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: 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)
