Af:inputListOfValues - bug?

Question

Hi,
I have created a List of Values in the model layer of my application and have found a few problems with the component af:inputListOfValues.
My create Organisation popup contains the following code:
<af:popup id="editOrgPopup" contentDelivery="lazyUncached">
            <af:dialog type="cancel" title="Edit Organisation">
              <af:panelFormLayout inlineStyle="width:400px;">
                <af:inputText value="#{bindings.OrganisationCode.inputValue}"
                              label="Code"
                              columns="30"
                              required="#{bindings.OrganisationCode.hints.mandatory}"
                              maximumLength="#{bindings.OrganisationCode.hints.precision}"
                              shortDesc="#{bindings.OrganisationCode.hints.tooltip}">
                  <f:validator binding="#{bindings.OrganisationCode.validator}"/>
                </af:inputText>
                <af:inputText value="#{bindings.FullName.inputValue}"
                              label="Name"
                              required="#{bindings.FullName.hints.mandatory}"
                              columns="60"
                              maximumLength="#{bindings.FullName.hints.precision}"
                              shortDesc="#{bindings.FullName.hints.tooltip}">
                  <f:validator binding="#{bindings.FullName.validator}"/>
                </af:inputText>
                <af:inputListOfValues id="organisationTypeId"
                                      popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.OrganisationType.hints.label}"
                                      value="#{bindings.OrganisationType.inputValue}"
                                      label="Type"
                                      model="#{bindings.OrganisationType.listOfValuesModel}"
                                      required="#{bindings.OrganisationType.hints.mandatory}"
                                      columns="30"
                                      shortDesc="#{bindings.OrganisationType.hints.tooltip}">
                  <f:validator binding="#{bindings.OrganisationType.validator}"/>
                </af:inputListOfValues>
              </af:panelFormLayout>
              <f:facet name="buttonBar">
                <af:commandButton text="Save"
                                  action="#{Org.saveUpdatedOrgForm}"/>
              </f:facet>
            </af:dialog>
          </af:popup>This popup is displayed upon clicking on a button.
The issue I have are as follows:
*When I enter text in the Organisation Type field (without using the LOV) then the model is updated, but the table behind the scenes is not refreshed.
*If I set the attrivbute "Query Automitcally" in the model layer then any text taken from the input text field seems to affect the query run by the LOV and I end
up with duplicate rows and 'odd' data being returned in the LOV.
The bindings for my page are as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<pageDefinition xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adfm/uimodel"
                version="11.1.1.51.56"
                id="OrgPageDef"
                Package="com.symmetry.view.pageDefs"
                ControllerClass="#{Org}">
  <parameters/>
  <executables>
    <iterator Binds="OrgVO" RangeSize="25"
              DataControl="ADF002AppModuleDataControl" id="OrgVOIterator"/>
    <searchRegion Binds="OrgVOIterator" Criteria=""
                  Customizer="oracle.jbo.uicli.binding.JUSearchBindingCustomizer"
                  id="OrgVOQuery"/>
  </executables>
  <bindings>
    <tree IterBinding="OrgVOIterator" id="OrgVO">
      <nodeDefinition DefName="com.symmetry.model.vo.OrgVO">
        <AttrNames>
          <Item Value="OrganisationCode"/>
          <Item Value="FullName"/>
          <Item Value="OrganisationType"/>
        </AttrNames>
      </nodeDefinition>
    </tree>
    <action id="CreateInsert"
            InstanceName="ADF002AppModuleDataControl"
            DataControl="ADF002AppModuleDataControl"
            RequiresUpdateModel="true"
            Action="createInsertRow"/>
    <attributeValues IterBinding="OrgVOIterator" id="OrganisationCode">
      <AttrNames> <Item Value="OrganisationCode"/> </AttrNames>
    </attributeValues>
    <attributeValues IterBinding="OrgVOIterator" id="FullName">
      <AttrNames> <Item Value="FullName"/> </AttrNames>
    </attributeValues>
    <listOfValues StaticList="false"
                  IterBinding="OrgVOIterator"
                  Uses="LOV_OrganisationType"
                  id="OrganisationType"/>
    <methodAction id="saveUpdatedOrg"
                  InstanceName="ADF002AppModuleDataControl.dataProvider"
                  DataControl="ADF002AppModuleDataControl"
                  RequiresUpdateModel="true"
                  Action="invokeMethod"
                  MethodName="saveUpdatedOrg"
                  IsViewObjectMethod="false"/>
  </bindings>
</pageDefinition>Any help is greatly appreciated as having functioning LOV's is crucial to our App!
I am using JDeveloper 11g.

Hi,
if this turns out to be a blocking issue, then I suggest to not wait for the community to come up with a solution but address this with customer support. This way, in case you hit a bug, you are also able to know when its being resolved.
