ADF service based lov and query

I want to have a LOV/ query backed by a webservice in adf.

Looks like I am going to have to implement some code for this ()

XCode - Bound to a returned service value for now.


<af:inputListOfValues id="XCode"
  popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.XCode.hints.label}"
  value="#{bindings.XCode.inputValue}" label="#{bindings.XCode.hints.label}"
  model="#{viewScope.backingBean.listOfValuesDataModel}"
  required="#{bindings.XCode.hints.mandatory}"
  shortDesc="#{bindings.XCode.hints.tooltip}" styleClass="colspec_fshort"/>


Map your service and execute. In the listOfValuesDataModel method.
      Object ob = ADFUtils.executeOperationBinding("findCodeTypesVO", new HashMap());

Map that to a custom implementation of oracle.adf.view.rich.model.ListOfValuesModel and return it.
There is a nice example of how to do this in the ADF demo application code. oracle.adfdemo.view.lov.DemoLOVBean

Will post more once I have implemented some more.

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...

MANIFEST.MF merge JDeveloper for an executable jar

Goto your project > properties. Then click on deployment in the menu. Edit or add a jar deployment profile. Fill in the details under jar options (select Include manifest and give it a main class name) Also remember that the merge functionality only works with a BLANK line at the end of the merge file. REALLY this caught me. My merge file contents: Class-Path: commons-codec-1.3.jar [...empty line here CRLF...]
