Invoking the ShowCDA Method from a Button


Use the following procedure to invoke the ShowCDA method from a button.

To call your application from another Siebel application

  1. In Siebel Tools, create a button control on your applet.
  2. See Siebel Tools Reference for information.

  3. For the Method property of the button, invoke the ShowCDA method.
  4. Use the syntax:

    ShowCDA(`ProjectDirectory|Pageset ID')

    NOTE:  This step will work only if your applet class inherits from CSSFrame Base.

    The contents list of the default project appears when the button is clicked in your applet at runtime, unless you specified a different project.

For more information about the ShowCDA function, refer to Siebel Interactive Designer API Reference.

You can also invoke the ShowCDA method to display an application at the applet level rather than the project level. For more information, see the following section.
