Several attempts are required to close ADF Panel called from JButton.

Question

Hi all,
I have created an ADF Panel, which allows the user to run a few simple queries against an Oracle database done using ADF view objects and ADF view links and ADF application module.
Here is the description of my problem, I am sorry about the length of the description, this is the shortest I could come up with:
I have several runable ADF panels. For example I have Panel2 which displays the results of a few queries from ADF view links. In Panel1 I drag and drop Panel2 to Display as Jdialog from button. So Panel1 displays the result of a few view links and also displays a clickable button which opens another window and displays the content of panel2.
So far everything woks fine. Now I create an empty ADF form called MainForm, in which I drag and drop Panel1 as Jdialog from button. So when I run MainForm it displays a clickable button which opens another window and displays the content of panel1 in which as described earlier, I have another clickable button which opens and displays the content of panel2.
My problem starts here, the first call to Panel1 and from there to panel2 works fine. When I close Panel2 and Panel1, and click again on Panel1 from MainForm for the second time and from there I click on Panel2, then closing Panel2 becomes a problem. I click to close panel2, it closes and it opens again, I click to close for a second time and then it closes. Now I am back on Panel1 which closes fine with just one attempt.
Now I am back at MainForm, click on Panel1 again then from Panel1 on Panel2. Click to close Panel2, it closes and it opens again, I click to close for a second and third time and then it closes. And so on, each time closing attempts on Panel2 increments by 1 each time you go back to MainForm and click on Panle1 then Panel2.
Any idea what might be causing this behavior? And how to prevent it?
Your inputs are most appreciated.
Thanks.

Answer 1

Thanks for your response.
Can you please give more detail? Where exactly do I insert this:
resetBindingValue("#{bindings.<componentid>.inputValue}", null);
And where do I define it?
Is there not an existing pre-defined function from Jdev such as panelBinding.clearIterBindings() that I can include in my code to clear the ADF panel when closed. I would like to think that this must exist already. And why is panelBinding.clearIterBindings() does not do this, the name surely leaves you to believe that this is exactly what it is supposed to do.
Thanks.
Bobby.
