JR46677: DYNAMIC COACH VIEWS IN V8.0.1 (NEW COACHES) DOES NOT WORK FOR TABLES.

Version 8.5.0 Fix Pack 1 for the IBM Business Process Manager products

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• The idea is that selected table content will be picked up at
  runtime and displayed in another field within same coach. How it
  should work is described in detail in following Infocenter
  section
  
  "If you drop a listSelected variable onto the layout, Process
  Designer adds the Coach View that is associated with the data
  type of the variable. At run time, the Coach View contains the
  data for the selected item in the list. For example, you have a
  Select control that is bound to listBO[] and an Output Text
  control that is bound to listBO.listSelected.myItem. At run
  time, the user selects the third item in the Select control. The
  Output Text control displays the third myItem string."
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• When a coach view is bound to the listSelected property of a
  list (and the list contains complex types), the view does not
  get updated when the selected item of the list is changed.  This
  prevents dynamic list selections from updating these views.
  
  USER AFFECTED:
  Business Process Manager Advanced, Standard and Express New
  Generation Coach end users.
  
  PROBLEM DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
  The problem is that when a view is bound to a property of the
  listSelected item, there is no trigger to update this view
  whenever the listSelected property is changed.  Since
  listSelected is a dynamic pointer that changes at runtime, the
  initial binding logic is not applicable.
  
  PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
  This APAR fix will trigger a refresh on all views that are bound
  to listSelected whenever this property of the list changes.
  
  FIX AVAILABILITY:
  Fix for 8.0.1 is planned for the next cumulative mainteance
  deliverable for 8.0.1.
  
  Fix for 8.5 is planned for the next cumulative mainteance
  deliverable for 8.5.
