Personalization: available for ADF/Fusion developers?

Hi,
I had a questionion posited by my supervisor. He asked if the OA personalization "module" was available for Fusion/ADF developers as well? It would be really nice to be able to throw in a way to customize CSS (if personalization even allows this...he said it did) for all Fusion/ADF applications generated; for my client in particular, that is something specific they are looking for because they are OA users as well, and they saw it...so now they want it...
Michael F.

ADF/Fusion development is still underway and these standards are not yet out. As per my understanding, a more sophisticated and flexible personalization feature will be available but as of now, there are no published details.

Apple watch hardware availability for developers

Hi All,
I want to develop for Apple watch and was wondering if the hardware was available for developers before the actual launch.
I have already got the WatchKit SDK and all, but wanted to test on a real hardware piece.
With Best Regards
Adarun

We are just users here. Apple is not present. We can't answer your question. If you are a paid developer there is a paid class from which you can purchase hardware at reduced prices. Nothing is free for regular developers.

Secure Coding Guidelines for ADF / WebCenter

Hi,
Our team is new to ADF and WebCenter development. Does Oracle have a security 'best practices' document for ADF developers?
We already have a few generic 'secure coding' document, which recommends things like input validation, avoiding SQL injection, etc. However, we do not have any recommendations specific to ADF.

Few tips are:
- you can follow some OOPs design patterns in ADF.
- Create shareable components as bounded task flows and reuse them using ADF library jar
- create separate projects for JavaScript, css, images or deploy them to web server virtual directory.
- MDS can help you in many areas for customization and personalization
- Over use of CSS and javascript could slow the performance as well.
- Don't play with oracle internal libraries ( i have seen many cases causing bugs in productions later)
and last not least...........don't re-invent the wheel if declarative solution is available use it ;)
hope it helps

Will ADF fusion applications matchup as Java EE 6 has arrived?

Here is my view as a simple developer who doesn't like complications :)
1)With ADF, the first thing that wowed me long back was how well integrated the stack is, calling business logic from frontend was quite easy as JDeveloper did lot of work of creating relevant XML files and so on. With Java EE 6, i simply use CDI to inject EJB's in managed beans and start using it right away. Infact EJB's can now be also included in WAR files which i guess will be a good news for small to medium scale applications using Java EE6 web profile. Isn't CDI a better approach for integration rather than lots of XML files. Isn't Java EE 6 more intuitive approach rather than developer having to worry about additional resources being added to the project?
2)I love ADF since we can setup validation in Entity objects and it gets reflected in frontend too. With Java EE 6, bean validation i get almost similar features as validation code is not repeated in every tier.
3)ADF involves a steep learning curve with additional lookup in Business Object API's for various scenarios as well as knowledge of core JSF. With Java EE 6 providing seamless integration, the learning curve is lot less, JSF 2.0 + EJB CDI Bean Validation combination seems sufficient for most projects.(CDI specification only about 100 pages, Bean Validation specification about 145 pages and this year itself books related to Java EE 6 will be out for those who don't like the specification approach)
4)I always had issues with ADF applications taking lot of time to startup. I tried some sample Java EE 6 application(on glassfish v3), using JSF2.0 + EJB combination. They start as fast as pure JSP applications. Plus the memory required by Netbeans(with integrated Glassfish v3) is quite less.(JDeveloper + Weblogic+ Oracle XE require lots of space). Netbeans(i use it just because it has support for Java EE 6) starts in around 10 secs whereas JDeveloper takes around a minute at least on my PC.
5)Java EE 6 applications will run on all compliant servers and already development is on for Java EE 6 compliance. Such claims cant be made for current ADF applications. Isn't it a kind of application server vendor lock in?
6)I have personally found jsf libraries like Rich faces, Prime faces, Ice faces quite easier to use than ADF Faces. For the former cases, i simply look up the demo show cases and use the relevant code in my projects. Using ADF faces is easy with JDeveloper but when i look at the source code, i find it much more complex than other JSF libraries, lots of binding stuff in it. With richfaces, prime faces etc, i get a sense of control over the UI code. Granted ADF has more components then any other JSF framework, but really using a particular JSF library like RichFaces or Prime Faces is more then sufficient for me. Plus some libraries are already JSF 2.0 compliant. At the start, i was impressed by the charting components which ADF provided, but now virtually every JSF library provides them. Pages can be edited at source code level in other libraries, i cant imagine doing the same with ADF Faces.
7)ADF Faces is currently not free (at least till the last time i checked it), many other libraries are. Thats a big big plus for small budget projects who dont happen to have Weblogic.
8)When i tried building demo application using ADF, first of all Weblogic takes a lot of time to start, plus it took lot of time to just view a modified page. Glassfish v3 starts in just few seconds, plus pages are served quite quickly. I did follow some steps in various blogs about how to improve performance of JDeveloper+Weblogic for development purposes. However JDeveloper + Weblogic combo create-edit-test time is more than netbeans +glassfish v3 combo. Infact i have always wondered, why i am forced to test my ADF applications on a production level server like Weblogic and not on smaller ones like tomcat or even full EE servers like glassfish. If am forced to use a particular server for testing, then i expect quick runs. Visual Studio with integrated IIS is so fast, in fact there is hardly any wait time to see a modified page.(I have developed both Java EE as well as Asp.net applications, and i guess mentioning them is OK since its also a component oriented framework)
9)This is a rather offbeat point. Asp.net framework offers Gridview, a table control which is heavily used by .net guys.(Infact a new control ListView has arrived which offers far more features). In ADF lazy loading tables, there is no direct paging available(i mean paging where we actually see the pager control), with developers having to find out ways to include paging. In other library say PrimeFaces, there is table control which has lazy loading as well as paging built in. Cant there be such a control in ADF with paging as well as template based approach like ListView of Asp.Net? In fact i still haven't found a flexible control like ListView in Java arena. Guess i have to build one since JSF 2.0 has made buildings controls very easy :)
With Java EE 6, JSF 2.0 + EJB + CDI + Bean Validation, do we need the overall complexity which ADF applications inherently have?
Edited by: Nash Era on Jan 30, 2010 8:58 AM

Thanks for taking time for replying :)
Good to hear that Java EE 6 is being considered in ADF future development. For once, a standard seems developed by fellow developers rather than over engineered stuff coming out of a committee meeting( well it started with Java EE 5).
For me, another framework is required only if a standard doesn't suffice all the needs. I mean why increase a developers burden by making him learn whims and fancies of new framework with all its API, its usage, etc.And Java EE 6 has lots of features to satisfy a wide variety of development scenarios.
1) Actually, i wasn't pointing to injecting specific code in model. For eg: [this |http://www.adam-bien.com/roller/abien/entry/ejb_3_1_killed_the], [simple javaEE6|http://www.adam-bien.com/roller/abien/entry/simplest_possible_jsf_2_ejb] .All business logic in session bean, clueless about how its going to be utilized by any front end. When i use a particular UI technology, say JSF 2.0. i simply inject the session bean in one of my JSF managed bean and start using it. No XML files, no binding directly visible for the developer, all binding magic taken care of courtesy, CDI. In fact now a JSF managed bean doesn't need to declared in faces-config.xml, a simple @ManagedBean and scope declaration is enough, one , two , three
Even i am skeptical about how annotations which are being liberally used affects project maintenance. Hope it doesn't turn out to be annotation Hell!
With JPA 2.0 including lots of new features, JSF 2.0 being enhanced further, a lot of development scenarios seems already covered.
3)It really took a lot of time for me to get a hang of ADF. Simple applications are easy to manage, but reading the developers guide took a while.(The guides are really good, the best thing about oracle is how well documented there products are).
5)Actually i tried porting a sample ADF application on Tomcat. Wasn't successful at it. (Actually i gave up since i didn't have that much time). A official support for ADF on various servers would be great.
6)ADF BC as business layer and ADF Faces as UI does involve bindings. Plus a extra binding xml file for each JSF page. With Java EE 6, i have no extra items in my project.
Am looking forward to how JDeveloper, the IDE of choice for me, provides support for Java EE 6,specifically if any annotation GUI kind of support is provided for DI.
7)I wasn't saying that ADF is not worth its price tag. Just that free alternatives are available which may suffice many projects.
9)About components, a pager control is so much required. I mean for web applications, if we present a product list to the user, he gets a sense of number of products in a list just by looking at the pager below. Better user experience can be achieved by pager control then scrollable tables. Say for amazon.com or ebay.com with search results in a scrollable table wont be acceptable. Plus pager provides a sense of completion than scrolls as the user doesn't have to worry if he has missed a item by scrolling past it. How many ecommerce sites out there use scrollable tables instead of pager? ADF should have catered to this large audience who prefer to have page numbers, prev, next, first, last buttons.
ListView in Asp.Net is very flexible. It can display a table of data with pager , plus it supports templates. With typical JSF table controls, they are rendered only as rows in a table. With ListView i can display the data in any format i want. So a particular list item info is not restricted to be in a row format. I can display it in whichever form i want( for eg: if i am displaying a product list to a user, i place a image to left, price, product info to the right), plus i get paging too.
Am sure JDeveloper + ADF + Java EE 6 will be a deadly combo just as it was for Java EE 5. Looking forward to it :)

Deploy ADF Fusion Web Application on Amazon EC2 Weblogic

Hi,
I am trying to deploy ADF Fusion Web Application (developed using JDev) on Amazon EC2 Weblogic app server but with no success.
Can anyone enlighten me how to deploy ADF Fusion Web App on Amazon EC2 Weblogic?
Thanks for kind assistance!

Hi,
Thanks for your prompt assistance.
I managed to run "wls_jumpstart" but I am unable to start the console even though I have created a domain.
I cannot find any instructions anywhere about deploying ADF Fusion Web Apps on Amazon EC2 Weblogic or any case studies of success anywhere.
Hence, I am not sure if ADF Runtime is available on the Weblogic on Amazon EC2. Can you please help me in this area as well?
It will be great if you can point me to some instructions on how to load web apps to Amazon EC2 Weblogic as I am quite new to both JDev and Amazon EC2.
Thanks.

Support for ADF Faces

Hi Everyone,
We are planing to use ADF Facses for our upcoming prjoject. so for that we want some sample application or demonstration because the list of component is available in the oracle site is not very rich may be not updated, how can i get detail information about ADF Faces.
How to get latest trial version of ADF Faces and how to configure ADF with MYEclipse
Thanks
Meraj

Meraj,
ADF Faces components are as they show in the JDeveloper 10.1.3.3 component palette. The Apache MyFaces open source project Trinidad contains new components that will be in JDeveloper 11. Note that unlike other vendors, Oracle doesn't make trial versions available but always the full version (we don't mind developers using our stack for longer than 30 days ;-) ).
To configure ADF Faces in Eclipse, just make sure you have MyFaces or JSF-RI installed in Eclipse and adf-faces-api.jar and adf-faces-impl.jar configured for ADF face. The adf-faces-impl.jar fiel contains the tag libraries

Unified Test Development Framework (Oracle Testware) available for 11gR1?

Hi,
found this article: http://blogs.oracle.com/testware/2009/07/introduction.html
Is Oracle Testware available for 11gR1?
I posted the question at the blog too but didn't get an answere.
regards
Peter

Hello,
ODSM has the following dependencies apart from ADF (both components depend also on ADF):
- UIShell (oracle.idm.uishell.war)
- Webcenter Composer (oracle.webcenter.composer.war).
Apparently the composer is missing.
Important points to check when using ODSM with WAS:
- To install and configure Oracle Fusion Middleware with IBM WebSphere, you must first install (but not configure) IBM WebSphere
- You must install the Oracle Application Development Framework as the same user who installed Oracle Unified Directory.
- appdev must be installed under the same ORACLE_HOME as OUD

Is there a specific time of day that the BTO iMacs become available for pickup?

As I am sure many people can relate to, I find myself hitting the refresh screen on my Apple order page awaiting the arrive of a built-to-order 27" iMac (3.4 GHz/ 32GB memory/ 3TB fusion/ 680MX graphics). Question for people with an inside scoop.... do the custom macs arrive a specific time of day (many retailers have scheduled deliveries at specic times during the day). The reason I ask is because if my Mac is only going to become "available for pick-up" in the morning, I will know that after... let's say 10am.. there is no reason for me to keep checking because I will know it won't be showing up on this specific business day, if it hasn't already. Any insight on how this works? Thanks fellow Apple fans!

Goodness gracious.... Not even 5 minutes after I replied to you, my item became available for pickup! It's like they were listening in! haha !
