WINDCHILL MULTIVALUED API

[VM_10716163]

Looking for API to set multiValue Attribute in create page of Promotion Request.

Values are taken from another MultiValued attribute.

EG:

Product under which PR is getting created has attribute A with values A,B,C

When I am creating Promotion request , attribute in PR should take values from that attribute of product (Multivalued and editable)

Help would be appriciated.

Thanks

Get Multi IBA Value :

PersistableAdapter chObj;

chObj = new PersistableAdapter(persistable, null, Locale.US, null);

chObj.load(s);

Object ibaObject= chObj.get(s);

LOGGER.debug("getIBAValue: " + chObj.getAsString(s));

return ibaObject;

When you use above method, you can just check the instance of and see if its an array and parse multi values to set:

if (objValue instanceof Object[]) {

  Object values[] = (Object[]) objValue;

          for (Object value : values) {

          basePartFinishCodes.add(value.toString());

          }

  }

Set Multi IBA Value, you just need to pass an Array of values to set:

PersistableAdapter adapter = new PersistableAdapter(obj, null, Locale.US, null);

adapter.load(attrName);

adapter.set(attrName, value);

obj = adapter.apply();

IBAValueDBService ibaserv = new IBAValueDBService();

ibaserv.updateAttributeContainer((IBAHolder)obj, ((DefaultAttributeContainer)((IBAHolder)obj).getAttributeContainer()).getConstraintParameter(),null,null);

PersistenceServerHelper.manager.update(obj);

Hello Abhishek,

Thanks for your response.

But in create page of PR , I am not seeing object as Promotion request.

Object is coming as wtpart on which this PR is getting created?

How can I get PR object (in Data utility Create page)

Hi @abhishekarya 

In the crate wizard a promotion request object does not exists so you can not get them. 

In data utility in the crate wizard you can get a context where the wizard is activated and get the parameter from that context (product library)

Also the multivalued attributes are separated by "@" character
