Removing standard operators for a field in Advanced search

Question

Hi,
JDev 11.1.1.3.
In ADF application, we need to remove few standard operators from the list for a field in Advanced search. For this we have followed the below oracle documentation:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/web.1111/b31974/web_search_bc.htm#ADFFD2457
27.3.3 How to Create Custom Operators or Remove Standard Operators
As specified in the doc, we have added the below "CompOper" tag to VO.xml. We have to remove all the operators present in the list except the "Equal to". But the issue is, using below code the "Not between" and "contains" operators are deleted from list, but "Not equl to" is still getting displayed. We have also tried "Doesnotequal". I have tried the oper string with spaces, without spaces, spaces replaced by underscore.
Can some one please provide the exact String to be passed in oper attribute of CompOper for all operators?
<ViewCriteriaItem
Name="CmLookupTypesVOCriteria_vcrow16_Category"
ViewAttribute="Category"
Operator="="
Conjunction="AND"
Required="Optional"
UpperColumns="1">
<CompOper Name="Category" ToDo="-1" Oper="NOTEQUALTO"/>
<CompOper Name="Category" ToDo="-1" Oper="NOTBETWEEN"/>
<CompOper Name="Category" ToDo="-1" Oper="CONTAINS"/>
</ViewCriteriaItem>
Thanks,

Answer 1

I am not able to find the list for the entire set of operators, but you could follow a simple technique to identify the exact operator to be used:
In the View Criteria editor, for any of the attribute, modify the operator to any desired value, this would update the *VO.xml,
use the same operator, if you want to hide it in advanced mode - as you have done earlier.
<ViewCriteriaItem
Name="CmLookupTypesVOCriteria_vcrow16_Category"
ViewAttribute="Category"
Operator="="
Conjunction="AND"
Required="Optional"
UpperColumns="1">
<CompOper Name="Category" ToDo="-1" Oper="NOTEQUALTO"/>
<CompOper Name="Category" ToDo="-1" Oper="NOTBETWEEN"/>
<CompOper Name="Category" ToDo="-1" Oper="CONTAINS"/>
</ViewCriteriaItem>
