Summary

Error Messages

Steps to Reproduce

1. Launch a modal dialog (not associated with the pyWorkPage or a work object, but on Data-Portal page)
2. The modal window section should include properties both directly on the Data-Portal page and from other pages.
3. Run validations using validation rules associated to the local action launching the modal.
4. Failing validation on the property configured on the Data-Portal page prevents the modal window submission.
5. But failing validation on properties belonging to other pages do not prevent modal window submission.

Root Cause

Validation failure of the property belonging to Data-Portal sets the error messages on pyDisplayHarness. This prevents the modal window from submission until the error is cleared. However, when a property belonging to a different page fails validation, the error messages are set on the page the property belongs to. In the above case, when AddressPage.pyPhoneNumber fails validation, the error messages are set on AddressPage and not on pyDisplayHarness. Since no error messages are found on pyDisplayHarness, the modal window is allowed to submit even when errors are present.

Resolution

Activity details:

String SourcePagesString = tools.getParamValue("sourcePage");

ClipboardPage TargetPage = tools.findPage("pyDisplayHarness");

if (SourcePagesString.length() > 0 && TargetPage != null) {

String[] SourcePages = SourcePagesString.split(",");

if (SourcePages != null && SourcePages.length > 0) {

for (int index = 0; index < SourcePages.length; index++) {

String SourcePageString = SourcePages[index];

if (SourcePageString.length() > 0) {

ClipboardPage SourcePage = tools.findPage(SourcePageString);

if (SourcePage != null) {

String SourceErrorMessages = SourcePage.getMessagesAll();

if (SourceErrorMessages.length() > 0) {

TargetPage.addMessage(SourceErrorMessages);

}

}

}
