Name Java Class

The Name Java Class enables you to use the PeopleSoft reserved item references. This enables you to reference pages, components, records, fieldnames, and so on.

For example, in PeopleCode you can refer to a record field using the following:

            recname.fieldname

With the Name class, you can use a similar construct:

new PeopleSoft.PeopleCode.Name("RECNAME", "FIELDNAME");

Note that these must be in the exact case as the item. As all PeopleTools items are named in uppercase, that means you must use uppercase.

As another example, in PeopleCode you can refer to a page using the following:

PAGE.pagename

In Java, it would be:

new PeopleSoft.PeopleCode.Name("PAGE", "PAGENAME");
