Q

Why is using a callback function with the getReference() method so important within the context of the GlideForm API?

A

If a callback function is not present, the routine runs synchronously and processing halts (causing the browser to appear to hang) while waiting on a server response.
If a callback function is present, the routine runs asynchronously. The browser (and script) processing continues normally until the server returns the reference value, at which time, the callback function is invoked.

Q

What is something important to remember about using the setValue() method in OnChange client scripts within the context of the GlideForm API?

A

The setValue() method can cause a stack overflow when used in an OnChange client script. This is because every time the value is set, it will register as a change, which may re-trigger the OnChange client script. To prevent this, perform a check that will validate that the new value will be different from the old value.d

Q

What does the showFieldMsg() method do within the context of the GlideForm API?

A

Displays either an informational or error message under the specified form field (either a control object or the name or the field.) If the control or field is off the screen, the form is scrolled to the field.
A global property (glide.ui.scroll_to_message_field) is available that controls automatic message scrolling when the form field is off screen (scrolls the form to the control or field)

Q

What does the setReadOnly() method do within the context of the GlideForm API?

A

Makes the specified field read-only or editable.
Whenever possible, use a UI policy instead of this method.
To make a mandatory field read-only, you cannot use the setValue() method to update the value of that field. If you need to set the value in this way, you must set the readOnly value to false.

———————————————————————

110
Q

What does the setValue() method do within the context of the GlideForm API?

A

Sets the value of a specified form field to the passed in value.
This method also supports setting values in multi-row variable sets (MRVS). You must first use JSON.parse(getValue(‘<mrvs_field_name>’)) to obtain the MRVS array and then use indexing to update the fields within the row objects. Once all values are updates in the MRVS, use the setValue() method to save the update MRVS array.</mrvs_field_name>

Note: The method setValue() can cause a stack overflow when used in an OnChange client script. This is because every time the value is set, it will register as a change, which may re-trigger the OnChange client script. To prevent this, perform a check that will validate that the new value will be different from the old value. For example, before performing setValue(shortDesc, newValue.toUpperCase());, validate that the short description is not already uppercase. This will prevent the client script from applying the toUpperCase() more than once.
