Class FieldChangeEvent

      com.sage.accpac.sm.FieldChangeEvent

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

@Immutable
@ThreadSafe
public class FieldChangeEvent
extends java.util.EventObject

Contains the details of a field change notification.

The notification event's View can be retrieved by obtaining the event's source using getSource().

Use getFieldID() to see which field generated this event.

If this is associated with a field attribute change then call isEditable(), isEnabled(), #isInKey() and isRequired() to see what the new values are for these dynamic attributes.
