Changes an object to be displayed in a certain section of a layout dynamically, with a high degree of parametrization when using a Dynamic Component Creation

All you have to do is to insert a Component Control in any Object and assign the result of the execution of the CreateFromURL function to the control object property.

Syntax

Control.Object = CreateFromURL(URL)

Where:

URL
     
It is a string variable (as VarChar data type) containing the object and parameters.

Web: Check the GeneXus Work With Pattern which uses this feature to create the TabbedView Web Component.

Scope

Objects: Procedure, Transaction, Web Panel, Panel, Data Provider
Generators: .NET, .NET Framework, Java, Apple, Android, Angular

Sample for Web

In this example there is a Web Form containing a Web Component called Component, whose purpose is to load the links recently accessed by the user. They are dynamically loaded, meaning, for example, that they are loaded every time that the Web Panel object is Refreshed.

Event Refresh
    For &Index = &FirstTab To &LastTab
        Do 'LoadItem'
    EndFor
EndEvent

Sub 'LoadItem'
    &WebComponentUrl = &Tab.WebComponent
     Component.Object = CreateFromURL(&WebComponentUrl)
EndSub

The variable &WebComponentURL is Character(1000).

The &Tab variable is based on  the TabOptions SDT  whose structure is as follows:

TabOptions SDT

Sample for Smart Devices

Event Start
   &Url = MyPanel.Link(&parm1)
   Component1.Object = CreateFromURL(&Url)
EndEvent

Availability

CreateFromURL function is available also in Smart Devices since GeneXus 15 upgrade 12.
