GetLinkDef Method

The GetLinkDef method returns the link definition of the child business component. This business component is the child in the parent and child relationship of a link. It returns this definition after Siebel Open UI processes data for the child business component. This definition includes values for the following properties:

  • Name

  • RecordNum

  • childBusCompName

  • destFieldName

  • interChildColName

  • interParentColName

  • interTableName

  • parentBusCompName

  • primeIdFieldName

  • searchSpec

  • sortSpec

  • srcFieldName

  • NoDelete

  • NoInsert

  • NointerDelete

  • NoUpdate

  • SrcFieldValue

If the value of a property is empty, then GetLinkDef does not return this property in the return object.

The GetLinkDef method uses the following syntax:

linkdef = busComp.GetLinkDef();   
var sourcefieldName = linkdef.srcFieldName;
