public class CalculatedFieldDefinitionBuilder
extends FieldDefinitionBuilder

Builder for CalculatedFields.

A common calculated field definition is as follows :

<fd:calculatedfield id="id" [state="{invisible|output|disabled|active}"]> <fd:datatype base="...">...</fd:datatype> <fd:label>...</fd:label> <fd:value type="...">...</fd:algorithm> </fd:calculatedfield>

Since it inherits from Field, other attributes and elements may be specified, like listeners (on-value-changed, on-create etc..) or selection lists (which could make sense if the algorithm calculates one value between many possibilities).

Note that the default state is active, althought typing in a calculated field is useless. The state invisible can be used to create fields which are used as temporary value placeholders in a chain of calculations.
