ADF SelectAll/DeselectAll Issue

Question

Hi All,
Iam having issue with SelectAll/DeselectAll in ADF Tree. Following sample code for jspx and Managed Bean.
<af:tree value="#{bindings.ParentMDTopic1.treeModel}" var="node"
selectionListener="#{bindings.ParentMDTopic1.treeModel.makeCurrent}"
rowSelection="single" id="t1" partialTriggers="sbc2"
binding="#{pageFlowScope.mBean.treeProp}">
<f:facet name="nodeStamp">
<af:group id="g1">
<af:selectBooleanCheckbox label="Label 1" id="sbc2"
value="#{node.checkboxFlag}"
autoSubmit="true"
valueChangeListener="#{pageFlowScope.mBean.checkBoxChange}"/>
<af:outputText value="#{node.DocGuid}" id="ot1"/>
</af:group>
</f:facet>
</af:tree>
Bean:
public void checkBoxChange(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent) {
valueChangeEvent.getComponent().getParent().getChildren();
DCIteratorBinding dcIb = ADFUtils.findIterator("ParentMDTopic1Iterator");
ParentMDTopicVORowImpl parent = (ParentMDTopicVORowImpl)dcIb.getCurrentRow();
RowIterator ri = parent.getLeafMDTopic();
if (((Boolean)valueChangeEvent.getOldValue()) != null) {
Boolean check = (Boolean)valueChangeEvent.getNewValue();
if (check == true) {
parent.setcheckboxConfirmedStatus("Y");
} else {
parent.setcheckboxConfirmedStatus("N");
selectItems.add(new SelectItem(ri.getCurrentRow()));
if(ri.hasNext()){
updateCheckboxStatus(ri, check);
else{
parent.setcheckboxConfirmedStatus("N");
refreshSelectedRows();
dcIb.executeQuery();
public void updateCheckboxStatus(RowIterator ri, Boolean check){
while(ri.hasNext()){
LeafMDTopicVORowImpl leaf = (LeafMDTopicVORowImpl)ri.next();
if (check == true) {
leaf.setcheckboxConfirmedStatus("Y");
} else {
leaf.setcheckboxConfirmedStatus("N");
selectItems.add(new SelectItem(ri.getCurrentRow()));
RowIterator ri2 = leaf.getDocGuidLeafMDTopic();
if(ri2.hasNext()){
updateCheckboxStatus(ri2,check);
private void refreshSelectedRows() {
getSelectedRows().clear();
DCIteratorBinding it = ADFUtils.findIterator("ParentMDTopic1Iterator");
RowSetIterator rit = it.getRowSetIterator();
rit.reset();
if (rit.first() != null) {
Row r = rit.first();
if (r.getAttribute("checkboxFlag") != null) {
makeRowSelected(r);
while (rit.hasNext()) {
Row r = rit.next();
if (r.getAttribute("checkboxFlag") != null) {
makeRowSelected(r);
private void makeRowSelected(Row r) {
Boolean selected = (Boolean)r.getAttribute("checkboxFlag");
if (selected) {
ArrayList keyList = new ArrayList();
if(r.getAttribute("DocGuid") != null){
keyList.add(r);
getSelectedRows().add(keyList);
Iam strugling since few days on this. Could you please some one on this
Thanks in advance,
Samba.

HI Timo,
Please find the below information.
which jdev version you are using as the solution might depend on it.
Ans: JDev 11.1.1.5.0
So, what is the problem?
Ans: We have created a tree structure with checkbox option using self -reference VOs & ViewLinks.Problem is unable to achieve Select All/Deselect All functionality. And also, If user click on any node, then all the chield nodes(till leaf level) should be in checked status. similarly for deselect option. Only the one node is updating with status. Rest all are not updating in the with check box status.
What have you tried so far?
Ans: As of now, I am trying to achive select functionality by seleting top level nodes.There might be more than one node at top level, if I click on any one on of top nodes then all the sublevels should be check status.
Have you drugs the code?
Ans: I tried to debug the code with print statements. I've created two transient attributes with boolean & string types. Boolean value will be calculted based on String value using EL. Some how, I couldn't able to achive the required functionality.
It would help if you fishing your code when posting it here. Read the FAQ link on the top right of the page.
I've gone through OTN forum to find a thred with similar issue. I found few threds with similar issue but still iam facing issue.
Please let me know, if you still need more information.
It would be really helpful, if you help on this.
Thanks,
Samba
