Can't fnd Data Controls in jdeveloper studio

Here is my problem. I can't find Data Controls Accordion in jDeveloper studio. I red some body's reply about this subject and was trying to do what he was telling me to. What he suggests to solve the proble is just to delete
"oracle.security.jps.config /C:/Users/Adam/AppData/Roaming/JDeveloper/system11.1.1.3.37.56.60/DefaultDomain/config/fmwconfig/jps-config-jse.xml" . But, first of all, I can't even find "AppData/Roaming/JDeveloper/system11.1.1.3.37.56.60/DefaultDomain/config/fmwconfig/jps-config-jse.xml" sub directory in my computer. May be it could be hidden for some reason.
Can any body help me how to access this sub directory. By the way my operating system is windows Vista.

I was having a problem where the Data Controls panel and the Recently Opened Files panel were not displayed in the Application navigation area. To fix the problem, I went to the Tools -> Preferences... area, selected Roles, and changed the Role from Default Role to Java EE Edition. Then I restarted JDeveloper. Still there were no Data Controls and Recently Opened Files panels. So, I went back to the Tools -> Preferences... area, selected Roles, and changed the Role from Java EE Edition back to Default Role. Then I restarted JDeveloper and the Data Controls and Recently Opened Files panels are now visible.
This is JDeveloper11g Release 1 (11.1.1.3.0) running on Linux.

Problems to create data control in JDeveloper 11g

Hi everybody , I´m having problems to use Data Control in Jdev 11 , I create an jpa , and with my entities I create the data control component , but when I try to create a JSF page I can´t use data control, where is data control component palette ?

Please post JDev 11 questions on the JDev 11 forum

Using the Edit definition feature for data controls in Jdeveloper 11g

Hello,
I am using Jdeveloper 11g 11.1.2.3.0.
I have some data controls used in my application. Initially they were pointing to lab now it has been changed to development.
I need to change the wsdl urls' for each data controls. I used edit definition feature in each data controls and copy pasted the new urls. But this does not seem to work.
Is this the right way of doing it or is there any other way to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance,
Sal

Hi,
choose Application Resources (iAccordion in Application Navigator) --> ADF META-INF --> Open and Change connections.xml

Can't find Data Control Palette

I can't find the Data Control Palette...
If I click on "View" in the jdev toolbar, I only see Component Palette and Resource Palette. What do I do?
Thanks

The Data Control Palette is inside an accordion in the Application Navigator in 11g.

Web Service Data Control ADF

Hi,
I am trying to create an application using Web service Data control in Jdeveloper 11g TP4. This web servcie returns complex data type: that is an object.
while creating data control using wizard : Web service Data control, I am able to get the data control having input patrameter and return object and on exapnding that in data control palette I am able to get all atrribute of that objects.
Data control Palette:
operation : viewRequest(String)
Parameter
REQID
Return
viewrequest_result
ReqID
Product Code
Quantity
Price
I have created a simple JSF form by draging and droping the components fron Data control palette. There are two problems that I am facing while running the application:
1. Getting NullPointerException for the input parameter stating that input parameter can not be null: Error while building SOAP request
oracle.adfinternal.model.adapter.webservice.provider.soap.SOAPProvider setParameters
Value for parameter 'USRID' cannot be null
2. Setting that parameter with a default value I am able to call the web servcie and web service is successfully get invoked too and returns the response but the problem is that on Jdeveloper JSF screen it is not showing the output. I have created a read only form by dragging and dropping the return parameter from Data control palette. Even though the reponse is not getting dispalyed.
Do i need to do anything more or I am missing any step. I have referrrd the link http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/1013/wsadf/adfcomplexwstypes.html : stating the complex return type handling in Jdeveloper 10.3. Do I need to create a Java Bean for the complex type even though data control is having all object attribute of complex data type.
Thanks in advance.

Please make sure that the service's return strcture follows the same strutre as described in the WSDL file. In almost all of the cases like this, I found that service returns doesn't exactly match the structure definition. In that case the WSDC fails to parse the output the way it's told to and the EL used in the pages will fetch nothing, hence a black page shows up.

Getting Extra classes while creating Data Control in ADF

I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.6.0.
I was trying to create a Data Control from a Java class (containing event handling code) right click on the java class -> Create data Control.
I can see many data controls were created in my work space when the operation was completed
Example: java.io.InputStream.xml, java.net.URI.xml and many more.
Anybody please suggest is it a problem in Jdeveloper tool or I need to perform any additional step to remove all these files.
Regards,
Rajesh

Hello TimoHahn,
I can see only the Data controls are getting generated (not the class files).
Please find the code snippet for my class for which I generated data controls:
public class ContexEvent {
    public ContexEvent() {
        super();
    public void handleEvent(ActionEvent payload){
        UIComponent component = payload.getComponent();
        Map<String, Object> attrMap = component.getAttributes();
        FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        ELContext elContext = context.getELContext();
        Application application = context.getApplication();
        ExpressionFactory factory = application.getExpressionFactory();
        ValueExpression valueExpr = factory.createValueExpression(elContext, "#{backingBeanScope.NameBean}", Object.class);
        NameBean nb=(NameBean)valueExpr.getValue(elContext);
        //String newVal = (String)payload.getNewValue();
        nb.setFirstName("Rajesh");
        AdfFacesContext adfContext= AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        adfContext.addPartialTarget(nb.getNameLabel());

URL Services Data Control (REST / JSON)

Hi,
I am planning to write a PoC of an integration for JIRA in an ADF Application. I am not too expert on REST services but that is what JIRA API gives me, REST API.
I have been trying to create an URL Services Data Control but I have encounter 2 problems;
- Since I need to use 11g R1 I can't choose the HTTP type request so I just have read access through GET request. If I am not mistaken, 11g R2 allows you the possibility to chose GET,POST,DELETE etc.
- Under the assumption that OK, I am OK just working with GET action, the REST service response comes as JSON so I don't know exactly if its worth to use the URL Data Control at this point since once I have created my DC it doesnt have any structure like would normally do.
My questions;
In this blog by Frank Nimphius https://blogs.oracle.com/jdevotnharvest/entry/which_option_to_choose_for he says
Note: In the above, I exclude REST services in my recommendation because this is what ADF will
address much better using the URL data control in JDeveloper 11g R2 (available) and with improved functionality
in the upcoming Oracle JDeveloper 12c release.*.- Is this valid for XML and JSON responses or just for XML responses?
*.- Do I need to create an XSD file myself in order to get a better DC objects?
*.- Finally, what is the best approach since I am confused about all information on internet.
Thanks
p.s: I am using 11.1.1.6

If you are stuck on 11.1.1.6 then you can just write simple POJOs that access the REST services and then expose those services as data controls for ADF.
If you can upgrade to 11.1.2.3 then you'll be able to fully leverage the REST data control - the basic steps are here:

How do you get Data Controls to work!

I am having a very rough time with ADF Data controls.
I have a bunch of code that works great. I can run it from the command line, my unit tests work, etc. I make a Data Control and hardly anything works. I tried to include my data control library (I exported it as an ADF Library Jar) into a web app and it never worked. I wasn't even sure if the Data Control itself was working so I made a simple swing app and it worked...kind of. I noticed that if I had 2 data controls and called a function in each from my swing app then it would fail. But, if I included the methods in one data control and only used that one, it worked (kind of).
This looks like a bug.
Anyway, is there a dependency problem with the ADF Library Jar I'm exporting to my web project? I included all the dependent libraries in the classpath section of the project properties. The web app sees the data controls in the data control panel. When I drag the data control method onto my JSFx page it creates the table just fine. The problem is when it runs, no data comes back even though I KNOW it is working because of the unit tests and I got it working with the swing app. The swing app was in the same project as my data control code however.
Please help!

BTW, if I hard code some simple data object with some values and return that, it works, just not when I do anything 'real'. Like I said, I use this data control in a swing app in the project itself for testing. My code has unit tests and works.
I am importing the exported ADF Library Jar into my web app, click refresh on the data controls, and I can see the data controls. I drag the functions over to my jsfx page and it paints the table in the editor just fine.
I import all the 3rd party jars in the classpath of the project. Then I get that 'cant find so and so DataControl'. But it CAN find the data control for simple, hard coded data.
All I see in the logs is this from the default server log;

ADF data control classpath issue

Hi,
when I am trying to create a jmx connection as part of adf jmx data control using jdeveloper 11.1.2.2.0.
As part of jmx connection I am providing websphere server 9.7 fp25 connection (installed in the same machine) details and when I click on test connection in the data control wizard getting the following error
Connection failed:
java.io.IOException: Failed to retrieve RMIServer stub: javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Cannot instantiate class: com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory [Root exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory]
I guess it is a classpath issue. If it is, where can I provide the class path for data control? or something else I have to do?
I found the above missing class is available in /scratch/was/IBM/Websphere/AppServer/runtimes/com.ibm.ws.admin.client_7.0.0.jar
Please suggest.
thanks in advance,
cdhar

repost. Any pointers to documentation would be great!

JDeveloper - ADF Mobile - Web Services Data Control

Hello,
I'm new to ADF mobile (newer than ADF mobile itself :) I watched Shay's excellent you tube videos which makes it look really easy to create a mobile projects. I was successfully able to create a simple project and deploy it on my iphone and ipad. The next step is to get data from a web service. I am trying to create web service data control from this wsdl: http://msrmaps.com/TerraService2.asmx?wsdl.
However I keep getting an unusual error with a dialog of heading: "Invalid WSDL URL" and the dialog says: "oracle/adfinternal/model/adapter/webservice/utils/WSUtils$DefaultAuthPrompter" with an OK button. I tried quite a few things and other applications like Flex Builder and Soap UI and was able to successfully use this wsdl: http://msrmaps.com/TerraService2.asmx?wsdl.
A few things about my environment:
I am working on mac OS X 10.8.2
I have JDeveloper Studio Edition Version 11.1.2.3.0 (Build JDEVADF_11.1.2.3.0_GENERIC_120914.0223.6276.1)
Java version installed: 1.6.0_37
I'm at a loss here and not sure what am I missing? I tried googling "DefaultAuthPrompter" and nothing shows up.
Any help is much appreciated.
thanks,
Rahul

Hi Arun,
I'm not behind a firewall and access the wsdl directly. I can also use other applications to generate proxy classes from this wsdl url.
I am starting to wonder if there is missing library on my mac installation of Jdeveloper?

I can not find (see) the Data Control Accordion

Hello all,
I cannot find (see) the Data Control Accordion, I just installed the Jdeveloper 11g (Oracle JDeveloper 11g (11.1.1.2.0) - November 2009) from this link http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/jdev/htdocs/soft11.html
I started a new ADF BC application, but I cannot find the data control accordion to drag and drop the components I created in the application model. Is there anything I must do after installation (post installation), is there any libraries need to be installed? Please, I need a help to create my application, I’m totally stuck, many thanks for any help.
Kind regards,
Nabil

Using WebCenter Spaces Web Service API through JDeveloper's Data Control

Hi,
I'm trying to access WebCenter Spaces Web Service API (located at http://host:port/webcenter/SpacesWebService)
using JDeveloper's Web Center Data Control.
I created a data control in my portal project using JDeveloper's Web Service Data Control wizard.
I also created and configured key stores (jps-config.xml) at both sides (spaces server and my portal client).
How I created a data control:
* First I entered the name and the URL (http://host:port/webcenter/SpacesWebService?WSDL)
* Then I entered HTTP basic authentication details (user name and password)
* After that I drag-and-drop the getGroupSpaces() method from the data control to a .jspx page as a ADF read-only table.
* Then ran my portal project and navigated to this .jspx page and it worked. List of group spaces appeared well on that page.
The problem is that I got only public group spaces and group spaces created by the user I entered on HTTP basic authentication details.
I makes no sense to enter some static user details in a web service client (or a data control).
So the question is; can I use identity propagation to get only group spaces created by the same user which I logged in my portal?

Hi,
You generally get NameError when you are executing the createCred/updateCred from a incorrect location. Are you using the wlst from oracle_common\common\bin?
Also, In your steps I don't see what you did to populate the walllet at JDeveloper end after your updateCred failed. This is a required step. Use the wlst from the location emntioned above and you should be able to proceed.
Thanks,

How Can I use a Variable in Data Controls query. Frank Kindly check...

Hii,
I am using JDeveloper 11g ADF BC.
My Requirement is that I hv a login screen which is taken from [http://blogs.oracle.com/shay/simpleJSFDBlogin.zip].
I hv attached BC in this application. I want to use the login usercode in the next pages after login screen. Next screen contains 3 list items which will be populating based on the user. So I created <af:selectOneChoice> using the BC( Just drag & dropped the column into the page from the data controls). But in the data control i want to use this usercode for passing the condition. Now Data is coming without any condition.
So How can I use the usercode in the Data controls query.
When I tried to display the usercode in the next page it is showing by binding the value. its code is follows
<af:outputText value="#{backing_getUser.uid}"
The program for checking the username & Password is follows.

Hi,
I didn't look at the example, but if you want to secure your application then you should use container managed security. Read this .
Anyway, you could add this before return "good"; in your login_action()
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSessionMap().put("username", user);Then, you can access this from anywhere in the application by using #{sessionScope.username}.

[SOLVED] JDeveloper 11g Data Controls Accordion Missing

Hello all, this is my first post in the forums. I am following the JDeveloper 11g tutorial found here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe11jdev/11/rich_client/adfrichclient.htm
However, once I get to the section "ADF Table Component and ADF Binding" step 2 tells me to open my Data Control Accordion in the Application Navigator, which I cannot find. In JDeveloper 10g you could easily open it via View | Data Control Palette (if I am not mistaken).
Inside the Application Navigator the only accordions I see are, "Projects", "Application Resources", and "Recently Opened Files". Also note that I am using the "Default Role" schema.

JDeveloper and OC4J 11g Technology Preview
You were right about this problem, I had initially started JDeveloper 11g in "Java EE" role. Eventually I changed it to "Default" role on my own via Tools | Preferences | Roles - this apparently is what caused my problem.
Being on a *nix machine I followed your instructions and ran the following command:
<jdev_home>/jdev/bin/jdev -su
I was prompted for role selection and user migration and it gave me a fresh start. I can now see my Data Controls Accordion. Big thanks!

JDeveloper - create csv data control adapter

Oracle 10.1.3.4
Following tutorial of creating data control adapter. I can see the csv file in my System Navigator but 1) can't right click to select Create Data Control AND 2) can't drag and drop csv to data control pallete. According to oracle's documentation a simple CSV data control adapter ships with JDeveloper. I can see the contents of the csv and view data in JDeveloper but can't right click on csv file to get menu 'Create data control adapter'. My goal in making the adapter will allow me to use the csv as data source to create search form and then make local table for other forms.
Therefore, proceeded with following directions:
1) created dapter-definition.xml, extension.xml then added library files to properties and followed instructions to copy files in specific directories after creating jar file containing specific files but can't locate directory oracle/adfinternal/model/adapter/sample... for several of the needed files. Attempted to make directories with needed classes so references are not blank, not working or something missing.
In attempt to work around, located another oracle jar file that contains looks to be similiar CSV Handler$1.class, CSVHandler.class, CSVParser.class, but can't find SampleDataControl.class, SampleDCAdapter.class and SampleDCDef.class? As a result, copied code from tutorial and it's still not allowing me to right click on a this node type (CSV) and select Create Data Control.
Please advise!!

Thank you so much for your reply! =)
To answer your question, I was trying to create a new adapter because I couldn't find how to use an exising one. Sure, I'll try using the existing one as it looks like this wizard will allow me to use my spreadsheet or it can be a xml file. But note this file is local, located on my hard drive. I suppose I could move it to the server if I have to. Is there a way to do this with a local file?
Thanks again Frank
