Description

The functionparams attribute specifies the extra parameters an action of javascript type can receive. This attribute can be used only when the location is "local".

Usage

<action
   name = NAME
   type = "javascript"
   function = FUNCTION
   functionparams = SEMMICOLON_SEPARATED_PARAMS
   ...
/>

If the JavaScript function we are calling receives two extra parameters it must be declared as follows:

 function name(obj, ids, param1, param2) {
    ...
 }

Example

• showSelectedPersonInfo Action:

function showSelectedPersonInfo(obj, ids, firstName, lastName) {
    alert(firstName + " " + lastName + " id: " + ids[0]);
}

<entity name="Person" label="Person">
     <property name="firstName" label="First name" display="secondary" />
     <property name="lastName" label="Last name" display="primary" />
     <action name="showSelected" location="local" type="javascript"
            function="showSelectedPersonInfo" functionparams="firstName;lastName"/>
</entity>
