Question
Updating value of a property from using java/edit validate
Hi,
Is anybody aware of setting a property value using java code inside edit validate rule.
suppose I am evaluating a property value in java code block and the property value gets changed according to the logic.
I want to update the "theValue" with a new value and update my clipboard as well.
E.g:
before executing edit validate: theValue="test"
inside edit validate theValue is getting changed to "valuechanged"
theValue ="valuechanged"
but the new value is not reflecting in clipboard
What should be the piece of code to set the value in clipboard page.
Accepted Solution
Hi,
By using below piece of code in Edit validate. we can set a value to property.
ClipboardPage stepPage = tools.findPage("pagename");
stepPage.getProperty("PropertyName").setValue("NewValue");
Thanks
You can't set a value of a property in an edit-validate rule. You can do it in an edit-input rule. Edit-input runs before edit-validate ensure that the correct value is validated.
