Adding a custom attribute WebCenter menu...

Find the schema section in your menu xml --> ie default-navigation-model.xml

Add a descriptor:
    <descriptor shortLabelKey="TITLE.SHORT_PROMPT_KEY" multivalue="false"
                attributeId="NewAtrr" labelKey="TITLE.PROMPT_KEY"
                endUserVisible="true" searchable="true"
                xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/rcs/catalog"/>

Note: you can change the shortLabelKey and labelKey by adding a resourceBundle="..." but that is another post....

Looks a bit like this:
<schema resourceBundle="oracle.adf.rc.attribute.nls.AttributeBundle"
          xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/rcs/catalog">
    <descriptor shortLabelKey="TITLE.SHORT_PROMPT_KEY" multivalue="false"
                attributeId="Title" labelKey="TITLE.PROMPT_KEY"
                endUserVisible="true" searchable="true"
                xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/rcs/catalog"/>


Your new custom attribute is ready to use.

These attributes are accessible (el and programmaticly)

el : #{node.attributes['NewAtrr']}
programmaticly : node.getAttributes.get("NewAtrr");

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...]
