Get DataType of Attribute in View Object Programatically

Hi All,

In this post I am going to show you how you can get the datatype of the attribute i view object programatically.

Suppose you have a view object with name "DepartmentVO" and you want to find out what is the datatype of the attribute "DepartmentId" programatically.

To get Datatype you can use the following code.

DCBindingContainer dcBindings = 
(DCBindingContainer)BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
            DCIteratorBinding iterBind= (DCIteratorBinding)dcBindings.get("DepartmentVO1Iterator");
            ViewObject vo=iterBind.getViewObject();
            AttributeDefImpl attrDef = (AttributeDefImpl)vo.findAttributeDef("DepartmentId");
            String datatype=attrDef.getJavaType().getName();
            System.out.println("Datatype=============>"+datatype);

This will give you datatype like java.lang.String, oracle.jbo.domain.Number etc.

Happy Coding :)
