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

OTN Question: Not able to see last record in af:table when using icons (May be a bug)


Hello All

This post is about a problem that occurs sometimes in af:table when we use icon in any column, I am not sure that it is a bug or not but sometimes table is not fully stretched on first load and last row doesn't appear properly on page but after refreshing page again problem is solved.

ADF Basics: Tip for not showing record in dependent lov


Hello All

Recently I have seen a question on OTN forum - Question on cascading LOV

It was about cascading lovs in ADF
Suppose we have 2 dependent LOVs and requirement is that 2nd lov should not show any data until first one is selected , this is very simple and common use case but for beginners it's a tedious task

So I thought to write it here to help others

Fetch Tweets of a User using Twitter4J API and show in af:table in ADF & Java


In the previous blogs we learned about posting tweets on twitter timeline using Twitter4J API and sending direct meaages to followers using same API

This post is next in the series and about fetching a user tweets and showing in ADF Table , For this requirement we need to use same Consumer Key+ Secret and Access Token+Secret (Refer previous posts for this)

And In same way after authentication we can fetch a user tweets by using it's twitter handle. So for this requirement I have added a button to fetch tweets and a POJO based table to show fetched tweets in page

See the code to fetch tweets using user's twitter handle and it's retweets and favourites count, We can get tweets by passing page number as parameter and it returns a list of tweets
