Callback Parameters

This has probably been asked before.... Is it possible to pass parameter values to a function callback? Something like:

Code: Select all

<Field id="aButton" type="button">
    <Label>A Label</Label>
    <Title>A Title</Title>
    <CallbackMethod>someCallbackMethod(parm1='foo', parm2='bar')</CallbackMethod>
</Field>


I tried a couple different constructions but came up empty.

I guess it’s the valuesdict only.
Q why would you want to not use the valuesdict?
You can have hidden fields you can read and set in the plugin

More for simplicity than anything really.

valuesDict will work but requires two controls for each callback (one for the control and one for the payload).

No way to do this currently. When I've needed similar functionality I've created stub callback methods that then call through to a shared method with the constant argument added.

Thanks Matt - you know what would be an awesome feature?

Code: Select all

<Field id="aButton" type="button">
    <Label>A Label</Label>
    <Title>A Title</Title>
    <CallbackMethod>someCallbackMethod(payload={'parm1': 1, 'parm2': 2})</CallbackMethod>
</Field>

Seriously though, passing the parms using a hidden control will work just fine for my purposes.
