Method Detail

mandatoriesFromFtx

public static java.util.Set<FormElementPath> mandatoriesFromFtx(FormContextI ftx)

same as this#mandatoryFromFtxNonRecursive(FormContextI) but it recurses into sub contexts of the provided ftx, even testing previously shown and modified BOs for mandatories if necessary.

Parameters:

ftx -

Returns:

mandatoryFromFtxNonRecursive

public static FormElementPath mandatoryFromFtxNonRecursive(FormContextI ftx)

Generates a "FormElementPath" for a mandatory input field, if applicable.

This method checks if the given "FormContextI" represents a mandatory input field within the form. If it does, and all Business Objects (BOs) along the path defined by the form element's display property are not deleted, it returns a "FormElementPath" representing the path to this field. Otherwise, it returns "null".

This check ensures that mandatory attributes are only enforced for valid and accessible BOs, preventing issues where a mandatory field might be incorrectly displayed for a deleted or unreachable BO.

Parameters:

ftx - The "FormContextI" to check.

Returns:

A "FormElementPath" for the mandatory input field, or "null" if the field is not mandatory or a deleted BO is found on the path.
