SolutionModel

(solutionModel)

Overview

SolutionModel provides runtime access to design-time objects in Servoy, enabling dynamic application modifications without recompilation. Developers can retrieve and modify forms, relations, media, and methods using methods like getForm(name), newForm(name), and getRelation(name). New components, forms, and relations can also be created or cloned dynamically.

Global methods and variables are managed with methods like newGlobalMethod(scopeName, code) and newGlobalVariable(scopeName, name, type). Existing ones can be removed using corresponding remove methods. Forms can be created with specific layouts and styles, made responsive, or reverted to their original configurations with revertForm(name).

The API supports argument wrapping for event handling with wrapMethodWithArguments(method, args) and allows management of value lists, media, and relations.
