How to get index of a row on click of value help request in sap.m.table?

[Former Member]

Hello,

I am trying to get the index of a row in sap.m.table when user clicks on the value help request icon in a multinput control as highlighted below.

I have used sap.ui.comp.valuehelpdialog.ValueHelpDialog inside the sap.m.table in a multiinput.

Tried a few links and suggestions mentioned on SCN, but couldnt achieve the functionality.

My aim is to set the the value selected from value help in the multiinput, for which I need to bind it with the model of the table and hence I need the index of the table.
Below is the link which I tried :
https://blogs.sap.com/2016/09/05/suggestionsearchvalue-help-in-table-for-multiple-input-fields-in-sa...

In this example, the index is retrieved using the e.getsource().getId() and truncating the index from it, but in my case I am getting dynmic SId and so cannot use the same.
Please suggest.

you can try using binding context as below,

var sBindingContext = oEvent.getSource().getBindingContext();

var sPath = sBindingContext.sPath; //this will return the row binding path for example "/results/1" 1 is row index

// even you can get row data using below code if you need

var rowData = sBindingContext.getObject();

don't use index, you will get bite.

you can use this to update the value.

setProperty(sPath, oValue, oContext?, bAsyncUpdate?)

Hi Akhilesh

Thanks for your response.

I am getting the below value when I try to get the ID. This value keeps on changing. Its not always "...clone35", it varies to any value after clone.
e.getSource().getId()
"__component0---detail--multiInput-__clone35"

Thanks
