Select Topic dialog box

From the Save to Topic dialog box, the user can browse for existing topics. From the Browse link, the Select Topic dialog box appears where the user can select a topic or can view all properties for available topics.

The Select Topic dialog box from Oracle Empirica Signal can include filter fields to limit the topics that appear in the Select Topic table. When the user selects a topic and selects OK, the topic appears in the Topic name field of the Save to Topic dialog box.

Tasks

Your application invokes the following tasks to render the Select Topic dialog box.

• getFieldMetadata—Gets the topic field definitions that are used to populate the column headers in the Select Topic table.
• getFieldValues—Gets the topic field values to populate the rows in the Select Topic table.
• getFilters—Gets topic field definitions and values for topic fields that can be used as filters. An administrator can designate topic fields as filters. These fields can be displayed in this dialog so that a user can limit the list of topics based on the filters.

Note:

For the above calls, set the FieldContext parameter for the web service call to FieldContext.TOPICS.
