<explorerTreeDef> Element

The explorerTreeDef element is a member of the following categories:

Use the ExplorerTree element to create an instance of the oracle.dss.thin.beans.persistence.ExplorerTree class, which lets users browse the BI Beans Catalog. The Explorer Tree was designed for use with an Explorer Detail in a frame-based application.

Important: In the current release of BI Beans, the explorerDetailDef element provides full browsing capability for the BI Beans Catalog. Consider using the explorerDetailDef element rather than the explorerTreeDef element, especially when you view a Catalog with folders that may contain a large number of items.

Attributes

id -- (Required) A unique identifier for this element.

scope -- Determines the accessibility and lifetime of the object; select one of the following values: Request or Session (Default). Use the default value if you want to be able to refer to this object from a different page in your application.

rootName -- A label for the default root folder in the BI Beans Catalog. This folder is identified at the time that you create the connection to the Catalog.

selectedFolder -- The path and name of a folder that is to be highlighted as a selection when the UIX page is displayed.

allowFilter -- Indicates whether to display filter controls as part of this object.

allowSearch -- Indicates whether to display search controls as part of this object.

selectFolderPage -- Specifies the page to navigate to after a folder is selected. This page should contain the explorerDetailDef element. Note: If this attribute is not specified, then the current UIX page becomes the destination page and, therefore, must contain the explorerDetailDef element.

selectFolderTargetId -- (Required) Specifies the identifier of the object (such as an explorerDetailDef element) to which this explorerTreeDef element will send events when a folder is selected. If the selectFolderPage attribute is specified, then the selectFolderTargetId attribute must be contained in that page. If the selectFolderPage attribute is not specified, then the selectFolderTargetId must be contained in the same page as the explorerTreeDef element.

searchPage -- (Valid only if the allowSearch attribute is True.) Specifies the page to navigate to if the Go button of this ExplorerTree object is selected.

searchTargetId -- (Valid only if the allowSearch attribute is True.) Specifies the identifier of the element that is to display search results. This identifier must be contained in the page that is referenced by the searchPage attribute.

Usage notes
