Now that the subject is on object remapping with Zpatterns. I'm not getting anywhere mapping between objects.
I have a product folder
EmployZ-Folder
EmployZManager-Specialist
WhoZ-Specialist
Data Plug-ins
myssMethod
EmployZ-Zclass
The EmployZManager just keeps a database of employee name, ID and salary.
The WhoZ specialist keeps track of employee status like an in/out board.
The Zclass for it is in another product.
I'm trying to get the employee name from EmployZManagerto display in my WhoZ specialist.
So I placed this skinscript in my WhoZ specialist data plugin tab.
btw description and name is a WhoZ dataskin property
myssMethod
INITIALIZE OBJECT WITH original_object=EmployZManager.newItem(self.id)
WITH EmployZManager.getItem(self.id) COMPUTE original_object=RESULT
WITH self.original_object COMPUTE name=emp_id, description=first
WHEN OBJECT ADDED,CHANGED STORE name, first USING
self.original_object.manage_changeProperties(
emp_id=self.name, first=self.description)
WHEN OBJECT DELETED CALL self.original_object.manage_delete()
Thanks
