Dynamic Model: refine computed DisplayName

Hi Christian,

from my understanding, I think a computed attribute can't be a string (see the expression in MODEL doc). Now regarding your needs, the DisplayName can be computed at discovery time, which should be a good solution (no change between 2 discoveries), or if there is lot of change during the object life, you can subscribe to attribute change and trigger the change of the DisplayName based on the new value.

HTH,

Hello

In the dasboard I checked and I saw the type of Field "computed (with expression) string". Somehow it is also possible to refine such an attribute of type string. But if I have a look wo the definition I don't know how to interpret it.

Regards,
Christian

Hi Christian,

unfortunately, there is some differences of the features existing within a DM and the ones available using DynamicModule ... you can try to open a ticket to see if this is a bug or not. As there is no doc regarding the computed attribute of type string, the behavior can be by design or by mistake.
