How to Check the Batch Promt action choice, in Batch processing? - dialog

In my customClass extends RunBaseBatch in method main I need to check the choice selected in to Batch Promt (if is OK or Cancel), in case the Flag Batch processing is selected ON.
server public static void main(Args _args = null)
{
MyCustomClass_BATCH localMyCustomClass_BATCH;
localMyCustomClass_BATCH= new MyCustomClass_BATCH ();
if (localMyCustomClass_BATCH.prompt() )
{
localMyCustomClass_BATCH.run();
}
// HERE I want to check the action selected, if it's OK or Cancel.
}
Thanks all.

If prompt returns true, OK was pressed and it is not in batch.
It returns false, if cancel is pressed or batch was selected.
The OK/Cancel does not belong to the Batch pane, but to the runbase dialog as such.
You can test whether batch was selected or not, but I do not see a great use case for this.
server public static void main(Args _args)
{
MyCustomClass_BATCH myThing = new MyCustomClass_BATCH();
if (myThing.prompt())
myThing.run(); // OK, not in batch
else if (myThing.batchInfo().parmBatchExecute())
info("We will go batch");
else
info("Action cancelled");
}
The myThing.batchInfo().parmBatchExecute() will return false if Cancel was pressed, even if "Batch processing" was checked in the dialog. Check the source of RunBaseBatch.prompt to see why.

Cannot trigger cancel button action after processing results returned

Within the Acumatica 19.201.0070 framework I have created a custom processing page that utilizes PXFilteredProcessing with the old style processing UI public override bool IsProcessing => false; I have defined a cancel button (below) that will clear the graph and set some values of the processing filter.
public PXCancel<NPMasterSubGeneratorFilter> Cancel;
[PXCancelButton()]
protected virtual IEnumerable cancel(PXAdapter adapter)
{
NPMasterSubGeneratorFilter row = Filter.Current;
if (row != null)
{
this.Clear();
Filter.SetValueExt<NPMasterSubGeneratorFilter.segmentID>(Filter.Current, row.SegmentID);
if (!(row.NewSegment ?? false)) Filter.SetValueExt<NPMasterSubGeneratorFilter.segmentValue>(Filter.Current, row.SegmentValue);
}
return adapter.Get();
}
This works perfectly fine except for a single use case, after processing results are shown if the user then presses the cancel button the corresponding action is never hit. ( My fellow office devs state that core Acumatica processing pages seem to operate the same. )
Setting of the processing delegate is within the filter RowSelected event.
GeneratedSubs.SetProcessDelegate(list => CreateSubaccounts(list, row));
I have implemented a few iterations of my processing method but the current is below.
protected virtual void CreateSubaccounts(List<NPGeneratedSub> subs, NPMasterSubGeneratorFilter filter)
{
if (filter.NewSegment ?? false)
{
try
{
SegmentMaint segGraph = PXGraph.CreateInstance<SegmentMaint>();
segGraph.Segment.Update(segGraph.Segment.Search<Segment.dimensionID, Segment.segmentID>(AADimension.Subaccount, filter.SegmentID.Value));
SegmentValue value = segGraph.Values.Insert(new SegmentValue() { Value = filter.SegmentValue, Descr = filter.Description });
segGraph.Actions.PressSave();
}
catch
{
throw new PXOperationCompletedSingleErrorException(NonProfitPlusMessages.SegmentValueCannotCreate);
}
}
SubAccountMaint subGraph = PXGraph.CreateInstance<SubAccountMaint>();
NPSubAccountMaintExtension subGraphExt = subGraph.GetExtension<NPSubAccountMaintExtension>();
subGraphExt.save.ConfirmSaving = false;
Sub newSub;
bool errored = false;
foreach (NPGeneratedSub sub in subs)
{
PXProcessing<NPGeneratedSub>.SetCurrentItem(sub);
try
{
newSub = subGraph.SubRecords.Insert(new Sub() { SubCD = sub.SubCD, Description = sub.Description });
subGraph.Save.Press();
subGraph.Clear();
PXProcessing<NPGeneratedSub>.SetProcessed();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
PXProcessing<NPGeneratedSub>.SetError(e);
errored = true;
}
}
if (errored)
{
throw new PXOperationCompletedWithErrorException();
}
}
What needs to be adjusted to allow the buttons action to be triggered on press after processing results have been returned?
After stepping through the javascript I discovered that it wasn't sending a request to the server when you click the cancel button on this screen after processing. The reason is because SuppressActions is getting set to true on the Cancel PXToolBarButton. I compared what I was seeing on this screen to what was happening on screens that work correctly and realized that Acumatica is supposed to set SuppressActions to true on the Schedule drop down PXToolBarButton but for some reason, on this screen, it is incorrectly setting it to true on whatever button is after the Schedule drop down button.
I looked through the code in PX.Web.UI and it looks like they set SuppressActions to true when a drop down button is disabled and PXProcessing adds a FieldSelecting event to the Schedule button which disables the button after you click process. However, I didn't notice any obvious issues as to why the code would be setting it on the wrong PXToolBarButton so someone will likely need to debug the code and see what's going on (we are unable to debug code in PX.Web.UI.dll).
I tried commenting out the other grids in the aspx file that aren't related to the PXProcessing view and this resolved the issue. So my guess would be that having multiple grids on the PXProcessing screen somehow causes a bug where it sets SuppressActions on the wrong PXToolBarButton. However, since the multiple grids are a business requirement, removing them is not a solution. Instead, I would suggest moving all buttons that are after the schedule button to be before the schedule button. To do this, just declare the PXActions before the PXFilteredProcessing view in the graph.
Please try this
Override IsDirty property
Use PXAction instead of PXCancel
Add PXUIField attribute with enable rights
action name should start from lowercase letter
delegate name should start from uppercase letter
see code below
public override bool IsDirty => false;
public override bool IsProcessing
{
get { return false;}
set { }
}
public PXAction<NPMasterSubGeneratorFilter> cancel;
[PXUIField(MapEnableRights = PXCacheRights.Select)]
[PXCancelButton]
protected virtual IEnumerable Cancel(PXAdapter adapter)
{
NPMasterSubGeneratorFilter row = Filter.Current;
if (row != null)
{
this.Clear();
Filter.SetValueExt<NPMasterSubGeneratorFilter.segmentID>(Filter.Current, row.SegmentID);
if (!(row.NewSegment ?? false)) Filter.SetValueExt<NPMasterSubGeneratorFilter.segmentValue>(Filter.Current, row.SegmentValue);
}
return adapter.Get();
}

Many thanks in advance!
Avoid showing dialog in the RowSelected method. That method is called every time a record is fetched so it will display it in an uncontrollable loop.
Also check the return value of the dialog to know which button was pressed.
To show the dialog when the Process button is pressed, override the Process method. You might have to change 'Base' depending on the context (PXGraph/PXGraphExtension):
[PXProcessButton]
[PXUIField(DisplayName = "Process", MapEnableRights = PXCacheRights.Update, MapViewRights = PXCacheRights.Update)]
protected override IEnumerable Process(PXAdapter adapter)
{
if (Base.Ask("ConfirmationTitle", "ConfirmationMessage", MessageButtons.YesNo) != WebDialogResult.Yes)
{
// Click on No, don't execute the base Process action
return adapter.Get();
}
// Click on Yes, execute the base Process action
return Base.Process(adapter);
}

Enable/Disable Edit box with help of Check-box control (MFC)

I have a checkbox and an edit control. I want to disable the Edit control when Check-box is 'not checked', and enable Edit control when Check-box is 'checked.
OnBnClickedCheck1 gets called when I check/uncheck the check-box. m_CHECK1_VARIABLE tells me if the check box is checked or un-checked. If-else part is executed correctly but m_TEXT1_CONTROL.EnableWindow(FALSE/TRUE) doesn't seem to work.
Below is the code.
void CPreparationDlg::OnBnClickedCheck1()
{
UpdateData(TRUE);
if (m_CHECK1_VARIABLE)
{
m_TEXT1_CONTROL.EnableWindow(TRUE);
}
else if (m_CHECK1_VARIABLE)
{
m_TEXT1_CONTROL.EnableWindow(FALSE);
}
}
There are 2 cases.
When Edit-box is disabled by default when dialog pops up.
If the Edit-box is enabled by default (I set 'Disabled' behavior in dialog properties to 'False'), Edit-box stays enabled throughout the operation. (check and uncheck operation on check-box)
When Edit-box is enabled by default when dialog pops up.
When I disable the Edit-box by default (I set 'Disabled' behavior in dialog properties to 'True'), Edit-box becomes enabled on 'first' 'check' on the Check-box but stays enabled throughout the rest of the operation. (check and uncheck operation on check-box).
What is it that I am missing here?
The following code example will implement the required logic.
Header file:
public:
int m_Check;
CEdit m_EditBox;
afx_msg void OnBnClickedCheck1();
Class implementation source:
CMfcApplicationDlg::CMfcApplicationDlg(CWnd* pParent /*=NULL*/)
: CDialog(CMfcApplicationDlg::IDD, pParent)
, m_Check(0) // Default checkbox state
{
// ...
}
void CMfcApplicationDlg::DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX)
{
CDialog::DoDataExchange(pDX);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_EDIT1, m_EditBox);
DDX_Check(pDX, IDC_CHECK1, m_Check);
m_EditBox.EnableWindow(m_Check);
}
void CMfcApplicationDlg::OnBnClickedCheck1()
{
UpdateData();
}
All required functionality can be implemented inside the DoDataExchange() method. First time the edit box control state set according to the m_Check default value. And each next time the edit box control state will be triggered by OnBnClickedCheck1() event.
IMHO using DoDataExchange(..) to maintain the state of a dialog is dicey at best. Add a member like UdateState( ) and use that. Stage the dialog in OnInitDialog( ) with anything that doesn't easily initialize in the constructor and call UpdateState( ).
Use DoDataExchange(..) only to do what it sounds like, exchange data between the dialog and objects. This way you won't paint yourself into a corner as the Dialog evolves.
//....h
CEdit m_EditBox;
CButton m_CheckBox;
//...cpp
BOOL MyDialog::OnInitDialog( )
{
if( ! CDialogEx::OnInitDialog( ) )
return FALSE;
//do more stuff then
UpdateState( );
return TRUE;
}
void MyDialog::UpdateState( )
{
m_EditBox.EnableWindow( m_CheckBox.GetCheck( ) == BST_CHECKED );
//more state stuff...
}
void MyDialog::OnBnClickedCheck1( )
{
UpdateState( );
}

How should one implement a change state dialog with undo/redo support in Catel?

I cannot get Undo and Redo to behave correctly when using a dialog.
I have a simple model with a property indicating the state of the object(running, paused, stopped) which can be altered via a dialog. What happens is that I get actions that seems to do nothing in my undo queue or undo restores the object to an intermediate state.
The model object is registered with memento in the constructor. The dialog has three radio buttons each representing one of the three different states. Each radio button is bind to a command each. Each command performs a change of the property. I have tried two different approaches, either each command sets the property directly in the object or each command sets an instance variable for the view model when called and then I use the Saving event to modify the object.
If using the first approach each property change is put on the Undo queue if the user clicks on more than just one radiobutton before clicking Ok in the dialog. Tried to solve that by wrapping the whole dialog into a batch but that results in undoing the state change the object is restored to the state it had before the final one, i.e. if the property was set to stopped before the dialog opened and the user pressed the pause radiobutton, then start one and finally Ok, undo will set the property to paused instead of the expected stopped.
If using the second approach the user opens the dialog, change the state to paused, click Ok in the dialog the undo/redo behaves as expected but if the dialog is opened again and Cancel is chosen one more action is added to the Undo queue, i.e. the user has to click Undo twice to get back to the initial stopped-state.
So my question is how should this be correctly implemented to get the expected behaviour; that each dialog interaction can be undone and not every interaction in the dialog?
Here is the code for the ViewModel:
namespace UndoRedoTest.ViewModels
{
using Catel.Data;
using Catel.MVVM;
public class StartStopViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
Machine.MachineState _state;
public StartStopViewModel(Machine controlledMachine)
{
ControlledMachine = controlledMachine;
_state = controlledMachine.State;
StartMachine = new Command(OnStartMachineExecute);
PauseMachine = new Command(OnPauseMachineExecute);
StopMachine = new Command(OnStopMachineExecute);
Saving += StartStopViewModel_Saving;
}
void StartStopViewModel_Saving(object sender, SavingEventArgs e)
{
ControlledMachine.State = _state;
}
[Model]
public Machine ControlledMachine
{
get { return GetValue<Machine>(ControlledMachineProperty); }
private set { SetValue(ControlledMachineProperty, value); }
}
public static readonly PropertyData ControlledMachineProperty = RegisterProperty("ControlledMachine", typeof(Machine));
public override string Title { get { return "Set Machine state"; } }
public Command StartMachine { get; private set; }
public Command PauseMachine { get; private set; }
public Command StopMachine { get; private set; }
private void OnStartMachineExecute()
{
_state = Machine.MachineState.RUNNING;
//ControlledMachine.SecondState = Machine.MachineState.RUNNING;
}
private void OnPauseMachineExecute()
{
_state = Machine.MachineState.PAUSED;
//ControlledMachine.SecondState = Machine.MachineState.PAUSED;
}
private void OnStopMachineExecute()
{
_state = Machine.MachineState.STOPPED;
//ControlledMachine.SecondState = Machine.MachineState.STOPPED;
}
}
}
First of all, don't subscribe to the Saving event but simply override the Save() method. Note that Catel handles the model state for you when you decorate a model with the ModelAttribute. Therefore you need to get the prestate and poststate of the dialog and then push the result set into a batch.
For example, I would create extension methods for the object class (or model class) like this:
public static Dictionary<string, object> GetProperties(this IModel model)
{
// todo: return properties
}
Then you do this in the Initialize and in the Save method and you would have 2 sets of properties (pre state and post state). Now you have that, it's easy to calculate the differences:
public static Dictionary<string, object> GetChangedProperties(Dictionary<string, object> preState, Dictionary<string, object> postState)
{
// todo: calculate difference
}
Now you have the difference, you can create a memento batch and it would restore the exact state as you expected.
ps. it would be great if you could put this into a blog post once done or create a PR with this feature

SPItemEvent: abort the event from the EventHandler

How can I abort an item even (in my case, ItemDeleting) so that it doesn'r get executed? I want the deletion not to take place if certain conditions are matched and do it silently for the use (no messages, no exceptions). Thanks
EDIT:
SP 2010
public override void ItemDeleting(SPItemEventProperties properties) {
properties.Cancel = true;
properties.ErrorMessage = "Something went wrong!";
}
If you cancel it though, it will be reported back to the user, nothing you can do about that.
UPDATE
For use the Status property
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.speventpropertiesbase.status.aspx
public override void ItemDeleting(SPItemEventProperties properties) {
properties.Status = SPEventReceiverStatus.CancelNoError;
}
