DataBinding with Subclass

Hello,

I've a DTO which extends BaseModel. These DTO contains another DTO which also extends BaseModel.
On my FormPanel I want to show Attributes from both DTO's how can I access attributes from the SubDTO?

Example:

PersonDTO extends BaseModel
Two attributes:
String name
CityDTO city

CityDTO extends BaseModel
Two attributes:
String name
String postalCode

My view only knows PersonDTO directly.
How to bind the attributes of CityDTO?

Thanks in advance

Kind regards
Jan

Have you tried to do something like "city.postalCode"?

Hey Sven,

thanks a lot. That worked, sorry that I haven't figured that out myself (it's so easy and straightforward).

But after solving this there's another thing I'm currently not able to solve. Let's say I set a new instance of CityDTO as attribute of my old instance of PersonDTO.
My view doesn't get updated. The new instances is in the model but my widgets (in my case a TextField) doesn't update! I'm using DataBindig. Once I save my view and reopen it everything is fine. But I want the widget to update on the fly.
Any Event I need to fire?

Would be nice if you have a solution for that too.

Kind regards
Jan

Are you using a ListStore? Than you can call store.update.

If not, than you would require more information of your code.

Ok in this case I don't have any ListStore. I'm using just two simple Classes which both extend BaseModel.

My TextField:

Code:

---

TextField<String> innendienstMaTelefon = new TextField<String>();
innendienstMaTelefon.setName("innendienstMa.telefon");
innendienstMaTelefon.setFieldLabel(messages.innendienstMaTelefon());
innendienstMaTelefon.setEnabled(false);
return innendienstMaTelefon;

My FormBinding:

Code:

---

FormBinding binding = new FormBinding(panel, true);
binding.autoBind();
binding.bind(customerDTO);

---

My CustomerDTO

Code:

---

What happens in my case:
The attribute innendienstMa of CustomerDTO is getting changed because a new entry in my ComboBox is selected. When the new selection happens I want the mentioned TextField to be updated.

I hope this clears things a bit?

Thanks for your effort!
Kind regards
Jan

Can you post a simplified testcase of what you are doing exactly? This testcase should implement EntryPoint. The code that changes your values is completely missing.
