Confusion in ADF command link settings - *URGENT* pls help

Question

Hi All,
I have a table named 'Action' in which, the first column is ActionId. I have turned the first column into a command link. On clicking this link, it will show a popup in which i can see the current action details.
My code is as below.
<af:table value="#{bindings.OePdActionView1.collectionModel}"
var="row"
rows="#{bindings.OePdActionView1.rangeSize}"
emptyText="#{bindings.OePdActionView1.viewable ? 'No data to display.' : 'Access Denied.'}"
fetchSize="#{bindings.OePdActionView1.rangeSize}"
rowBandingInterval="0"

Now the problem is , I have a 'Create new Action' button , click on which , I can insert a new row to the 'Action' table. Since i have converted this 'ActionId' column into a command link, i couldnt enter any value in the newly created row. Whereas i can give values for the other columns and save the changes.
Please tell me some idea, so that i could use the 'Actionid' field as command link and also support editing operations.
Thanks in advance,

Answer 1

Can i have one more issue..
Its like..
In the Actions Table, i have set my 'Actionid' column as mandatory.
So when i click on 'create new row' button , it creates a new row. Whereas suppose if i wish to delete that row without entering any value, then its asking for some value to be entered in the mandatory field.
So i wish to change the 'mandatory' property of that column at runtime, when the 'delete' button is clicked. So that viewObject.removeCurrentRow() will be done. Then again.. in the next statement, i wil reset the mandatory to true. pls see my code below.
DCControlBinding cb =
(DCControlBinding)getBindings().get("OePdActionView1");
ViewObject vo = cb.getViewObject();
// vo.<someSetHintForMandatory>("false");
vo.removeCurrentRow();
// vo.<someSetHintForMandatory>("false");
This is my idea to solve the pbm. Please help me if there is some other solution. Or else, kindly tell me the way to change the 'mandatory' property at runtime.
Thanks,
Sabarisri. N
