Remove a soft patch or soft properties by using the ClearSoftPatches Method.
Example
1. Create the list object ListObject01.
The client sends:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "CreateSessionObject",
"handle": 1,
"params": [
{
"qInfo": {
"qId": "ListObject01",
"qType": "ListObject"
},
"qListObjectDef": {
"qStateName": "$",
"qLibraryId": "",
"qDef": {
"qFieldDefs": [
"Country"
],
"qFieldLabels": [
"Country Label"
],
"qSortCriterias": [
{
"qSortByLoadOrder": 1
}
]
},
"qInitialDataFetch": [
{
"qTop": 0,
"qHeight": 1,
"qLeft": 0,
"qWidth": 1
}
]
},
"title": "Title for list object 01",
"Number": 1,
"Boolean": true
}
]
}
The engine returns:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"result": {
"qReturn": {
"qType": "GenericObject",
"qHandle": 2
}
},
"change": [
2
]
}
The list object is created and has 2 as a handle.
2. Apply a soft patch.
The client sends:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",

"qOp": "add",
"qValue": "\"Title 2\""
}
],
true
