storeByCondition

[Vikas Jadhav-2]

Hi,

I am using GenericDelegator to to retrieve or store data from the tables.

But I am facing some problems to update some records using delegators.

e.g. I have a table as below.
EMP (empId primary key, name, age, salary, dept foreign key)

Here I want to update the salary of all the employees who belongs to
specific department.
e.g.
UPDATE EMP set salary=salary * 10 where dept='QA';

So, how to put this in ofbiz delegator.
How to set fields to update in query.

especially.. how to put salary=salary*10 in fieldsToUpdate map?

Thanks,
Vikas

you can create the entity by using
https://localhost:8443/webtools/control/view/ModelInduceFromDb
once you clean them up you can use the entities created with java or
minilang to do CRUD services.
ofbiz will even create the CRUD services for you.
http://www.nabble.com/The-fancy-new-entity-auto-service-execution-engine-td18674040.html

you can use the mini lang to find records then update them.
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/OFBiz+Beginners+Development+Guide+Using+Practice+Application+%28Hello+World...%29
look at part 3.

the
applications\party\script\org\ofbiz\party\party\PartySimpleMethods.xml
can give you ideas.

you can also
https://localhost:8443/webtools/control/EntitySQLProcessor
look at the
framework\webtools\webapp\webtools\WEB-INF\actions\entity\EntitySQLProcessor.groovy

I don't believe you can use that method to operate on the fields that  
you want to change, you can only use it to update to a predefined  
value i.e. a map containing [salary, 10000] for fieldsToSet

If you wanted to multiply each salary by 10 (how generous of you :-)  
you would probably be best to retrieve the list of records you want to  
change, iterate of over them changing each record one by one and then  
use delegator.storeAll(luckyEmployees);

Thanks for the reply.

I had done the same way.. But I was looking for best solution for that.
