How to find and delete matching row in ADF BC

Question

Hi,
I have a table with simple fields and I have created the java class for this entity also
Person
     - Person_Id (PK)
     - Person_NameI wanted to create an application module method to search for the entity that matches certain name
but I cant find the code to do this.
public class AppModuleImpl{
  public boolean deletePersonByName(String personName)
    EntityDefImpl personDef = PersonImpl.getDefinitionObject();
    //How to get all rows and find the matching name then delete the row
    return false;
}Thanks

getfilteredRows does that, you can iterate and delete the rows after filtering on any attribute in view object it does not have to be a primary key.Hi Ramandeep,
I got the idea and I somehow was able to do what I want.
  public boolean deletePersonByName(String personName)
    PersonViewImpl personView = this.getPersonView();
    Row[] matchingRows = personView.getFilteredRows("PersonName", personName);
    if(matchingRows!=null)
      for(Row rowTemp : matchingRows)
        PersonViewRowImpl personRow = (PersonViewRowImpl) rowTemp;
        personRow.remove();
        try
          getDBTransaction().commit();
        }catch(JboException ex)
          throw ex;
    return true;
  }But somehow I got this idea, supposed I have this data
PersonId          PersonName
1               MANDER
2               MANDERRY
3               JERRYThe code getFilteredRows somehow only perform an 'exact' match but what if I want to delete both of the data
with PersonName 'MANDER' above.
My current code only removes the person with name 'MANDER' and not the 'MANDERRY'
Thanks
