Parameter tag attributes | |
changeable | A mandatory attribute that determines when the
parameter is changed and that applies to all *Param tags. The attribute
has four values:
|
id | A mandatory attribute that specifies the ID
of the parameter and that applies to all *Param tags. Every parameter
has a unique ID. You can use the same ID for multiple parameters. Only the first parameter is visible in the user interface. The other parameters copy their values from the first parameter. This convention is useful if the same information is displayed in multiple headers or if the same view is used in multiple components. |
name | A mandatory attribute that specifies the name of the parameter and that applies to all *Param tags. In a component tag, the name is the unique identifier that is used when parameters are searched for. Common names are viewId, attrId, elementId, pageno. |
masterid | The ID for the parameter that controls the parameter. This attribute is mandatory, but might not be used depending on the component. This attribute applies to attrParam. Typically, the master parameter is a viewParam. You must set the master parameter first or you cannot know which attributes or elements are available. |
type | Determines the attribute type that is allowed
for this parameter. This attribute is mandatory, but might not be
used depending on the component. This attribute applies to attrParam.
You can use the following type attributes:
|
defaultvalue | A parameter is set to defaultvalue the first time that the report type is created or edited, or the first time that the report is generated. This attribute is optional and applies to all *Param tags. The default value is an empty string:defaultvalue="". |
descr | The description of the parameter. This attribute is optional. The description is displayed when the report type is created or edited, or when the report is generated. The default is to not use a description: descr="". |
