Java code common to the applications modules

Question

I need help to generalise some methods and include them in project.
I have some Java methods and I need it to be able to include/calll these methods from different application modules.
I need it accessible to all app modules.
Is there any way to do it?

Answer 1

what we do is create a root application module to be the parent of all our app modules. edit that root app module and add your other app modules as nested app modules under the "Application Modules" section. then in your child app module java code you can initialize your root application module by using the getRootApplicationModule() method:
YourServiceImpl yourServ = (YourServiceImpl)getRootApplicationModule();
then you have access to all your methods in the master app module. however, to make sure you're accessing your app module in the desired hierarchy, you have to base your jhs app def file on your root app module or use your app module under the desired hierarchy in any of your custom adf pages.
hope this helps
