Hi ExB Gurus
Hoping someone can help me with this issue.
I have a Feature Layer that holds hierarchical data, the features have an ID field and a parentID field, so a feature can hold a reference to a parent feature in the hierarchy. I want the user to be able to select and view a feature from the map and show its parent and child related features in a table widget.
I have created 3 dataviews from a FeatureLayerDataSource
1. Current Feature - I have a custom widget that selects a feature and filters this dataview to just the selected feature. The custom widget also creates an output dataSource.
2. Parent Related Feature - I have created a message action on the custom widget to filter this view at the framework based on a selection trigger using the widgets output dataSource, the Trigger/action Connection is set to parentID (trigger) = ID (action)
3. Child Related Features - I have created a message action on the custom widget to filter this view at the framework based on a selection trigger using the widgets output dataSource, the Trigger/action Connection is set to ID(trigger) = parentID
I have also added a table widget with 3 tables, one for each dataview.
When I test this configuration, the Current Feature table shows the currently selected feature (all good so far).
If the current feature has a value in parentID, I expect the Parent Related Feature table, but instead I see the current feature (in fact I see this record in tables 2 and 3)
If I select the feature with the parentID and look at table 3, I see the child feature, but I also see the same record in table 2.
Why are the dataViews not populating as expected? Do I need to create a separate dataSource (pointing to the same service/feature layer) for each dataView? Is this a bug or something in my configuration?
Thanks
Mark
