How to open a rule from ListView?
Hi everyone!
I'm trying to open readonly preview of an instance of a class by doubleclick on a row of a ListView report, however it shows me an XML markup instead of section I want, which makes me really upset.
On ListView rule Format tab I put a "ListViewSelectorScript" as a Fragment for script functions and call "doOpenRule" for double click event. In my class there is a section RuleFormLayout, which, as far as I understood, should be called by WBOpen activity from @baseclass, but the result is that only new tab with XML of the selected instance opens.
I would really appreciate any suggestions on where I'm making a mistake or some links to resources, as I've managed to find very little information concerning this question.
Thanks in advance!

Yahor,
One caveat, I have tried this out on a newer version than 6.2. But in taking a random sample of list views where the rule instance is opening without any issues, they all share the same consistent configuration that you may want to try as a starting point:
In the Double-click event on the Format tab:
Target Frame = DETAILS
On load event call script function = doOnLoad
Fragment for script functions = ListViewSelectorScript
Beyond that, this really isn't my area of expertise, so somebody else would have to pitch in. What I can tell you is that I randomly picked 5 list views, all 5 open the rule form without a problem, and all 5 share the configuration above.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Hi, Brendan,
Unfortunately, this did not solve the problem. Interesting thing though that function doOnload in the ListViewSelector.js from Pega-Reporting : 06-02-01, which is referenced by ListViewSelectorScript, is present but single line of code inside it is commented... So, it does nothing (with uncommented code as well).
Anyway, thanks a lot for your investigation! I'll continue searching, and maybe someone, who have faced similar problem, will reply.

Hi Yahor,
Would it help if you can open class as a link on "Class Name" instead of double click on row.
If Yes, Can you try using "pzLPClassMappingsClassDisplay" in Format column in List view first tab for class name and see if it works.
Let me know if this helps.

Hi
Have you considered using ( or reusing ) the out of the box available listview : RulesByName under Data-Rule-Summary class in Pega-WB Ruleset ?
This listview opens up the list of rules and you can drill down the result and open the rules without any issues .
The activity which plays the key role here is @baseclass- Show which in turn calls an HTML rule ShowFields which opens up a window with OPEN and HISTORY button.
Now coming to the point of displaying " readonly preview of an instance of a class " I am not clear about your exact requirement, Is it like you want to disable checkin , checkout and save as of the rule and just show the rule form with details ?
