I have written datautility extending AbstractDataUtility but textarea is not visible in table builder.Code is as follows.

public class AttributeTextAreaDataUtility extends AbstractAttributeDataUtility {

public Object getDataValue(String component_id, Object datum, ModelContext mc) throws WTException

{

super.getDataValue(component_id, datum, mc);

TextArea textarea = new TextArea();

TextArea textArea = GuiComponentUtil.createTextArea(1, 2, 3 );

//textArea.setColumnName(AttributeDataUtilityHelper.getColumnName(component_id, datum, mc));

textarea.setValue(getAttributeDisplayValue(component_id, component_id, datum, mc));

textarea.setReadOnly(true);

textarea.setWidth(40);

textarea.setHeight(5);

//textarea.setName(component_id);

return textarea;

}

private static String getAttributeDisplayValue(String attributeName,String componentId, Object datum, ModelContext mc)

throws WTException

{

Object raw_val = UtilityHelper.getRawValue(attributeName, datum, mc);

String value = UtilityHelper.getStringValue(raw_val, componentId,datum, mc);

return value;

}

Hello Hrishikesh,

Have you created a custom builder class? Are you trying to hook the datautility to an attribute from builder or is this attribute is OOTB attribue?

But whatever the case may be you dont need these many lines of code in a datautility to display a Text Box.

Just one method inside your datautiliy class is sufficient:

public Object getDataValue(String component_id, Object datum,

ModelContext modelcontext) throws WTException {

TextArea textArea = new TextArea();

textArea.setId(component_id);

textArea.setEditable(true);

textArea.setLabel("MY TEXT AREA");

textArea.setWidth(20);

return textArea;

}

Hrishikesh, I have used the same code many a times without any error. If you could send me your code may be i will be able to debug it and help you out. And finally do you want a Text Box or a Text Area?
