childNodes​

Type: ChildNodes

documentation​

Type: String

Contains the documentation of the data model in the popular AsciiDoc format (.adoc). The documentation should be set by the developer to explain different aspects (like purpose, concept, etc.) of the data model that they designed.

You may want to add the extension "AsciiDoc" to your ADITO Designer in order to modify AsciiDoc files.

<!--VSCODE_ONLY-->

icon​

Type: String

Image.

Depending on the datamodel, this has different effects:

  • Entity: used as symbol in the designer. Do not confuse this property with the iconId property
  • Context: used as symbol in the designer. If the contexts entity has an icon set, the entities icon is used
  • System, Language, Role, Application: icon that appears only in the designer.
  • Template: Same effect as on the respective component
  • Alias, User: no effect
  • Frame, Process, Report, NeonFrame: icon that appears in the designer and in the client for the frame.

<!--EOF-->

You can add a custom icon by placing an icon.png file in the folder of your data model.

iconProcess​

Type: String

Specifies the icon dynamically. If the icon has no effect, neither will the result of the process.

Depending on the datamodel, the result of the process has to be different:

  • When you can specify an icon-avatar-text (e.g. VAADIN:USERS): You've to return the icon-avatar.text with result.string(...)

  • When you can specify an image in the icon: This is returned as a string with the ID of the image in the ASYS_BINARIES via result.string().

Error messages from this process do not arrive at the client, they are only visible in the server log.
