Answer 1

As I understand you have 2 JPanels implemented as 2 separate Java classes and you invoke <tt>panel.setBindingContext(bctx)</tt> on each of them. This method binds the corresponding panel to its PageDef. If you use only one common PageDef instance then one of your panels will remain unbound. In order to resolve this problem you have to either combine your panels in a single JPanel or to provide a separate PageDef instance for each of them. You should either define a separate PageDef or you can try to duplicate PageDef's declaration in DataBindings.cpx (without duplicating the PageDef's XML file). If you choose the second one then open the <tt>DataBindings.cpx</tt> file and copy the corresponding line, for example:
<pageDefinitionUsages>
  <page id="MyPanelPageDef"       path="view.myproject.pageDefs.MyPanelPageDef"/>
  <page id="MySecondPanelPageDef" path="view.myproject.pageDefs.MyPanelPageDef"/>
</pageDefinitionUsages>In this way you will declare a new PageDef instance without duplicating the PageDef's file. Then go to the beginning of the 2nd panel's Java class and set the new PageDef ID into it, for example replace the line:
private String pageDef = "MyPanelPageDef"; with private String pageDef = "MySecondPanelPageDef"; (Of course, these names are just sample ones and you should set the corrent ones).
