TIWCGJQLockIndicator

[Futura]

Hi

I'm using TIWCGJQLockIndicator, but I can't create it in RunTime.

I'm trying to use only one for the entire system, so if i change the loading GIF, I don't have to change in all screens.

also, can I link it to any form property?

Att. Futura.

Hi Futura:

If in RunTime, you also mean in an ajax/async event, you cannot do it, only in full submit events (ajax = false) or OnCreate / OnRender.

You can use only one for entire system in the servercontroller, but since servercontroller isn't thread save, you can't modify it after the app started, because each event is a new thread, and the events can occurr at the same time for different sessions, you must not change ServerController.IWCGLockIndicator1 unless you use Critical Sections.

Because of performance, The name if the Indicator has to be IWCGJQLockIndicator1, to be quickly found.

I Mean create the component at codelines, instead of placing it on the Form.

i used it on Form OnCreate but doesn't work:


procedure TIWForm1.IWAppFormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
With TIWCGJQLockIndicator.Create(Self) do
begin
Indicators.Add;
AsyncIndicatorIndex := 0;
SubmitIndicatorIndex := 0;
end;
end;

Hi Futura,
You forgot to specify the component name.

Code: Select all

procedure TIWForm1.IWAppFormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  With TIWCGJQLockIndicator.Create(Self) do
  begin
    Name:= 'IWCGJQLockIndicator1'; // <- add this line
    Indicators.Add;
    AsyncIndicatorIndex := 0;
    SubmitIndicatorIndex := 0;
  end;
end;



This code

Code: Select all

IWCGJQLockIndicator.Indicators.Add

return you TIWCGJQLockIndicatorItem, so you can edit some properties.

Example:

Code: Select all

procedure TIWForm1.IWAppFormCreate(Sender: TObject);
var
  LItem: TIWCGJQLockIndicatorItem;
begin
  With TIWCGJQLockIndicator.Create(Self) do
  begin
    Name:= 'IWCGJQLockIndicator1';
    LItem:= Indicators.Add;
    LItem.ImageSetting.Image:= jqlidiLoading17;
    LItem.ImageSetting.Alignment:= jqliiaTop;
    AsyncIndicatorIndex := 0;
    SubmitIndicatorIndex := 0;
  end;
end;


Best Regards.
