Supported AEF DSL Callbacks
The previous appendix touched on the callbacks used when
developing DSL dialog panels for use with Tivoli SecureWay
User Administration. This appendix describes, in detail, all of the
callbacks supported along with examples.
Overview of AEF Callbacks
Almost any gadget's behavior can be modified in a DSL dialog to
handle most situations including, but not limited to, gadget
interdependencies, default values and data validity checks.
This behavior is modified using DSL callbacks in conjunction
with the "changed" and "commands" gadget directives. The
callbacks supported are dependent on code implementation of the
GUI. In the case of Tivoli SecureWay User Administration, there
are a large number of callbacks supported from the simple to the
complex.
In order to accomplish complex actions with a gadget, callbacks
can be "chained" together. For example, one gadget, when changed,
could clear the contents of another gadget then change the value
in a third. This is accomplished by seperating each callback with a
comma, and ending the chain with a semicolon. There will be
examples later in this appendix.
