  • PersonalView (2)
  • AllView (3)
  • OrganizationView (5)
  • GroupView (7)
  • CatalogView (8)

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 some internal rules.

Used With

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