Application set up wizard [message #1850531]

Hello,
I have a requirement where application should display a wizard ( or an initial form ) at first start where the initial setup of application is done. The user should not have access to any outline while the setup is not finished.
If any one made this before please share !
Thanks in advance
Anis

Hi

I'd try something like this:

- You need a flag on your application user, like "setupCompleted" true/false - add a column for that in your 'user' table in the database
- Check the state of the flag in Desktop#execInit and set a variable like m_setupMode=true/false
- Use setHeaderVisible(false) and setNavigationVisible(false) to hide the header and the navigation if m_setupMode is true
- You might also need skip loading/activation of default views when m_setupMode is true
- If m_setupMode is true, open a SetupWizardForm and display it as a view in the Desktop bench (which makes the form use the full screen, because header and navigation is not visible)
- When setup is done, update the flag in the database, close the setup form, show header and navigation again and load the default view.

Cheers
André
