Passing Form to Form Args In Ax 2012(Args Concept)

Args Concept:

     Args class (Argument)

       "The Args class is used to pass arguments such as a name, a caller, and parameters between application objects"

       Args Types

Caller	Gets or sets the instance of the object that created this instance of the Args class.
name	Gets and sets the name of the application object to call.
parm	Gets or sets a string that specifies miscellaneous information for the called object.
parmEnum	Gets or sets the enumeration value of the enumeration type that is specified in the parmEnumType method.
parmEnmType	Gets or sets the ID value of any enumeration type.
ParmObject	Gets or sets an instance of any object to pass to the called object.
record	Gets and sets the record from the table on which the caller object is working.

Example to pass the args:

static void Sa_Args(Args _args)

{

 _args = new Args();

 _args.Parm(“ any string value”);             // used to pass strings values.

 _args.Record(Sa_productTable);               // used to pass tables.

 _args.ParmEnum ( NoYesEnumValue.selection()); // used to pass enumsType methods.

 _args.ParmEnumType( EnumNum( NoYes ) );      // Used to pass enum values. 

 _args.Name(FormStr(Sa_ArgsForm));            // Used to pass application objects

}

Student  student = new Student();

_args.ParmObject(student);                       // Used  to pass the instance of any objects.

 Passing Args From one Form To Another Form:

1.       First create two table.

Table1:

 

Table2:

 

2. Now create 2 forms

Form1:

Take form1 datasource as table1

 

Form2:

Take form2 datasource as table2

 

3. In form1 clicked method write the following code.

void clicked()

{

Args           args;

FormRun        formRun;

super();

args           = new Args();

args.record(Sa_Products);

args.parm (Sa_Products.Product_Id);

args.name(formstr(sv_childForm));

formRun        = ClassFactory.formRunClass(args);

formRun.init();

formRun.run();

formRun.wait();

}

4. In form2 override init method and write the following code.

public void init()

{

    Query                 query;

    QueryBuildRange       qbr;

    Sa_Products           sa_Products;

    str                   parmid;

    ;

    super();

    sa_Products           = element.args().record();

    parmid                = element.args().parm();

    query                 = new Query();

    qbr                   = query.addDataSource(tablenum(Sa_ProductDetails)).addRange(fieldnum(Sa_ProductDetails,Product_Id));

qbr.value(parmid);

Sa_ProductDetails_ds.query(query);

}

5.Output

 

Send Args From Form To Class:

1.        Create one table.

Table:

 

2.       Create a form drag the datasource as Sa_product table.

Form:

 

      In Clicked method write below code

Void clicked ()

{

     Args            args;

    MenuFunction    menuFunction;

    super();

    args = new Args();

    args.record(Sa_Products);

    args.parm(Sa_Products.Product_Id);

    menuFunction = new MenuFunction(identifierStr(Sa_ArgsClass), MenuItemType::Action);

    menuFunction.run(args);                                                                

    super();

}

3.       Create a classes for getting the args value. 

 

In main method write following code to get the values from form

4.       Output:
