You can read the whole model, not sure where your query strings are there, and I might just put those into your D2W rules myself.

You can write rules that reach a session or session.user and write “(session.user.role = '%@' && active = ‘true')” or something using keys that are dynamically filled at runtime -- so your logic can include both query args and format in rules.

I have components that read an array of args from D2W and then a format string and the query just comes out and fills the list. I can adjust my D2W rules and see the sort orderings or batch settings and adjust the qualifier all in rules

Maybe that helps

Dear Listers,

Another (probably stupid) question for you…

In my D2W Wonder app I have an entity ‘Registro’ and set the InspectRegistro page to display a userPresentableDescription attribute. I have created a custom WOComponent called ‘RegistroDocente’ to display this attribute, basically extending AjaxGrid. I have obviusly set the relevant rule in d2w.d2wmodel and so far so good but...

I have also defined some fetch specifications in my EOModeler which use some $variables, and here’s the problem: I cannot find a way to get the RegistroDocente component to get hold of attributes in entity Registro, and I need them to get the fetch specifications working.

Am I supposed to bind these attributes/variables somewhere? Is there a specific EOEditingContext I must use for this? I am stunned :-/

Thank you for helping
Walter
