I have figured out a way around this, but I'm confused about why I
need to do this. I think I am not understanding how WOPopups are
supposed to work or am just confused about what the bindings mean.
What I ended up doing was using the selection binding and not the
selectedValue binding. All I really needed was to get the string that
displayed on the popup into a variable. So even though WO didn't
complain when I used selectedValue, it always gave me null.
I changed my binding to selection and then got an error message that
pointed me in the right direction. What WO wanted to do was give me
an object back from the popup. I kind of knew that was what selection
was for and was why I wanted to use the selectedValue in the first
place. I decided not to fight with it and took the object, pulled out
the displayString from it and put it into the variable I was trying
to bind in the first place.
Sorry, but I don't understand what kind of object did you bind to the item binding. Was a
java.util.Iterator instance?
Is there an easier way to do this, or is this just what WO does so it
can handle a more generic case based on objects?
Regards,
Kevin
