Creating a CUSTOM Filter dialog for a column

#1 Post by rdonnay »

The DC_XbpColumnFiltered class has a method named GetFilter().

This method is invoked when a user right-clicks the heading of a browse column.
A dialog like the below captured screen will be displayed, allowing the user to select
a filter for the browse based on an entered value.

The programmer can create a custom GetFilter() method by overloading the method
in a custom class. In this example the custom class is LostAndFoundFiltered.

A dialog like the below captured screen will be displayed, allowing the user to select
a filter for the browse based on a drop-down list.

Sample code:

Code: Select all

DCBROWSECOL HEADER "Amount..." ;
    OBJECTVAR {|o| o:total } WIDTH 5 PARENT oBrowse PROTECT {||.t.} ;
    SUBCLASS 'DC_XbpColumnFiltered()' ;
    TOOLTIP "Fare Amount";
    SORT {|| ASort(aDtrRecs,,,{|a,b| Alltrim(Str(a:total)) < Alltrim(Str(b:total)) })}

DCBROWSECOL HEADER "Card#..." ;
    OBJECTVAR {|o| Pad(SubStr(Alltrim(o:cardnum),-4),4) } WIDTH 4 PARENT oBrowse PROTECT {||.t.} ;
    SUBCLASS 'LostAndFoundFiltered()' ;
    TOOLTIP "Last Four Digits Of Credit Card Number";
    SORT {|| ASort(aDtrRecs,,,{|a,b| a:last4 < b:last4 })}

DCBROWSECOL HEADER "Card Type..." ;
    OBJECTVAR {|o| o:cardtype} WIDTH 6 PARENT oBrowse PROTECT {||.t.} ;
    SUBCLASS 'LostAndFoundFiltered()' ;
    TOOLTIP "credit Card Type";
    SORT {|| ASort(aDtrRecs,,,{|a,b| a:cardtype < b:cardtype })}
