"Enable Feature" in Custom Javascript

[TonyDB]

I have a "feature" in my app (an icon column) that I hide/show in my rpgle program like this:

setResponse('enableFeature' : 'myIcon');
setResponse('disableFeature' : 'myIcon');


Can I do the same in a custom javascript?

When you create features it should create an app variable that then you can set that to true or false to turn on/off the feature

[TonyDB]

Does the new app variable share the same name as the feature? For instance, if my feature was named 'myIcon', then in my javascript, I could do this:

setAppVar('myIcon' , true);

and that would be the same as this in RPGLE:

setResponse('enableFeature' : 'myIcon');

A feature named myIcon would be an app variable of 'nabFeaturemyIcon'. You can see the feature app variables in the main app variables list.

Yes, setting the app variable to true would do the same as enableFeature. Below is an example of feature app variable in the list
