Thanks for the help.
Below is the test code that I am using:
class Employee {
public String lastName;
public String firstName;
}
Employee employeeIn = new Employee();
employeeIn.lastName = "Doe";
employeeIn.firstName = "John";
EOQualifier myQualifier;
NSMutableArray args = new NSMutableArray();
args.addObject(employeeIn.lastName);
myQualifier =
EOQualifier.qualifierWithQualifierFormat("lastName =
$_lastName", args);
System.out.println("qualifierKeys=
"+myQualifier.allQualifierKeys());
String employeeOut;
System.out.println("bindingKeys=
"+myQualifier.bindingKeys());
NSArray bindKeys = myQualifier.bindingKeys();
employeeOut = bindKeys.lastObject().toString();
System.out.println("lastObject= "+employeeOut);
Here is the output I get at runtime:
qualifierKeys= ("lastName")
bindingKeys= ("_lastName")
lastObject= _lastName
If I change the binding key from $_lastName to %@ I
get a runtime exception (nullpointerexception) when
displaying the component.
Here is that output:
qualifierKeys= ("lastName")
bindingKeys= ()
Thanks for all your help.
