Ben,
I looked around for quite a while for a 'simple' way to do this (like add some
sort of parameter to the query) that would directly to what the <form> method
does. However I was not able to find anything and time is at a prime in my
current project. The only solution I could find (and the one I am currently
using) as to add a destination parameter as in:
<a href="$jslink.Template.addQuery('destination','doSearch')">Search</a>
I am using Velocity instead of JSP (don't know how it's done in JSP), but you
should get the general idea.
Afterwards, in my Action, in the buildNormalContext() I run a test like:
protected void buildNormalContext(VelocityPortlet portlet, Context context,
RunData rundata) throws Exception {
[...]
if (destination !=null)
{
if (destination.equals("doSearch"))
doSearch();
else if (destination.equals("doUpdate"))
doUpdate();
}
[...]
private void Search(RunData rundata, Context context)
throws Exception {
[...]
Hope this helps. If you find out a better way to do this (like in the <form>)
please let me know!
Regards
Ruy
