Hi Guys,
just wanted to ask if the FieldUpdated handler will fire off when the field is populated via the SetValueExt method.
Thanks guys,
Aleks
Answer
Field Updated Handler trigger with SetValueExt
Best answer by darylbowman
That is one of the documented purposes, yes, as opposed to .SetValue. However, in my experience, there is a difference in behavior between using it in an event handler and using it elsewhere. In an event handler, e.Cache.SetValueExt works very well by itself. Elsewhere, it usually needs a View.Update(row) accompanying it.
I’d love for someone to explain that.

+15I’m aware. However, why .SetValueExt doesn’t work the same when interacting with a View as with e.Cache is what I’m curious about.
