both columns and re-creates SQL query
with one column only. But apparently, it doesn't manage such expressions...
the funniest is "||" since it looks like it is rendered as a Wiki
expression...
