Create-Edit-Delete page using ADF Faces & Toplink

Hi,
i want to build simple apps like this one : http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2007/06/create-edit-and-delete-operations-in.html
It's using ADF BC. How could it be done using ADF Toplink ?
Thanks,
Best Regards,
Ricky

Ricky,
If you're using JDeveloper 10.1.3, take a look at the ADF learning center. Under the heading "Experienced Java Developers", on the right, you'll see a sample, tutorial and developer guide covering the ADF Faces/TopLink technology stack.

How to create a movable box using adf faces (without using oracle composer)

Hello All,
I am new to adf and i need to create a movable box . A box which the user can move anywhere he wants on the page and he should be able to minimize and maximize it.
(ex:igoogle).
According to my requirements i need to do it using adf components
any help please

Hi,
as you need to persist the user change, you will need to have a look at MDS. See 31 at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/index-101235.html
It has a createDepartments.jspx page that allows users to move the input text fields around. You can use code similar to the one used here to move panelBoxes

Howto create non-modal dialogs using ADF Faces

I would like to use Dialogs in a non-modal manner.
Trying to use
<af:commandLink useWindow="true" action="dialog:infoPopup" blocking="false">
<af:setActionListener from="#{row.xyId}" to="#{infoPopup.currentId}" />
</af:commandLink>
doesn't work as expected. I'll get the dialog, but I can't use the page behind it.
Alternatively I tried to show the page using Javascript opening the pageInfo.faces, but here I have an order problem. The onClick event is processed first and the #{infoPopup.currentId} will be populated after rendering the JSF page. But I want to show infos depending on the xyId.
Is there any other way to open windows/dialogs?
Thanks in advance
Stephan

The "blocking" attribute basically just blocks you from clicking the commandLink or commandButton twice (or more) before the first click has been processed by the server and a response has been received.
It is a very good util for avoiding those unwanted IndexOutOfBoundsExcepions when a user hits many buttons thus sending multiple requests to the server.
By the way, I'd like to see the answer to the non-modal dialog window, because we have a need for them, too.
Kind regards,
dj

How to save multiple rows using ADF faces ?!

Hello;
I am developing a search page using ADF faces (jdeveloper 10.1.3).
after building my view i dragged it as search form on my page then i dragged it again as a read only table to display results with different iterator.
I have a field act as a flag with 'Y' and 'N' value so i converted this field in the table to select boolean checkbox.
what i need is ...
after processing search operation i want to update this flag by 'Y' or 'N' (select/un-select checkbox) then click on a save button to save all result rows flag with its new status to the data base.
Wish to know how to implement that.
Thanks a lot

Searching this forum yields How to do a bound af:SelectBooleanCheckbox inside of af:Table
Hope this helps

Panel Page in ADF Faces using Facelets not rendering correctly

Hi, I am attempting to integrate facelets into a web app built using adf faces and am running into a problem with the panel page component. I have integrated facelets and adf faces without any problems by adding relevant jars (jsf-facelets and adf-facelets) to the project and specifying alternate facelets view handler in web.xml.
However, when I try to render any component inside <af:document> or <af:html> tags, all the font style in components seems to be lost ( all the text and input fields turn large and ugly!).
I tried to leave out the <af:document> tag and put the <f:view> inside some vanilla html instead, but then panelPage component dosen't render properly and I get following message on top of page :
"Skip navigation elements to page contents"
So seem to be in a bit of a catch 22. By the way, this all works fine if I don't use facelets (remove the facelets view handler from web.xml and page renders correctly).
Does anyone have any ideas or examples of panelPage rendering correctly with facelets or an alternative to using adf faces html tags that will allow panelpage to be displayed?
The following is the code from a simple test jspx page :
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='windows-1252'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.0"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:afh="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/html"
xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces"
xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets">
<f:view>
<af:document>
<af:form>
<af:panelPage title="Title 1">
<af:panelHorizontal>
<af:panelGroup layout="vertical">
<af:outputLabel value="Username"/>
<af:inputText id="lo_username" value="" columns="20"/>
<af:objectSpacer width="1" height="10"/>
<af:outputLabel value="Password"/>
<af:inputText id="lo_password" secret="true" value="" columns="20"/>
<af:objectSpacer width="1" height="15" />
<af:panelHorizontal>
<af:objectSpacer width="50" height="1"/>
<af:commandButton id="lo_loginButton" text="Login"/>
</af:panelHorizontal>
</af:panelGroup>
<af:objectSpacer width="50" height="1"/>
<af:panelGroup layout="vertical">
<af:outputLabel value="Please use your windows account username"/>
<af:outputLabel value="and password to logon to the system"/>
<af:objectSpacer width="1" height="50"/>
</af:panelGroup>
</af:panelHorizontal>
</af:panelPage>
</af:form>
</af:document>
</f:view>
</jsp:root>

The problem was the <jsp:root> tag. Removed this tag and modified <af:document> to the following so that namespaces are declared :
<af:document xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces"
xmlns:afh="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets">
Page now renders properly using facelets.

Emailing page contents as HTML using ADF faces

I have created a JSPx page contaning ADF visualizations like tables, DVT charts, gauges etc. My application needs to send the content of this rendered page as email attachment . My application will provide an email editor where user can write some text as message and it needs to attach the contents of page having tables, charts etc as attachment to this email. How this can be achieved?
using showPrintablePageBehaviour, opne my page in another browser window and from there user can copy paste the source of ths page into file and can send it as an email attachment. But I want this manual step of copy paste should not be there. Directly the page contents should be saved in html file. can this be achieved through some APIs?
I have read that emaillable pages can be created declaratively, but need some info on creating that through APIs.

The link to http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/101/howtos/adfskins/adffaces-skin.war
seems to work for me.
In any case to change the skin you are using you change the adf-faces-config.xml file.
To get it to change at runtime - just put a reference to a value in a backing bean instead of the fixed "oracle" and then change the value in the bean at runtime.

Validation messages in JSF (when not using ADF faces)

I've spent some time with JDeveloper 11 and would like to use it on an upcoming project. I have to target IE 6, so I won't be able to take advantage of ADF Faces. Instead I'd like to use the ADF Business Components with a standard JSF interface so it can be used by people still running IE 6.
I've created a Business Component from a database table and can bind a JSF HTML Creation Form by dragging the appropriate view from the AppModule in the Data Controls pane. However, when I attempt to submit the page without all the fields being valid I get the following validation error message:
j_id__ctru2:j_id__ctru6: Validation Error: Value is required. j_id__ctru2:j_id__ctru6: Validation Error: Value is required.
I've tried making this more descriptive, but editing the error message in the Validation Rules section of the Business Component has no effect. What's the best way to convey a meaningful validation message to the user when not using ADF Faces?
Also - I'm still very new to JDeveloper. Since I won't be able to rely on my users having Internet Explorer 7, would you recommend I stay with JDeveloper 10? The examples and documentation I've seen so far for JDeveloper 11 appear heavily biased towards using ADF Faces so I'm starting to wonder how much support is there for using plain old JSF.
Thanks for your time!

Hi,
if you are completely new to this then I suggest to use JDeveloper 10.1.3 and ADF Faces in there. Its good to use with IE6 as well. Currently we do have more tutorials available for this release than for 11, which for this reason is a better choice for someone new to this

Displaying BLOB image by using ADF Faces

Hi all,
I digged the forum but couldn't find any satisfied answer about displaying BLOB images by using ADF Faces.
I have insterted POJO object to Oracle database but couldn't find any way to display blob (in java byte [] ) data in POJO.
I have read the POJO object from database which contains two field; one of them is id field and other is BLOB data which holds GIF or JPG image and I want to display this image another page which contains also other fields / records ...
thanks for your answers

This thread at Sun : http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=513804&messageID=2445090
talks about two options for creating a graphicImage jsf tag. (img tag)
1. Make the img tag url refer to a servlet (instead of a static image file)
2. Embed the image into the tag as inline base64 encoded data.
2a. Use an <Object> tag with inline data.
1. Looks a bit complex for a simple problem.
2 and 2a don't work with some browsers.
- And I've not yet figured out how to hook into the ADF Faces table-rendering logic to get it to add my image column. My table binds to a collection DataControl, [which in turn retrieves from a findAllItems call on a session facade, which uses my domain model, and wraps up access to a TopLink pesistence layer]. The framework just ignores my byte[] attribute when creating the jsf table from the DataControl. All string, int etc. attributes get represented correctly in the jsf table output.

Problem with a example of "Developing and Using ADF Faces Skins"

Hi, I've tried the example "Developing and Using ADF Faces Skins", but when I run the sample.jspx page and choose the skin "MyCompany" in the select skin I obtain the next message:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.ui.laf.simple.desktop.SideBarRenderer._getIconData(SideBarRenderer.java:393)
at oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.ui.laf.simple.desktop.SideBarRenderer.prerender(SideBarRenderer.java:83)
at oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.ui.BaseRenderer.render(BaseRenderer.java:79)
Could somebody help me?
Thanks a lot ;-)

Hi there,
I had the same issue last friday.
It's probably because you are using JDeveloper 10.1.3.2 instead of 10.1.3.0 or 10.1.3.1 for which the example is made.
I haven't been able to fix this yet, other then by commenting out the this part of the css.

Question on "Master Detail page using ADF" sample

I downloaded the "Master Detail page using ADF" sample application. I modified editDepartment.jsp page to include the Commit button as follows:
<html:submit property="event_Commit">Save and Commit</html:submit>
When I go to edit a department record and click on the new "Save and Commit" button, I SQLed the DEPARTMENTS table and noticed that the edits were not commited. I also restarted the embedded OC4J server and still get the same results. For some reason, the department view object contains the modification but the entity object doesn't. Why?

Scott,
My colleague suggested a workaround, which is to explicitly include the detail table's id in the master table's partialTargets list. So, for example, in MasterDetailDP.uix, changing:
<table model="${bindings.DepartmentsView1}"
       id="DepartmentsView111"
       partialRenderMode="multiple"
       partialTargets="_uixState">to:
<table model="${bindings.DepartmentsView1}"
       id="DepartmentsView111"
       partialRenderMode="multiple"
       partialTargets="_uixState EmployeesView312">...will cause the detail table to be updated when sorting the master table.
There is some question about whether sorting a table should actually cause the currently selected row to change - we're still discussing this point.

Problem in Developing and Using ADF Faces Skins sample

sample.jspx dose not have “Select Skin” box as the document shown.
I am trying the sample project downloaded from sample WAR file - adffaces_skin.war in article “Developing and Using ADF Faces Skins”.
In paragraph “Changing the Color Schema of a Skin”
sample.jspx has a “Select Skin” box to allow user to select “Simple” or “MyCompany”. (in JSP Visual Editor)
However, it does not show on the project built from downloaded from sample WAR file (adffaces_skin.war).

After reading the whole document, I realize it is my mistake.
The box will be created after all user skins setting.
The sample works.
Only thing need to remind is for later version Jdeveloper, Application Worksapce in only for early version Jdeveloper. All the version after 10g 1.3 EA1, Only have Application.

JDeveloper popup window using ADF Faces

Has anyone actually managed to get a popup window working properly using ADF Faces? I have slavishly copied examples from the Developer's Guide, but nothing works - I never get a popup window appearing.

I'm back again and unfortunately I haven't got this to work. I've scaled down my jsp to just include enough to test the pop-up functionality.
First here's the code from my jsp page(index.jsp):
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<afh:head title="JSF Test Pop-up Page">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/>
<meta name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="true"/>
</afh:head>
<afh:body>
<af:commandLink text="Test Pop-up" action="dialog:test" useWindow="true"/>
</afh:body>
</afh:html>
</f:view>
and here's a copy of faces-config.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<!DOCTYPE faces-config PUBLIC
"-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD JavaServer Faces Config 1.1//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-facesconfig_1_1.dtd">
<faces-config xmlns="http://java.sun.com/JSF/Configuration">
<application>
<default-render-kit-id>oracle.adf.core</default-render-kit-id>
</application>

<navigation-rule>
<from-view-id>/index.jsp</from-view-id>
<navigation-case>
<from-outcome>dialog:test</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>/results.jsp</to-view-id>
</navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>
</faces-config>
According to the docs on ADF Dialog Framework this is all I need to have in place in order for it to work. What am I missing?
Thanks again to all replies.

ADF without using ADF-Faces

I'm starting a new project and I want to combine the use of ADF without using adf-faces in other words I want to connect to the Oracle data base through ADF while building my own beans.

Well I'm still having problems with "ADF without using ADF-Faces" so I went back and found documentation:
Oracle® Application Development Framework
Developer’s Guide
10g Release 3 (10.1.3)
B25386-01
However I came to point where I was confused with the TopLink documentation on 3.7 Querying Objects where it said:
You cannot configure the sort criteria of a TopLink query from Oracle JDeveloper. You
must write a Java method, using descriptor amendment method. See Section 3.3.3.2,
"Using Amendment Methods" for more information.
I find this hard to fathom would you not want to sort the dataset on a JSF table?
The link takes you to a statement that has nothing to do with Sorting.

ADF FACES: HTML template text Layout is broken when uses ADF Faces tags

This works fine:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"%>

<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<f:view>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></meta>
</head>
<body>
<h:form>
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td width="45%">
<h:dataTable rows="5" bgcolor="Red" value="#{class1.names}" var="name">
<h:column>
<h:outputText value="#{name}"/>
</h:column>
<h:column>
<h:outputText value="#{name}"/>
</h:column>
</h:dataTable>
</td>
<td width="55%">
<h:inputText/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</h:form>
</body>
</html>
</f:view>
=> a table is rendered with one row and two columns; in the first column the data table is rendered in the second the inputText
Changing to ADF Faces tags breaks the layout:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/EA11" prefix="af"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/EA11/html" prefix="afh"%>
<f:view>
<afh:html>
<afh:head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></meta>
</afh:head>
<afh:body>
<af:form>
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>
<af:table rows="5" value="#{class1.names}" var="name">
<af:column>
<h:outputText value="#{name}"/>
</af:column>
<af:column>
<h:outputText value="#{name}"/>
</af:column>
</af:table>
</td>
<td>
<h:inputText/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</af:form>
</afh:body>
</afh:html>
</f:view>
=> at the begin of the page an empty table is rendered; below the data table is rendered and below the inputText
It think it should be possible to layout the page with HTML template text and use ADF Faces tags.

As of EA12 (and EA13) <afh:body> is what is known as a "rendersChildren" tag. It needs to do so in order to support partial-page rendering This means that template text inside it needs to be wrapped inside <f:verbatim>.
For later releases of ADF Faces, I've filed an enhancement request to loosen up this restriction for <afh:body>.

Create Edit Delete in Oops ALV

Hi Experts,
I need to create an ALV which will provide all the functionality of Create, Edit, Save and Delete records and update the Custom table accordingly.
I want to design it as follows -
1. Display should be in non-ediatble mode initially (because I don't want to make it completely ediatble at all times)
2. When the user clicks Create button a new line appends at the bottom and the ALV has to be made editable, for the values to be entered at the new row appended.
3. When the user presses Save, again the ALV goes into non-ediatble mode.
4. When the user presses Edit Button, the ALV is open for editing and again the whole ALV is editable. After Editing, the user will select those particular lines through Box Button and Press on Save Button to enable those particular lines to be modified and saved in ALV. Again at the press of Save button, the ALV will switch to Non-modifiable view.
5. For Deletion, select the particular line/lines through Box Button and Click on Delete.
This is how I plan to achieve the Create, Edit, Delete Functionality.
Can you please confirm the feasibilty of this Design, whether it is achievable.
There is some option of dynamically changing the Field Catalogue. If it is there, I'm thinking of utilising it for switching the modes on click of Create, Edit and Save Buttons. Click/Edit --> Modifiable. Save --> Non-modifiable.
Please do give your comments on the above functionality and feasibility. If you are knowing a different or easy approach please do share it. If you have done it then please do share it.
Thanks & Regards
Tanu
