Parameterising LookupCalls [message #1274346] Fri, 21 March 2014 10:33 Go to next message

Hi,

I have a table that uses smart fields and I've started using the lookupcall mechanism to get the members.

Now I have the situation where this smart field can be used to provide a different set of members based on differing scenarios.

Is there a way of parameterising the getConfiguredSqlSelect method ? currently I'm using a static member as a descriminator.

Regards

/Dominic

Hi,

did you try to use the ExecPrepareLookup operation to set parameters on the call? That normally works to set parameters on the call and use them on the back end.

for example on the client you use :

@Override
protected void execPrepareLookup(LookupCall call) throws ProcessingException {
   call.setRec(getCategorieField().getValue());
}


on the server you use

  @Override
  protected String getConfiguredSqlSelect() {
    return "SELECT id, name FROM Test" +
        " WHERE 1=1" +
        " <key>AND id = :key</key>" +
        " <text>AND UPPER(name) LIKE UPPER(:text) + '%'</text>" +
        " AND categoryID = :rec";
  }


note the ":rec" hostvariable thats holds the value that is set on the call.

Hi,

The default members (key, text, all, rec, master) have meanings. For example "rec" is used in hierarchical lookup calls: it contains the key of the parent entry, to load the children of a parent-node.

You can add your own members:
See Lookup call > Members (check the example with "ValidityFrom" and "ValidityTo").

In the Sql Lookup Service > getConfiguredSqlSelect() property you can also use the members you have defined.

Hi,
about this argument of parameterising lookupcalls: I have a list of value to be used as a filter, this list contains a variable number of elements that depends from user selection. In a standard sql I use "IN" statements, but here isn't possible to use for security reason.

Select col1, col2, col3
From table1
Where col3 IN (value1,value2,...,valueN)


How can I generate something like this?

Thanks in advance for your help

I am not sure but I think you can use:

where col3 = :myValues


If myValues is a list or an array, the Scout SQL layer should do the expected conversion and use "IN (..)".

Hi Jeremie,
I try before with array of String and after with ArrayList of String but in both cases Scout SQL Layer converts

where col3 = :myValues


in

where col3 LIKE '%[i]first value of my Array or ArrayList[/i]%'


Example:

myValue={'DE','IT','BG'}

where col3 LIKE '%DE%'


Have you any other suggestions?

Have you tried

where col3 = :{myValues}

Hi Urs,
I try in this moment with your suggestion but the result is the same of my last post.

Is it possible that I make a mistake that I don't see Confused , below my code:

Client --> DesktopForm
...
        protected void execPrepareLookup(LookupCall call, ITreeNode parent) throws ProcessingException {
          if (getListField() != null) {
            if (getListField().getTable().getSelectedRowCount() > 0) {
              ArrayList<String> listId = new ArrayList<String>();
              int index = 0;
              for (ITableRow row : getListField().getTable().getSelectedRows()) {
                listId.add(row.getCell(0).toString());
                index++;
              }
              c.setMyList(listId);
              c.setListFilter(true);
            }
            else {
              c.setMyList(new ArrayList<String>());
              c.setListFilter(false);
            }
          }
          else {
            c.setMyList(new ArrayList<String>());
            c.setListFilter(false);
          }
}
...


Shared --> Lookup Calls
public class myLookupCall extends LookupCall {

  private ArrayList<String> m_MyList = new ArrayList<String>();
  private boolean m_ListFilter = false;

  public boolean isListFilter() {
    return m_ListFilter;
  }

  public void setListFilter(boolean filter) {
    m_ListFilter = filter;
  }

  public ArrayList<String> getMyList() {
    return m_MyList;
  }

  public void setMyList(ArrayList<String> myList) {
    m_MyList = myList;
  }

}


Server --> Lookcap
...
  protected String getConfiguredSqlSelect() {
    return "SELECT ID, TEXT, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, 0, NULL As PARENTID, 1 "
        + " FROM MyTable "
        + " WHERE ColID<>0 And ColID<>3 "
        + "      And (0 = :ListFilter OR ID = :{MyList} ) "

  }
...


This is the dump that I have:
!MESSAGE org.eclipse.scout.rt.server.services.common.jdbc.internal.exec.StatementProcessor.dump(StatementProcessor.java:809) 
SQL with binds:
SELECT    ID,
          TEXT,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          0,
          NULL
AS        PARENTID,
          1
FROM      MyTable
WHERE     ColID <> 0
          AND ColID <> 3
          AND (0 = :CountryFilter
          OR
          COUNTRYID = :{CountryIDFilterList})
IN  :CountryFilter => ? [INTEGER 1]
IN  :{CountryIDFilterList} => ? [VARCHAR IT]


Thanks in advance for any suggestions

I do not think that you need to use the curly braces because in this case you do not want a batch processing.

Tested with scout 3.9, on the mini-crm tutorial (with a Derby DB*):
    List<Long> list = Arrays.asList(1L, 2L);

    Object[][] result = SQL.select("SELECT COMPANY_NR, " +
        "       SHORT_NAME, " +
        "       NAME, " +
        "       TYPE_UID " +
        " FROM COMPANY " +
        " WHERE COMPANY_NR = :id",
        new NVPair("id", list));


Here the SQL dump (if you change the level, you can get both the "SQL with binds" and "SQL PLAIN Log"):

SQL with binds:
SELECT    COMPANY_NR,
          SHORT_NAME,
          NAME,
          TYPE_UID
FROM      COMPANY
WHERE     COMPANY_NR = :id

SQL PLAIN Log:
SELECT    COMPANY_NR,
          SHORT_NAME,
          NAME,
          TYPE_UID
FROM      COMPANY
WHERE     ((COMPANY_NR IN (1, 2)))


For me you can use the same construct in an SqlLookupService. It calls also SQL.select(..). It is possible to debug it step by step.

Can you reproduce the example on a simple case (without a LookupService)?


(*) I am sure it works also with an Oracle DB. I don't think that it is db engine specific.

Hi all,
I have another doubt/request regarding the lookup parametrization:

if I have two or more parameters that is necessary put in OR condition, is it possibile do something like the code below???

SELECT ID,
          TEXT,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          0,
          NULL
AS        PARENTID,
          1
FROM      MyTable
WHERE     ColID <> 0
          AND ColID <> 3
          AND ColText1 IS NOT NULL
          AND (ColText Like '% :P1 %' Or ColText Like '% :P2 %')


Where P1 and P2 are two different parameters set with PrepareLookUpCall method.

Thanks in advance for any evaluation and suggestions

I do no see why it will not work...

You need to have some getters on your LookupCall: call.getP1() and call.getP2()...

Hi Jeremie,
I implemented your suggestion an work fine and I obtain the result desidered but I cannot find a way to integrate this development in my LookUpService.
I also tried to load my TreeBoxField with the result of SQL but also this way doesn't give me any result.

Can you have a suggestion/help to exit to this empass?

I am really sorry, but you need to provide more explanation:
- What is blocking you? (Why can't you "integrate this development in my LookUpService"?).
- What is the problem with a TreeBoxField?

and more context:
- What version of scout are you using?
- How does your DB looks like?

Hi,
sorry I was not very clear.
I use Eclipse Juno 3.8 with Oracle DB and my table is a standard table with different field (integer or char).

Point 1
Query that I do is the following in my LookupService:

SELECT ID,
          TEXT,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          NULL,
          0,
          NULL
AS        PARENTID,
          1
FROM      MyTable
WHERE     ColID <> 0
          AND ColID <> 3


I want to add your suggestion that it works fine if I use directly "SQL.select" function with parameter, but I don't find the way to integrate this utilization with my Lookupservice and "ExecPrepareLookUp" function.


Point 2
I implemented a method in my FormProcessService that return an Object[][], that rappresent the result of the function "SQL.select" with parameters, as you suggest.
But I cannot seem to populate my TreeBoxField with the result obtains from server side.

Now I have been a bit clearer, I give you all necessary information to try to help me.
