As is the custom, Chuck is right here. Since queryMatch is of type NSMutableDictionary, it doesn't have a field named agent_person that the compiler can decode. Enter key-value coding, the typecasting nightmare, but quick and dirty coding dream. agentDisplayGroup.queryMatch.takeValueForKeyPath("Agent Name", "agent_person.surname"); should do the trick. If there is still an error with your key path, you will get a run time error.

Hello;
The code was created by Web objects by using Add | New File from the popup (right click menu) then selecting new display group component. I have tried to access agentDisplayGroup from within constructor, appendtoresult, an custom public functions.

    public agentDisplay(WOContext context) {

public void appendToResponse(WOResponse response, WOContext context) {

this.agentDisplayGroup.queryMatch.agent_person.surname = "Agent Name"; //results in cannot resolve symbol



"Cannot resolve symbol" is a compiler error. It means that you typed something wrong. In this case, the wrong thing is
this.agentDisplayGroup.queryMatch
queryMatch is a method (or function) that returns a NSMutableDictionary value, not an instance variable. As such, you refer to it as
this.agentDisplayGroup.queryMatch()


That will leave you with another error at .agent_person as this is not an instance variable (or a method) on NSMutableDictionary.

Beyond that I am not sure if you want to update agentDisplayGroup.queryMatch(), or call setQualifier(), or something else entirely. But it does look like you are doing more work that what should be needed.

this.agentDisplayGroup.queryMatch.agent_weapons.serial = "Serial"; // results in cannot resolve symbol
super.appendToResponse(response,context);
WXDebug.println(25,"**appendToResponse(): Done");
}
}

Don,

Hi. Can you share some of the code? Normally there would be no reason you shouldn't be able to access it.
