GetViewMode Method for a Business Component

The GetViewMode returns a Siebel ViewMode constant or the corresponding integer value for this constant. This constant identifies the current visibility mode for a business component. This mode effects the records that queries return according to the visibility rules. For more information, see SetViewMode Method for a Business Component and Use Constants to Standardize Code.

BusComp.GetViewMode

No arguments are available.

Usage

The GetViewMode method returns NoneSetView mode until one of the following situations is true:

• Siebel CRM queries a business component.

• The SetViewMode method sets the view mode for the business component.

The NoneSetViewMode value indicates that no visibility rules are applied to the business component. If Siebel CRM creates a business component through a call to the GetBusComp method, then the value for that business component is NoneSetViewMode. If you require a specific view mode, then you must use the SetViewMode method to set this view mode. If you do not use the SetViewMode method, then Siebel CRM sets the view mode according to the most restrictive visibility mode that is defined for that business component. It does this the first time that it creates a business component instance.
