Combined Properties

Beans can contain properties, whose editing depends on the settings of other properties. The depending properties can only be edited regarding the settings of theother properties.

E.g. at the event ActionPerformed of the SButton, the property ActionPerformedMacroParameters can only be edited, when the property ActionPerformedMacro allows parmeters.

Some system editors require, that the depending properties are registered on the same property page.

Macro

When the class MacroParameterGroupEditor will be used as editor to describe an event , the following must be regarded:

• The according property must end with MacroParameters enden
• There must be the according macro property with the ending Macro,
• The parameter types of both classes must be [Ljava.lang.String; resp. java.lang.String

Database

When using the editors TableColumnGroupEditor, ReportColumnGroupEditor, PFormatReportColumnGroupEditor, TableDefinitionGroupEditor the following must be regarded:

• The arises by the implementation of the according interfaces as follows:

  DataBean	ControlSource • TableSource
  FilterBean	FilteredControlSource • FilteredTableSource
  SearchBean	SearchControlSource • SearchTableSource

• When the property is not given by one of these interfaces, it depends on the property TableSource
• The parameter types of the classes must be of the type java.lang.String.
• The referenced properties must be set on the same property page.

Examplel: When the properties TableSource and ControlSource will be inserted in a created Bean-Schema , the Page of both properties must contain the same value (s. fig. 293 ).
