It's working now… Need to add mandatory…

<field id="sgfwf:centre1" set="other" mandatory="true">‍

Now I search to run Java code in my constraint-handlers. Perhaps I have to run a webscript from the JS… but I have no access to remote.connect(… from my js…
Some ideas ?

Hi Dranakan,

Our team is also working on the same kind of scenario. We need to validate our workflow form. Dan we use contraint handler to call the java clasfrom where we can connect it to our custom database. If you have worked on it, can you please share the concept with us.

Thanks & Regards
Anand.

Hi Anand,

I have used a datatable (http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/datatable/) to show the information in a field.
Inside this datatable js code, I have put some call to webscript that check the value (depending on other fields).


…
DTP.dtpDatatable.subscribe("editorSaveEvent", function(oArgs) {
         var target = oArgs.editor.getTdEl();
         var column = DTP.dtpDatatable.getColumn(target);

         if (column.key == "centre") {
            …
            DTP.checkCentreCell(oArgs.editor.getRecord(), null, urlArgs);

         …

   /*
    * Check if the data is correct.
    */
   checkCentreCell : function(record, row,urlArgs){
      var callbacks = {
            success : function(o) {
               // Process the JSON data returned from the
               // server
               var values = [];
               try {
                  values = YAHOO.lang.JSON.parse(o.responseText);
                  var value = "";
                  if (values.length > 0) {
                     value = values[0].result;
                  }
                  if (value == "true") {
                     /* Data exist */
                  } else {

                     …
                     DTP.setValueInCell(record,row,"centre","");
                     DTP.setValueInCell(record,row,"centredes","");
                     …
                  }
               } catch (e) {
                  return;
               }
            },

            failure : function(o) {
               if (!YAHOO.util.Connect.isCallInProgress(o)) {
                  // Clean 
                  …
                  DTP.setValueInCell(record,row,"centre","");
                  DTP.setValueInCell(record,row,"centredes","");
                  …
               }
            },

            timeout : 3000
         }
         var sUrl = Alfresco.constants.PROXY_URI
               + "custom/checkFromDatatable + "?firmNb=" + DTP.firmNb
               + "&fir_db=" + DTP.fir_db + urlArgs;
         var request = YAHOO.util.Connect.asyncRequest('GET', sUrl, callbacks);
   },
