Refreshing Custom Events

Siebel Open UI does not come predefined to refresh a custom event. The example in this topic describes how to modify this behavior.

To refresh custom events

1. Add the following code:

   this.AddMethod("RefreshHandler", function(x, y, z){
     // Add code here that does processing for RefreshHandler.
   });
   

   This code adds the RefreshHandler custom event handler.

2. Add the following code in the presentation model so that it is aware of the event that the RefreshEventHandler specifies:

   this.AttachEventHandler("Refresh", "RefreshHandler");
   

   For more information, see AttachEventHandler Method.

3. Add the following code in the bindevents method of the plug-in wrapper:

   this.Helper("EventHelper").Manage(buttonEl, "click", { ctx: this }, 
   function(event){
         event.data.ctx.GetPM().OnControlEvent("Refresh", value1, value2, valueN);
   

   This code binds the event to the presentation model. For more information, see OnControlEvent Method.
