DoADSValidations method: AdsValidationBase class

Syntax

DoADSValidations(&ADS_rowset, ADS_name)

Description

In the base class supplied by Oracle, this method provides basic validation of static prompts, translate values, Y/N values, and required fields.

The base class method will be automatically invoked for each ADS instance when ADS projects are copied or compared unless the method is overridden in the derived application class for the current ADS definition. If the method is overridden, then the overriding method from the derived class will be automatically invoked. During copy, this method is called for all objects in the project before any objects are copied so that a single validation error anywhere in the project will prevent any objects from being copied.

When this method encounters a validation error, it invokes the ReportErrorModified method to store the error in the database so that it can be reviewed later on the Validation page.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
&ADS_rowset	Specifies the current ADS rowset instance as a rowset object. The rowset contains the data from the source project file.
ADS_name	Specifies the name of the current ADS definition as a string.

Returns

A Boolean value: True if all basic validations succeeded, False if any errors were encountered.

Example

import PTADSDEFN:AdsValidationBase;

class AdsValidationSample extends PTADSDEFN:AdsValidationBase
   method AdsValidationSample(&ProjectName As string);
   method DoADSValidations(&ADSRowset As Rowset, &ADSName As string,) Returns boolean;
end-class;

method AdsValidationSample
   /+ &ProjectName as String +/
   %Super = create PTADSDEFN:AdsValidationBase(&ProjectName);
end-method;

method DoADSValidations
   /+ &ADSRowset as Rowset, +/
   /+ &ADSName as String +/
   /+ Returns Boolean +/
   /* delegate to the base class DoADSValidations method */
   Return %Super.DoADSValidations(&ADSRowset, &ADSName);
end-method;
