I wrote this part to bind OData information with a select controller:
var countrItems = new sap.ui.core.ListItem();
countrItems.bindProperty("key", "Land1");
countrItems.bindProperty("text", "Landx");
var CountrSelect = this.byId("CountrySelect");
CountrSelect.setModel(oModelTriptab);
CountrSelect.bindItems("/Countries", countrItems);
I would like to perform an action after the binding is complete (I want to select some default value that can change dynamically).
Use the model's requestCompleted
event handler to perform any actions that should happen right after your model data is updated.
The binding itself should be rather static (i.e. it will not change) so you'r only interested in when the data is changed
edit here's an example implemantation:
var that = this;
oModelTriptab.attachRequestCompleted(function(oEvent){
var oSelect = that.byId("CountrySelect");
oSelect.setSelectedKey("whatever");
});
See https://openui5.hana.ondemand.com/docs/api/symbols/sap.ui.model.Model.html#attachRequestCompleted for more info
Attach handlers to events provided by Binding:
<Select items="{
path: '/Countries',
events: {
dataRequested: '.onCountriesRequested',
dataReceived: '.onCountriesReceived',
change: '.onCountriesChange'
}
}">
Those events can be applied, not only to ListBindings, but to all bindings. Note: PropertyBindings do not trigger any requests, so no dataRequested
or dataReceived
for them.
I would like to perform an action after the binding is complete.
In that case, you'd attach a handler either to change
or dataReceived
event to be notified about the "complete" binding.
Compared to attaching a handler to requestCompleted
, the above approach is more descriptive and, most importantly, binding-specific.
List, m.Table, m.Tree, ...
Alternatively, UI5 offers the event updateFinished
for Controls derived from sap.m.ListBase
. It's similar to the change
event, but provides more information such as an additional "Growing"
reason, actual, and total count of the entries.
<List
updateFinished=".onCountriesUpdateFinished"
items="..."
>
onCountriesUpdateFinished: function(event) {
const reasonForUpdate = event.getParameter("reason"); // "Refresh", "Growing", "Filter", "Sort", "Context", ...
const currentlyLoadedNumberOfCountries = event.getParameter("actual");
const totalNumberOfCountries = event.getParamter("total") // Value of $count
// ...
}
