Miscellaneous
Property Description
Version Shows version number on mobile application project
Warning message Shows warning messages in wizards, Properties view, Problems view, and Mobile Application Diagram
Preview Determines how a mobile business object component is previewed:
  • Show warning when executing – displays a pop-up message indicating Preview may affect EIS data.
  • Show row number – adds a column in the preview output that lists row numbers.
  • Maximum rows to display – limits the number of rows to preview. The default is 100 rows. If this number is too high, the preview may take a long time to complete.
  • Display null value as – enter a value to display for null value. <NULL> is the default.
  • Maximum length displayed in column – truncates the output to the maximum length indicated. The default is 30 characters per column.
Code generation
  • Do not show code generation completion dialog again – select if you do not want to see the code generation completion dialog.
  • JavaDoc generation heap size (MB) – used only when you choose Generate JavaDoc in the configure options in the Generate Code wizard.
    Note: The default heap size is set to 128MB, but if you get errors, set the heap size larger than the default 128MB.
Data length Sets the default for various attribute and parameter datatype values:
  • Default string length – default preference for string length is 20 when String(%n) is selected.
  • Default binary length – default preference for a binary datatype length is 10 when Binary(%n) is selected.
Note: If String or Binary is selected without "(%n)", SAP Mobile WorkSpace sets them to String(300) and Binary(32762) respectively, and warns the MBO developer to make adjustments to avoid wasting space or data truncation.
Relationship
  • Set the mapped attributes or parameter's propagate-to attributes as primary key and auto-generate the object query – set to Prompt (default), Yes (perform without prompt), or No (do not perform).
  • Show label for relationship in diagram editor – select this option to label the relationship when displayed in the Mobile Application Diagram.
Non-JDBC old value argument support Support non-JDBC old value argument support, which also requires support in the EIS

  • Is notified when a structure is generated with compatible fields for large object fields.
