BUG? ADF-UIX uix-configuration.xml template-import

My UIX file works fine when I use templateImport:
<templates xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui">
    <templateImport source="tmpl/library.uit"/>
</templates>
...but I get the following error, when I try to make this templatelibrary global by adding the bold line in my uix-config.xml

Hi MatLee,
I follow the guide on chapter Configuration for ADF UIX to redefine paths for uit files and uix files but it doesn't work. I created a new uix page and it keep saving the page in the default root directory (public_html) instead of the path that I specified.
Could you please show me very detail <uix-path> example and uit path example that redefine the default paths for those two type of files. I need a working code examples, not a generic or shortcut ones. I need to store those files in their respective directories and relative to the root directory because the application is big and have many modules; each module's uix pages should be saved in their own directories and also separate from the template files directory.
Also, can I specify more than one paths in the <uix-path> tag? and is this tag used for redefining the path for uit templates file location as well or there is other tag for it?
Thanks
Tom

ADF UIX Search Form - Is this a bug?

I created a JDev 9.0.5.2 ADF UIX Search form from the component palette. I ran the page without making any changes. I chose the Find button which displayed the search criteria. I selected the delete button and then the create button, which created 2 blank records (possible bug?) in the search criteria table at the top. I selected one of the blank records and entered search criteria. I chose the submit button which changed the data in the search criteria table as it is supposed to do. I selected the other blank record, entered search criteria and submitted it. Again the data in the search criteria table was changed appropriately. I selected the delete button and the wrong record was deleted (bug?).
Are these bugs?

Hello,
a similar sort of situation is created if you have a Read-only table on a page which drills down to an edit/create input form page. If you enable a create functionality you need to enable some way for the user to back out of the created record and clean up the newly created row. On the detail page (JobsEdit.do) i created a link to a custom event on the master page action (JobsView.do) like this:
<button text="Cancel" destination="JobsView.do?event=cancelinput"/> In the Data Action class for the JobsView page i have a method defined as follows:
public void onCancelinput(DataActionContext ctx)
Row row = ctx.getBindingContainer().getApplicationModule().findViewObject("JobsView1").getCurrentRow();
row.refresh(row.REFRESH_REMOVE_NEW_ROWS );
}as a workaround, it sounds like you may need put some manual controls in place to tightly control any newly created rows which have/will not been used. I don't know if this will resolve the deleting wrong record problem...
regards,
Brenden

ADF UIX: LOV searchText contains wrong value (maybe it is a bug)

I'm developing a WEB-application using ADF UIX.
I'm using JDeveloper 9.0.5.2 build 1618.
I've created a form with a messageLovInput field.
If I type e.g. Veszprém into the input field the content of the searchText parameter seems wrong. The URL is http://bela:8988/szszr/_ui.uix?_t=fred&enc=UTF-8&_minWidth=750&_minHeight=550&configName=BaseUIPBCfg1&contextURI=/szszr&redirect=/szszr/telepulesekLOV.do&source=levCimTelepules&searchText=Veszpr%C3%A9m&event=lovFilter
And the value of the searchText string in the lovFilter event is
[0] 'V' 86
[1] 'e' 101
[2] 's' 115
[3] 'z' 122
[4] 'p' 112
[5] 'r' 114
[6] ' ' 65533
The interesting thing is that the final letter (m) is missing from the string!
If I write Veszprém into the search field of the listOfValue and I press the Go button I get the right value in searchText.
The web.xml contains the following part:
<filter>
<filter-name>ADFBindingFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>oracle.adf.model.servlet.ADFBindingFilter</filter-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>encoding</param-name>
<param-value>UTF-8</param-value>

</init-param>
</filter>
The encoding of the UIX pages is windows-1250.
Any help is appreciated,
Gábor

Uploading xml file using ADF UIX and storing in ordsys.orddoc field

I am using ADF UIX and I am using the messageFileUpload tag to upload an XML file into the database (the file contains special characters like hyphens, apostrophes, $, etc). Once in the database I have a procedure which puts it into a clob field using the dbms_lob package. However, what exactly does ordsys.orddoc do with special characters? If I debug my procedure I see that 1 of 4 hyphens and 3 apostrophes have been turned into a character that looks like a square. Anyone know what is going on?

It should pass binary information only, no conversion at all.
The conversion is likely in messageFileUpload or the dbms_lob package you are using. Or you may need to tell DBMS_LOB the character set the XML file is in?
You may want to upload the file using the interMedia tag library... Using uploadFormData?

Hi
I am facing a mysterious problem with partial page rendering in ADF UIX.
My page contains a <header> H1 and inside this there are two headers(H2 and H3).
The partial page rendering is in the header H2 and is working fine.
When i remove the below header H3 the partial page rendering ceases to work and get stuck.

Please suggest if you know of any documentation on ADF UIX partial page rendering.
ADF UIX has very little documentation online and finding it hard to debug this issue.
It ll be of great help.
Thanks
Kamal

Hi Jason,
As of EA9, all rendered components support a partialTriggers attribute. This attribute takes a list of master component IDs. If any of the master components are updated via a partial event, the dependent component will be rerendered in the partial update.
If you are on an earlier release, you should upgrade.
Thanks,
Jeanne

ADF UIX Role Based Access Control Implementation

Hi,
Can anybody suggest a detailed example or tutorials of how to implement a role based access control for my ADF UIX application.
The application users can be dymanically added to specific roles (admin, Secretary, Guest). Based on the roles, they should be allowed to access only certain links or ADF entity/view operations. Can this be implemented in a centralized way.
Can this be done using JAZN or JAAS. If so, Please provide me references to simple tutorial on how to do this.
Thanks a lot.
Sathya

Brenden,
I think you are following a valid approach. The default security in J2EE and JAAS (JAZN) is to configure roles and users in either static files (jazn-data.xml) or the Oracle Internet Directory and then use either jazn admin APIs or the OID APIs to programmatically access users, groups and Permissions (your role_functions are Permissions in a JAAS context).
If you modelled your security infrastructure in OID than the database, an administrator would be able to use the Delegated Administration Service (DAS), as web based console in Oracle Application Server. To configure security this way, you would have two options:
1. Use J2EE declarative security and configure all you .do access points in web.xml and constrain it by a role name (which is a user group name in OID). The benefit of this approach is that you can get Struts actions working dirctly with it because Struts actions have a roles attribute.
The disadvantage is that you can't dynamically create new roles because they have to be mapped in web.xml
2. Use JAAS and check Permissions on individual URLs. This allows you to perform finer grained and flexible access control, but also requires changes to Struts. Unlike the approach of subclassing the DataActionForward class, I would subclass the Struts RequestProcessor and change the processRoles method to evaluate JAAS permissions.
The disadvantage of this approach is that it requires coding that should be done carefully not to lock you in to your own implementation of Struts so that you couldn't easily upgrade to newer versions.
1 - 2 have the benefit of that the policies can be used by all applications in an enterprise that use Oracle Application Server and e.g. SSO.
Your approach - as said - is valid and I think many customers will look for the database first when looking at implementing security (so would I).
Two links that you might be interested in to read are:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jguard/ --> an open source JAAS based security framework that stores the user, roles and permissions in database tables similar to your approach
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/collateral/papers/10g/adfstrutsj2eesec.pdf --> a whitepaper I've written about J2EE security for Web applications written with Struts and JavaServer pages. You may not be able to use all of it, but its a good source of information.

Data Binding in ADF UIX example trouble

Two related questions:
From the help example 3. Data Binding in ADF UIX example trouble in JDeveloper on UIX. If this worked I was going to run a small java class that captures the login and passes it as a messagebox with a Welcome login name on the first page, but I can't get past the example and path problems.
From the example..."
package yourpackage;
import java.util.Date;
public class CurrentDateBean
public CurrentDateBean() { }
public String getTime()
return (new Date()).toString();
Now, we want to change the page so it uses getTime(). We need to do three things: Tell UIX to data bind the text attribute. Add a <dataScope> to the page to provide data to the content. Write a small "data provider" in Java that can access the bean. First, we'll data bind "text": <text xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui"
text="${uix.data.currentDate.time}"/>The example has one small change. The value is changed to ${uix.data.currentDate.time}, which is an expression that defines the data. This is shorthand for "get the time property from currentDate." If you tried running this example, you'd see nothing. That iss because we haven't given currentDate to the page, so the databinding failed, and the "text" is left to null. We do this by adding <dataScope> to the page: <dataScope xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui">
<provider>
Q#1?? Trying to follow the demo. The method class and method name do not seem to match the names in the above class from the demo. Am I missing a point here, please help.
<data name="currentDate">
<method class="yourpackage.DataDemo" method="getCurrentDate"/>
</data>
</provider>
<contents>
<text text="${uix.data.currentDate.time}"/>
</contents>
</dataScope>
Q#2?? When I try and apply the demo class to my home.uix XML file with
"<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>
<page xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/controller"
xmlns:ui="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui"
xmlns:data="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui"
xmlns:ctrl="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/controller"
xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40" expressionLanguage="el">
<content>
<dataScope xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui">
<provider>

<data name="currentDate">
<method class="us.mn.state.dot.apptrack.security.CurrentDateBean" method="getTime()"/>
</data>

</provider>
<contents>
<text text="${uix.data.currentDate.time}"/>
<document>
<metaContainer>"
I get the following, and I don't know how to make the UIX XML accept the correct path, please help:
�file:/C:/JDeveloper905p/jdev/mywork/ProjTrack/AppTrack/ViewController/public_html/home.uix: Parsing error, line 12, column 97: Could not find class us.mn.state.dot.apptrack.security.CurrentDateBean

for question 1 the name of the class CurrentDateBean
actually has nothing to do with the el expression
uix.data.currentDate.time. The currentDate part of the
el expression is coming from the method data provider part
of your page:
<data name="currentDate">
<method class="yourpackage.DataDemo"
method="getCurrentDate"/>
</data>
so if you changed the name of the data provider to "foo":
<data name="foo">
<method class="yourpackage.DataDemo"
method="getCurrentDate"/>
</data>
your el would look like this:
uix.data.foo.time
by the way the uix.data part tells UIX to look for
a <data> element define in the <provider> section of
your dataScope.
For question #2, do you have the java file
us.mn.state.dot.apptrack.security.CurrentDateBean on
your classpath and is it compiled? You will get that
warning if it is not on your classpath.
Also you are incorrectly interpreting the example. What
you are doing is trying to reference the actual bean
object and its getTime() method. What you want to do
is write a method data provider that returns your
CurrentDataBean. so uix.data.currentDate would return
a CurrentDateBean instance object. the .time part of the
el expression would tell UIX to look for a method named
getTime() and use that value.
let me know if you have any more questions.

Problem with uix-config.xml, custom stylesheet mystyles.xss

using JDeveloper 9i (9.0.3.1035)
Hi,
I have created a uix-config.xml in the WEB-INF directory of my web-application. It looks as follows:

</application-configuration>
</configurations>
(I did try to use the default-configuration element but there result was similarly disappointing)

When I start the application, I notice that debug-mode is switched on, i.e. the uix-config.xml is found and correctly loaded. However, I see no effect whatsoever of my own stylesheet mystyles.xss.
I have even tried to define the stylesheet on the UIXPagebroker servlet in the web.xml (though I have no idea whether that is possible at all):
<servlet>
<servlet-name>uix</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>oracle.cabo.servlet.UIXServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>oracle.cabo.servlet.xml.CheckModified</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>oracle.cabo.ui.StylesheetName</param-name>
<param-value>mystyles.xss</param-value>
</init-param>
In short, is there anyone who can tell me how to "invoke" my own stylesheet? Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for your thoughts!
Lucas

OK,
I have been reading more of the other posts on this topic and figured out the problem. Of course I had used the <stylesheet-name> element listed in the On Line Help UIX Developer's Guide instead of the <stylesheet> it should be.
Having made that change in the uix-config.xml file, everything was fine.
(so now no more rubbish in the web.xml, a straightforward uix-config.xml and my own mystyles.xss)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<configurations xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/config">
<default-configuration debug="true" >
<style-sheet>tmitts.xss</style-sheet-name>
</default-configuration>
</configurations>
and
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<styleSheetDocument xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/style">
<import href="blaf.xss"/>
<styleSheet>
<style name="DefaultFontFamily">
<property name="font-family">serif</property>

Jdeveloper 10.1.2 whitout adf uix

Hello I'm programming an application web with the enviroment jdeveloper 10.1.2 using Struts technology. I've a problem because everytime the own jdeveloper includes automatically the adf uix libraries and code in the web.xml like:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>uix</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>oracle.cabo.servlet.UIXServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>oracle.cabo.servlet.pageBroker</param-name>
<param-value>oracle.cabo.servlet.xml.UIXPageBroker</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
and the folder html/cabo, I dont want this extra information, because I dont want use adf technology, only J2EE. What's the jdeveloper configuration to prevent this situation?
Thank you very much!!

Hi Steve
I have read your "Building a Web Store with Struts & ADF Frameworks 10.1.2" guide and I have found a answer to each question that I had.
Nevertheless, I try to use your extension framework classes to my web application, but I cannot find the data control (this method (findDataControl(dataControlName);) return a null pointer exception.
In MyAppDataForwardAction classes ...
protected ApplicationModule getApplicationModule(String dataControlName, DataActionContext ctx) {
DCDataControl dc = ctx.getBindingContext().findDataControl(dataControlName);
if ((dc != null) && dc instanceof DCJboDataControl) {
return (ApplicationModule) dc.getDataProvider();
return null;
I have add this classes to my application ( Framework Extension Project )
ExceptionHelper
ModuleApplicationMyAppImpl extends ApplicationModuleImpl
MyAppDataForwardAction extends DataForwardAction
MyAppErrorHandler extends DCErrorHandlerImpl
I have add this extend to my AM Service (Model Project)
MyAppServiceImpl extends ModuleApplicationMyAppImpl
I have add this class (ViewController Project)
MyAppServiceDataForwardAction extends MyAppDataForwardAction
note : I don't use your UIX and xsql extension framework facilities.
Could you help me with these few informations ?
Do you have a french version of this guide "Building a Web Store with Struts & ADF Frameworks 10.1.2" ?
Thank's !!

ADF UIX and Javascript

Hello,
I am new in ADF UIX...
I have a table in ADF UIX and I would like to use some my javascript functions. I know I have to set: <table proxied="true">....</table> but where I can write my functions, in an included file ? I mean, how does the interaction between the XML configuration file and javascript work ?
Thank in advance,
Henry

Hi Rade Todorovich,
As mentioned previously, if you had placed the javascript as indexed child of head element it would be fine.
<Head> is named child of <metaContainer> which inturn is named child of <document> element. The example below should make it clear.
This is how the UIX document would be
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<page xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/controller"
xmlns:ui="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui"
xmlns:ctrl="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/controller"
xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"
expressionLanguage="el">
<content>
<dataScope xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui">
<provider>

</provider>
<contents>
<document>
<metaContainer>

<head title="test">
<contents>

<script source="./cabo/js/test.js"/>
<script>
<contents>
function theFunction()
alert('the function');
</contents>
</script>
</contents>
</head>
</metaContainer>
<contents>
<body>
<contents>
<form name="form0">

<contents>
<script>
<contents>
function hi()
alert('hi');
</contents>
</script>
<button text="call-hi" name="fn" onClick="return hi();"/>
<button text="call-theFunction" name="fn1" onClick="return theFunction();"/>
</contents>
</form>
</contents>
</body>
</contents>
</document>
</contents>
</dataScope>
</content>
<handlers>

</handlers>
</page>
There are two usages:
Case 1
In your html it would just appear the way you would normally write a JS function with in the head
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<META>
<script language="javascript" src="./cabo/js/test.js">

<scirpt language="javascript">
theFunction()
</script>
</head>

<form ....>
</form>
<script language="javascript">
function hi()
alert('hi');
</script>
</html>
Case 2
As such <script> element can occur in HTML document.
as mentioned in http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/scripts.html#h-18.2.1
In the same way UIX also allows the use of script element with in its <body> element.
With case 2 you can see the way the script gets inlined in the HTML document. Please run the UIX and view source for the rendered page. It should become obvious.
Thanks,

One immediate thing: "EA6" is in the tag library namespaces, but you're using EA12.
In general, there've been a lot of changes between EA6 and EA12, but the changed namespace is one simple thing.

File upload, download using ADF UIX and not JSP

I have examples for the file upload, download using JSP
But I want to use ADF UIX. Look and feel in this is impressing and I want to use this. Any one have example for this.
Users will select a file from their desktop
This will be stored into the database (Any document. Word, Excel)
When they query the records then the UIX column need to give a hyperlink. Clicking on the link should prompt to download the file to the local system

Sure, I use the Apache Commons File Upload package, so that is what I will discuss here ( [Commons File Upload|http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/] ).
The Commons File Upload uses instances of ProgressListener to receive upload progress status. So first create a simple class that implements ProgressListener:
public class ProgressListenerImpl implements ProgressListener {
    private int percent = 0;
    public int getPercentComplete() {
        return percent;
    public void update(long pBytesRead, long pContentLength, int pItems) {
        if (pContentLength > -1) { //content length is known;
            percent = (new Long((pBytesRead / pContentLength) * 100)).intValue();
}So in your Servlet that handles file upload you will need to create an instance of this ProgressListenerImpl, register it as a listener and store it in the session:
ServletFileUpload upload = new ServletFileUpload();
ProgressListenerImpl listener = new ProgressListenerImpl();
upload.setProgressListener(listener);
request.getSession().setAttribute("ProgressListener", listener);
...Now create another servlet that will retrieve the ProgressListenerImpl, get the percent complete and write it back (how you actually write it back is up to you, could be text, an XML file, a JSON object, up to you):
ProgressListenerImpl listener = (ProgressListenerImpl) request.getSession().getAttribute("ProgressListener");
response.getWriter().println("" + listener.getPercentComplete());
...Then your XMLHttpRequest object will call this second servlet and read the string returned as the percent complete.

Oracle ADF UIX and Struts

Does Oracle ADF UIX use Struts components internally? If yes, Does Oracle Support the issues that arises because this internally used Struts components? (I am using Oracle ADF in my application.
Thanks,
Aravind.

DataForwardAction and DataAction are build on top of struts actions to coordinate ADF databindings and it's life cycle;
UIX, has xmlns:struts="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/struts" this XML namespace has some elements like
<struts:form> and <struts:messageTextInput> also <struts:dataScope>
They work like struts jsp tag;
here a good paper;

ADF UIX programatic data binding

Oracle ADF UIX Developer's Guide mentions the possibility to use the UIX framework in Java, to create new objects or alter the existing ones.
E.g. we can create a table using a construct like:
TableLayoutBean tlb = new TableLayoutBean();
The same document demonstrates the data binding:
BoundValue rows = new DataBoundValue(_YOUR_NAMESPACE, YOURNAME, "rows");
tlb.setIndexedNodeList(new DataObjectListNodeList(rows));
For "simple" attributes using DataObject DataObjectList, etc. the procedure is clear. But what about creating a data bound table or input text:
<table model="${bindings.EmpView1}" ... >
<messageTextInput model="${bindings.DeptCode}"/>
Itâs easy to understand that model="${bindings.EmpView1}" or model="${bindings.DeptCode}" are equivalent to multiple attribute bindings (data, validation, read-only, etc.), but it looks that the classes/methods resolving these equivalences and linking the bean to the corresponding DCControlBinding, are not public (or maybe I was not able to find them).
How can we obtain programmatically, in Java, the same structure as described above (in XML)? The best would be to use the same classes used when the UIX XML document is parsed to create the page description.
It would be very nice to be able to use a structure like
tbl.setModel( new JUCtrlRangeBinding(...) );
txt.setModel( new JUCtrlValueBinding(...) );
or maybe
txt.setAttribute( "model", new TextInputModelBoundValue(...) ) etc.
In JSF we can do something like:
ValueBinding vb = application.createValueBinding(value);
component.setValueBinding(attributeName, vb);
Can we do something similar in UIX?
Any help will be appreciated,
thanks,
Mircea Ionita

Since the code is already written, it's a pity that we can't use/extend it. I don't like to say it (sorry) but I find this design choice (implement the "model" only into the XML parsing layer) a little bit strange (or maybe I don't understand... ;-) ). We should (or we are supposed to) be able to do in java everything that we can do in XML.
I would like to find more support/help for the programmatic approach. I have the feeling that you are too focalised on "use-our-state-of-the-art-tools/wizards-to-write-the-code-for-you" and you forgot that this is not suitable for all projects. E.g. our application creates the user interface according to a layout defined by each user. To generate it, we need to use at maximum the extension mechanism and we can't simply relay on "rendered" attribute etc.
-When should we expect this new UIX release?
-What about the UIX controller? The Struts controller will replace it?
-What about the source code of uixexp2-demo.jar (distributed with ADF_UIX_component_guide)?
-Why while debugging we can't set a method/class breakpoint on UIX classes (to understand the data flow) - the stack is secret?
Thanks
