Hello Hans-Rudolf,
Do you know if the 'dynamic_options' attribute also works for control elements
other then select menu's?
For example I want to present the user a set of checkboxes that correspond to
column names from a file, could I use something like a loop that either
iterates on data received from the 'dynamics_option' function or from a meta
attribute?
To get a bit further off topic, I made a new tabular datatype that has a
meta-attribute for storing column names, but I can't use them in my XML files..
Any ideas would be welcome!
Regards,
Marcel

Leandro
we use the "dynamic_options" attribute, eg:
<inputs>
<param name="foo" type="select" label="what"
help="Use tickboxes to select "
display="radio"
dynamic_options="ds_fooOptions()"/>
</inputs>
<outputs>
<data format="fasta" name="output" label="more foo" />
</outputs>
<code file="extra_code_for_foo_list.py" />
<help>
</help>
</tool>
and then we have a little python script ("extra_code_for_foo_list.py")
with the "ds_fooOptions" function, eg
def ds_fooOptions():
"""List available foos as tuples of (displayName,value)"""
foos = <whatever python code is required to generate the tuples
return foos
I hope this helps, Hans
