Customize the Operators on FilterBuilder

johnm · July 23, 2010, 2:00pm

Using the FilterBuilder widget, how do I customize the choices in the second dropdown menu for each column?

I did not see any example of how to do this in the Showcase, and the documentation seems vague.

Is this even possible?

Thanks!

That link mentions to use getDataSource on the FilterBuilder instance, then call getFieldOperators.

However, the method getFieldOperators (or, presumably, setFieldOperators), does not exist in the javadoc. http://www.smartclient.com/smartgwt/javadoc/com/smartgwt/client/data/DataSource.html

Can you please clarify how I would set the operators for certain fields, when using a FilterBuilder?

Thanks!

It can set globally or by field via DataSourceField.setValidOperators().
