Arthur Clement Hace 14 años Indeed Ray, I have often been confrontated with this problem myself and your solution does solve the problem of adding the columns.But to go one step further, when accessing the custom attributes via the expando bridge API, permissioning is also built in and you usually need to add view permissions for the corresponding roles (user or guest for example).I recently had to do this on a custom attribute on organizations so that I could display the organization profile on a page accessible for guest users.Here is the code that I used in my AppStartupAction to ensure that the guest role had the correct permission : Role guest = RoleLocalServiceUtil.getRole(companyId, RoleConstants.GUEST);PermissionLocalServiceUtil.setRolePermission(guest.getRoleId(), companyId, ExpandoColumn.class.getName(), ResourceConstants.SCOPE_COMPANY, String.valueOf(companyId), ActionKeys.VIEW); Por favor identifíquese para votar.

Lirone75 M. Hace 12 años Don't understand this article, what is WOL, what this code line " doRun(GetterUtil.getLong(ids[0]));" is supposed to do. What is DEFAULT_TABLE_NAME. Seriously guys, that's ununderstoodable, I just want to add custom field in a hook at startup, falling in this article is very frightening Por favor identifíquese para votar. Contestar como...

"ids[0]" is the first (liferay.com only has one, so Brian chan just hard coded it). "GetterUtil.getLong(ids[0])" is a utility that (tries) converts strings to primitives. Finally "doRun(...)" is just a indirection method that delegates the API call to an implementation method (keeping some of the housekeeping code out of the actual business logic of the method, it's a common Liferay pattern.)3 - ExpandoTableConstants.DEFAULT_TABLE_NAME is a public final static String containing the name of the "custom fields" expando table.
