Increase Icon size of af:panelSpringBoard using ADF Skin


ADF Faces af:panelSpringBoard component shows af:showDetailItem in a fancy view using icons as the notation of showDetailItem

From Oracle Docs

The panelSpringboard control can be used to display a group of contents that belongs to a showDetailItem. An icon strip with icons representing the showDetailItem children along with the item's contents are displayed when in strip mode, and a grid of icons with no contents shown is displayed in grid mode. When the user selects an icon while the panelSpringboard is in strip mode, the panelSpringboard discloses the associated showDetailItem. When the user selects an icon while the panelSpringboard is in grid mode, this automatically causes the panelSpringboard to display in strip mode. Typically you would put one or more showDetailItem components inside of the panelSpringboard but you may also alternatively place a facetRef, group, iterator, or switcher inside of the panelSpringboard as long as these wrappers provide showDetailItem components as a result of their execution

I have added a panel springboard on the page and by default, it looks like this

Previously I have posted about In-Memory filtering of ViewObject by changing ViewCriteria's query execution mode, Now this post is about In-Memory sorting of records in viewObject. By default sorting and filtering in viewObject works on the rows retrieved from DB

We can change ViewObject Query mode as per our requirement, There are 3 different SQL query mode

ADF Basics: Filter ViewObject data using getFilteredRows and RowQualifier


Sometimes we need to get filtered data from ViewObject using one or multiple conditions,
Though this is the very basic of framework yet new developers find it confusing.

There are two ways of filtering ViewObject

 1. In this we apply WHERE clause on ViewObject and it affects resultSet data, Suppose we have Department ViewObject and we want to see data of DepartmentId 4 on page after filtering, for this viewCritera, bind variables comes in action
ADF Basics: Apply and Change WHERE Clause of ViewObject at runtime programmatically

2. In this user want to get filtered data (Rows) in code only without any effect on ViewObject resultSet (page data), Here I am discussing this point

We can get filtered data from view object using two methods-

Reinitialise taskFlow in dynamic region and set focus to default activity


Hello All

We all use bounded task flows in ADF application development and to switch between multiple task flows we use concept of dynamic region

Populate select one choice using Web Service Data Control in ADF Application


My previous post was about creating a JAX-WS Web Service from Java Bean and consuming web service and showing data in ADF table. Now In this post, I am going to elaborate about consuming that Web Service in ADF Application and show Employees data in selectOneChoice component


So for this requirement, We need to use Web Service Data Control and from that WSDL we can create ADF Faces components

Let's see how to implement this

Understanding Nested Application Modules in Oracle ADF


Application Module acts as a container for view Object and view Link business components that are used in a specific task. It provides data model and data control to show required information and perform action for the client
An application module represents a single transaction and owns one database connection that's why commit and rollback works for all view Objects inside an application module

Check for dirty (Uncommitted) data of current view port (page) on a button click or any event in ADF


Sometimes we need to check for uncommitted data on page and perform actions according to that, Suppose there is a button to navigate to another page but only if there is no uncommitted data in current page
We can use uncommitted data warning property of af:document to show an alert dialog but in that way, we can't execute our custom logic

Previously I have posted about checking dirty data of a transactional data control but in that, we need to check that for each data control separately that is rendering on page

Undo row selection of af:table in selection listener method conditionally


Recently I have seen a question on OTN Jdeveloper forum and It was about table selection listener
Requirement is like this suppose user has to check a condition after selecting a row and if that condition is true only then new row will be selected else selected row should be previous one

It means undo row selection on validation(condition) failure
So In this post I am implementing same scenario and here I am using Departments table of HR Schema to prepare model and condition is that user should be able to select new row only if ManagerId is not null

ADF Basics| Tip to Hide af:inputListOfValues search popup at runtime

Hello All

Previously I have posted about a requiremnt of  hiding af:inputListOfValues search icon using CSS
ADF Skinning | Hiding search icon of af:inputListOfValues using CSS & StyleClass

In that solution search icon doesn't appear on page but it is a part of JSF component tree so when user press TAB+SPACE after entering a value in lov component then search popup appears on screen as this action invokes search icon click event

Recently a Friend of mine came across another requirement that was not showing lov popup at all as only autoSuggest behavior was required , so for this first way is to use autoSuggest behavior in an af:inputText compoent using Lov bindings and second way is to short circuit component life cycle
