Lov equivalent in jdeveloper

I have one table(machine_code,machine_no,machine_type....) and
another table( test_date,machine_type,machine_no,machine_code,....)
I want to create a view based on 1st table that selects machine_code,machine_type,machine_no from that table.
Now I want to create a form based on 2nd table with the machine_no field is select one choice bind with 1st view.
Is there a way such that when selecting machine_no in the select one choice field, the corresponding machine_code and machine_type values to be returned in the corresponding form fields and also is there a way that select one choice will show all fields selected in query but only return the particular field value with which it is bind.
Please help.It is an urjent requirement.
Regards
S Karar

Hi,
you could create a navigationList from View1 and then set the autosubmit property to true. In a valueChangeListener, get the selected row (you can get this from the binding layer, which now has the selected row as CurrentRow) and update the form filed with the values you want.

File Name Case Sensitivity in JDeveloper

A few months back I discovered that I could not create and compile an application on our common network drive because it forced all file names to uppercase. (Gotta love VMS). JDeveloper would get a compile error on the app_name-jazn-data.xml file. We put in a TAR on the issue, which Oracle was more than able to recreate. Solution was not to use a drive that forced everything to uppercase. Since JDeveloper creates the .xml file in question, I could not modify the name of it in any code. I was able to create and compile an application on our common web application network drive though without problems. This drive forces everything to lowercase. (Gotta love Unix)
In creating ADF Business Components and a JSF JSP, I found that JDeveloper creates the file names in both upper and lower case and it adheres to this in the application. Thus I am unable to compile my .java files on our common web application network drive. I recreated the application on my C: drive without problems.
Since I do not create these files or enter anything in to create them, I currently have no control over how JDeveloper creates them.
Is there something in JDeveloper that I can modify so that all file names will be in a particular case? Or, is there somewhere the file names are stored so that they can be changed?
We really want to use JDeveloper for our development, but have some major deployment problems because of this issue.
Thanx
Pam

I am probably missing a point here, but mixed case is not a feature or bug in JDeveloper. Any other Java IDE will do the same. If you want to use ADF BC, ADF Faces, etc. you must be able to create and save files with mixed case names. Many of those files are generated by JDeveloper, and sometimes you have no control over their names
There must be something wrong with your mapped drive on the unix machine... Why istalling and developing everything on your local drive is not an option?
Sorry, may be I just don't get it

Ok, after reading this thread one more time, I probably understand the issue. You use the shared network drive for team development, right? and you want all the sources to be accessible by the team, right? If this is the case, then CVS is the answer to your problem , as mentioned in the previous post. You may want to google cvs, to learn more about team development environment, and its integration with Jdeveloper and other IDEs

OAF LOV Updating Issues

Hi ,
I am updating po number in my table then I am attaching the PO number as a LOV in My Jdeveloper Page and Compilled, its working fine(Updating the LOV) in J Developer.I am moving the same page in to the server and going to see the application,it is not refreshed.But I will go to after an half on hour it is refreshed.
Any body can facing this kind of issue, help me how to solve this one? It will be grateful help for me.Awaiting for your earlier response.
Thanks,
Prakash

No!!! see Prakash ...
If you have made changes to the page on client and then you have FTP the page again onto server
then you need to bounce apache and also need to import the page again using xml importer command in application server.
if apache bounce does not reflect try bouncing the instance with the command provided by me...
Thanks,

How to clear invalid item value?

Hi, All.
I have two items: selectOneChoice and inputComboboxListOfValues. The second item list of values depends on the first item selected value. When the value of the first item is changed, the second item should be reset. I do this by
calling setValue(null) on the second item. The partialTriggers property of the second item is set to the first item id. If the second item has a valid value, then everything works well. But if the second item has an invalid value, for
example, the user after entering an incorrect value, clicks on another item, the setValue(null) does not reset the value.
Moreover, it is possible that a user saves to the database invalid data. For example:
1. Select a valid value on the second item.
2. Remove some characters making the invalid value.
3. Go to some other item by clicking the mouse.
4. Change value in the first item. (At this time will invoke setValue(null), and the list of values of the second item will change.)
5. Edit the value in second field to the value set in the first paragraph (this value is not valid after changing the value in the first element).
6. After that the document can be saved, no further checks are not happening.
Version of JDeveloper is 11.1.2.4.
How to set null value and how to ensure that in the second item it was impossible to enter not valid value?
Regards,
Alexey

OK, I looked into the issue. There are two problems:
1) your data model does not check the entries in the SOME_DOCUMENTS. You only check the FK against the master tables. You need to check if hte combination of the keys are valid. On solution would be to use model driven dependent lov. Check Andrejus Baranovskis's Blog: Cascading LOV's in JDeveloper 11.1.2.3.0 for a sample. Next the VO you use is based on multiple EO which is not necessary if you use Andrejus's approach.
2) There might be a bug in the af:inputComboboxListOfValues in this scenario when you you allow to enter values (or parts of it) in the inputText. However, if you validate the keys correctly, you can't insert something invalid. This problem has it's root in your data model. If you use the dependent lov and don't allow user input you can't change the selected value to something invalid. So my advice is to use dependent lov and don't allow input in the inputComboboxListOfValues (set editMode='select'), the user can still search or select the value, but only the valid ones.
The inputComboboxListOfValues error need some more investigation which need more time. I'll see if I find out something more.

JDev Newby Question: Visual Assist forms on attributes (like JD Edwards)

Hi,
Normally I use JD Edwards Enterprise One as software for ERP.
Now for a customer we are starting to use JDeveloper to develop a custom website for them.
Usually in JD Edwards it is possible to associate a Data Dictionary (attribute in JDev), which represents a column in a table or a field on the form, with a "Visual Assist".
This Visual Assist can provide you with the correct information for this Data Dictionary (or attribute). When you click it, you'll get to another form where you can select the data you want. Much like an LOV.
In JDeveloper this feature is not automatically generated. Only the Data functionallity on an attribute provides a calender where you can select the date you want.
Is there anyone who also uses JD Edwards Enterprise One, and who knows how to build a Visual Assist form?
Is is then also possible to make this Visual Assist an automated feature on an attribute? So every time this attribute is added, this Visual Assist will be included in the form?
I hope to hear from you soon.
Kind regards,
Willem Jan, Netherlands.

Check out the LOV feature of ADF BC - it allows you to associate a list of values to a field - and then in the UI the field, by default, will have a button to open the list of values to choose a value.
A basic tutorial here:

Class tab in .java editor (jdev 10.1.3)

Hello,
i am novice in jdeveloper and i am reading the book "jdeveloper 10.1.3 handbook". In a hands-on pratice for create a validator i create a java file in code editor, and after I have to click at the bottom the "Class" tab, but I cannot find "Class" tab,instead is "History" .
Why?
thanks

Hi,
I'm not sure this is the "jdeveloper 10.1.3 handbook" you are reading.
The Class editor was removed in JDeveloper 10g.
In this release, you can enter your variable in your Java code, and then select "Generate Assessors...' in the contextual menu.
You can also install the "Simple Java Bean Editor" extension
See on "Oracle JDeveloper 10g 10.1.3 - Extensions Exchange"
URL: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/htdocs/partners/addins/exchange/index.html
If you have any problem with this change, please let me know the exact document/page/step/... and I'll give you detailed instructions on how to perform the equivalent in JDeveloper 10.1.3

LOV single selection list is not working in my JDeveloper 10.1.2.3

Hi!
I'm stumped with this. I'm also new to JDeveloper. I used the sample tutorial from the OTN website entitled "JSPDataBoundLists.jws" to learn how to create drop-down lists in JDeveloper.
My problem is I created a single selection list LOV from DepartmentListView Data Control and pasted it into an EmployeesView Input form. This is so I can just select the Department names to populate the DepartmentID field in Employees table. I setup the data binding in the UI Model of my jsp using the "List Binding Editor". I checked the UIModel file and it looks as follows:
<DCControl
id="DepartmentId2"
SubType="DCListSingleSel"
IterBinding="EmployeesViewIterator"
DTClass="oracle.adf.dt.objects.JUDTCtrlListLOV"
ApplyValidation="false"
isDynamic="false"
ListOperMode="0"
ListIter="DepartmentsListViewIterator" >
<AttrNames>
<Item Value="DepartmentId" />
</AttrNames>
<ListAttrNames>
<Item Value="DepartmentId" />
</ListAttrNames>
<ListDisplayAttrNames>
<Item Value="DepartmentName" />
</ListDisplayAttrNames>
</DCControl>
I run the jsp, selected a value from the drop-down list, do a submit and do a commit, but the DepartmentId from the DepartmentsListView was not stored in Employees. What is wierd here is that there is an exact same single selection list defined a row above mine which is working fine. How come that one is working and mine is not?

Eureka! I finally found the answer to my own question!
This simple problem of adding a drop-down list into a jsp page cost me 3 whole days (around 24 full working hours) to find the answer. Normally it only takes me a few minutes with the other web app languages I've learned. And I just stumbled into the answer just a few minutes ago (maybe all thanks should be given to God whom let me stumble into the answer since me and my wife have been praying for several weeks now ever since I started trying to learn Oracle JDeveloper. It is really very very difficult and time consuming to learn compared to other web app languages and tools).
Anyway, the reason why my LOV does not work in my jsps using JDeveloper 10.1.2.3 is because JDeveloper 10.1.2.3 seems to allow only one input-form-element for the same field of the input table!
For example, what happened to me was I had an input form created for the Employees table in the HR schema. I did this simply by drag-and-drop from the "Data Control Palette". This feature I like very much with JDeveloper. It is really easy and works instantly. And then, I drag-and-drop the departmentname field from the Departments table as a "single selection list" into the jsp and setup its bindings. So when I run the jsp, viola! The drop-down list does not populate the DepartmentId field of the Employees table. IT DOES NOT WORK! I've tried reinstalling both JDev and Oracle db and JDKs to no avail! I tried posting in this forum to no avail! I tried experimenting with newly created jsps to no avail! Then suddenly after repeatedly experimenting on this on different tutorials, guides and my own web app, it works! Why did it work? It was because I tried to add an LOV-single-selection-list on another sample tutorial with a READ-ONLY FORM on the jsp! Thus only the LOV is the input-form-element in the jsp for the table's field.
So why can't you find such a simple and basic fact anywhere in the web, the tutorials, guides or the forum? I do not know. Maybe only I am using such an old version of JDev? But what about the users who used it when it just got out a couple of years ago? Didn't they have the same problem? Anyway, it seems like the answer to a lot of my simple basic questions about JDeveloper is not documented, or is buried very deep beneath all the other words of all these documents. Hopefully JDeveloper's documentations would get a lot easier to use very very soon!

How To Create an LOV in Jdeveloper 10.1.3.2.0

Hi,
Could anyone tell me as to how one can create an lov in this version of jdeveloper 10.1.3.2.0.
Thanks & Regards,
Madhur

Hi John,
Thanks for the detailed solution . Also i would like to clear some doubts.
Earlier i was using session.scope to pass value from one page to another. But since i have one jsp lov page and two fields 'from' & 'to' how would i be able to assign separate values when i am selecting them from same jsp lov page.
In other words how would i be able to reuse the jsp on other fields because if i change the values once it will be changes for all the fields.
one more query in the older version of jdeveloper 10.1.2.0 it was much easier to create an lov as u have options from the component pallete why have they removed it.?
Because i will have to create duplicate jsp pages if i have from & to fields for my search forms.
I hope i am able to get my problem through.
Thanks & Regards,
Madhur

Date format error in LOV with dates. Jdeveloper 11.1.1.0.1

We're facing a silly problem, which no one else seems to have... ?
When creating a LOV on a date column (eg hr.employees.hiredate) populated from another DataSource (eg. hr.job_history.startDate), the Application Module is working fine when tested.
Building a jspx on top of the Datacontrol picks up the LOV defined and creates a SelectOneChoice for hiredate. But for what ever value you select, it will complain about wrong date format "Error: The date is not in the correct format".
I can see, that the "real" value selected from the SelectOneChoice is an index-value, and the "format checking code" builtin to Jdeveloper can't figure out how to get the datevalue for the selected index.
Surely it must be me, who can't see the forest for the trees?
Thanks in advance :)

Its a bit tricky - but its doable... We have to abandon the "Oracle LOV model" to make it work.
Surely its must be some kind of bug in the Oracle LOV model? ?
The way to do it is like:
In Model project:
M1: Remove List Of Value binding from Model layer (Business components). Both entity and view if declared both.
M2: Create a view for the "date list" - ie the datasource for possible values in list.
M3: Secure that format mask (hint) for all dates involved are the same.
In View project:
V1: Drop datacontrol on jspx as normal input dates.
V2:Go to bindings for the page, and add (+) a new TABLE binding (And from here an iterator) to the view containing the list.
Modify the input dates you want to be list:
V3: Select the input date and rightclick and choose "convert"
V4: Select a SelectOneChoice component
V5: Pick the right column (tree) value to show in the SelectOneChoice componet.
Switch to source view:
V6: Drop a ForEach item from the component Palette (ADF Faces -> operations) on the SelectOneChoice (easiest to drop in structure windows)
V7: Drop a Select Item from the component Palette (ADF Faces -> common components) on the SelectOneChoice (easiest to drop in structure window).
Modify the source:
V8: Insert "items" and "var" attributes in ForEach like this: +"items="#{bindings.[[Here goes the name of the New TableBinding component you made in Step V2]].rangeSet}" var="li"+
V9: Insert "value" attribute and change "label" attribute to reference your new list variable "li" like this: +label="#{li.[[here goes the name of the new TableBinding Component attribute (columnname) you made in Step V2]]}" value="#{li.Firstofmonth}"+
V10: Insert/edit any converters/validators needed for input validation.
Done....
You should end up with a SelectOnChoice definition (in your jspx file) something like this one:
+<af:selectOneChoice value="#{row.bindings.ActiveFrom.inputValue}"+
+label="#{row.bindings.ActiveFrom.label}"+
+required="#{bindings.McAccountsView1.hints.ActiveFrom.mandatory}"+
+shortDesc="#{bindings.McAccountsView1.hints.ActiveFrom.tooltip}">+
+<af:forEach items="#{bindings.FirstOfMonth1.rangeSet}" var="li">+
+<af:selectItem label="#{li.Firstofmonth}" value="#{li.Firstofmonth}" />+
+</af:forEach>+
+<af:convertDateTime pattern="dd-MM-yyyy"+
+messageDetailConvertDate="Its not possible to convert the date in {0} since its value {1} dont conform to the pattern {2}"+
+secondaryPattern="yyyy-MM-dd"/>+
+</af:selectOneChoice>+
And a binding definition (in your pagedef file) something like this one:
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>+
+<pageDefinition xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adfm/uimodel"+
+version="11.1.1.52.5" id="McAccounts01PageDef"+

+<iterator id="FirstOfMonth1Iterator" RangeSize="10" Binds="FirstOfMonth1"+
+DataControl="dateLovEmailDataControl"/>+
+</executables>+
+<bindings>+
+<tree IterBinding="McAccountsView1Iterator" id="McAccountsView1">+
+<nodeDefinition DefName="dk.hammerJakobsen.Jdev.sample.model.McAccountsView">+
+<AttrNames>+
+<Item Value="EmployeeName"/>+
+<Item Value="Id"/>+
+<Item Value="BankAccount"/>+
+<Item Value="StellarAccount"/>+
+<Item Value="ActiveFrom"/>+
+<Item Value="ActiveTo"/>+
+</AttrNames>+
+</nodeDefinition>+
+</tree>+
+<action IterBinding="McAccountsView1Iterator" id="CreateInsert"+
+RequiresUpdateModel="true" Action="createInsertRow"/>+
+<action IterBinding="McAccountsView1Iterator" id="Delete"+
+RequiresUpdateModel="false" Action="removeCurrentRow"/>+
+<action IterBinding="McAccountsView1Iterator" id="First"+
+RequiresUpdateModel="true" Action="first"/>+
+<action IterBinding="McAccountsView1Iterator" id="Last"+
+RequiresUpdateModel="true" Action="last"/>+
+<action IterBinding="McAccountsView1Iterator" id="Find"+
+RequiresUpdateModel="true" Action="iteratorFind"/>+
+<action IterBinding="McAccountsView1Iterator" id="Execute"+
+RequiresUpdateModel="true" Action="iteratorExecute"/>+
+<action id="Commit" RequiresUpdateModel="true" Action="commitTransaction"+
+DataControl="dateLovEmailDataControl"/>+
+<action id="Rollback" RequiresUpdateModel="false"+
+Action="rollbackTransaction" DataControl="dateLovEmailDataControl"/>+
+<table IterBinding="FirstOfMonth1Iterator" id="FirstOfMonth1">+
+<AttrNames>+
+<Item Value="Firstofmonth"/>+
+</AttrNames>+
+</table>+
+</bindings>+
+</pageDefinition>+
this approach works... But... Its important to remember that the "two" values are different now. The value in the row, and the possible value from the list. When you select a new value for the row from the list, you'll have to commit the value before its in the row - even seen from Faces. You can't reference the value in the base table in a validator before the row is committed.
For the same reason I'll advise, that you only use the model in Single row view, since its can behave a bit funny in table views, where there's a lot of PPR.

JDeveloper equivalent of Eclipse GEF

I need to create an application that displays objects in a graphical canvas and allows the user to interact with the canvas. The Eclipse IDE has a nice framework called GEF (http://www.eclipse.org/gef/)
Is there any sort of equivalent available for JDeveloper?
If not, are there any good Java libraries that people would recommend for doing this?

Shay, this may be better as a separate post but I want to find out if we can get more documentation out on the code insight API usage. I created an extension last year for SQR editor and I want to add more features to it. I realy would like to add code insight and migrate it to the 11g version. If you happen to know how to implement this feature or know of a good place to look, I would really appreciate it.
Thank you,

Where is the LOV in JDeveloper 10g (9.0.5)

Hi All,
I've notice a big loss in JDeveloper 9.0.5 (10g):
I couldn't find the LOV.
Best regards,
Lucian

I've found the LOV (list of values from Forms) but I've
notice that the search functionality is missing.
(I'm talking about the "drop as " button LOV option on a form in JClient for ADF from "Data Control Palette"

Cascading lovs in Jdeveloper R2

on Jdev R2.
I was doing several different Test with Jdev R2 regarding to cascading Lov and lovs components.
here are results.
lets split them in two flavors.
I. Forms.
a) cascading lovs works fine only if you use : input text item with lovs. (this one works fine even if you do not set autosubmit on the master and partial trigger on dependent lovs, .......cool)
b) if you choose selectOneChoise, "what is really nice for short list" it does not work. not even if you set autosubmit and partial trigger.
II. af:table
a) on editing mode: editAll
* using input text with lov works (you do not need to set autosubmit/partial triggers) but every time when you select a value from a list, an ugly error araise saying : field1 is required. field2 is required...to all require attributes (you can work after click)
* using selectOneChoise did not work. after you select the first lov the next lov is surrounded by red square and never get refreshed.
b) on editing mode: clickToEdit :
this is really cool and fast, but cascading lovs does not work at all. not even input text with lovs
has anybody any feedback/workaround/idea on this one, or should we wait until these bug get fixed, hopefully in the new release.
also I was wondering what is the best approuch to execute some java code on load/unload.?
thank you for any help.
Luis

to call java on load use af:clientlistener along with af:serverlistener.. use the type as load
http://blogs.oracle.com/jdevotnharvest/entry/how-to_call_server_side_java_from_javascript
or use the beforephase and afterphase property of f:view, refer navaneeth code here
popup on page load using managed bean, using jdev-11.4
use af:document's onunload property for unloading event and java calls

JDeveloper 9i, Foreign Keys and LOVs.

Greetings all,
I'm using Jdev 9i to try and create some maintenance applications quickly. These applications are pretty standard; insert, update, delete, some validation, including foreign keys.
The problem is, I can't figure out how to get JDev to generate the JSPs with LOV pages on the foreign keys.
I've tried setting the validation properties of the entity object to validate from a query, as well as, tried using View objects for the same validation. Neither get me results.
I've also tried embedding the LOV directly using the LOVInputSelect (or whatever it is called). That works partially by displaying a field and a button, but when I click on it, I get an error with no explanation. Very helpful.
I can use a InputSelect datatag, but it is not the best choice for foreign keys with hundreds of values.
Also, since the Wizards are generating the DataEdit tag for the JSP I'm using, it appears that I cannot override them to display the LOV. They display a Calendar page for dates, automatically, but won't display an LOV for referential integrity. At least, I can't figure out how to make them.
Thanks in advance.

It's really beyond me why Oracle haven't provided a fairly complete set of Renderers (and a bit more BC4J oriented than the one's mentioned in the HOWTO).
Basically, you have two choices:
1/ develop your own Renderers (make your own conventions with Properties on Entities/ViewObjects) and use InputRender
2/ generate the JSP's yourself using the usual jbo tags (probably again based on some meta data in the properties). You may have to fiddle around a bit with inputselectlov etc.
Again, it's hard for me to understand why Oracle haven't substantially improved their default generated BC4J JSP pages, it looks to me that it is not so hard (compared to some of the other things they're trying to pull off) and gives maximum benefit for the customers.
Alternatively, there is JHeadstart (do a search on otn, you'll find some pointers). It generates lots of screens nicely for you (a la Designer, if you're familiar with that). Some teething problems, but really very productive otherwise. The disadvantage here is that if you want to start to make a few little changes outside what it supports, you're up against a fairly steep learning curve to master UIX and MVC framework. Apparently there's some hope that they will generate to Struts (taglibs & controller, if I understand well) soon.

Need equivalent of Oracle Forms Row-Level LOV

I came very close, but I am stuck on the last item.
I am trying to build an update form. I have a select box at the top, and when I select a new value, I want it to change all of the values on the form (for update) to the record associted with the value I chose in the Select Box.
I did this with the Master Detail wizard, although I believe that a "Form with a Report ", would work too. With the Master Detail Wizard, I choose "Edit detail on separate page", which creates the page that I am after, then I just delete the others. I then go to the last page (i.e., edit detail), and change the non-displayed primary key to a "Select List with Redirect" and then associate the desired LOV.
It works pretty nicely one I select a value, and it performs the redirect. However; I can't seem to get the form to pre-populate upon startup.
I tried defaulting the Select List, it does not pull in the detail data, unless I select something with the selct box.

Just three last questions.
1) If I want to call another similar form and have it start on the same item that I currently have selected in the select box, how would I pass that parameter, and how would I receive that parameter? I currently create a link on the first page, and use the following to call the second page:
LinkName
2) Is there an easier way to do what I am trying to do other than using a Master Detail Wizard, or Form with a Report. When I use the wizrd to create a single form, it seems to default to an Insert Form, and is missing the necessary function to do what I like.
3) In my first two forms, a record will always exist before I navigate to it. However; I have another class of form, that may not have a record yet. Do I need to create this form differently, or will the approach I've taken above still work if I need the form to do an insert rather than an update into the associated detail table?
