Enhanced-Search-Widget-for-FlexViewer Part II

[RobertScheitlin__GISP]

All,

   I am pleased to announce the next release of my eSearch Widget.

http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=5d4995ccdb99429185dfd8d8fb2a513e

Version 2.5.1.7 - 4/19/2012
* Added ability to search (flat/standalone/no geometry) tables.
* This time all Zooming uses the same scaling (popup, datagrid, widget results, zoom to all).
* Added Relates icon/button to datagrids so that you can click on it in the datagrid to
  open relates choice dialog.
* Move all skins to a skins package for cleaner organization.
* Links that are not associated with a field now work.
* Ability to disable the relates tab in the fixed widget is now configurable.

Ken,

   A handfull of people have asked about this but it is not my intent for the fixed datagrid and thus there is no hide ability programmed for it.

Slade,

   When you go to the REST Services directory for this Map Service layer is the coded domain listed?

Looking at one of the sample rest services on the arcgis sample server (the "Incidents" layer at http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/SanFrancisco/311Incidents/MapServer/0) there is field called "status" that shows how the coded values should look:

status (Type: esriFieldTypeSmallInteger, Alias: Status, Domain: Coded Values: [1: New], [2: Open], [3: Closed] )

However, any of the layers we have created that have coded values are missing the "Domain: Coded Values: ..." information in the field definitions.  Is there a checkbox hiding somewhere that we need to check to get this information included when the map service is created?

Thanks!

Bradford,

   No there is nothing special you should have to do. What version of ArcGIS Server are you using and what is the data source (FGDB, SDE)?

Robert,
we are using server 9.3.2 and using a SDE.

Slade,

   Do you mean 9.3.1? What service pack? I remember there being an issue with 9.3.1 and domains on ArcGIS Server (doesn't pay to not stay current).

Hi,

Is there any way to specify a field name for a "userlist"? I have a database with 5,000,000 entries that have with 10-15 unique "types". However, the types change every month or so and updating them every month would be a pain! I have been through the document a few times and just cant seem to find it. Am I just missing the syntax for it somewhere or is it not an option?

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide.

Great work by the way!

Matt,

   No there is no option for the userlist to come from a field. The userlist is only for manual entry of values. The values can come from a coded value domain in the Geodatabase though. But as you said if the values are changing regularly than that might not be an option either.

[MattSiple]

THANKS! I will look into the coded values option and see if it might work..

Again, thank you for all the work you have done.

We have a similar situation. What we do is maintain a mast list of the oded values in a spreadsheet, then we have a python script that runs once a week (or manually if needed) to update the domain.
