OAMessageStyledTextBean is not being displayed

Question

Hi All
I have extended the CO class and inheritedthe methods from the processRquest so i trying to get the results from the process request to display a message styled text but it is no appearing on the page:
this is what i have done
package xxper.oracle.apps.xxper.selfservice.absence.webui;

Any help please

Hi,
1. Can you get any self-made OAMessageStyledTextBean to display on the page using this method? I have used a slight variation on your code in the past. The only fundamental difference is that it does not add the child directly to the webbean parameter, but rather it finds the parent bean first. Also it uses the createWebBean method of the OAControllerImpl class, but this should simply delegate to getWebBeanFactory().createWebBean, which is what you do. My working code ("this" is the controller):
OARowLayoutBean somebean = (OARowLayoutBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("SomeBeanNameRN");
OAMessageStyledTextBean txt1 = (OAMessageStyledTextBean) this.createWebBean(pageContext, OAWebBeanConstants.MESSAGE_STYLED_TEXT_BEAN, null, "XX_TEXT_1");
txt1.setPrompt("some text ");
somebean.addIndexedChild(txt1);
Notice that only setPrompt is used, I don't think that setText has any effect on a OAMessageStyledTextBean.
2. I'm not sure if your callable statement code works. Usually you don't need a connection object but rather a transaction object. Something like this:
OADBTransaction tx = pageContext.getRootApplicationModule().getOADBTransaction();
String anonymousBlock = "begin null; end;";
CallableStatement cs = tx.createCallableStatement(anonymousBlock, 1);
etc...
