ADF Table dependant list select one choice : Thing I learned being stupid final

It ended up the source of all my problems was an invalid long to string conversion while rendering my select items.

So if you are having endless hassles with a dependent select box in a table try this when you are rendering the lists to make sure you are not rendering a string and matching on long or int:
    public List convertItem(List dataItems) {
        ArrayList covertedList = new ArrayList();
        if (dataItems != null) {
            for (Site dataItem : dataItems) {
                SelectItem item = new SelectItem(new String(dataItem.getId()), dataItem.getDescription());
                covertedList.add(item);
            }

        }
        return covertedList;
    }

ADF sort of generic screen for tables with the same structure

We have a couple (about a hundred) of tables with the same structure (Code, Description, Create Date, Update Date). So I wanted to do something simple so that I did not have to create all these screens 1) EO   I created the EO based on one of the tables I had that had the above columns. I then Added a transient attribute called table name to my EO based on a groovy expression. (the expression needs to change as I am reading web tier stuff from the model layer but I will fix this later) I then generated a java class for my EO. And added the following overriden method to my newly created java class. protected StringBuffer buildDMLStatement(int i, AttributeDefImpl[] attributeDefImpl,   AttributeDefImpl[] attributeDefImpl2, AttributeDefImpl[] attributeDefImpl3, boolean b) {   StringBuffer statement = super.buildDMLStatement(   i, attributeDefImpl, attributeDefImpl2, attributeDefImpl3, b); return new StringBuffer(StringUtils.replace(statement.to...
