Setting Filter Operators in ds.xml file

[Blama]

Hi blingslingkling123,

that would be SimpleType, but I don't know if it supports <validOperators>.
Isomorphic: It would be great to have a list of what attributes and tags SimpleType supports in .ds.xml.
Is it the "Instance API" docs from the link, so <validOperators> would work?

Best regards
Blama

We've made a change to solve this issue. The fix will be available in the nightly builds as of tomorrow May 28th.

After applying the validOperators, I get this error:

Example Field:


Error:


None of the operators are displayed, just a basic right click option menu.

Thank you so much!

No, the package summary explains how array-type fields appear in XML:

So:

<field ... >
    <validOperators>
        <value>contains</value>
        .. other values ...
    </validOperators>
</field>

Cool, so something like this should be valid?

<field name="mark" type="text" length="100" required="true" defaultOperator="contains" validOperators="contains,notContains,equals,notEqual,startsWith">

UPDATE: This does not work. Please provide an example of the correct usage.

validOperators is something you can set in the .ds.xml file. You will not it is documented as such (in the ".serverds" package that describes .ds.xml properties).

yes, I currently use DataSourceField.setValidOperators(), but I am wondering if there is a simpler way, like setting it while defining the field name in the ds.xml. I just don't like having to set all the operators in the DS after. Might be a nice enhancement if not.

Thanks

You may looking for DataSourceField.validOperators?

Hello,

I am wondering is there is a way to set the operators inside the <field></field> section of the ds.xml file when defining the fields?

Something like

<field name="field_name" type="integer" operators="EQUALS,IN_SET,NOT_IN_SET..."/>
