| printName |
|
|
|
The print name of the view. Used in the www interface.
If there is no print name then the view name is used.
This can be handy for giving the view a longer, more
meaningful name and also for presenting similar, but
different views for different databases with the same name.
|
| format |
  table |
|
|
 table list |
|
|
The view can either be of table or list type. If the
view is a table
the table headers in a web page are the names of the
$LoadAttr's in the associated object loader.

|
|
If more than 30 (or the number of entries to show) then
a list of chunks to go to is shown at the bottom of the
www page. Some views dont want those chunks (certainly in
the case of some graphical views).
|
| sideBarInfo |
|
|
|
side top none customiseSide customiseTop |
|
|
The side bar info contains information and further action
submit buttons. Normally this is shown in the yellow
column on the side of the web page, but sometime we want it
on the top.

|
When building a view via the view manager on the SRS
web interface, one question is whether to only allow
users to select fields which are common to the databanks
selected as the "root" databanks of the view.
|
| objLoader |
LoadClass
|
|
|
The loader which the view uses to load the appropriate data
from the token tables. Since this is of type path, the
specification of the loader currently must take the form
$SRSDB.loader_variable_name.
|
| layout |
 |
|
|
Instead of, or as well as, automatically generating the table
or list view from the object loader and loaded object, the
programmer can insert an icarus script which will be executed
when this view is called. The script must be in "DO" form,
i.e. layout:@{ icarus script }. A useful way to allow
for large scripts is to put the script in a seperate file
(e.g. swissentry.il) and define layout as
layout:@{ $FileDo:["SRSDB:swissentry.il" shareNames:y]}. The set resulting
from the script and the loaded object are available in the
variables $set and $entries respectively for use in the
icarus script.

If there is a layout script and the programmer does not wish to
print out the automatically generated table or view then set
this to 0.
