I have a URL in a controller like this:
<request-map uri="createGenericProductNumber">
<security https="true" auth="true"/>
<event type="service" invoke="createGenericProductNumber"/>
<response name="success" type="view"
value="generatePartNumberForm"/>
<response name="error" type="view" value="generatePartNumberForm"/>
</request-map>
The service is declared like this:
<service name="createGenericProductNumber" engine="java" auth="true"
default-entity-name=""
location="com.fs.inventory.GenerateInventoryPartNumbers"
invoke="createGenericProductNumber"
use-transaction="true" validate="false" >
<description>
Create an endmill product id from the required inputs
</description>
<attribute name="kindId" type="String" mode="INOUT"
optional="false"/>
<attribute name="tableName" type="String" mode="IN"
optional="false"/>
<attribute name="encodeIdString" type="String" mode="IN"
optional="false"/>
<attribute name="partNumber" type="String" mode="OUT"
optional="false"/>
<attribute name="description" type="String" mode="OUT"
optional="true"/>
<attribute name="longDesc" type="String" mode="OUT"
optional="true"/>
</service>
Note the "validate=false". This url is called from a screen that has lots
of parameters not declared in service above like width, length, etc. None
of these parameters are being passed to the createGenericProductNumber
service in its context.
I rewrote the the url like this:
<request-map uri="createGenericProductNumber">
<security https="true" auth="true"/>
<event type="java" path="com.fs.inventory.InventoryEvents"
invoke="createGenericProductNumber"/>
<response name="success" type="view"
value="generatePartNumberForm"/>
<response name="error" type="view" value="generatePartNumberForm"/>
</request-map>
In this case, all the parameters from the page are in the parameter map of
the HttpServletRequest.
Is there any way I can get the service engine to pass all the parameters
from request in the context to the service and not just those in the service
declaration?
Thanks in Advance
