This section describes new features supported on the Blackberry client with EBF #13973:
CGI input parameters
Non-spidered drop-down application
Linked applications from a List View to a CGI input application
Display update application names on top of edit menus
On the BlackBerry client, you can now enter values into the
CGI input parameters and click OK, and retrieve new data pertaining
to the new values. For example, you can enter view entries for dept_id 100,
then request entries for dept_id 300.
Previously, you could do this only in Mobile Web Studio.
On the BlackBerry client, CGI parameters that are drop-down selection types now display only the available defaults. Previously, if an application contained drop-down selection types, the server looked through (or spidered through) all possible data pertaining to the drop-down values, and sent the data to the BlackBerry client.
On the BlackBerry client, you can now link applications from a List View to a CGI input application, and pass in the selected row values from one application to another.
In Mobile Web Studio, in the Properties Editor on the Mobile tab, a new Action type, Linked, is added to the Action Type drop-down list. When Link is selected for the current application, and you select a target application, this tells the BlackBerry client to link the applications and update the information on the BlackBerry device.
On the BlackBerry device, you can select the linked application from the trackwheel menu, and display its values.
When a BlackBerry client is customized, the custom menu names override the menus in the BlackBerry client. Previously, if an application was updated, the update application name defined in Mobile Web Studio was not getting displayed on the BlackBerry client. The update display name is defined in the Properties Editor on the Mobile tab.
