Step 1. Create a new WAM
WAM070 - Hiding Techniques
1. Create a new WAM:
Name: iiiHideTech
Description: Hiding Techniques
Layout Weblet: iiilay01
2. In this step, you will add the RDMLX code to demonstrate different hiding techniques.
Use the DEFINE command to define the following work fields.
Field |
Type |
Length |
Default Value |
CLASSHIDE |
*char |
10 |
*blanks |
HIDEIF |
*char |
10 |
*blanks |
XSLIF |
*char |
10 |
*blanks |
3. Create a WebRoutine named HideMain with a description of 'Hiding Techniques'.
WebRoutine Name(HideMain) Desc('Hiding Techniques')
Endroutine
4. Add a WEB_MAP for *both. Include the fields you have just created as well as STDRENTRY. Define all as hidden fields as follows:
Web_Map For(*BOTH) Fields((#CLASSHIDE *HIDDEN) (#HIDEIF *HIDDEN) (#XSLIF *HIDDEN) (#STDRENTRY *HIDDEN))
5. Add a CASE loop based on STDRENTRY for three different values A, B and C.
Note: Classes are case sensitive (#CLASSHIDE := 'hidden'). 'hidden' must be lower case.
Your code should look like the following:
Case Of_Field(#STDRENTRY)
When Value_Is(= A)
If Cond(#CLASSHIDE = *BLANKS)
#CLASSHIDE := 'hidden'
Else
#CLASSHIDE := *BLANKS
Endif
When Value_Is(= B)
If Cond(#HIDEIF = *BLANKS)
#HIDEIF := 'HIDE'
Else
#HIDEIF := *BLANKS
Endif
When Value_Is(= C)
If Cond(#XSLIF = *BLANKS)
#XSLIF := 'HIDE'
Else
#XSLIF := *BLANKS
Endif
Endcase
