QBE filter criteria in adf richtable disappears

Question

Hi,
i use jdeveloper 11g (11.1.1.0.2) with ADF BC and have the following Problem:
I have a table with enabled builtin filtering. The table is contained in a page fragment of a taskflow.
At runtime I am doing the following:
1) I submit a filter criteria and get the right result. (OK)
2) goto different page and back to the page with the filtered table (OK)
3) the table displays the filtered data, but the filter input field is EMPTY (ARGGHHH, very confusing)
If you create the exact table on a simple page (not in page fragment of taskflow) the filter criteria is still shown in the filter input field as expected (and designed I think)
So is it a bug? How to work around?
Thanks,
Andreas.

Answer 1

Hi,
I have not tried this , but it should work
you need to get the value of filterModel attribute of af:table
so, in your backing bean if you can get hold of your table component
store your filterCriteria somewhere while navigating between pages
RichTable myFilterableTable = this.getMyFilterableTable(); //assuming your table component is associated with backing bean
FilterableQueryDescriptor queryDesc = myFilterableTable.getFilterModel();
//get teh filtercriteria from fiterModel
Map<String,Object> filterCriteriaMap = queryDesc.getFilterCriteria();filterCriteriaMap will contain your QBE criteria values , re-set your table filterModel , you can use EL to do that in which case now its binded to your backing bean filterCriteriaMap
hope it helps
Good Luck
