Class ExtendedAttributeDefinition



  • public class ExtendedAttributeDefinition
    extends Object

    Represents an extended attribute definition associated with a project.

    • Method Detail

      • addLookupValue

        public final void addLookupValue(Value value)

        Adds a value to the internal lookup list. This is a preferable way for manipulations with the ValueList(getValueList()/#setValueList(List)).


         Use this code to add new Value to lookup list:
         
         taskTextAttr.AddLookupValue(new Value { Id = 1, Val = "Text value 1", Description = "Text value description 1" });
         
        Parameters:
        value - Value to add into lookup.


        This method works only for ExtendedAttributeDefinition instances which have CalculationType(getCalculationType()/setCalculationType(int)) equals to CalculationType.Lookup.
