DataBinding - AppDaddy-Software-Solutions-Inc/framework-markup-language GitHub Wiki

The GLOBAL BINDINGS are system wide bindables that are returned in any widgets scope. [SYSTEM.] [USER.] [STASH] [GLOBAL] and [CLOCK.] are used to access these bindings.

Table of Contents

Usage

To access variables defined by the software.

Ideals:

  • SYSTEM.binding returns the system variables.
  • CLOCK.binding returns a created clock variable, outside of the system time.
  • USER.binding returns the user record variables, which are mapped from the API's returned document.
  • TEMPLATE.attribute returns the outer TEMPLATE <FML> tags' attributes without the need to use the ID's.

Restrictions:

  • USER. are custom mapped vars and can contain whatever the developer has specified.
  • GLOBAL. are custom mapped widgets in the global.xml file in the root and can contain whatever the developer has specified.
  • STASH. are custom mapped key value pairs set using the stash() event, and can contain whatever the developer has specified.
  • CLOCK. only ticks if it is being listened for by a binding or other widget.
