In the following scenario, all records of a temporary table are to be passed to a SysOperation construct.

For that we need:

• In the DataContract, a parm-method that takes a container
• In the controller, a logic that iterates the records of a calling data source and packs it into a container, and passes it to the service using the above method
• In the service class we need code, which unpacks and processed the transferred container

Controller

class TutorialSysOperationController extends SysOperationServiceController
{
}

The code below is a simple class construct for the SysOperation framework.

Datacontract

[DataContractAttribute]
public class TutorialSysOperationDataContract
{
    CustAccount custAccount;
}

[DataMemberAttribute]
public CustAccount parmCustAccount(CustAccount _custAccount = custAccount)
{
    custAccount = _custAccount;
    return custAccount;
}

Service

class TutorialSysOperationService extends SysOperationServiceBase
{
}

The method runService() is the actual service method. Using the SysEntryPointAttribute attribute, we control here that no further authorization checks are necessary.

[SysEntryPointAttribute(false)]
public void runService(TutorialSysOperationDataContract _dataContract)
{
    info("Done");
}

The following code shows a very simple class construct for the SysOperation framework. Without the Dataprovider and UIBuilder.

Service

class TutorialSysOperationService extends SysOperationServiceBase
{
}

The method runService() is the actual service method. By means of the attribute SysEntryPointAttribute we control here that no further authorization checks are necessary.

[SysEntryPointAttribute(false)]
public void runService()
{
    info("Done");
}

Controller

class TutorialSysOperationController extends SysOperationServiceController
{
}

In the new()-method, we link the controller to the service class.

void new()
{
    super();

    this.parmClassName(classStr(TutorialSysOperationService));
    this.parmMethodName(methodStr(TutorialSysOperationService, runService));
}

The main()-method is the classic entry point when the controller is called via a MenuItem.

public static void main(Args _args)
{
    TutorialSysOperationController controller;

    controller = new TutorialSysOperationController();
    controller.parmArgs(_args);

    controller.parmExecutionMode(SysOperationExecutionMode::Synchronous);

    controller.startOperation();
}

With the help of the job shown here, you can create a shared project by code, add objects and group them into groups per object type.

static void AddNodeToSharedProject(Args _args)
{
    projectNode projectNode;
    TreeNode treeNode;
    ProjectName projectName = "MyProject";
    
    #AOT
    #AOTExport
    
    void addTreeNodeToProjectNode(treeNode _treeNode)
    {
        TmpIdRef tmpIdRef;
            
        tmpIdRef.clear();
        tmpIdRef.Name = SysTreeNode::getPath(_treeNode);
        tmpIdRef.Mode = SysTreeNode::path2ApplObjectType(tmpIdRef.Name);
        tmpIdRef.useMode = UtilFileType::Application;
        tmpIdRef.insert();
        
        SysProjectFilterRunBase::addProjectNodes(tmpIdRef, projectNode);           
    }

    projectNode    = infolog.projectRootNode();
    projectNode    = projectNode.AOTfindChild(#expProjectShared);
    projectNode    = projectNode.AOTfindChild(projectName);
   
    // Create shared project if neccessary
    if( !projectNode)
    {
        projectNode = SysTreeNode::createProject(projectName, ProjectSharedPrivate::ProjShared);        
    }
    
    // Add objects (and create groups)
    treenode = TreeNode::findNode(#TablesPath+#AOTRootPath+tableid2name(tablenum(AccountingDistribution)));
    addTreeNodeToProjectNode(treenode);

    treenode = TreeNode::findNode(#TablesPath+#AOTRootPath+tableid2name(tablenum(VendGroup)));
    addTreeNodeToProjectNode(treenode);
   
    treenode = TreeNode::findNode(#ClassesPath+#AOTRootPath+classStr(PriceDisc));
    addTreeNodeToProjectNode(treenode);

}

In the same way you can also create a private project, simply replace the occurrences of Shared by Private.

The created project looks like this:
