For instance, for an ::com::sun::star::form::<a href="../component/module-ix.html">component</a>::<a href="../component/TextField.html">TextField</a>, this would be the ::com::sun::star::<a href="../../awt/module-ix.html">awt</a>::<a href="../../awt/UnoControlEditModel.html">UnoControlEditModel</a>::<a href="../../awt/UnoControlEditModel.html#Text">Text</a> property of the base service. Similarly, a ::com::sun::star::form::<a href="../component/module-ix.html">component</a>::<a href="../component/CheckBox.html">CheckBox</a> has a property ::com::sun::star::<a href="../../awt/module-ix.html">awt</a>::<a href="../../awt/UnoControlCheckBoxModel.html">UnoControlCheckBoxModel</a>::<a href="../../awt/UnoControlCheckBoxModel.html#State">State</a>, which reflects the current check state.</p> <p>Usual ::com::sun::star::<a href="../module-ix.html">form</a>::<a href="../DataAwareControlModel.html">DataAwareControlModel</a>s can be bound to a column of a ::com::sun::star::form::<a href="../component/module-ix.html">component</a>::<a href="../component/DataForm.html">DataForm</a>, and exchange their content with such a column.<br/> In particular, when the ::com::sun::star::form::<a href="../component/module-ix.html">component</a>::<a href="../component/DataForm.html">DataForm</a> is moved to a different record, then the bound control model is updated with the value of it's column in this particular row.<br/> On the other hand, when any change in the control model (e.g. resulting from a user entering data in a control associated with the control model) is committed (::com::sun::star::<a href="../module-ix.html">form</a>::<a href="../XBoundComponent.html">XBoundComponent</a>::<a href="../XBoundComponent.html#commit">commit</a>), then the actual data of the control model is written into the associated ::com::sun::star::form::<a href="../component/module-ix.html">component</a>::<a href="../component/DataForm.html">DataForm</a> column.</p> <p><a href="BindableDataAwareControlModel.html">BindableDataAwareControlModel</a>'s additionally support an alternative value binding, which forces them to exchange their value with another foreign instance. In some sense, they are an abstraction of the data aware control models, which only support a specialized, hard-coded value binding (namely the binding to a ::com::sun::star::form::<a href="../component/module-ix.html">component</a>::<a href="../component/DataForm.html">DataForm</a> column).</p> <p>For this, they provide the <a href="XBindableValue.html">XBindableValue</a> interface which allows to set an external component to exchange the value with.</p> <p>The following rules apply when a data aware control model is bound to an external value binding: <ul><li><b>Priority</b><br/> External value bindings overrule any active SQL-column binding. If an external component is bound to a control model which currently has an active SQL binding, this SQL binding is suspended, until the external binding is revoked. </li> <li><b>Activation</b><br/> An external value binding becomes effective as soon as it is set. This is a difference to SQL bindings, which only are effective when the parent form of the control model is loaded (::com::sun::star::<a href="../module-ix.html">form</a>::<a href="../XLoadable.html">XLoadable</a>). </li> <li><b>Immediacy</b><br/> When a <a href="BindableDataAwareControlModel.html">BindableDataAwareControlModel</a> is bound to an external value, then every change in the control model's value is <em>immediately</em> reflected in the external binding. This is a difference to SQL bindings of most ::com::sun::star::<a href="../module-ix.html">form</a>::<a href="../DataAwareControlModel.html">DataAwareControlModel</a>'s, where changes in the control model's value are only propagated to the bound column upon explicit request via ::com::sun::star::<a href="../module-ix.html">form</a>::<a href="../XBoundComponent.html">XBoundComponent</a>::<a href="../XBoundComponent.html#commit">commit</a>.<br/> Note that this restriction is inherited from the <a href="BindableControlModel.html">BindableControlModel</a>. </li> <li><b>Cloning</b><br/> ::com::sun::star::<a href="../module-ix.html">form</a>::<a href="../FormControlModel.html">FormControlModel</a>s support cloning themselves via the ::com::sun::star::<a href="../../util/module-ix.html">util</a>::<a href="../../util/XCloneable.html">XCloneable</a> interface which they inherit from the ::com::sun::star::<a href="../../awt/module-ix.html">awt</a>::<a href="../../awt/UnoControlModel.html">UnoControlModel</a> service.</br> When a <a href="BindableDataAwareControlModel.html">BindableDataAwareControlModel</a> is cloned while it has an active external value binding, then the clone is also bound to the same binding instance.<br/> Note that this restriction is inherited from the <a href="BindableControlModel.html">BindableControlModel</a>. </li> </ul> </p> <p>When a <a href="BindableDataAwareControlModel.html">BindableDataAwareControlModel</a> is being bound to an external value, using <a href="XBindableValue.html">XBindableValue</a>::<a href="XBindableValue.html#setValueBinding">setValueBinding</a>, then the control model (it's value property, respectively) and the external value are initially synchronized by setting the external value (<a href="XValueBinding.html">XValueBinding</a>::<a href="XValueBinding.html#getValue">getValue</a>) at the control model.</p> </dd> </dl> </td> </tr> </table> <hr> <a name="ServicesSummary"/><table border="1" width="100%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" class="subtitle"> <tr> <td class="subtitle" colspan="2">Included Services - Summary</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="imsum_left">::com::sun::star::<a href="../module-ix.html">form</a>::<a href="../DataAwareControlModel.html">DataAwareControlModel</a></td> <td class="imsum_right"><p>specifies the functionality for binding the control model to a column of an SQL ::com::sun::star::form::<a href="../component/module-ix.html">component</a>::<a href="../component/DataForm.html">DataForm</a>. </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="imsum_left"><a href="BindableControlModel.html">BindableControlModel</a></td> <td class="imsum_right"><p>specifies the functionality for <em>alternatively</em> binding the control model to an external value. </p> </td> </tr> </table> <a name="ServicesDetails"/><table border="1" width="100%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" class="subtitle"> <tr> <td class="subtitle" colspan="2">Included Services - Details</td> </tr> <tr/> <tr> <td class="imdetail"><a name="DataAwareControlModel" class="membertitle">::com::sun::star::<a href="../module-ix.html">form</a>::<a href="../DataAwareControlModel.html">DataAwareControlModel</a></a><table border="0" width="96%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" class="table-in-data" bgcolor="#ffffff" align="center"> <tr> <td><dl> <dt><b>Description</b></dt> <dd>specifies the functionality for binding the control model to a column of an SQL ::com::sun::star::form::<a href="../component/module-ix.html">component</a>::<a href="../component/DataForm.html">DataForm</a>. </dd> </dl> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr/> <tr> <td class="imdetail"><a name="BindableControlModel" class="membertitle"><a href="BindableControlModel.html">BindableControlModel</a></a><table border="0" width="96%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" class="table-in-data" bgcolor="#ffffff" align="center"> <tr> <td><dl> <dt><b>Description</b></dt> <dd>specifies the functionality for <em>alternatively</em> binding the control model to an external value. </dd> </dl> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> <br> <a href="#_top_">Top of Page</a><hr size="3"><p class="copyright" align="center">Copyright © 2000, 2012 LibreOffice contributors and/or their affiliates.
