Hello Community,

does anyone know how to define a selection wizard programmatically?
I want to use it in Java Service or External Java Action.

Or is there a way to define a Selection Wizard in a Selection Wizard.
What I want to do is, after I selection an element in the first selection wizard and click on finish, the second selection wizard will come up and I can selelction the second element.

Is it possible to do so?

Regards,
Bo

Hello,

Among the model operation of your Selection Wizard, you can add an operation "Open Wizard" [1] where your will be able to select your second element.

Otherwise if you still want to do it programmatically, you can call the command PaneBasedSelectionWizardCommand. You will find examples of that in PaneBasedSelectionWizardTests.

Steve

Hello,

thanks for the reply.
I also noticed the option "Open Wizard",
What I don't know is, how do I define it to use it as Selection Wizard.
E.g, how do I set the candidates Expression there? and how do I pass parameters there?

Regards,
Bo

Hello,

In fact, it is the same wizard widget as can be defined in the properties view[1]. For instance, you will need to define at least a page[2] in this wizard. As this wizard operation, is triggered from a Selection Wizard, you will need to use the variables provided by the Selection Wizard to specify the Wizard operation. For instance, the "var:element" expression provided by the Selection Wizard will return a list of element selected in the Selection Wizard and will be needed for the "Semantic Candidate Expression" of the page of the wizard operation.

Regards,
Steve
