Usually in Dialog Forms it's unable to set mandatory property for Dialog Fields. The lack of this property
sometimes annoyed me. At the end I've decided to eliminate this gap :-)
To expand the standard functionality you need to do the following steps:
1.Add mandatory() method into DialogField class:
void mandatory(boolean r)
{
str name;
// If properties exists then we are on server
if (properties)
{
name = #Propertymandatory;
if (! properties.exists(name))
properties.add(name,true);
properties.value(name,r);
}
else
this.fieldControl().mandatory(r);
}
2. Add into unpack() method following lines:
case #PropertyMandatory:
this.mandatory(unpackedProperties.valueIndex(i));
break;
Now you may enjoy mandatory property in Dialog Forms.
This trick published in
Axaptapedia too.
