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.
