FormData anotation

  • A obj.pngFormData FormData annotation
    • Is needed on the form Class

Structure of a FormData

The FormData depends from the Form it contains the data. The SDK generate:

  • For each ValueField a AbstractValueFieldData<T> is generated.
  • For each TableField a TableData is generated.
  • For each form-variable an AbstractPropertyData<T>

The inner-class structure from the composite field (like groupboxes) get lost, unless Group-Box templates are used.

The value fields properties (getConfiguredMandatory(), getConfiguredMaxValue(), getConfiguredMaxLength()...) are mapped to ValidationRules conatained in the formData. Those rules are used to redo the basic UI client-side validations on the server.
