Displayin multiple values from a LIST using useBean

Hi,
I want to display certain values in a drop-down box that are retrieved from a getter method in a bean.
First of all... Is this possible? if so please help... in dire need to know situation...
any alternative way help is also welcome.....

Fragment 1
This is the JSP Code am using for testing
<%
String[] name =request.getParameterValues("D1");
if(name.length==1)
String value=name[0];
Instead of name.lenght==1 try with name!=null
Fragment 2
out.println(value);
replace the above fragment with
%>
<%-- print result -->
<%=name[0]%>
<%
Fragment 3
else
%>
The list box D1 is a multiple select list box.
If it still doesn't work, check that the checkboxes have the same name as well as different values
<input type="checkbox" name="D1" value="1">
<input type="checkbox" name="D1" value="2">I hope this helps :-)
Good luck

How to get multiple values from the list

I've a list of an item which I queried it from the database. I also created a button that will takes a selected items from the list when it was clicked. I used javabean to get the data from database.
<%     // clicked on Select District Button
Vector vselectedDistrict = new Vector();
Vector vdistrictID = new Vector();
String tmpSelectDistrict = "";
tmpSelectDistrict = request.getParameter("bSelectDistrict");
if(tmpSelectDistrict != null)
     // get multiple values from the list
     String[] selectedDistrict = request.getParameterValues("usrTDistrict");
     vselectedDistrict.clear();
     vdistrictID.clear();
     if((selectedDistrict != null) && (selectedDistrict.length != 0))
                       for(int i=0;i<selectedDistrict.length;i++)
               vselectedDistrict.addElement(selectedDistrict);
          vdistrictID = dbaseInfo.getcurrentDistrictID(nstate,vselectedDistrict);
          for(int i=0;i<vdistrictID.size();i++)
               out.println("district = " + selectedDistrict[i]);                         out.println("district ID= " + vdistrictID.get(i).toString());
%>
// get vdistrict from the database here......
<select name="usrTDistrict" size="5" multiple>
<%     for(int i = 0; i< vdistrict.size(); i++)
%>
     <option value="<%=vdistrict.get(i).toString()%>"><%=vdistrict.get(i).toString()%></option>
<%
%>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="bSelectDistrict" value="Select District">
Lets say the item that i selected from the list is 'Xplace' and I clicked on the Select District button,
what I got is this error message:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to convert string 'Xplace' to class java.util.Vector for attribute usrTDistrict: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Property Editor not registered with the PropertyEditorManager
So where is going wrong and what the message means?. Any help very much appreciated. Thanks

These are just guesses that might hopefully steer you in directions you haven't looked in yet.
I presume you used triangle brackets (< >) to avoid having the Jive Forum think it was the "italics" tag?
Are you certain this: dbaseInfo.getcurrentDistrictID(nstate,vselectedDistrict);
expects a Vector as its second parameter? And returns a Vector?
I don't believe you've shown how you use the javabean, or its code? Perhaps it should be rewritten to accept an array of strings instead of a Vector?

Assigning multiple values from a List of Values at detail (table) level

Hi,
I have a master detail entry screen. I want to assign multiple values when end user selects an item from the list. The field is at detail level (Table type). I can do it using the "Select one choice" type component (ADF Faces Core) but it doesnt retain the value when I go to the next record. This type of component works fine with the screen with only one record to show (form type). This component has binding with list type.
If I use simple list with Table binding, I can not assign values to multiple items. This type of list retains value when record is changed.
Can anyone help me resolving this issue?
Thanks,

Return multiple values from a list box

hi I have a listBox (<mx:List>) that is populated by a
webService acting as its dataProvider ("myDataProvider")......
within the listBox the value shown from the dataProvider is
the "customerName", there is also a customerID values within the
dataProvider.
I have set the "allowMultipleSelection" equal to true so that
more than one row / value can be selected.
I want to retrieve all of the ID (customerID) valause from
all of the selected rows within the listBox.
if I use the following:
var myObj:Object = new Object;
myObj.id = myListt.selectedItem.CUSTOMERID;
it works - but only returns 1 single ID value (the first
selected etc) when I change "selectedItem" to "selectedItems" it
does not return anything:
var myObj:Object = new Object;
myObj.id = myListt.selectedItems.CUSTOMERID;
can anyone help me out here.... ?
thanks,
Jon.

Thanks. I forgot to post the answer. I did use an Array, but
since I needed a string of IDs only, I had to loop through the
Array to build the comma-sep string.
public function mySelections():void
var loopList:String = "";
var selectedLoops:Array = patchedLoops.selectedItems;
for ( var i:int; i < selectedLoops.length; i ++) {
loopList = loopList + selectedLoops
.CategoryID + ",";
si.text = loopList;
This worked great, but before I could submit to the database
I had to strip off the trailing comma in my CFC.
<cfset str_patchedloops = Left(str,Len(str)-1)

Getting unique values from a list using XSL

I have a requirement to dynamically generate a unique list of categories that will be used to populate a drop-down box.
The XML that is being sent is in a format similar to this...
<item>
<title>random text1</title>
<category>research</category>
<category>marketing</category>
<category>industry</category>
</item>
<item>
<title>random text2</title>
<category>research</category>
<category>development</category>
</item>
<item>
<title>random text3</title>
<category>marketing</category>
<category>fishing</category>
<category>hunting</category>
<category>development</category>
</item>
What i need is to be able to generate a list of all the unique "category" items, without having any duplicates.... eg in the example above, the list would be "marketing, fishing, hunting, research, development, industry"
I've been using the following xsl, which works, but only when there is a single <category> in each <item> node, but i cant work out how to extend this to look at ALL the categories in the <item>. When i add additional <category> nodes, the xsl stops processing them. There was a lot of trial and error to get this far, but really struggling to get any further.
<xsl:param name="cat">all</xsl:param>
<xsl:key name="uniqueCategoryKey" match="item" use="./category"/>
<select name="cat">
<option value="all">all</option>
     <xsl:for-each select="//item[generate-id() = generate-id(key('uniqueCategoryKey', ./category))]">
          <xsl:choose>
               <xsl:when test="$cat = category">
                    <option selected="{category}"><xsl:value-of select="category"/></option>
               </xsl:when>
               <xsl:otherwise>
                    <option value="{category}"><xsl:value-of select="category"/></option>
               </xsl:otherwise>
          </xsl:choose>
     </xsl:for-each>
</select>
Any help appreciated on how to proceed
Thanks

Try changing these two lines:
<xsl:key name="uniqueCategoryKey" match="/" use="/item/category"/>
<xsl:for-each select="//[generate-id() = generate-id(key('uniqueCategoryKey', /item/category))]">And go back and read the article which you got the <xsl:key> idea from. It should explain why it did things that way. Understand that explanation and you should be able to modify the code to do what you like.

[UIX] How To: Return multiple values from a LOV

Hi gang
I've been receiving a number of queries via email on how to return multiple items from a LOV using UIX thanks to earlier posts of mine on OTN. I'm unfortunately aware my previous posts on this are not that clear thanks to the nature of the forums Q&A type approach. So I thought I'd write one clear post, and then direct any queries to it from now on to save me time.
Following is my solution to this problem. Please note it's just one method of many in skinning a cat. It's my understanding via chatting to Oracle employees that LOVs are to be changed in a future release of JDeveloper to be more like Oracle Forms LOVs, so my skinning skills may be rather bloody & crude very soon (already?).
I'll base my example on the hr schema supplied with the standard RDBMS install.
Say we have an UIX input-form screen to modify an employees record. The employees record has a department_id field and a fk to the departments table. Our requirement is to build a LOV for the department_id field such that we can link the employees record to any department_id in the database. In turn we want the department_name shown on the employees input form, so this must be returned via the LOV too.
To meet this requirement follow these steps:
1) In your ADF BC model project, create 2 EOs for employees and departments.
2) Also in your model, create 2 VOs for the same EOs.
3) Open your employees VO and create a new attribute DepartmentName. Check selected in query. In expressions type (SELECT dept.department_name FROM departments dept WHERE dept.department_id = employees.department_id). Check Updateable always.
4) Create a new empty UIX page in your ViewController project called editEmployees.uix.
5) From the data control palette, drag and drop EmployeesView1 as an input-form. Notice that the new field DepartmentName is also included in the input-form.
6) As the DepartmentName will be populated either from querying existing employees records, or via the LOV, disable the field as the user should not have the ability to edit it.
7) Select the DepartmentId field and delete it. In the UI Model window delete the DepartmentId binding.
8) From the data controls palette, drag and drop the DepartmentId field as a messageLovInput onto your page. Note in your application navigator a new UIX page lovWindow0.uix (or similar) has been created for you.
9) While the lovWindow0.uix is still in italics (before you save it), rename the file to departmentsLov.uix.
10) Back in your editEmployees.uix page, your messageLovInput source will look like the following:
<messageLovInput
    model="${bindings.DepartmentId}"
    id="${bindings.DepartmentId.path}"
    destination="lovWindow0.uix"/>Change it to be:
<messageLovInput
    model="${bindings.DepartmentId}"
    id="DepartmentId"
    destination="departmentsLov.uix"
    partialRenderMode="multiple"
    partialTargets="_uixState DepartmentName"/>11) Also change your DepartmentName source to look like the following:
<messageTextInput
    id=DepartmentName
    model="${bindings.DepartmentName}"
    columns="10"
    disabled="true"/>12) Open your departmentsLov.uix page.
13) In the data control palette, drag and drop the DepartmentId field of the DepartmentView1 as a LovTable into the Results area on your page.
14) Notice in the UI Model window that the 3 binding controls have been created for you, an iterator, a range and a binding for DepartmentId.
15) Right click on the DepartmentsLovUIModel node in the UI Model window, then create binding, display, and finally attribute. The attribute binding editor will pop up. In the select-an-iterator drop down select the DepartmentsView1Iterator. Now select DepartmentName in the attribute list and then the ok button.
16) Note in the UI Model you now have a new binding called DCDefaultControl. Select this, and in the property palette change the Id to DepartmentName.
17) View the LOV pages source, and change the lovUpdate event as follows:
<event name="lovSelect">
    <compound>
        <set value="${bindings.DepartmentId.inputValue}" target="${sessionScope}" property="MyAppDepartmentId" />
        <set value="${bindings.DepartmentName.inputValue}" target="${sessionScope}" property="MyAppDepartmentName" />
    </compound>
</event>18) Return to editEmployees.uix source, and modify the lovUpdate event to look as follows:
<event name="lovUpdate">
    <compound>
        <set value="${sessionScope.MyAppDepartmentId}" target="${bindings.DepartmentId}" property="inputValue"/>
        <set value="${sessionScope.MyAppDepartmentName}" target="${bindings.DepartmentName}" property="inputValue"/>
    </compound>
</event>Thats it. Now when you select a value in your LOV, it will return 2 (multiple!) values.
A couple things to note:
1) In the messageLovInput id field we dont use the .path notation. This is mechanism for returning 1 value from the LOV and is useless for us.
2) Again in the messageLovInput we supply _uixState as an entry in the partialTargets.
3) We are relying on partial-page-refresh functionality to update multiple items on the screen.
Im not going to take the time out to explain these 3 points, but its worthwhile you learning more about them, especially the last 2, as a separate exercise.
One other useful thing to do is, in your messageLovInput, include as a last entry in the partialTargets list MessageBox. In turn locate the messageBox control on your page (if any), and supply an id=MessageBox. This will allow the LOV to place any errors raised in the MessageBox and show them to the user.
I hope this works for you :)
Cheers,
CM.

Thanks Chris,
It took me some time to find the information I needed, how to use return multiple values from a LOV popup window, then I found your post and all problems were solved. Its working perfectly, well, almost perfectly.
Im always fighting with ADF-UIX, it never does the thing that I expect it to do, I guess its because I have a hard time letting go of the total control you have as a developer and let the framework take care of a few things.
Anyway, I'm using your example to fill 5 fields at once, one of the fields being a messageChoice (a list with countries) with a LOV to a lookup table (id , country).
I return the countryId from the popup LOV window, that works great, but it doesn't set the correct value in my messageChoice . I think its because its using the CountryId for the listbox index.
So how can I select the correct value inside my messageChoice? Come to think of it, I dont realy think its LOV related...
Can someone help me out out here?
Kind regards

How to return multiple values from dialog popup

hi all
I'm using ADF 10g. I have a requirement that I have to return multiple values from a dialog.
I have a page containing a table with a button which calls the dialog. The dialog contains a multi-select table where i want to select multiple records and add them to the table in the calling page.
In the backing bean of the calling page, I have the returnListener method.
I am thinking that I have to store the selected rows from dialog in an array and return that array to the returnListener...but I don't know how to go about it with the code.
Can someone help me out with it?
thanks

Hi Frank,
I'm trying to implement your suggestion but getting comfused.
AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().returnFromDialog(null, hashMap) is called in ActionListener method, from what I understood.
ReturnListener method already calls it, so no need to call explicitly.
Okay here's what i'm doing.
command button launches the dialog on the calling page.
In the dialog page, there is a button "select", which when i click, closes the dialog and returns to calling page. I put a af:returnActionListener on this button, which logically should have a corresponding ReturnListener() in the calling page backing bean.
Now I have 3 questions:
1. do i have to use ActionListener or ReturnListener?
2. where do I create the hashMap? Is it in the backing bean of the dialog or in the one of calling page?
3. how do I retrieve the keys n values from hashmap?
please help! thanks
This is found in the backing bean of calling page:

In my scenirio i have to facth multiple values from XML file and then set in to Table in webdynpro...
Fo example my xml has values like...

How to do taht in webdynpro and does any one have parser code for retriving multiple values...

Hi,
1) You need to use JDOM parser.
2) The code for parsing XML using JDOM parser is readily available if you search on google.
3) You will have to check the attribute during every parsing and then if attribute is quantity you can fetch the corresponding tags.
4) Something similar to this:
org.jdom.Document document = parser.build(file);
                org.jdom.Element rootElement = document.getRootElement();
                org.jdom.Element childElement = rootElement.getChild("file");
                Element xmlElement = childElement.getChild("item");
                if (xmlElement != null) {
                    List itemElementsList = xmlElement.getChildren("item1");
                    if (itemElementsList != null) {
                        Iterator iterator3 = itemElementsList.iterator();
                        while (iterator3.hasNext()) {
                            //For each group get quantity
                            Element itemElement = (Element) iterator3.next();
                            List quantityElementsList =
                                    itemElement.getChildren("quantity");
                            if (quantityElementsList != null) {
                                Iterator iterator2 =
                                        quantityElementsList.iterator();
                                while (iterator2.hasNext()) {
// Your code
You might need to make some changes as per your rquirement. Just use this sample to understand how you need to parse the xml
Hope it helps.

How to get actual value from LOV list

Like Subject says: How to get actual value from LOV list. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks Shay, I did it with bind variable because I'm not using JSF. Is there any chance to post solution using standard JSTL or HTML expression. I have something like this: LOV displays some Companies names:
<html:select property="UserJobCompanyId"
                         disabled="${!bindings[\'UserJobCompanyId\'].updateable}"
                         onchange="submitform();">
              <html:optionsCollection label="prompt" value="index" property="UserJobCompanyId.displayData"/>
            </html:select>and I want to get CompanyID of selected Company.
Thanks, again.

and also I am able to handle multiple values the in the query by using IN :Parameter, but seems when we select more than one value from the parameter drop down i think the Bi Publisher is sending the values in concatenated form something ilke
ex: "'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'" ,and when trying to display the parameters values in the output, its throwing the error as 'missing right paranthesis' ....on the whole do you have any solution which would handle
1.Single selection.
2.Multiple selection.
3.'ALL' Values.
4.Separating the concatenated string into individual strings and dispaly them on the output of the report..etc..in case of Mulitple selection.
Ex:
Concatenated String from BI Publisher:"'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'"
Expected Output on the report:ACCOUNT,HR,SALES
reply to this would be much appreciated....
thanks,
manoj
