Hi All,

 

Im Trying to append a row to a table which is bound to a complex BO as shown below

var autoObject = [];
autoObject[0] = {};
autoObject[0].cust = {};
autoObject[0].cust.name = “”;
autoObject[0].cust.age = “”;
autoObject[0].cust.sex = “”;
autoObject

This is bound to table

On click of a button we are trying to append a row to the table using the code below in on-click event of a button.

code to append a row:

${sampletable1}.appendElement({ name:”Suhas”,age:”29″,sex:”male”});

On click of the button, an empty row is appended without any data that was set using the code above.

when we bind the table to a simple complex object list, the functionality works fine,

Is there any specific was to reference the element of a complex object stated above?

P.S I have already tried cust.name, cust/name and it doesn’t work

Hello Suhas,

If the Table control is bound to a complex object, each row is an object.  Table1.add() and Table1.add( {} ) are equivalent, and create a new blank row.  If you want to populate your row with values, the property names must be added to the statement Table1.add( { property1:value1, property2:value2 } ).

However, your object is defined with property1, property2, complex1, and complex1 has subProperty1, subProperty2.  Your add statement needs to reference the complex object inside the row: Table1.add( {property1:value1, property2:value2, complex1: {subProperty1:subValue1, subProperty2:subValue2} } );
