Define parameters
Parameters can be defined in many different places, information on which can be found here.
The dialog in which parameters can be created and edited has essentially the same structure.
Every parameter, fallback value and semantic value that has already been defined is shown on the left. If a parameter has fallback or semantic values, these are displayed indented below the parameter. When creating a fallback or semantic value, select the respective parameter that it should be created for. The details of the parameter, fallback or semantic value, which has been selected on the left, are shown on the right side of the dialog.
New
Opens a submenu where you can select whether a parameter, fallback value or semantic value should be created.
Delete
Deletes the selected parameter, fallback value or semantic value from the list. Parameters that the target page requires cannot be deleted. User-defined parameters can be deleted.
Move up / down
Adjusts the order of the parameters, fallback values or semantic values.
Define parameters for application pages
If you access this dialog from an input or view page, this is where you define what information the input or view page needs in order to display the data in full. Any number of fallback and semantic values can be defined for pages. Please also refer to our general information on this topic.
Name
Enter the parameter name here. This needs to be unique within a page.
When using the parameter names in Intrexx, e.g. in scripts, the upper/lower case must be observed. If the parameter is called LID, for example, it must always be written as "LID".
Data type
Select the desired data type here.
Required
With this setting, the page is not displayed if the parameter is not found when loading.
Parameter is only used for new / existing data records
Here you can define whether the parameter is desired only for new, only for existing data records or always.
Value may be transferred via request
Allows the value to be provided in the request.
Description
You can provide the parameter with a description here.
Transfer parameters
From "callers", such as a button, the parameters required by the target pages are created here. Any number of fallback values can be created. Semantic values can only be created for application pages. Please also refer to our general information on this topic.
Name
Enter the parameter name here. Parameter names need to be unique for each call – in this example a button.
Request name
Enter the name that the parameter should be available under in the request.
Fallback value
Any number of fallback values can be created or defined for each parameter. All information on the settings for fallback values can be found here.
Semantic value
Any number of semantic values can be defined here for input and view pages and the portlet container. Enter the name of the value here.
