ADF: Rollback findings - generic rollback ordering of iterators

Ok so a couple of our screens where not working with the generic rollback I wrote.
I was getting a key not found exception.
Through a bit of debugging i found the problem, I was using getDCBindingContainer().getAllIterBindingList() to get a list of iterators use in the page I was on - the problem with this is if the bindings on your page are not in order you could end up refreshing the child iterator before refreshing the parent and thus your keys will not be correct.

I swapped the order of my iterators in the page binding and it all worked.

I now need to write some code to refresh the parents first then the children.


Here we go

  

ArrayList list = ADFUtils.getDCBindingContainer().getAllIterBindingList();
for(Object listItem : list) {
  if(bondage.getViewObject() instanceof ViewObjectImpl) {
    ViewObjectImpl vo = (ViewObjectImpl) bondage.getViewObject();
      if(vo.isPagePositionSet()) {
        RowSetIterator[] mrsi = vo.getMasterRowSetIterators();
        if(mrsi != null) {
          for(RowSetIterator parentIterator : mrsi) {
            if(parentIterator instanceof ViewObjectImpl) {
              ViewObjectImpl parentVO = (ViewObjectImpl) parentIterator;
              parentVO.setRangeStart(selectedRangeStart);
              parentVO.findAndSetCurrentRowByKey(selectedCurrentRowKey,
                  selectedRangeIndexOf);
              }
            }
          }

  1. Nice to read this! For me, the default rollback is the worst thing in Oracle ADF!

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...]
