ADF Faces tag: af:chooseDate

How can I get the value of ADF Faces tag:< af:chooseDate > ?
Thanks.

chooseDate has to be bound to a selectInputDate which you then get the value of. The binding is done via the ID of the chooseDate. Something like this:
<af:chooseDate id="datePicker"
               maxValue="#{blog.lastEntry}"
               minValue="#{blog.firstEntry}"/>
<af:selectInputDate id="filterDate"
               value="#{blog.focusDate}"
               chooseId="datePicker"/>

It think it should be possible to layout the page with HTML template text and use ADF Faces tags.

As of EA12 (and EA13) <afh:body> is what is known as a "rendersChildren" tag. It needs to do so in order to support partial-page rendering This means that template text inside it needs to be wrapped inside <f:verbatim>.
For later releases of ADF Faces, I've filed an enhancement request to loosen up this restriction for <afh:body>.

ADF Faces: is mixing JSF RI and ADF Faces tags supported?

Hi,
I'm looking at ADF Faces as a future possibility for our application that is currently based on JSF RI.
When looking at the ADF Faces demo it strikes me that all pages are almost completely built up from ADF Faces tags.
For instance
af:form
af:commandButton
af:inputText
are used instead of the equivalent core jsf tags f:form, f:commandButton and f:inputText
I'm wondering if this is mandatory if we would like to use some ADF Faces components mixed within our existing application.
In other words: are ADF Faces tags supported in the environment of conventional JSF tags? And mixing ADF Faces JSF components with JSF components by other vendors?
Another thing that strikes me is that pages are constructed using ADF Faces tags for any and all markup content.
I guess this is meant to support several different clients (normal browser applications, mobile clients, voice activation over telephone) using different renderers.
In my experience abstracting markup this way inherently means loss of control over the exact markup that is sent to the client. This is not acceptable for all projects and customers.
Is embedding ADF Faces tags within template HTML, within f:verbatim tags or not, supported?
Regards,
Joost de Vries

You absolutely can mix JSF RI and ADF Faces tags. This is very much supported! You can swap in <h:form> and <h:commandButton> and <h:inputText>. Our versions support some features that the JSF tags do not, as described in our release notes.
Your point about using tags to produce all markup is a very cogent one. For some projects, absolute control over HTML will be a necessary requirement, so we do support that style of development. But we believe strongly that the future does not lie in constant handcoding of HTML, but instead in building more powerful, flexible, and reusable components and assembling those into pages. This was one of the themes of a talk I gave with two coworkers at this past JavaOne.

Can't find Javadoc for ADF Faces components

I have tried to locate javadoc documentation for ADF Faces Java classes, but am not able to find anything. For example, the ADF Faces tag documentation for af:convertNumber has the following comment:
"Further more information see javadoc for oracle.adf.view.faces.converter.NumberConverter"
But I cannot find this javadoc anywhere on the OTN documentation site.

Pls Check this link

ADF Faces showDetailItem seems to "load" child elements twice on tab select

Problem Summary:
Child elements of showDetailItem are being loaded/executed twice. The parent of the showDetailItem is a showOneTab, and the child of showDetailItem is an af:objectImage, which calls a servlet I have written that outputs an image.
The problem I am having is that when I click on a tab (showDetailItem) my servlet is called twice. It is as if the af:objectImage line of my JSP is executed twice.
I have proven this with breakpoints in the servlet and printing a message to the console. The doGet() method of my servlet is called twice. Using breakpoints in the JSP I see the JSP is executed/read only once.
Details:
I am requesting help with this problem as I cannot solve it one my own. I have tried the following, but have had no success.
1. Searched the web for a similar problem.
2. Searched this forum for a similar problem.
3. Consulted the ADF Developer Guide version 10.1.3.0
4. Upgraded my version of JDeveloper to 10.1.3.2.0, which has ADF Faces (oracle.faces.dt) version 10.1.3.40.66.
5. Debugging with print statements and stepping through JSP and servlet code.
6. Created the simplest JSP possible that I could still produce the problem with.
The Scenario:
My goal is to use the ADF Faces showOneTab and showDetailItem tags to create two tabbed panels that will contain a blank tab (tab one) and an image (on tab 2).
I have written a servlet, BrowserImage, which takes and ID as a parameter retrieves a BLOB from view object and then outputs a jpeg image to the browser. This is done by using the af:objectImage tag and specifying my servlet in the source parameter. The image is displayed fine, but I don't want the servlet to be called twice for performance reasons.
Here is the simplest JSP that contains the problem.
Note: I tried to simplify even more by calling the servlet in different ways (jsp:include etc..), but was unable to produce the problem. I think it is key that I call the servlet using an ADF Faces tag (af:objectImage).

    </afh:body>
</afh:html>
</f:view>Note: The Java Script code included in the JSP is used to get an application module instance and pass it to my servlet in the session scope, so my servlet can access a view object, which contains the BLOB to output. I thought I should explain this as it may look confusing.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

I don't think adding a flag to my servlet will work. I left out some details in the original posting that will likely make the flag solution unusable.
It is true that when I click on a tab that my servlet is called twice. My main goal is to ensure that the BrowserImage servlet only called when truly needed. The part I left out of the original posting is that if I click on a tab for the first time I can see my messages in the console indicating it was called twice.
. BrowserImage severlet called (doGet)
. BrowserImage servlet called (doGet)
The key is if I click on the tab again I only see the message appear once.
. BrowserImage severlet called (doGet)
At first I thought this was the correct behavior, but I now feel this is wrong as I think the image is being cached locally on the client browser by ADF Faces, so the first call to BrowserImage is not made, but for some reason on the second "load" of the panel the BrowserImage servlet is called.
To summarize the new details, I still think the showDetailItem is "loading" twice, but BrowserImage is only being called once, because the first loading used a locally cached image. This is my best guess, I did not prove this 100%. I did prove that the image is shown on the page before my servlet outputs it this made me start thinking about the client cache. Also I think it is an ADF Faces specific cache because if I use the "img" tag I don't think caching is used and the image is output by the call to my servlet. I don't want to use img for two reasons, 1 I would d like to use the client cache, 2 the img tag will not stay inside the showDetailItem, showDetail Item needs af: components as children it seems.
So the reason I feel this problem can't be solved with a flag is because I think the image will be cached on the client side and if the showDetailItem is loaded twice it seems my servlet is called once, but it was not required to be called to render the image. I can't use the concept of checking for the servlet being called by the same session in very quick succession, because the real problem I am trying to solve is the servlet should not be called at all, if the client cache had been used.
Perhaps there is a way for my servlet to determine if the client cache was used, but I have no idea how.
I should also point out I am displaying images in a table instead of a showOneTab using the same servlet and technique and the client cache is always used correctly, the BrowserImage is only called if the image is not cached on the client. This is why I think this is a showOneTab problem.
Sorry for leaving out these details, but I did not want to confuse the original posting with too much info. I figured if the tab was only loaded once, the cached image would be used and all would be good.
Again if you can provide more help I really appreciate it.

Where is adf-faces-demo.war?

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know where I can find and download adf-faces-demo.war that was mentioned in the following page
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/jdeveloper/10.1.3/state/content/navId.4/navSetId._/vtTopicFile.jsf_apps%7Cadfcreate%7Caf_ademowar%7Ehtml/
I read the Jdev documentation and still don't get the idea how af:progressIndicator work with af:poll and my long running process. I have a button on a jsp that runs a long process via calling of stored procedure. As this DB process usually takes long time to complete, the middle tier will be time-out before it. How can I use progressIndicator and poll to keep user notified and keep the session active ?

Hi Bonnie,
You can download it from this page:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/10g/adfjsf/how-to-adf-faces-10gjdev.htm
Under the heading 'Creating an "ADF Faces " Library and registering the ADF Faces tag libraries', point 1) Download the adf-faces-ea10.zip from here. Unzip this file to a separate directory such as d:\adffaces. This directory will contain the subdirectories docs, lib, and src, and the adf-faces-demo.zip. The lib directory will contain the required jar files and tld (tag library descriptors) files for JDeveloper to work with ADF Faces.
Hope this help.
Regards.

ADF Faces and BC4J integration

If I drag and drop my BC4J View Objects from the data control palette, Jdeveloper 10G generates an input form using tags from the struts TLD (WEB-INF/struts-html.tld).
How can I configurate JDeveloper to use the ADF Faces tags in this case?
Now JDeveloper generates for an attribute in an input form this code:
<html:text property="CodigoTipoCliente"/>
I want to generate something like this:
<af:inputText property=âxxâ> where xx is the attribute name for the BC4J.
Is this possible?
If it not possible, can I integrate ADF Development to JSF?
thanks

i have a requirement where i need to have Java Beans as Model Layer in ADF Faces.
i have executed a project in ADF UIX with Java Beans Model Layer it works fine.
but when i tried the same in ADF Faces like i have created some java beans as Data controls and drag and drop them onto the JSP page which in turn convert into <af:inputText value="#{bindings.lastName.inputValue}"
label="Last Name"
required="#{bindings.lastName.mandatory}"
columns="#{bindings.lastName.displayWidth}"
binding="#{backing_inputPage.inputText2}"
id="inputText2">
<af:validator binding="#{bindings.lastName.validator}"/>
</af:inputText> but these fields are always shown as ReadOnly fields even though i set the readOnly attribute to false and by which i cannot insert any values into it on runtime
but where as when i convert them into normal JSF HTML tags then i can enter values and even pass values between pages but WHY DO I NEED TO DO THIS
is the ADF FACES JAVA MODEL LAYER IS NOT YET integrated or what?
please reply or clarify

ADF Faces: af:column and styleClass

The styleClass attribute of the af:column tag does not seem to have any effect. Do styleClass and inlineStyle only work with certain ADF Faces tags?
For example,
<af:column styleClass="headerXXSmall">
<f:facet name="header"><af:outputText value="First Name"/></f:facet>
<af:commandLink action="#{tabularBB.editLinkAction}">
<af:outputText value="#{row.firstName}"/>
</af:commandLink>
</af:column>
produces the following html. My "headerXXSmall" style class is ignored in favor of the ADF "xd" style class.
<td headers="M__Ida" class="x1l x4x">
<span class="headerXXSmall">
<a onclick="submitForm('_id3',1,{source:'_id3:_id4:0:_id8'});return false;" href="#" class="xd">Fred
</a>
</span>
</td>

Hallo,
Did anyone find ever a solution for that?
I have tried it with the following:
<af:column headerText="#{bindings.findAllFonds1.labels.quSt}" sortProperty="quSt" sortable="false" styleClass="myStyle">
... looking at the generated HTML, I don't see anything.
Thx, Willi

Where is ADF FACES HTML tags in JDeveloper 11g?

I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.2.0 for my project. I remembered in 10g I have a list of HTML tags such as, afh:tableLayout, afh:cellFormat, etc under ADF FACES HTML package. However, in new JDeveloper 11g, I could only see ADF Cores and there is no ADF Faces HTML tags. Are they still available in 11g? If so, how I could install those tags in JDeveloper 11g?

Thanks for your quick response. Actually I am converting a Trinidad project into ADF 11g. In old one, I used a lot of tableLayout components. It seems impossible for me to convert all those tableLayout into ADF 11g layout components in a short period of time.

SelectOne... and SelectMany... tags in ADF Faces

Everybody:
Are there any plans to add SelectOneTable/SelectOneTree and SelectManyTable/SelectManyTree tags to ADF? Has anyone done their own?
Jeff

The SelectOneXXX and SelectManyXXX components in Faces and ADF Faces are used to capture user input values for the purposes of conversion and validation, and finally to update the model with the new value.
In a typical user interface, tree and table components often also have a concept of selection, which might be single, multiple, contiguous or non-contiguous. This is a different concept of selection.
We already have a selectionState attribute on the UIXTable component, and are looking at adding first class selection (table, tree) and expansion (tree) listeners.
Kind Regards.

ADF Faces components with HTML and DIV tags

Hello all,
I want to know if there a way to place a <div> tag within an adf faces component tag? eg. <af:table> tag and insert the div tag between </af:column>? I tried doing this by placing the div tag between columns and also enclosing it with verbatim tags, but a parsing exception occurs during run time. The purpose of this is to create frozen columns for horizontal scrolling.
The code looks like:
<af:table ...>
<af:column headerText= ...>
<f:facet name= ...>
<h:outputText value= .../>
</f:facet>
</af:column>
<f:verbatim>
//DIV TAG
</f:verbatim>
<af:column headerText= ...>
<f:facet name= ...>
<h:outputText value= .../>
</f:facet>
</af:column>
<af:column headerText= ...>
<f:facet name= ...>
<h:outputText value= .../>
</f:facet>
</af:column>
<f:verbatim>
//END DIV TAG
</f:verbatim>
</af:table>
Thanks in advance.

Customizing ADF Faces Look & Feel. Some questions & suggestions

Hi everybody,
We are developing an application with ADF Faces using JHeadStart. For the moment, I am studying the way we must modify the JHS templates to adapt each element to our needs.
As it's told in the JHeadStart Developer's Guide, there are two ways to customize Look & Feel:
1) Modifying the templates
2) ADF Skinning
I'm using both methods, but I feel that thay are not good enough to adapt the L&F to our customer requirements.
My main problem now is in the ADF Table customization. I want to use ADF Table because it offers us a lot of features that are not in the jsf table (the selection column, the table overflow...), and is very usefull combined with the generated JHS code. But at the same time, it doesn't offer a lot of functionality in the look & feel customization. Using JSF Table, I can set the CSS style for headers, rows, columns, the table, I can set the border, cellspacing and cellpadding. But I cannot do
any of these thing (or at least, I don't see how) with the ADF Table.
Our customer (a government) have a strict definition of the look & feel of his web applications. They want we use their CSS styles definition file, so they can modify at once the Look & Feel of all their applications. Modifying the L&F through skinning generate other styles, not use the style classes in our CSS (o so I think).
So, the questions:
1) There is any way to set the suitable styles for the ADF Table components (headers, rows)?
1bis) Why, If I have defined a new skin, with only just a few selectors, some styles from oracle are applied? Maybe because the render kit in the 'adf-skins.xml' is "oracle.adf.desktop"? If it is true, how can I make that they are not used, I must implement a render kit or can I use another existent?
2) Can I decide how looks the select column (for example a button instead of a radio button)? Can I decide where does it goes (right or left)?
3) There is any way to hidden the text Show/Hide of the showDetail in the table (the tableOverflow), as I can change the icons through skinning? If it is not possible, How can I overwrite the text. I need it in Catalan, but it is shown in English for this locale. Where is the message bundle I should overwrite?
4) There is any way to force a tree to start fully expanded?
5) There is anywhere documentation about the javascript functions used in ADF and their meaning? I think for example in the previous question. If I knew which javascript function I should call for expand the tree and its parameters, I could put the call in the onload event of the body.
6) I use a selectInputDate. I have skinned the launch-icon, and I would like to do a similar thing in the chooseDate that is opened in a new window. But It seems not to be affected for my skinning directives (if I put a chooseDate in the same page, its L&F follow the skinning rules I've defined). I don't know if this dialog is an ADF feature or a JHS generated feature.
7) There is any way to keep unmodified the id I've choosed for a component? (I mean, an inputText with id="hello" in a form with id="form" will have in the HTML an id = "form:hello", but I would like it to be simply 'hello')
8) How can I control the position and the size of a dialog (the chooseDate dialog or a dialog I've created)? In the cases I've been testing, it seems the dialog is forced to resize depending on the content. I would like to know if I can establish a fixed size.
9) There is any way to open a non-modal dialog? (which I could keep open at the same time that another instance of the same dialog)
For the moment, I think I have no more question. But give me time.... :-D
The suggestion I've to do is basically more flexible components for a better customization (for example, the styles settings I've talked about previously). ADF components are nice and powerful, but I think they should generate pages that follow the tendencies in the web development: tableless pages (I cannot understand the utility of the objectSpacer existing the margins), use of CSS for layout...
Any answer, comment or suggestion will be welcome.
Carles.

I have been able to make the UIX 2.2 and ADF Faces LAF look near identical by updating the oracle-desktop.xss file within UIX 2.2 as follows

<style name="DarkAccentBackground">

<property name="background-color">#d2d8b0</property>
</style>
There are still some differences:
1) A black line appears on the ADF Faces on the 'menu1' facet selected tab below the text. DON'T KNOW HOW TO REMOVE THIS FROM ADF Faces or add it to UIX 2.2!!!
2) In UIX 2.2 a bulleted list uses the HTML <li> tag. In ADF Faces it doesn't use the HTML <li> tag rather it constructs the bulleted list using lower level HTML tags with the 'bullet' becoming an image, in my browser this means the disc is smaller in Faces. The motivation for this change I think is explained via this post. Since I have no control over how this specific HTML tag is rendered it forces me to replace the /adf/images/bltdscn.gif file in adf-faces-impl.jar with a larger disc!

May update this again if there are other things I notice.

How to develop web app by ADF Faces rich web client ?

i want developer web app by adf face rich
but have not adf rich tag library in jdev 10.1.3
how to develop by adf rich?

Hi,
don't know what you mean by ADF Faces rich web client, but if you mean our Ajax component set, then this is not yet available outside of Oracle. If you mean ADF Faces as we have it in JDeveloper 10.1.3, create a JSF page and step through the creation process, toggle the ADF Faces libraries to make ADF Faces available
