2246.0. "Attribute "NrChildren" not available in Layout-Dialog" by ATZIS3::atzpc2.aui.dec.com::HUSCHKA_A (SIB-OFFICE) Fri May 23 1997 11:14

Hi,

the attribute "NrChildren" does not appear in the Objectclass-Layout Dialog 
of a compound object.

Is there a way to make this attribute available so it can be assigned when
defining the layout for a new compound class ?? 

LNX 3.0.8, OSFORA

    Andreas,
    
    The "NrChildren" attribute is a calculated attribute that will only
    have a value when reading it from Aattribut Access, it is not Intended
    to work in the ListMode windows.
    
    So the answer to your question: No not possible.

2246.2Assignment on desk possible but not in CPATZIS3::au7249.aui.dec.com::HuschkaFri May 23 1997 15:3919
Han,

maybe I was not clear enough specifing my problem.

I can assign this Attribut from the layout menu of a compound object
(and it will show me the number of children of compound objects in listmode).

I cannot assign this attribute in classprogramming when defining the
default layout of a compound objectclass.

So the question is whyt does this attribute not appear in classprogramming
during default layout setup of a compound objectclass.

    Andreas,
    
    Yes you are correct I was thinking of the wrong things, 
    
    The attribute can't be selected in the default setting this is a known
    limitation for 3.0.8.
    
    3.2.2 will allow you to use this feature?
    
    It is an answer to your question but if you are not satisfied please
    sent a problem report on this.
    
    Regards,
    Han
