Method Detail

selectAndReveal

public static boolean selectAndReveal(SystemView rsView,
                                      IBMiConnection conn400,
                                      String absNameOfObjectToReveal)

Static helper method to show a given iSeries native file system object, in the given Remote Systems view instance.

This flavour takes an absolute object name.

This reveals and selects the given object. The trick is what filter to use. For this, we look for a filter with the default filter name for the object's library. If found, we expand it enough to reveal, and select, the given object. If not found, we create it.

Returns:

true if object found and revealed. False if this object is not something we can find. Eg, if given a message object (vs description) we can't really find it in the file system, so we return null.

selectAndReveal

public static boolean selectAndReveal(SystemView rsView,
                                      IBMiConnection conn400,
                                      String absNameOfObjectToReveal,
                                      boolean useAppropriateFilter,
                                      IQSYSViewHelperStatusHandler statusHandler)

Static helper method to show a given iSeries native file system object, in the given Remote Systems view instance.

This flavour takes an absolute object name, and uses a type-specific filter versus just a library filter.

This reveals and selects the given object.For libraries, we use a library filter with the default lib name, for objects, we use an object filter scoped to the object type, incorporating that into the name. For records and fields we also use a file object filter and then expand the appropriate file as needed. For members, we use a member filter for the given parent.

Returns:

true if object found and revealed. False if this object is not something we can find. Eg, if given a message object (vs description) we can't really find it in the file system, so we return null. Notice: this method is only used by business partner for now.

selectAndReveal

public static boolean selectAndReveal(SystemView rsView,
                                      IBMiConnection conn400,
