How do I make a view object containing two entity objects updatable?

I have a view object that contains attributes from two entity objects. The query looks like this
SELECT AplCfgPartyEO.ID,
AplCfgPartyEO.ID_HRM_BRW_JOB,
HrmBrwJobEO.CREATED_BY,
HrmBrwJobEO.CREATION_DATE,
HrmBrwJobEO.ID AS ID1,
HrmBrwJobEO.ID_HRM_BAS_JOB_TYPE,
HrmBrwJobEO.JOB_NO,
HrmBrwJobEO.MODIFIED_BY,
HrmBrwJobEO.MODIFY_DATE,
HrmBrwJobEO.ORIGIN,
HrmBrwJobEO.PICTURE
FROM APL_CFG_PARTY AplCfgPartyEO, HRM_BRW_JOB HrmBrwJobEO
WHERE AplCfgPartyEO.ID_HRM_BRW_JOB = HrmBrwJobEO.ID
My problem is that I am only allowed to update the attributes from the AplCfgPartyEO entity object while the attributes from the HrmBrwJobEO entity object become read only. I want to be able to update all of the attributes how do I do that?

If someone will read this later I can inform them that I am using Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.0.2 at the moment. Thanks Chris, your answer solved my problem but I was a little surprised though that it wasn´t updatable by default.

How to reference the Parent view Object attribute in Child View object

Hi , I have the requirememt to generate Tree like struture to display Salary from joining date to retirement date in yearly form.I have writtent two Pl/SQL function to return parent node and child nodes(based on selected year).
1.First function --> Input paramter (employee id, retirement date , joining date) --> return parent node row with start_date and end_date
2. 2nd function --> input paarmter(employee id, startDate, end_date) --> return child node based on selected parent node i.e. start date and end date
I have created two ADF view object based on two function return
Parent Node --> select * from Table( EUPS.FN_GET_CONTR_SAL_BY_YR(employeeId,retirement Date, dateOf joining)) ;
Child Node --> select * FROM TABLE( EUPS.FN_GET_CONTR_SAL_FOR_YEAR( employeId,startDate, endDate) ) based on selected parent node.
I am giving binding variable as input for 2nd function (child node) . I don't know how to reference the binding variable value in child view from parent view.
Like I have to refernce employeId,startDate, endDate values in 2nd function from parent view object. some thing like parentNode.selectedStart_date parentNode.employeeId.
I know we can achive this writing the code in backing bean.But i want to know how can we refernce parent view object attribute values in child view object using Groovy or otherway?
I will appreciate your help.
Thanks

I have two view com.ContractualSalaryByYearlyView for Parent Node and com.ContractualSalaryByYearlyView for child Node.
I have created view link(ContractualSalYearlyByYearViewLink) betweem two view by giving common field empId, stDate , endDate.(below is the view link xml file).
I tried give the binding attribute values using parent object reference like below in com.ContractualSalaryByYearlyView xml file but getting error
Variable ContractualSalaryByYearlyView not recognized.I think i am using groovy expression.

Perhaps it’s a design feature to speed up the Organizer launch.
I am sure it is.
- The normal use of the Organizer is not the folder view, it's the thumbnail view with an organization based on categories and folder. That way you should forget completely where your pictures are stored. Anyway, the folder view in the Explorer is not a map of the location of the different bits of your file, it's only a logical representation. That's easy to see when you are doing a defragmentation.
- The folder view is useful even for those using normally the thumbnail view, but that is only for rare cases when you must change the folder organization, for instance moving files to another drive. The folder view is here to prevent you from changing things from the explorer and outside of the Organizer.
- The new folder list view, which you find 'funny' is there to help better organizing using tags. Its huge advantage is that such a view is created extremely quickly by extracting the last subfolder in the media table : it's the way the database sees the folders, based on its own content, totally ignoring the complex folder organization of your disk with media files or any unrelated other kind of data. You should use it in many cases, the main purpose being assigning tags when you have assigned descriptive folder names. I had suggested such a solution to prevent the long standing bugs in the folder view of previous versions.
So yes, the purpose is:
- to speed up switching modes
- to help folder organization fans to migrate to tags organization
- to hopefully get rid of the old folder organization bugs

How can I make a server differ between two or more clients?

How can I make a server differ between two or more clients?
The clients can connect and talk to the server fine, but how can I make the server talk to one, two or all clients? i.e. what would be a good way to implement this?
Currently, the server listens for connections like this:
while (listening) {
try {
new ServerThread(this, serverSocket.accept()).start();
I guess one way would be to add the ServerThreads to a Hashtable with the client ID as key, and then get the ServerThread with the proper client ID, but this seems unnecessary complicated. Any ideas?

Complicated was perhaps the wrong word, I should have
written something like it doesn't "feel" right. Or is
this a common and good way to solve communication
between a server and multiple clients?Thats pretty much how I do it. I normally use an array or ArrayList of Sockets instead of HashTable, with [0] being the first player etc.... Then you can communicate with exactly who you want. If you want to send bytes to all of them, just send the same thing to each socket individually (or is there a better way to do this?).

How To change the ADF View Object query where-clause at RunTime?

I am trying to create a simple display page which will display user data (username, assoc_dist_id, assoc_agent_id, status , etc). The User data is stored in a database table and i am using an ADF Read Only table based on the View Object to display the data on the JSF page.
However, i want to display only the users that a particular person accessing the page has the AUTH LEVEL to see. e.g. If the person accessing the page is an 'ApplicationAdministrator' then the page should display all users in the table, If its a 'DistributorAdministrator' then the page should display only users associated with that Distributor (i.e. assoc_dist_id = :p_Dist_id ) and If its an 'AgentAdministrator' , then the page should display only users associated with that Agent ( i.e. assoc_agent_id = :p_Agent_id).
Currently my af:table component displays all the users in the table because the query for the view object is (select * from users) . However, i want to use the same viewobject and just set the where-clause at runtime with the appropriate parameter to restrict the dataset returned.
Do anyone knows how to accomplish this ?

David,
See the custom method initializeDynamicVariableDefaults() in the SRViewObjectImpl.java class in the FrameworkExtentions project in the SRDemoSampleADFBC sample application. You can find out how to install the demo if you haven't already from the ADF Learning Center at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/adf/learnadf.html
This class is a framework extension class for view objects that adds a neat, generic feature to be able to dynamic default the value of named bind variables. You can read more about what framework extension classes are and how to use them in Chapter 25, "Advanced Business Components Techniques" of the ADF Developer's Guide for Forms/4GL Developers, also available at the learning center above.
It is an example of generic framework functionality that "kicks in" based on the presence of custom metadata properties on a named bind variable. See section 25.3.3 "Implementing Generic Functionality Driven by Custom Properties" in the dev guide for more details. Using this sample code, if you add a bind variable to a view object, and define a custom metadata property named "DynamicDefaultValue" on that bind variable, and set this custom metadata property to the value "CurrentUser", then that bind variable will have its value dynamically defaulted to the name of the authenticated user logged in. If instead you set this custom property to the value "UserRole", then the bind variable will be set to the comma-separated string containing the list of roles that the authenticated user is part of.
Once you've created a framework extension class for view objects like this, you can have the view objects you create inherit this generic functionality.See section 25.1.4 "How to Base an ADF Component on a Framework Extension Class" in the dev guide for more info on this.
By adapting a technique like this (or some idea similar that better suits your needs) you can have your view object query contain bind variables whose values automatically take on the defaults based on something in the user-session environment.

How to reset a particular view object alone to it's initial state??

Hi,
My application contains view objects with custom data source implementation. One of my requirement is to reset the particular view object alone to it's initial state. I can't use rollback since it is at Db Transaction level. I searched in forums and finally written the following coding to achieve it. It works fine during sometime but sometimes i am getting the exception oracle.jbo.DeadEntityAccessException: JBO-27101: Attempt to access dead entity in Person, key=oracle.jbo.Key[1 -10 ]
    public void resetPersonViewObject(String voName) {
        Iterator dirtyItr = this.getEntityDef(0).getAllEntityInstancesIterator(this.getDBTransaction());
        while (dirtyItr.hasNext()) {
            Object obj = dirtyItr.next();
            if (obj instanceof EntityImpl) {
                EntityImpl entity = (EntityImpl)obj;
                String state = null;
                byte entityState = entity.getEntityState();
                switch (entityState) {
                case Entity.STATUS_INITIALIZED:
                    state = "Initialized";
                    // Don't do anything
                    break;
                case Entity.STATUS_UNMODIFIED:
                    state = "Un-Modified";
                    // Don't do anything
                case Entity.STATUS_DEAD:
                    state = "Dead";
                    // Don't do anything

                case Entity.STATUS_DELETED:
                    state = "Deleted";
                    entity.revert();
                    // entity.refresh(Entity.REFRESH_CONTAINEES);
                    break;
                case Entity.STATUS_MODIFIED:
                    state = "Modified";
                    entity.refresh(Entity.REFRESH_UNDO_CHANGES);
                    break;
                case Entity.STATUS_NEW:
                    state = "New";
                    entity.refresh(Entity.REFRESH_FORGET_NEW_ROWS);
                    entity.refresh(Entity.REFRESH_REMOVE_NEW_ROWS);
                    break;
                System.err.println("State : " + state);
        getDBTransaction().clearEntityCache(getEntityDef(0).getFullName());
        getViewObject().clearCache();
}Questions:
1. How to achieve my requirement? Is there any code correction required?
2. How to reset the row which is actually deleted by the user?
3. The sample code shown above is applicable for all the view object instances which are created from the same entity? What should i do if i want to reset a particular instance of a view object (I may use different instance of same view object at various screens whereas i want to reset only one)
Can anyone help on this??
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
As per my requirement, i use various instances of same view object in various dynamic tabs only. Since each tab has its own transaction, refreshing an EO of a particular transaction will refresh only the VO instances which comes under that transaction. So it will not cause any issue for my requirement i hope.
Requirement: Need to reset a particular entity driven view object instances.
Tried Schema: Departments table of HR Schema. Tried using the Application Module tester.
Code i use:
    // Client Interface method of DepartmentsViewImpl
    public void resetView() {
        Iterator dirtyItr =
            this.getEntityDef(0).getAllEntityInstancesIterator(this.getDBTransaction());
        while (dirtyItr.hasNext()) {
            Object obj = dirtyItr.next();
            if (obj instanceof EntityImpl) {
                EntityImpl entity = (EntityImpl)obj;
                byte entityState = entity.getEntityState();
                switch (entityState) {
                case Entity.STATUS_UNMODIFIED:
                    break;
                case Entity.STATUS_INITIALIZED:
                    break;
                case Entity.STATUS_DEAD:
                    break;
                case Entity.STATUS_DELETED:
                    entity.refresh(Entity.REFRESH_WITH_DB_FORGET_CHANGES);
                    break;
                case Entity.STATUS_MODIFIED:
                    entity.refresh(Entity.REFRESH_UNDO_CHANGES);
                    break;
                case Entity.STATUS_NEW:
                    entity.refresh(Entity.REFRESH_FORGET_NEW_ROWS);
                    entity.refresh(Entity.REFRESH_REMOVE_NEW_ROWS);
                    break;
        getDBTransaction().clearEntityCache(getEntityDef(0).getFullName());
        getViewObject().clearCache();
Issue i have:
1. Add a blank row (Soon transaction has become dirty). Call the resetView() client interface. It gives me JBO-25303: Cannot clear entity cache model.eo.Departments because it has modified rows
2. Modify any row and then delete the same row. Call the resetView(). It gives me JBO-27101: Attempt to access dead entity in Departments, key=oracle.jbo.Key[10 ]
[NOTE: Above code works fine when for simple deletion of rows, modification of existing rows, new rows]

How can I make tree view for hierarchical data from select with connect by?

If we have selected hierachy with connect by clause, how can we make it to see in tree view?

You can't do this using the ADF, Tree Binding used by JHeadstart.
However, If you have a recursive relationship (for example managerid) you can get a tree what you want as follows:
- create one root ViewObject that returns the top-level employees without a manager by setting the where clause to managerid=null
- create a second ViewObject that simply queries all employees
- Create a ViewLink between the two view objects, and create a nested VO usage in the app module for the second view object
- Create corresponding nested group in the application definition file and set the layout style to "tree-form" on both groups.
See Developers Guide, chapter 3, section recursive trees for more info.

How to prevent creation of view object rows when using browser refresh butt

HI i have the following problem:
I have a creation form using a partial submition. The problem is that if i have entered some value by using autosubmit , this value will be setted as attribute in the ViewObject . After that if i click refresh button of the browser then the new Row of the view object will be created and i will have a pending row with setted attribute. So if execute commit then the both rows will be tried to commit. How can i prevent this?

Hi,
If i've understood you have a invokeAction that create a new row, right? If yes put on condition that it invokeAction won't invoke if is a postback.
Let me know if i miss understand your doubt.

How to retrieve rows in view object and display on UI

Hi All,
I am new to ADF. i am using jdeveloper11.1.1.5.0 . Here is my scenario.
In my AM i have a view object say EmployeeVo. on empVo i am performing setRangeStart and setRangeSize.
empVo .setRangeStart(2);
empVo .setRangeSize(2);
Rows[] rows=empVo .getAllRowsInRange();
so from the above statement will get two rows from the empVo object. Now i have to display these rows in UI in the form of af:table.
Can anyone suggest how to acheive this.
Thanks in advance.

<af:table value="#{Bean.listValue}" var="row" />
//refer rows like
<af:column>
<af:inputText value="#{row.description}" />
</af:column>
List listValue = new ArrayList();
//getter setter of listValue
//bean constructor
retrieve the rows from the AM methodthe above step is very crude hope you understand the steps

How to populate data into view object

Hi all,
I am quite new with ViewObject.
I have one data table which is binding with view object.
I want to populate data into view object from my managed bean.
how can i achieve this kind of scenario?
actually i try to get view object as in the following. but i get only null.
ViewObject viewobject = DCIteratorBinding.getViewObject();
With Regards,
Wai Phyo

Hi,
You could use the following code snippet to get handle to view object from the iterator.
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
BindingContainer bindings =
(BindingContainer)fc.getApplication().evaluateExpressionGet(fc,
"#{bindings}",
BindingContainer.class);
DCBindingContainer bc = (DCBindingContainer)bindings;
DCIteratorBinding iterator =
bc.findIteratorBinding("<ITERATOR_ID>");
ViewObject viewObject = iterator.getViewObject();
// Perform operations on the view objectThanks,

Browsers like Safari and Firefox have a contextual menu to allow you to copy a link to the clipboard. Point at a link. Right (contol) click the link to bring up the contextual menu and select the "Copy Link" (or similarly worded - "Copy Link Location" in Firefox, "Copy Link Address" in Chrome) . Then you can paste the link to wherever you want it.

How can i do the same
Please Solve this
Thanks

Hi,
Assuming ADF is in the picture
1. Create a PageDef file for the page (right mouse click "Go to Page Definition")
2. In the Executable section, create an iterator for the View Object
3. In the managed bean:
BindingContext bctx = BindingContext.getCurrent();
BindingContainer bindings = bctx.getCurrentBindingsEntry();
DCIteratorBinding iter = (DCIteratorBinding ) bindings.get("name of Iterator");
iter.execute();
// ... navigate the iterator rows ...//

There are two ways:
1. Uncheck "Query List Automatically" under List UI Hints in the view object overview xml.
2. In the query add "where 1=:bnum and 1 is not null" and execute the query in the LaunchPopupEvent
    public void userIdId_launchPopupListener(LaunchPopupEvent launchPopupEvent) {
        DCIteratorBinding myListIter = (getItrtBindings("MyLovViewObj1Iterator"));
        ViewObject vo = myListIter.getViewObject();
        NavigatableRowIterator myItemList = myListIter.getNavigatableRowIterator();
        Row row = myItemList.first();
        Object[] val = row.getAttributeValues();
        ViewRowSetImpl vor = (ViewRowSetImpl)val[row.getAttributeCount() - 1];
        vor.setNamedWhereClauseParam("bnum", new BigDecimal(1));
        vor.executeQuery();
    }

How do I query changed view object attribute in another view object

Jdeveloper 10.1.3.4
My requirement is that I want to be able to query a view object (based on entity) on a non-key attribute where the value I am searching on may either be in the database on an existing record or, have just been recorded by updating a different view object based on the same entity (and yet to be committed).
When querying the second view object for a value just updated via a different view object, the second view object always returns no rows. I had expected the process to be :
EntityA
ViewObjectA based on EntityA
ViewObjectB based on EntityA
ViewObjectA - query row with key = 123. update attribute Y with value 456 (attribute Y in database null). Entity cache for EntityA, key 123, atttribute Y updated with value 456
ViewObjectB - query row with attribute = Y. expect record in EntityA cache just updated to be returned. Instead, nothing is returned
Here is the code I was using (where RandScheduleEdit and RandScheduleSearch are identical view objects based on entity object RandSchedule)
public static void main(String[] args) {
    String        amDef = "test.cache.model.AppModule";
    String        config = "AppModuleLocal";
    ApplicationModule am = Configuration.createRootApplicationModule(amDef,config);
    ViewObject rsEdit = am.findViewObject("RandScheduleEdit");
    Key rsKey = new Key(new Object[]{40});
    Row[] rsEditRows = rsEdit.findByKey(rsKey,1);
    Row rsEditRow = rsEditRows[0];
    rsEditRow.setAttribute("SId", new Number(7827));
    ViewObject rsSearch = am.findViewObject("RandScheduleSearch");
    rsSearch.setWhereClause("S_ID = :SId");
    rsSearch.defineNamedWhereClauseParam("SId", null, null);
    rsSearch.setNamedWhereClauseParam("SId",new Number(7827));
    rsSearch.executeQuery();
    Row rsSearchRow = rsSearch.first();
    Configuration.releaseRootApplicationModule(am, true);
}Why does rsSearch not find the record S_ID = 7827 ? It seems to only be querying new records in the database and ignoring the cached record just updated ?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Brent

rsSearch.setNamedWhereClauseParam("SId",new Number(7827));This might help:
rsSearch.setQueryMode(ViewObject.QUERY_MODE_SCAN_ENTITY_ROWS);
rsSearch.executeQuery();

How can I make one slide that contains multiple slides?

Hi, I want to make slideshow for presentation. And I want to know how can I make this slide.
For example in this picture, have 1 main slide and 6 sub slides. I want to make slide like this, and all slides should be in one slide. And I want to zoom in to sub slide when I click and then zoom out when I click one more. And then second slide should be zoom in when I click and zoom out when I click again. And then slide 3 etc.
I want to know how can I do this.

There are two ways to do this.
1. Duplicate the main or first slide numerous times - as many as you'll need for the show, which looks like 6 including the first "overview slide".
2. You know have two choices - either use the Magic Move transition between the first slide and the next, which has the main box centre screen and enlarged proportionally.
3. Or enlarge the slides so that the main point is central, but use hyperlinks to move between the slides. This also gives you the liberty of changing the order spontaneously should the situation demand. Using the main first slide, place an invisible box around each element and use a link to move to that slide which is enlarged. Then you have to decide if you will come back each time to slide 1 (the overview) by having the whole slide hyperlinked to slide 1, or the whole slide linked to the next slide. That way you don't have to go looking for the hyperlink area.
The Magic Move effect will give your presentation a "Prezi" like effect, while the hyperlinked version I've described will just use gentle dissolves between each slide.
I will sometimes use 3 because I want to encourage audience participation and let them choose where to go next... e.g., the various elements of a 747 wing assembly, or the interior of a large cruise ship, showing state rooms, dining, pool area, ballroom, etc.
