I am trying to change the Tag binding for a numeric label’s property ‘Mouseover Text’ from Tagname.toolTipText to Tagname.LastUpdated. I am able to retrieve the value of the property adapter for this component’s property, and I am able to clear the property adapter, but I can’t figure out how to set it. How do you instantiate the ‘pa’ in the setPropertyAdapter method ‘setPropertyAdapter(java.awt.Component c, java.lang.String propName, PropertyAdapter pa)’. A specific code example would be appreciated. I have reviewed the SDK and can’t figure this one out.
Thanks!
Here is the code snipet I have so far:
#get property adapter
w = system.gui.getWindow(‘Main Windows/WQYork’)
c = w.getRootContainer().getComponent(‘nlbl_WP_Curr’)
pa = w.interactionController.getPropertyAdapter(c,‘toolTipText’)
print pa
returns York/PH_CURR_WP.Tooltip --> nlbl_WP_Curr.toolTipText
#remove the property adapter (must be removed before setting one?)
w.interactionController.removePropertyAdapter(c, ‘toolTipText’)
pa = w.interactionController.getPropertyAdapter(c,‘toolTipText’)
print pa
returns None
#set property adapter for component ‘Mouseover Text’ property
pa = ‘York/PH_CURR_WP.LastChange --> nlbl_WP_Curr.toolTipText’ # this is what I want the Tag binding to be
w.interactionController.setPropertyAdapter(c,‘toolTipText’,pa)
pa = w.interactionController.getPropertyAdapter(c,‘toolTipText’)
print pa
Returns Traceback (most recent call last):
