  • SalesRepView (0)
  • ManagerView (1)
  • PersonalView (2)
  • AllView (3)
  • OrganizationView (5)
  • GroupView (7)
  • CatalogView (8)
  • SubOrganizationView (9)
Usage

GetViewMode() returns NoneSetView mode until a business component is executed or has its view mode set through SetViewMode(). The NoneSetViewMode value indicates that the business component has not yet had any visibility rules applied to it. A business component that has just been created through a call to GetBusComp() is in this state, so if a specific view mode is desired, it must be explicitly set through SetViewMode(). Otherwise, the first time the business component is executed, its view mode is set according to the most restrictive visibility mode defined for that business component.

Used With

COM Data Control, COM Data Server, Java Data Bean, Mobile Web Client Automation Server, Server Script
