Bind a new view object to same adf table at run time

Question

Hello,
I have an adf table, that changes based on the type of data the user selects. For example, lets say we have a page that consists of type drop down box at the top and an ADF table at the bottom, which lists data based on the type that is selected from the drop down box. For example, lets say, I have the types (Cars, Planes, and Trains).
Let's further say we have a view object for cars, one for Planes and one for Trains. Each VO has its own specific set of attributes associated with them, which in should be reflected in the adf table that's on the screen.
So for example, I select Train..
My table should contain the columns, num cabs, train type, year built
For plane, the columns might be Num engines, plane manufacturer, size(ie. 747, 727, etc), year built
Some type of thing with Cars , cylinders, color, model, year, etc.
Is there a way to tell my adf table to use a specific view object(ie. Plane, train, or car) at runtime?

Answer 1

You can try implementing this with dynamic components, e.g. dynamic table
>
ADF Dynamic and ADF Read-Only Dynamic Table: Allows you to create a
table when the attributes returned and displayed are determined dynamically
at runtime. This component is helpful when the attributes for the
corresponding object are not known until runtime, or you do not wish to
hardcode the column names in the JSF page. For more information about
working with dynamic components, see Section 26.7, "Using a Dynamic Form
to Determine Data to Display at Runtime."

Or you use dynamic regions and swithc the region containing the table depending on the selectOneChice. Check http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24382_01/web.1112/e16182/taskflows_regions.htm and https://blogs.oracle.com/shay/entry/adf_dynamic_regions_switching_just
