Developing and Configuring the Custom Document View

The Custom Document View is used to display application specific details to the resource in the activity list. In the image given below the document view is marked as red. Custom document view has to be configured in the WorkflowNET.Config.xml file, using the tag,

<documentwebviewcontrol 
							class="Workflow.NET.Web.ActivityDocumentDetails.DocumentDetailsControl" 
							assembly="D:\Program

							   Files\Skelta\Workflow.NET\bin\Workflow.NET.Web.ActivityDocumentDetails.dll" 
							param=""/>

Activity List with Document View highlighted

A sample code for developing a custom document view is given below.

public class DocumentDetailsControl : 
							WebControl,Workflow.NET.Interfaces.IActivityWebUIHandler

							   {

							

							      private ActivityContext 
							CurrentActivityContext;

							      private string Parameter;

							

							      // Contructor

							      public DocumentDetailsControl()

							      {

							

							      }

							      // Contructor with parameter

							      public DocumentDetailsControl( string 
							Parameter )

							      {

							            this.Parameter 
							= Parameter;

							      }

							

							      // Initialize

							      protected override void 
							OnInit(System.EventArgs e)

							      {

							

							      }

							

							      // Context Object

							      public void SetContext(ActivityContext 
							ActContext)

							      {

							            CurrentActivityContext 
							= ActContext;

							      }

							

							      // Displays the details of the activity and 
							the data submitted by the user to the engine

							      protected override void 
							Render(HtmlTextWriter htw)

							      {

							            Context.Response.Clear();

							            if( 
							!CommonFunctions.IsEmpty(Parameter) )

							                  htw.Write("<B>Parameter 
							Passed:</B>" + Parameter + "<BR>");

							

							            htw.Write("<FONT 
							FACE=VERDANA SIZE=1>");
							

							            htw.Write("<BR><B>Execution 
							Id:</B>" + CurrentActivityContext.ExecutionId);

							            htw.Write("<BR><B>Execution 
							Details Id:</B>" + CurrentActivityContext.ExecutionDetailsId);
							

							            htw.Write("<BR><B>Activity 
							Id:</B>" + CurrentActivityContext.ActivityId);
							

							            htw.Write("<BR><B>Action:</B>" 
							+ CurrentActivityContext.CurrentAction.Name);

							            htw.Write("<BR><B>Data 
							Submitted:</B><BR>");

							            htw.Write("<TEXTAREA 
							COLS=40 ROWS=10>" + CurrentActivityContext.WorkflowContext.Data + 
							"</TEXTAREA>");

							            htw.Write("</FONT>");

							            base.Render(htw);

							            Context.Response.End();

							      }
