History

#1 Updated by Ovidiu Maxiniuc almost 7 years ago

  • Related to Bug #1830: implement SYSTEM-DIALOG-GET-FILE support added

#2 Updated by Ovidiu Maxiniuc almost 7 years ago

  • Status changed from New to WIP
Added conversion support in task branch 1830a, revision 11159.
The full-syntax construct like this:
SYSTEM-DIALOG PRINTER-SETUP
   NUM-COPIES 3 + 2
   LANDSCAPE
   PORTRAIT
   UPDATE OKpressed
   IN WINDOW CURRENT-WINDOW.

will be converted in java as:
PrintingService.createSetupDialog()
               .setCopyCount(plus(3, 2))
               .setOrientation(PrintingService.LANDSCAPE)
               .setOrientation(PrintingService.PORTRAIT)
               .update(okpressed)
               .setWindow(currentWindow())
               .execute();

Notes:
  • the static method call handles the mandatory parameters;
  • each non-static method call (except execute) from the chaining represents an option that sets up the server-side configuration of the statement;
  • finally, the execute method does the actual call on client side that will open the chooser dialog, based on options selected.

For now, the implementation is not directly mapped to the Windows printer dialog. Instead it is designed to support a PDF-only output.
