How to create new Object or Cloning of ListGrid in Smart Client


I want to create an object of ListGrid component in Smart Client.

isc.ListGrid.create({
  ID: "countryList",
   width:500, height:224, top:50, alternateRecordStyles:true,
   fields:[
     {name:"countryCode", title:"Flag", width:50, type:"image", imageURLPrefix:"flags/16/", imageURLSuffix:".png"},  
     {name:"countryName", title:"Country"},  
     {name:"capital", title:"Capital"},  
     {name:"continent", title:"Continent"}  
]}) ; 

Now countryList is the ID for the ListGrid component .

Let us suppose that this Grid has possess some values and i want to put some other values like values from database and there is a condition that we don't have to override or change previous values.So we need to create a new object of countryList .

How can we achieve this?


Solution

  • I don't understand if you need another instance of the same ListGrid, or if you need to display different data in the same ListGrid.

    If you need another instance, you could define a class:

    isc.defineClass("MyGrid", "ListGrid");
    isc.MyGrid.addProperties({
      width:500, height:224, top:50, alternateRecordStyles:true,
      fields:[
        {name:"countryCode", title:"Flag", width:50, type:"image", imageURLPrefix:"flags/16/", imageURLSuffix:".png"},  
        {name:"countryName", title:"Country"},  
        {name:"capital", title:"Capital"},  
        {name:"continent", title:"Continent"}  
      ]
    });
    isc.MyGrid.create({ID: "countryList"});
    isc.MyGrid.create({ID: "countryList2"});
    

    Otherwise, if you need to show different data in the same ListGrid instance, you could do:
