generateDynamicSourceBindings()

Availability

Adobe Dreamweaver UltraDev 1.

Description

This function returns the children of a top-level node.

Arguments

sourceName

• The sourceName argument is the name of the top-level node whose children you want to return.

Returns

Adobe Dreamweaver expects an array of JavaScript objects where each object can have as many as four properties, which are described in the following list:

• The title property is the label string that appears on the right of the icon for each parent node. This property is required.
• The allowDelete property is optional. If this property is set to the value false, when the user clicks this node in the Bindings panel, the Minus (-) button is disabled. If this property is set to the value true, the Minus (-) button is enabled. If the property is not defined, the default is the value true.
• The dataSource property is the simple name of the file in which the findDynamicSources() function is defined. For example, the findDynamicSources() function in the Session.htm file, which is located in the Configuration/DataSources/ASP_Js folder, sets the dataSource property to session.htm. This property is required.
• The name property is the name of the server behavior that is associated with the data source, if one exists. It is a required property. Some data sources, such as recordsets, are associated with server behaviors. When you create a recordset and name it rsAuthors, the name property must equal rsAuthors. Other data sources, such as session variables, do not have a corresponding server behavior. Their name property must be the empty string ("").

  NOTE

  A JavaScript class that defines these properties exists in the DataSourceClass.js file, which is located in the Configuration/Shared/Common/Scripts folder.
