CRM 2011 Find out the registered events of an entity form

Question

Hello Everyone,

I would like to know how we can find out the registered control and form events with methods.

Say for instance, on account entity I have registered around 10 different web resources libraries.

Now, I would quickly like to see the list of all JavaScript events registered either at control level or at form level for account entity.

Is it possible to know OOB? Is there any tool that helps me to identify the same.

Hello Carsten,

Thanks for the response.

As i could understand,  this tool will export the all web resources.

Does it help to identify the the events and methods name for an entity?

I am not sure if there is a tool that does exactly what you want. One option is to look at the solution packager tool that is part of the UR9 beta build. A bot if detail on tool is available here:

If you look at the folder structure screenshot, notice that each entity has FormXML for the main display, which you can open and search for the right terms to see if there is js code in it.

An entity can have different forms so this information wil vary per form. I believe the last statement from Mani can get you there.

You can query the SystemForm entity, filter it by type = 2 (Main Form), name and ObjectTypeCode and read the FormXml. Parse through the xml and you will find what you need.
