Scripting UI Lib example

RE: Scripting UI Lib example

HI Dennis, 

Here's an interesting example that showcase samples are not production ready...

In the ScriptUIDataHandler, the code to get batch tasks is doesn't take into account an associateID.

BatchTaskInfo[] btis = ba.GetBatchTaskInfosByNameAndState(
    ScriptingUILib.BatchTasks.ScriptsBatchTaskPlugin.Name,
    SuperOffice.Data.BatchTaskState.Unknown);

You have a couple options....

Change that to use GetBatchTaskInfosByNameAndAssociates, but then you will need to check the BatchTaskState and only add ones that are Unknown.

BatchTaskInfo[] btis = ba.GetBatchTaskInfosByNameAndAssociates(
    ScriptingUILib.BatchTasks.ScriptsBatchTaskPlugin.Name,
    new int[] { SuperOffice.SoContext.CurrentPrincipal.AssociateId });

Alternatively, use the GetBatchTaskInfosByAssociatesAndState and only add the ones where the name equals the ScriptsBatchTaskPlugin.Name.

BatchTaskInfo[] btis = ba.GetBatchTaskInfosByAssociatesAndState(
    new int[] { SuperOffice.SoContext.CurrentPrincipal.AssociateId },
    SuperOffice.Data.BatchTaskState.Unknown);

Hope this helps!

Hi Tony, that really helped me out, there's a nother strange thing though that i experience, and that is the background task spinner not disappearing after the task is over:

It does not seem to have impact on performance, or the job it actually performed - it just takes a looooong time to disappear. 

Any ideas?

RE: Scripting UI Lib example

I'm still having this problem with the spinner sitting there forever - so does anybody have a clue?

Until now, the only thing i was able to do was to clear the batchtask table manually...

Hi Dennis,

Have you set the RunTasksInProcess to True?

Best regards.
