LOV problem in a multi line edit list

JDeveloper 11.1.2.1

We where having problems with our LOV lookups in a multi table edit list.

Where scolling down on the lov with a substantial number of records the LOV list would just reflect Fetching Records... indefinitely.

For now I have bound the multi list LOV to another lov model I had on the page with the same LOV in and it works but I will put some more time in finding another solution to this at some time because I am going on holiday next week - awesome.

Example
Had the following LOV on the page

<af:inputListOfValues id="ilov1" popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.label}"
  value="#{bindings.EmployeeId.inputValue}"
  label="#{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.label}"
  model="#{bindings.EmployeeId.listOfValuesModel}"
  required="#{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.mandatory}"
  columns="#{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.displayWidth}"
  shortDesc="#{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.tooltip}">
  <f:validator binding="#{bindings.EmployeeId.validator}"/>
  <af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false" pattern="#{bindings.EmployeeId.format}"/>
</af:inputListOfValues>

And this LOV was the problematic on in an editable table.

<af:inputListOfValues id="employeeIdId"
 popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.label}"
 value="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.inputValue}"
 model="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.listOfValuesModel}"
 required="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.mandatory}"
 columns="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.displayWidth}"
 shortDesc="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.tooltip}">
  <f:validator binding="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.validator}"/>
  <af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false"
    pattern="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.format}"/>
</af:inputListOfValues>

So I endeded up with this for the problematic one:
<af:inputListOfValues id="employeeIdId"
 popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.label}"
 value="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.inputValue}"
 model="#{bindings.EmployeeId.listOfValuesModel}"
 required="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.mandatory}"
 columns="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.displayWidth}"
 shortDesc="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.tooltip}">
  <f:validator binding="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.validator}"/>
  <af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false"
    pattern="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.format}"/>
</af:inputListOfValues>

ADF: LOV Description instead of code

I keep on forgetting how to do this so this is a note to self in terms I understand (ie pictures): Add the related entiy object to yours (in the example we are adding RegionEO(list of values) to CountryEO) Now add the RegionName field from the EO and a transient attribute (I named mine RegionNameLOV) Make the transient attribute updateable and base it on the expression RegionName (the description you wish to display) Add a list of values to RegionNameLOV and map BOTH key to parent fk (region id here) AND RegionName to your transient coulmn (RegionNameLOV).  Map the transient as an Input text with List of Values. Then just drag the lov item onto the page (RegionNameLOV)

Util code

public static MethodExpression getMethodExpression( String expr, Class returnType, Class[] argTypes){ FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); ELContext elctx = fc.getELContext(); ExpressionFactory elFactory = fc.getApplication().getExpressionFactory(); return elFactory.createMethodExpression( elctx, expr, returnType, argTypes); } public static javax.faces.el.MethodBinding getMethodBinding( String expr, Class[] argTypes){ FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); ELContext elctx = fc.getELContext(); return fc.getApplication().createMethodBinding(expr, argTypes); } SetPropertyListener listener = new SetPropertyListener( ActionEvent.class.getName()); listener.setFrom(link.getRoute()); listener.setValueExpression("to", JSFUtils.getValueExpression("#{pageFlowScope.route}", String.class)); action.addActionListener(listener); AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getPageFlowScope() .put("route", lin...
