Any example for (bounded task flow) popup return value

I need to know what is the type of popup RETURN VALUE
any example will be great

I want to get parameter form popup bounded task flow with NO page fragment (task flow 1) to jsff page from another task flow with page fragment(task flow 2)
I applied the scenario exist in URL's in first replay and it didn't work
when I select task flow 1 from inside task flow 2 diagram I found in its inspector page filed called "Dialog Return Value"
how can I use this field

Menu for bounded task flow

Hi experts,
can we create menu for bounded task flow?.....we can do it in a unbounded task flow by using "create or update menu"......

Edited by: pms on Jan 6, 2012 5:31 AM

Hi,
well, if you want a menu that is owned by the bounded task flow, then you can use trains, as explained in this article
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/93-differentuifortrainstops-1413952.pdf
Just bind a menu to the train model (which afaik, extends the menu model)

How to create a page-definition for bounded task-flow?

I should be able to create a page definition which declare all bindings required for a bounded task flow.
How do I do it in JDeveloper 11.1.1.2?
How do I navigate to the page definition when I am in the bounded task flow "Diagram tab"?

I found out the following:
1. To create a page-definition file for a bounded task flow
Right click on the "Default" activity (not a view activity) of the bounded task flow, select "Create Page Definition" from the context menu.
2. To go the page-definition file for a bounded task flow
Right click on the "Default" activity (not a view activity) of the bounded task flow, select "Go to Page Definition" from the context menu.
My new question is:
In JDeveloper 11.1.1.2, how do I create page-definition for a bounded-task-flow if all activities are view activities (page fragments) ?
How does JDeveloper I want to create page-definition for the task-flow instead of create page-definition of the page fragment or the page?

Best practice question for Bounded task flows

We are new to Jdeveloper/ADF and I was wondering if we should always try to use a bounded task flow for our applications... is this considered the best way to develop an app? even the small single page ones?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
let me turn teh question around: How many tools do you have at home beside of a hammer ? In other words, its the problem you need to solve (and use cases are problems) that should determine the use of bounded task flows and its granularity. Note that for each use case the bounded task flow makes a good candidate for delivering it. Doesn't mean that every single page needs to go into its own task flow. For general bounded best practices have a look here

Where should backing bean for bounded-task-flow be declared?

I have a bounded-task-flow that is used inside a dynamic region.
I declared a managed bean to be used by activities (method/view) using the "backingBean" scope managed bean.
There are two possible places that I can register the managed bean:
1. adfc-config.xml
2. the bounded-task-flow-definition.xml
What are the differences between declaring the "backingBean" scope bean in "adfc-config.xml" and in the bounded-task-flow definition?
What is the best practice for registering "backingBean" scope bean?
If I understand correctly, registering the bean in adfc-config.xml is for one or more bounded-task-flow that use the same Bean class for instantiating their own backing bean. If the backing bean java class is only use by specific bounded-task-flow then it should make no difference to register the bean in either xml files.
Am I correct?

It should be registered within the bounded task flow for a couple reasons:
1) Help maintain the encapsulation of the bounded task flow for reuse
2) Managed bean definition metadata residing in adfc-config.xml or bootstrap configuration file will be preloaded when the ADF application is started. The actual managed beans will be instantiated the first time they are referenced. Therefore, to avoid the preload place them in the bounded task flow.
thanks.

Bounded task flow task-flow-return to unbounded task flow throws 404

I'm using an unbounded task flow (adfc-config.xml) to call a bounded task flow (task-flow-definition). All navigation in the bounded task flow works well, data is committing. (I am omitting many of the pages from the bounded task flow to keep this post shorter. If I can get this first page to return to the unbounded task flow, I can copy it forward.)
My problem is when running from the unbounded task flow, I cannot seem to configure the bounded task flow to return to the login page inside the unbounded task flow, which called it, without a 404 error.

Is the task-flow-return the ONLY way to pass values from the bounded to the unbounded task flow?
Or is it possible to use a control-flow-case inside the bounded task flow like this, that refers to the unbounded task flow to navigate from the bounded back to the unbounded task flow?

I've tried every conceivable way to navigate from the bounded task flow, to the unbounded task flow, and the only consistent thing I receive is a 404. Is this a security issue?

Call adf bounded task flow library programatically

I have a master application where I have one page with a region where all the task flows are going to be aggregated as tabs. Each task flow represents a module and is in a separate application. I add the adf library to the master application for bounded task flow "Module1".
This is my code that works if the bounded task flow is in the master application:
TaskFlowBindingAttributes tfAttr = new TaskFlowBindingAttributes();
tfAttr.setId("Module1");
tfAttr.setTaskFlowId(new TaskFlowId("/WEB-INF/module1.xml","module1"));
taskFlowList.add(0, tfAttr);
List<UIComponent> tabs = this.getPanelTab().getChildren();
for (int i = 0; i < tabs.size(); i++) {
RichShowDetailItem tab = (RichShowDetailItem)tabs.get(i);
tab.setDisclosed(false);
RichShowDetailItem tab = (RichShowDetailItem)tabs.get(index);
tab.setDisclosed(true);
But if bounded tak flow is in separate application the code doesn't work, it shows a blank page and i have defined a page with some panel boxes. So how shoud i call the bounded task flow programatically??.
I am working with Jdeveloper 11.1.2.3.0, thank you

Yes I see it in the component palette. I found the problem, I see in the task-flow-registry.xml that the path for the bounded task flow is: "module1.xml" and not "WEB-INF/module1.xml". What sould be the correct path?.

How to call page in adfc-config from bounded-task-flow return?

Hello everybody, I am using JDeveloper 11.1.2.3.0
I have in my adfc-config some pages and one bounded-task-flow (with pages, not page fragments). I call the bounded task flow from one of my pages but I want that when I return from the bounded-task-flow to redirect the page to another page rather than the page that called it. I dont know if this can be done, but do you have any idea on how to achieve something like this?
Thank you

Nested AM for Imported Bounded Task Flows - jdev 11.1.2.3 redhat 5.8

Hello:
Examples below all are Fusion ADF Web Apps.
subsystem1 = ss1 creates adflib1 with bounded task flow = tf1
subsystem2 = ss2 creates adflib2 with bounded task flow = tf2
Master system imports adflib1 and adflib2
In Master how can I create a app module that nests app modules from adflib1 and adflib2?
In Master, on a single page with splitter, I drop tf1 on one side and tf2 on the other side. I make a data change to tf1 and data change to tf2 and then commit. Changes are not commited on tf2. How can I make it to commit on both task flows 1 and 2?
I tried to create an app module in master and nest app module from ss1 and ss2 under that, but still changes are not committed on tf2.
Any ideas?
Thanks much.

Data Source for reused bounded task flow

Hi,
I am using JDeveloper 11.1.2.4.0.
I have a project from which I exported a bounded task flow to be used in other projects.
When I include that bounded task flow in a separate project, its data source does not appear in the Databindings.cpx of the project in which it is reused.
How will the data source for the reused task flow be set in the separate project?

I have a project from which I exported a bounded task flow to be used in other projects
By that you mean that you have crated a adfLibrary from the the task flow?
When I include that bounded task flow in a separate project
By that you mean you have added the adfLib created above to the other project from the resource palette, right click and 'add to project'?
How will the data source for the reused task flow be set in the separate project?
Once you have added the project you refresh the data control and the other task flow should show up.

UI Shell - how to allow ADF Library Bounded Task Flow to close itself

Hi Richard
Further to my other post, we're having lots of fun with the UI Shell, it's making mockups very easy.
Question for you though based around the functionality defined in the UI Shell whitepaper. Say we've created our UI Shell application, and rather than wanting to create the bounded task flows in the app (ie.first, second, third), we create them as standalone bounded task flows deployed to ADF Libraries, and imported into our app separately.
In the UI Shell examples bounded task flows are opened & closed via the UI Shell's own components (say the navigation page items or toolbar buttons), that call the methods in the Launcher bean (_launchActivity & closeCurrentActivity). It's fairly simple to rewrite the launcher helper methods in the launcher bean to call an imported ADF Library bounded task flow to open it as an activity, just referencing the correct task-flow.xml file.
However as you know a bounded task flow has a "Default Activity" entry point and one or more "Task Flow Return" exit points. What I haven't been able to work out is how when the bounded task flow exits via a task flow return, can we call the closeCurrentActivity method in the Launcher bean? The UI Shell code examples demonstrate closing a bounded task flow by menu options/or similar outside the bounded task flow in the UI Shell, but it would seem reasonable if the bounded task flow exited via a "Task Flow Return" we should be also able to close the activity tab too.
(....and as extension, before we even do that potentially call the checkState/isDirty() method to stop the user closing the activity too, but again driven by the bounded task flow attempting to exit).
I could imagine inserting code into the bounded task flow finalizer to close the activity tab, but this pushes the UI Shell tab activity management logic into our standalone ADF Library bounded task flows which isn't ideal, especially if we want to later reuse them in another app which doesn't use the UI Shell.
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks & regards,
CM.

And we're back again.... what's a couple months between friends?
So it turns out after testing our app (d@mn, so close) that we've hit a bug with this approach.
Our current app allows one BTF to be open in the UI Shell at any one time. Our menu options automatically open one BTF at a time by the user (max one open), and close the previous BTF. However we have some "special" BTFs that require the user to explicitly close the BTF, which in turn makes use of the regionNavigationListener solution I described earlier in this post.
However we discovered a bug when we do a complete cycle of the 15 embedded regions within the UI Shell.
Say we:
1) Open a normal BTF in region 0
2) Open another normal BTF in region 1 (our solution automatically closes the previous BTF)
3) We then open another BTF (again the previous BTF is closed) in region 2, yet this a "special" BTF requiring the user explicitly to close it. Upon the user closing the BTF - this results in the regionNavigationListener being called and the removeTab() method called to close down the BTF in the UI Shell
4) The user then open/closes multiple normal BTFs, one by one, rotating through regions 3, 4, 5 .... eventually back to 1 again
5) Then the bug occurs - on opening any BTF back in region 2 (as part of the complete cycle of all regions), the tab for the region 2 opens, correct title, and via debugging the Tab.class has all the right settings including taskFlowId, but the tab is incorrectly empty
doh!
I've managed to track a symptom of the problem down that may explain what's happening.
Each time a tab is rendered with a BTF, the Tab classes getBinding() method returns a reference to the binding required for the current BTF. However for some reason on the complete cycle, for "r2" it returns the binding for the previously user-closed BTF from step 3 above, even though we called the TabContext.removeTab() method.
What I haven't been able to work out is how the bindings get turned on/off dynamically for each BTF being invoked. Presumably for some reason on step 3, the BTF's bindings aren't being correctly removed from r2 even though we called TabContext.removeTab().
If anybody has any brain waves about what's going on and how to fix this problem, your help appreciated.
Regards,
CM.

How to pass request parameter to bounded task flow?

Hi, this is probably a simple question, but just not sure how this should be done. I have a .jspx that contains an ADF region for a bounded task flow. The task flow has a required input parameter, e.g. objectId. I want to be able to pass a request parameter that's sent into the .jspx page to the task flow. For example, Test.jspx?id=123 should pass 123 for the objectId input parameter of the task flow.
When adding the ADF region to the page, the Edit Task Flow Binding dialog prompted for a value for the objectId input parameter. I wasn't sure what I can put for the value so I just hard-coded something like 123 for now. So in the page definition file, sometihng like the following got added:
    <taskFlow id="testtaskflow1"
              taskFlowId="/WEB-INF/taskflow/test/test-task-flow.xml#test-task-flow"
              activation="deferred"
              xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/controller/binding">
      <parameters>
        <parameter id="objectId" value="123"/>
      </parameters>
    </taskFlow>I'm wondering is there some EL expression I can use for the parameter value that gets the value of the id request parameter passed into the .jspx? Thanks.

you have to use it like.. #{bean.idValue} and in the getter of the id Value use it like
private int idValue;
//setter
//getter
public int getIdValue(){
          HttpServletRequest request =
            (HttpServletRequest)FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequest();
        int id = request.getParameter("id");
       return id;
}

Best Practice - Bounded Task Flows, Regions and Nested Application Modules

Using JDev 11.1.1.3; understand that it's generally considered good practice to just have 1 root application module servicing model content / services for each page. In our application, we've used a number of bounded task flows and page fragments deployed as af:region's into pages as either a) views targeted in page-flow navigation, b) tab panel content inside a regular jspx, or c) af:popup / af:dialog content. As it stands, we've not engaged nesting of the application modules for this embedded region content, so these regions are no doubt instantiating new AM's if/when invoked. Should the AM's servicing these embedded regions be deployed nested within the root AM's, and then if so, does this change the way that the jsff / fragment content is actually developed (currently as per any other jspx using the DataControl pallete). Or are the best-practice directives talking about a page as being the design-time / declarative composition of content rather than the run-time aggregation of page + fragments ... in which case the fact that our embedded fragments are not using nested AM's is unlikely to concern.
Thanks,

Probably a better question for the ADF EMG: http://groups.google.com/group/adf-methodology?hl=en

BUG: iPad displays 1cm border around content in task flow popup window

I have tried this out on JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.0, 11.1.2.1.0 and 11.1.2.2.0 and each one seems to have the same problem. When displaying a taskflow in-line popup windows on an iPad (iOS 4.3.5 and iOS 5.1) a ~1cm border is displayed on the left, bottom and top of the window's content, with some of the content (also about 1cm) on the right being cut-off.
I have also tried my app out on a Android Samsung Galaxy Tab (built-in browser), Android Samsung S1 (built-in) and on my Windows 7 PC in Safari and Firefox. None of these devices/browsers have this problem.
To replicate this problem the following steps can be followed.
1) Create a normal fusion web application.
2) Add a wild card control flow rule to the default unbounded task flow.
3) Add a new bounded task flow to the unbounded task flow.
4) Set the bounded task flow 'Run as Dialog' to 'true' and 'Display type' to 'inline popup'.
5) Link the wild card control flow to the bounded task flow.
6) Add a single jsf page to the bounded task flow.
7) Add a panel box to the jsf page (or any other content for that matter)
8) Create a test page and add a button to it. Set up the button's action properties such that it opens the bounded task flow as a window ('UseWindow' - 'true'; 'WindowEmbedStyle' - 'window'; 'WindowModalityType' - 'modeless' and set width and height).
Are any workarounds for this? Is there currently a available patch to fix this problem?

Hi,
Are any workarounds for this? Is there currently a available patch to fix this problem?
if nobody dares reproducing this and filing it as a bug then a fix can take a while. I'll put it on a list of my follow ups, but this is not a high priority list. So if you can I appreciate if you can file the bug and provide a testcase. Note that 11.1.2 (11g R2) is not yet optimized for tablet PCs. So JDeveloper 11g R1 (11.1.1.6) is the build that should be used as a reference for filing the bug

Bounded Task Flow restart on complete

Hi all,
I am currently using a JSFF fragment inside a region in a show detail item. This fragment is also the start of a bounded task flow and currently displays all rows from a table.
The task flow controls edit and create operations which navigates to another JSFF. I have commit and rollback return activities attached to this second JSFF but when the task flow finishes, the select one choice is empty.
Ideally, I want the task flow to start over again and the user be presented with all the rows again.
I have tried the refresh condition on the 'show detail item' but I still get the same behaviour.
Is there a property in the bindings that is set once a task flow has been completed?
Is there an easy way to restart the task flow once completed?
Regards
Jason
Edited by: Jason@GW on 23-Sep-2010 00:44

You can 'reset' the task flow from java code
DCTaskFlowBinding tf = (DCTaskFlowBinding)JSFUtils.resolveExpression("#{bindings.myTaskflow1}");
tf.getRegionModel().refresh(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance());You can put this code in, for example, regionNavigationListener and execute it when you detect return activity (or some other condition).
Maybe this approach is less declarative, but it can be very useful in some cases.
