Can ADF Faces Dialog Framework be used in a Bounded Task Flow ?

Jdev. 11.1.1.4
I have read chapter "19 Using Dialogs in Your Application" in the Jdev documentation.
There explains that there are mainly two methods to open dialogs in ADF:
The first (point 19.2) is calling a bounded task flow from a view activity (for example). This system can only open modal windows.
The other is using the ADF Faces Dialog Framework and it seems to be more general. In point "19.3.1 How to Define a JSF Navigation Rule for Opening a Dialog" it is explainied the way to achieve this but the explanation begins with "In the adfc-config.xml file, create a page flow for".
does this mean that I can not use this technology inside a Bounded task flow ?
I have tried and it seems that it doesn't work.
Currently we are using af:showpopupbehaviour to open popups, but this doesn't work with task flows and I don't like this.

does this mean that I can not use this technology inside a Bounded task flow ?ADF Faces Dialog Framework can be used in both unbounded and bounded taskflows.
I have tried and it seems that it doesn't work.The command commponent outcome must begin with "dialog:" and the command component tag must have useWindow="true", for example:
<tt><af:commandButton action="dialog:toEdit" useWindow="true" .../></tt>
Currently we are using af:showpopupbehaviour to open popups<af:showPopupBehaviour> can be used to open inline popups, but it has nothing to do with the Dialog Framework. Inline popups and the dialogs of the Dialog Framework are two different things.

ADF Faces: dialog framework calls twice prepareModel and prepareRender

Hi ,
does anybody know why ADF Faces dialog framework calls twice prepareModel and prepareRender lifecycle methods . That's a really problem for me because i'm calling db procedures through backing beans methods which are attached on components properties.
I cannot allow myself to cal the procedures more than once.
Can somebody help me?

Okay, although the servlet doesn't require to be run inside the JSF context, I added "/faces" to the URL simply because this would allow me to query the "postback" flag. In other words, I changed the invocation URL from "/jrrun" to "/faces/jrrun".
In the servlet's "service()" method I put:
logger.debug(">>>>>> isPostBack? " + AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().isPostback());
I also attached a JSF PhaseListener to the whole thing.
Then I opened the parent page, I clicked on the button and the dialog appeared. The console output follows:

By the way, partialSubmit="true" has the same effect as partialSubmit="false".
I'm not sure I understand you correctly. Or perhaps you don't understand me correctly.
I haven't got a problem with the parent page. I have a problem with the dialog page. It's executed twice. The RENDER_RESPONSE phase (as well as the RESTORE_VIEW phase) is executed twice.
I want it to be executed only once. I don't want the servlet to be executed twice.
Let me point out again that in the Embedded OC4J (inside JDeveloper) everything is okay. The servlet is executed only once. However, the same thing on OAS 10.1.3.1 runs twice.

Can not commit when using region in bounded task flow

Hi All
I am using Jdeveloper 11g R2 (11.1.2.3) & Weblogic 10.3.5.0
I have 2 bounded task flow in my application (A and B)
Each contain a fragment with few tabs (using af:panelTabbed)
I have another common functionality in this 2 bounded task flows
So I create another bounded task flow and add it as a region in tabs in task flows A and B
But when I am going to the common tab and insert record and commit using task flow commit it is not commit records in database
Is something wrong ? Any ideas how I can fix it?
Regards
Mohsen

Hi Frank
I am using below code for commit (from TaskFlowUtils class)
public void commitTaskFlow() {
getDataControlFrame().commit();
public DataControlFrame getDataControlFrame() {
BindingContext bindingContext = oracle.adf.controller.binding.BindingUtils.getBindingContext();
String dataControlFrameName = bindingContext.getCurrentDataControlFrame();
DataControlFrame dataControlFrame = bindingContext.findDataControlFrame(dataControlFrameName);
return dataControlFrame;
Your comment was too helpful , I change data control scope to shared and it is working now
One more related question:
Is adding bounded task flow into another fragment as region an advised approach?
Thanks a lot

ADF Faces Dialog problem.

Hi,
I am using JDeveloper IDE- 10.1.3.3.
I have a ADF Faces Dialog (launch Dialog) with a form and several input text components binded to a Backing Bean.
When Dialog is opened for the second time, the values of the text components loaded with previous values which I have enterd for the first time.
Scope of the Backing Bean is Request.
All the launch Dialogs are working in the same way.
The problem exists when I run the application from Application server(10.1.2.0).
It works fine from the JDeveloper.
How to do this ? please help!
Its very urgent.
Note: I have different application with similar launch dialog and functionality which works fine on the same Server and JDeveloper.
Thanks in advance.
Supravat

Supravat,
A sample of the pertinent code from a dialog that persists values would be helpful here.

Can we create application using only bounded task flow ?

I am new to ADF ..
can we create application by using only bounded task flow ...?
one unbounded task flow is necessary for any application ? ....
i searched on net ..but its not became clear
Thanks

I believe that it requires you to have at least one unbounded task flow as the standard entrance point for the application. However, I don't think there is anything stopping you from having the unbounded task flow only have access to your first bounded task flow. However, one of the purposes of the unbounded task flow is to define the different acceptable entrance points to your application.

ADF : Can we skip the default activity of ADF train in bounded task flow.?

Hi All,
I'm a newbie for ADF and JDev. Started learning from the documentation provided for ADF, I'm trying to create a bounded task flow which has a train component and every train stop should be enabled/skipped programmatically. I'm able to skip the train stops after reading the content provided at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/82-programmatically-navigate-trains-396873.pdf.
But I'm not able to skip the default train stop which is the first activity call in my case upon initialization.
Below are the steps I've followed :
1. Created a viewController project and created a bounded task flow in it with Train component enabled.
2. Added 4 views with train component marking the first view as default activity call.
3. As per the document I mentioned above, I added managed bean files to skip the train stop programmatically.
Now when i run the task flow, I'm able to skip the train stops number 2/3/4 but I'm not able to skip the stop number 1(first stop which is the default activity) on initialization.
As per ADF documentation, for a bounded task flow there must be a default activity assigned which will always be called first when we enter the bounded task flow. So that means, default activity will always be called upon initialization of that bounded task flow and never be skipped programmatically.? or else if there is a way to skip the default activity, then please let me know the documentation/steps to do this.
Thanks in advace.

Thanks Timo. Your idea resolved my issue. :)
I've created a new page in my bounded task flow which I've made as a default activity for that bounded task flow. Then I applied navigation through router and based on some condition I'm now able to move my control to my desired train stop. By this design I can do other customization on train button(Back/Next).

How to Call an ADF Bounded Task Flow Located in Another Web Application

Hi.
I'm working in JDev 11G TP3.
I've read the section from the 11G documentation on Working with Task Flow Activities,
specifically the section 15.5.3 on How to Call an ADF Bounded Task Flow Located in Another Web Application.
I've followed the instructions but still can not seem to call another task flow in another application correctly.
Can someone send a small example specifying how the (TaskFlow Reference) section
should be filled in, and just a general simple outline of process to set the whole process up.
Thanks

Your EL for the remote-app-url needs to return something like this
"http://www.acme.com:80/myapp/faces/adf.task-flow"
where "http://www.acme.com:80/myapp/faces" is the root of the url you'd normally use to access the remote application.
I filed two bugs:
bug 6944247 to improve the documentation
bug 6944246 to fix the fact that you currently have to specify the 'adf.task-flow' part. You shouldn't need to do that. But doing so for now will get it to work.

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.

Panel tabbed is not working in the page fragments used in a bounded task fl

Hi,
I tried creating a simple page fragment with a panel tabbed as below
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1"
xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/rich"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
<af:panelStretchLayout id="psl1">
<f:facet name="center">
<af:panelTabbed id="pt1">
<af:showDetailItem text="showDetailItem 1" id="sdi1"/>
<af:showDetailItem text="showDetailItem 2" id="sdi2"/>
<af:showDetailItem text="showDetailItem 3" id="sdi3"/>
</af:panelTabbed>

</f:facet>
</af:panelStretchLayout>
</jsp:root>
Then in an unbounded task flow, I added the bounded task flow which is just created above. when I run this page, the page is loaded but the tabs doesn't switch. When I click on the other tabs, it doesnt change, it is always active only in the first tab.
Is this a bug in adf, or am I missing something?
Can someone please help?
Thanks,
Sudarsan M

Hi Vinod,
Thanks for responding.
I want a page fragment with tabbedPanel to be loaded in my dynamic region. As I am facing this issue, I tried very simple example of creating a page fragment with a tabbedPanel of 3 tabs.
1. added this page fragment in an bounded task flow.
2. In the unbounded task flow(adfc-config.xml) added a view with the some jspx page and then added the bounded task flow created above as a static region in this jspx page.
3. When I run this view, I can see the page loaded with all the tabs in the page frament.
4. By default the first tab is selected, but when I tried to click on the other tabs, there is no response. It still stays in the first tab only.
Thanks,
Sudan

ADF Bounded Task Flow

I have created a bounded task flow which has the following activities: Method Call (default activity and it calls a custom method in a request scoped backing bean), a controlFlow to a jsf page, a controlFlow to a Task Flow Return.
Here is the xml code for the Bounded Task Flow:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
<adfc-config xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/controller" version="1.2">
<task-flow-definition id="fromviewprojlist-task-flow">

<managed-bean-class>com.dairynet.pts.controller.backing_ViewProjList</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
<method-call id="retrieveProjInfo">
<method>#{backing_ViewProjList.retrieveSingleProjData}</method>
<outcome>
<fixed-outcome>toSummary</fixed-outcome>
</outcome>
</method-call>
<view id="summary">
<page>/projectRequest/projSummary.jsf</page>
</view>
<task-flow-return id="tfrViewProjList">
<outcome>
<name>tfrViewProjList</name>
</outcome>
</task-flow-return>
<control-flow-rule id="__1">
<from-activity-id>retrieveProjInfo</from-activity-id>
<control-flow-case id="__2">

<control-flow-rule id="__3">
<from-activity-id>summary</from-activity-id>
<control-flow-case id="__4">
<from-outcome>toViewProjList</from-outcome>
<to-activity-id>tfrViewProjList</to-activity-id>
</control-flow-case>
</control-flow-rule>
</task-flow-definition>
</adfc-config>
I am calling this bounded task flow from a commandLink that is in an ADF table (partial code of the jsf page that has the commandLink):
<af:table value="#{bindings.VProjectlistQryVO1.collectionModel}" var="row"
rows="#{bindings.VProjectlistQryVO1.rangeSize}"
emptyText="#{bindings.VProjectlistQryVO1.viewable ? 'No data to display.' : 'Access Denied.'}"
fetchSize="#{bindings.VProjectlistQryVO1.rangeSize}" rowBandingInterval="0"
filterModel="#{bindings.ImplicitViewCriteriaQuery.queryDescriptor}"
queryListener="#{bindings.ImplicitViewCriteriaQuery.processQuery}"
filterVisible="true" varStatus="vs"
selectedRowKeys="#{bindings.VProjectlistQryVO1.collectionModel.selectedRow}"
selectionListener="#{bindings.VProjectlistQryVO1.collectionModel.makeCurrent}"
id="resId1" width="100%">
<af:column sortProperty="#{bindings.VProjectlistQryVO1.hints.ProjShortDesc.name}"
filterable="true" sortable="true" width="169"
headerText="#{bindings.VProjectlistQryVO1.hints.ProjShortDesc.label}"
id="resId1c1">
<af:commandLink action="fromviewprojlist-task-flow" id="cl1"
text="#{row.ProjShortDesc}"/>
Here is my code in the adfc-config.xml file related to the page calling the bounded task flow and the bounded task flow:
<control-flow-rule id="__7">
<from-activity-id>masterList</from-activity-id>
<control-flow-case id="__5">
<from-outcome>fromviewprojlist-task-flow</from-outcome>
<to-activity-id>fromviewprojlist-task-flow</to-activity-id>
</control-flow-case>
</control-flow-rule>
<control-flow-rule id="__6">

<control-flow-case id="__9">
<from-outcome>tfrViewProjList</from-outcome>
<to-activity-id>masterList</to-activity-id>
</control-flow-case>
</control-flow-rule>
When I click the commandLink where the action is the bounded task flow (fromviewprojlist-task-flow), it does not go into the method I am specifying in the Method Call activitiy (the default activity) within the task flow. It does not error out, but it does not go anywhere. My objective is to go to the custom backing bean method so I can get some value of the row in the table I clicked on, then use this value to successfully load the projSummary.jsf page
I am new to this, and I can't figure out what I'm missing. I appreciate any ideas you may have to help me resolve this.
Thanks!

I did as you suggested, but I see nothing in the console that indicates it's trying to run the bounded task flow. It's like it ignores it. No error, just redisplays the page I'm calling the bounded task flow from.
Previously, in another application, I created a bounded task flow with the default activity which was a Method Call activity, but I dragged and dropped a createInsert operation onto the Method Call activity from the Data Control. This worked fine (for creating an inputForm).
With this bounded task flow that is giving me problems, I'm not referencing the Data Control at all, I'm just referencing the method in the request-scoped backing bean. Is there something I don't have "wired up" correctly so that it's not even finding the bounded task flow the action attribute of my commandLink is referencing?
I'm not referencing the model (or an application module) at all, but should this matter? It seems like it should just find my backing bean method, run it, and carry on!

Getting error in using URL View in Task Flow

Hi,
Using Jdeveloper: 11.1.1.3.0
What I am trying to achieve is that an ADF application can be bookmarked, and when it is open without a valid EBS login context, it should redirect it to the EBS login screen. In method initMainPage , I have code that determines if valid session exist or not. If not, then redirect to a login screen (which I trying to implement using URL View component).
I am using a Bounded Task Flow. and the flow within is as follows:
methodCall1 -> initMainPage (AM method) -> URL View
For URL View, URL property is set to: #{MainPageContainerBean.ebsLogoutURL} . ebsLogoutURL is a String in MainPageContainerBean, with getter and setter as below.
public String getebsLogoutURL() {
return ebsLogoutURL;
// return "/oracle/apps/flm/ekanban/common/ui/page/ParameterEntry.jsff";
public void setebsLogoutURL(String ebsLogoutURL) {
this.ebsLogoutURL = ebsLogoutURL;
This task flow is part of a JSPX page. When I run the JSPX page, it give me the following error.
<Feb 2, 2011 1:30:37 PM PST> <Error> <HTTP> <BEA-101020> <[ServletContext@4396218[app:ekanban module:ekanban-UI-context-root path:/ekanban-UI-context-root spec-version:2.5]] Servlet failed with Exception
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Attempt to validate an already invalid RegionSite:

Please suggest a resolution or workaround to the issue.
Thanks,
Anoop

Now it is working. I didnt know that I needed to create getter and setter for the string that i refer to in the EL. Thanks for your help.

WebCenter/ADF Bounded Task Flow Permissions 11.1.1.4

Hello All,
I'm seeing some strange behavior related to permission on bounded task flows within a WebCenter Portal Application created with the 11.1.1.4 WC extensions.
I created a bounded task flow and added a view activity and a return activity to it. I have provided "Administrator", "anonymous-role", and "authenticated-role" application roles with view permissions for the task flow resource in "jazn-data.xml". I also added the page related to the view activity in the bounded task flow to my page hierarchy file "page.xml", and provided users with view permissions there.
What I'm seeing is that anonymous users can view pages in this bounded task flow just fine, but authenticated "Administrator" role users cannot.
Am I missing a configuration setting somewhere?
Thanks

Certainly... I've uploaded the sample application here: http://rapidshare.com/files/456317758/WebCenterTestApp.zip
To make this simple, I've used the OOB, pre-configured, Web Center Portal application template with default project files. Run the "home.jspx" page. I've removed the customization panel and added a button command whose action invokes the control flow to the task flow call activity for the bounded task flow. The task flow has a single page, and I have it being displayed as an inline pop-up... just for fun.
Before you login, click on the button to see how the anonymous user can view the bounded task flow page. After you return from the task flow, login and verify that the admin user sees the app auth error page in the dialog instead.
I've configured one admin user in jazn-data.xml: myadmin/myadmin1
Cheers

Can't create an ExecuteWithParams activity in a bounded task flow

I'm trying to replicate the application in the demo, Passing Parameters to a TaskFlow on the URL - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cklxe1qq5I
I created a ViewObject named PagerByLastName which has an iterator with the generated name, PagerByLastName1Iterator
(in Data Controls, a node is created for PagerByLastName , named PagerByLastName1
PagerByLastName1 has query with a parameter and binding variable for the parameter.
Next, I created a bound task flow and tried to drop an ExecuteWithParams from within PagerByLastName1 onto the bounded task flow.
However, in the Edit Action Binding dialog that opens, the Data Collection section is read-only and I'm unable to select a data collection to create
the ExecuteWithParams activity.
A warning message appears as I try to drop ExecuteWithParams -
"WARNING: IteratorNameNotFound--AppModuleDataControl1.PagerByLastName1"
However, the iterator name should be PagerByLastName1Iterator
Known issue? Is there any workaround?

The ViewObject does have both a query and bind variable defined for the parameter in the query.
The query is
select BEEPER, FIRST_NAME, MIDDLE_NAME, LAST_NAME, OUN from PERSON_ALL_V4 where ( ( ( UPPER(LAST_NAME) LIKE UPPER('%' || :lastname) ) OR ( :lastname IS NULL ) ) ) and cyber_status='Active'
lastname is the bind variable
I DnD the ExecuteWithParams node to the task flow and the Edit Action Bindings dialog opens, but I cannot select a data collection, the collections are collapsed
and can't be expanded.

How to use a managed bean in a bounded task flow without definig it in adfc-config

Dear all
I create a bounded task flow without page fragments (the pages are jspx), i created a jspx page with a button that its action has bounded to a managed bean function.
i defined the managed bean on the corresponding bounded task flow, but it does not work.
But there is no problem when i define the managed bean in adfc-config.xml.
can anybody help me with this problem.
is it possible to use jspx page with backing bean in bounded task flows, without defining the beans on adfc-config?
Thank you very much

Dear Timo
I use jDev 11.1.1.6 and the scope is Request.Although when i use task flow page fragment and create jsff pages, there is no problem.

Bounded Task Flow as Dialog - 404 Not Found

I am attempting to call a bounded task flow as an inline dialog from a view activity in my unbounded task flow. When the bounded task flow is invoked, I am presented with a dialog which contains a "404 Not Found" error. I thought that I had this right based on what I read in the developers guide:
1. In my unbounded task flow, create a task-flow-call activity
a. Set the "Run As Dialog" behavior to "true"
b. Set the "Display type" to "inline-popup"
2. Add a named control flow which associates a view activity to the task-flow-call activity.
3. In the related view activity page, add a command control with the "action" set to the name of the control flow, and "useWindow" set to "true".
4. In my bounded task flow, add a view activity which points to the JSF document (jsfx) that I want to display in the dialog.
5. I add a task flow return activity to my bounded task flow, and a control flow that associates the view activity with the return activity.
6. In my page fragment, I add a cancel button which invokes the control flow from the view activity to the return activity.
Run
When I click on the command button which invokes the bounded task flow as an inline pop-up, and I see an inline pop-up which contains the 404 page not found error.
I must be missing something fundamental here. I've scanned all the doc and the forum, but I don't see it. Will someone please point it out to me?
Cheers

I appreciate the response, but I am actually building an ADF application that I am running in the JDeveloper embedded WebLogic Server. These instructions are for deploying a task form composite app to a standalone WLS.
I'm just trying to run a bounded task flow in a dialog as described here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/web.1111/b31974/taskflows_dialogs.htm#BABBAFJB
However, I get the 404 Not Found error when I invoke the bounded task flow from a command control. The dialog appears, but the default page of my bounded task flow is not in it.
Seems like this has to be a simple problem to fix. Anyone?
Thanks

Can ADF Faces Dialog Framework be used in a Bounded Task Flow ?
