Accessing Components of a screen in fieldlistener

[paramasivan]

Hi to all,

I have an application(Developed by JDE4.2.1.40) with two ButtonField(Labelled Button1, Button2) and one Textfield in screen1.

I need to update the TextField with the label of the button clicked.

If Button1 is clicked, TextField should have the value 'Button1'.

If Button2 is clicked, TextField should have the value 'Button2'.

I can get the label of clicked button.

But how can update it in the TextField.

How can i access the TextField of the screen?

I've tried with screen1.TextField1.

But it not works.

In short, My Question is how can i access the components of a screen in FieldListener class of a button which is in the same screen?

Thanks in advance.

I think what you want to do is access the static UIApplication.getActiveScreen().getField(with some number). If you want to update an object, set the contents of the new object and then call the invalidate method on that particular object.

Hi,
If the screen 1 is the active screen then

In the trackwheelclick method{

Field field = this.getLeafFieldWithFocus();
if(field.equals(button1)){ //button1 is Buttton 1's object
textField.setText(button1.getlabel());
}
else if(field.equals(button2)){ //button2 is Buttton 2's object
textField.setText(button2.getlabel());
}
}
