Hi!
My property is just like a static list, but populated by another class - so,
I used a DB List property.
What I want to show on select is different from what I want the stored value
to be, this is actually the purpose of DB List properties' "id name" and
"value name", but my experience showed the contrary...
I've already seem these
link<http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/DatabaseListProperties&g…es>,
and also found important information about this subject on this mailing (
http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/2008-February/010417.html). But
didn't solve my problem.
Have you checked this?
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/HowToCreateAOneToManyRelationshipIn…
I can't try it myself today. I'll be back to this issue ASAP. Thanks.
Again, I just want to do the same as property
"List of users" does, which is
when selecting it is shown "first_name+last_name", and when querying the
result is "XWiki.alias". I want to do something similar, but with my own
class, not XWiki.XWikiUsers.
For example:
XWiki.dbClass [which has: property1 (string), property2 (string)].
XWiki.class1Class [which has: property3 (dbList)=> XWiki class name:
XWiki.dbClass, id field name: property1; value field name: property2)].

Hi!
I'm trying to list the users' name in a form, but the name have
complement
(p.e. Name: Carlos Eduardo da Silva / HR -
manager). As in a "List of
users"
property, I want to display, when someone is
selecting a name, the full
name
and complement, but when displaying in the
results I want it to show the
user's Alias.
So what I did was a class (XWiki.dbClass) with two properties:
Name (String) (p.e. Carlos Eduardo da Silva / HR - manager)
Alias (String) (p.e.Carlos)
Which I used as a DataBase to the property "Name" in the other class
(XWiki.formClass).
So, I chose for this property:
XWiki Class Name: XWiki.dbClass
Id Field Name: Name
Value Field Name: Alias
But the result was not as in a "List of Users" property, in which when
one
choose for example "Carlos Eduardo da
Silva" the result in the table is
"Carlos".
The result was that both, selected and diplayed information, are in this
example "Carlos".
Perhaps I'm missing something, Erica, but if you are dealing with
XWiki
users, what not simply modify XWiki.XWikiUsers class to host the new
information you need to store? You must be careful when you updated this
class at XWiki update time!
Or create that new dbClass to store new data (position and alias) and
instantiate it (add an instance of that class) to each XWiki user.
I know this is not what you are asking for, but I'm trying to understand
what do you want to do. I've tried this Database List properties type in
a XE 2.6-SNAPSHOT.31892 and it seems to work a expected.
When you talk about "result in the table", what table are you talking
about? Thanks!
And another thing... I didn't understand the
DB Tree property. One thing
that worked was:
XWiki Class Name: XWiki.dbClass
Id Field Name: doc.fullName
Value Field Name: Alias
Parent Field Name: doc.parent
But I don't understand the meaning of that...
Can anyone help me ?
This is the only file where I can find a reference to Tree Property in
the XWiki ecosystem...
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/DatabaseListProperties
But it is just in the title of the document. I've trying to get it
working to no avail. It seems that it allows to assign a value of a
property by selecting a document from a tree of documents. But I'm not
able to get it working. Could you try with, let's say, a dbTree based on
XWiki.XWikiUsers? Thanks!
Just my two cents!
