Simple Applicaiton without Managed Beans in ADF? [SOLVED]

I have a simple problem and coming from the SpringFramework world it isn't so simple in ADF. I am using JDeveloper 11g preview and all the examples I have seen require usage of a manged bean to do the following:
Given:
1. I have a service class (EmployeeService) that has two methods: findEmployees() and findEmployee(String uuid)
2. I have two pages: listEmployees.jspx and viewEmployee.jspx
Objective:
1. I would like to list all the employees returned by findEmployees() in the listEmployees.jspx.
2. I would like to create a commandLink in the listEmployees.jspx for each employee such that when the commandLink for a particular employee it takes you to the viewEmployee.jspx passing to it the selected employee's uuid.
3. I would like to have viewEmployee.jspx page call the findEmployee(String uuid) using the passed in uuid.
Any help you can give me would be appreciated.

What you need here is an action method binding, ie a method in the managed bean that gets the current row id and calls the right method to retrieve the data.
The ADF Tutorial, Chapter 7 shows you how (http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/ADF_tutorial_1013/10131/index.htm)

How to access backing bean of a xml component , in a managed bean of ADF

Hi,
We wrote a xml component in JSF and this component is used in ADF project by including the component as jar .
In a master detail page , we need to update the value of the xml component, when the master row is changed. How to do this.
We are trying to do this by accessing the backing bean of the xml component in ADF project's managed bean. So when ever the row changes, we can access the managed bean in ADF and then can set the value of the xml component by accessing it's backing bean
But i can't access the backing bean instance of the xml component in the ADF managed bean. Could you let me know how to do this. Thanks .

Thanks for the response Shay. The xml component is added as a custom component , with a separate faces-config.xml file . This component is added to ADF project as a jar with a custom tag.
In the ADF project , i'm having different managed beans and i can access them from a different managed bean.
The issue is, i can't access the added custom component's backing bean which is available from a different jar , defined in a separate faces-config.xml file . This backing bean is defined with request scope.

How to get iterator values from a managed bean ?

Due to a bug in selectOneChoice i'm not able to get the label list i want to display directly from an iterator when the value binding is a managed bean.
To solve the problem i would like to create a managed bean that contains that list and use it as the selectItems to display.
I would like that the values in that managed bean loaded from the a data control iterator.
My question is :
1) is it possible to access the iterator values from a managed bean, i mean without any reference to a page definition
2) how to do ? is it documented somewhere ? any example ?
Thank you

I got it also with this code:
package view.managedBeans;
import classification.bean.ClassificationDocument;
import classification.castor.ClassificationLanguage;

MANAGED BEAN BOOK

Hi ,
I am using jdeveloper 11 g release 2 .
Can anyone assist with books to implement the managed bean in adf?
Regards
steve kalenga

I'm not aware of a book on this. However, creating a manged bean is pretty simple as you only have to create a java class and then configure this class in the adfc-config.xml if you use ADF.
You should lookup memory scopes in the docs as managed beans should always be in the smalest scope possible for the use case.
And very impoertant: don't use automatic binding of components!

JSF best practice for managed bean population

hi;
consider a simple session scope managed bean with 1 attribute which is calculated dynamically.
there seem to be 3 ways of populating that attribute (that i could think of):
1. have the bean's get<attribute> get the data and populate it
2. have the constructor of the bean get the data and populate it
3. have an action get the data, and set it from the action code (maybe use a valueBinding to get the bean if the bean which needs population is not the same bean that holds the action) .
option 1 seems ok for situations where i need my data to be calculated for every valueRef for that attribute but is an overhead for data that need not be calculated for every valueRef.
option 2 will ensure that te data is calculated only once per session. but it still looks kinda strange to do it
with option 3, it seems you should populate the dynamic content of the next page and its intuitive but some places in the page might be common content with dynamic data and this has nothing to do with navigation and the next page to be displayed.
is there a best practice of how to populate a managed bean data?
are different cases fit different ways?
any thoughts are appriciated.

I think it should be either Option 2 or Option 3.
Option 2 would be necessary if the bean data depends on some request parameters.
(Example: Getting customer bean for a particular customer id)
Otherwise Option 3 seems the reasonable approach.
But, I am also pondering on this issue. The above are just my initial thoughts.

Managed bean in both adfc-config.xml and faces-config.xml file

hi,
i can see that it's possible to declare managed bean in both adfc-config.xml and faces-config.xml file.
is there any difference? which one is recommended?
read here - http://www.jaypillai.com/tag/adf/
but still not clear.
thanks.

Hi.
As you know ADF is a framework based on JSF.
In faces-config.xml you define general application manage beans. It offers you define manage beans for all application using JSF default scopes (application, session, request).
In adfc-config.xml you define general application manage beans using ADF Scopes. It means that you can use JSF default ones including "view, pageFlow and backing".
My recommendation is use only one point entry for your general manage beans. Use adfc-config.xml because allow you to use more scopes.

How to attach simple Spring code as managed bean into amx:listView (list view in adf mobile application)

I found very simple code to fetch facebook feed here:
3.&nbsp;Facebook API Binding
it uses Spring Framework. I already added spring support into jDeveloper.
code to fetch feed is something like this:
String accessToken = "f8FX29g..."; // access token received from Facebook after OAuth authorization
Facebook facebook = new FacebookTemplate(accessToken);
List<Post> feed = facebook.feedOperations().getFeed();
I created managed bean for my amx:listView - Facebook.java. And inserted this code. But of course it is not enough. I need somehow to add spring managed bean (not like mine).
Can you help me with that?

Thanks for your answer. But its too wasteful for my app to run additional server. My app is very simple so i do not need server side. May be there is another way, without Spring. I mean something simpler then raw JDK 1.4 - some ready-made tool for the needs of these?
Thanks in advance

How to access all rows one by one of a ADF table through managed bean

Hi Experts,
Hi i am new in ADF.
Could someone help me for solving the below case?
Scenario - I have table called Test_T1 which have 4 columns C1,C2,C3,C4. Have created EO,VO and AM for test_t1.
At the time of ADF page creation i selected the option 'Automatically Exposed UI components in New managed bean' (mynewmanagedbean.java).
From Data control drag and drop Test_T1 table in the page as a ADF table.
Set the properties for C1,C2,C3 is read only and C4 is an input text.
Have add after the table and attathed button action on the managed bean mynewmanagedbean.java.
At the time of running the page Test_T1 populated with some no. of rows (like 9).
How can i access all the above rows through pressing the button without selection of any of them.
Actually i want to print all the table rows in log file at the time of pressing the button.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Timo,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
I am using the JDeveloper 11.1.2.1.0.
As previously said I am totally new in this framework. So if you explain the solution given by you then it will be help full for me.
Don't know r you agree or not for this ?
When i put your resolution in the command button bean JDeveloper said TestDataRow type not found.
What will be the type and TestDataRow and what is missing in below code or how i will declare that in below code?
Also Could please mentioned the missing thing ?

Customize faces managed bean loading in ADF ( in JDev 11.1.2.1)

Hi there,
I am trying to use Spring with ADF. The intention is to use Spring context managed beans to use as backing beans in ADF.
I created a simple bean class. Created Data control based on it and tried to look at factoryClass, which is responsible for instantiating the bean class, oracle.adf.model.adapter.DataControlFactoryImpl.
Where in ADF it creates the instances of backing beans? What is the best approach to solve this puzzle?
With regards,
- Manoj

I don't think your version of Jdeveloper supports CDI beans. It is my understanding that CDI beans will be supported next year in Jdeveloper.
So for now, if you are using Jdeveloper, you are stuck with only JSF managed beans that need to go in the faces-config.xml files or managed beans annotations .....

Use ADF Managed Bean to get the username in BPM Workspace

Hi all,
I used JSF and ADF to build the UI of human task. And I want to get the username of the user who is manipulate on BPM Workspace. For example, an ADF form can display the username of current user in BPM Workspace. I also try this approach: use Manage Bean, and bind this bean to a output text in ADF form. The code fragment I use to get the current username is:
ADFContext.getCurrent().getSecurityContext().getUserPrincipal().getName();
But it does not work. The value I get is Anonymous.
So, plz help me solve this problem

Hi, please try this function as below:
public String getUserLogin() throws WorkflowException,
BPMIdentityException,
BPMUnsupportedAttributeException {
String userId = "";
IWorkflowServiceClient wfSvcClient;
ITaskQueryService queryService;
IWorkflowContext wfContext;
// Get username of User Login
String contextStr = ADFWorklistBeanUtil.getWorklistContextId();
wfSvcClient = WorkflowService.getWorkflowServiceClient();
queryService = wfSvcClient.getTaskQueryService();
wfContext = queryService.getWorkflowContext(contextStr);
userId = wfContext.getUser();
return userId;

Accessing facade bean in ADF Faces managed bean

Hello
I am trying to display data from a database on a page using ADF Faces. I am using a Web Application [JSF, EJB] template in JDeveloper with the model project using JPA entities with a session facade bean to manage the entities (as described here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe1013jdev/10131/ejb_and_jpa/master-detail_pagewith_ejb.htm ).
What I have tried to do is to set up a managed session bean in the ViewController project that is referenced by a faces page. The managed bean is supposed to, on creation, load data from the database into managed properties which are then displayed on the faces page using EL references. I want all JPA management to go through the facade, and thus I want to inject the facade bean into the managed bean using @EJB notation. However, the injection does not work, and all I get is a NullPointerException when trying to access the injected facade in the managed bean.
I have also tried instantiating the facade bean in the managed bean's constructor manually, but when I try to call a method on the facade, I get another NullPointerException, this time from the entity manager which obviously is not injected into the facade bean.
What is strange is that the facade bean works perfectly when I use the datacontrols generated from the facade bean, as described in the tutorial (no exception from the entity manager).
I have searched high and low for a solution to this, and from what I can read, it should be possible to do what I want (see for example https://blueprints.dev.java.net/bpcatalog/ee5/persistence/ejbfacade.html and http://luxlog.wordpress.com/2007/12/15/basic-example-web-app-with-glassfish-netbeans-60-jsf-and-ejb3/ ). I found someone mentioning that dependency injection in the web container OC4J was added after a given version, and that web.xml needs to be upgraded to version 2.5, which I have done but did not solve anything.
Is this not possible in JDeveloper/OC4J at all? Is there any other way to access the facade session bean in managed beans?

Hi,
for resource injection you need JDeveloper 11. Here the EJB annotation works to inject the resource. If you want to do similar in 10.1.3 then you need to do a JNI lookup in the managed bean (under the shelves ADF does the same)

ADF Faces and BC: Scope problem with managed bean

Hi,
I am using JDev 10.1.3 and ADF Faces with ADF BC.
I have created a managed bean which needs to interact with the binding layer and also receive actions from the web pages. I have a managed property on the bean which is defined as follows:
<managed-bean>
    <managed-bean-name>navigator</managed-bean-name>
    <managed-bean-class>ecu.ethics.view.managed.Navigator</managed-bean-class>
    <managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
    <managed-property>
      <property-name>bindings</property-name>
      <value>#{bindings}</value>
    </managed-property>
</managed-bean>I need the been to session scope because it needs to keep previous and next pages to navigate the user through their proposal. If i use session scope (as above) i get the following error when i click on a comand link which references a method in the above bean: #{navigator.forwardNext_action} which returns a global forward.
this is the exception:
javax.faces.FacesException: #{navigator.forwardNext_action}:
javax.faces.el.EvaluationException: javax.faces.FacesException:

Hi pp,
you need to create a managed (not backing) been set to session scope.
You can call/reference the managed bean from your page.
the backing bean is designed around a page lifecyle which is request oriented in it's design.
This is a simple managed bean from faces-config.xml
<managed-bean>
    <managed-bean-name>UserInfo</managed-bean-name>
    <managed-bean-class>ecu.ethics.admin.view.managed.UserInfo</managed-bean-class>
    <managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
      <managed-property>
      <property-name>bindings</property-name>
      <property-class>oracle.adf.model.BindingContext</property-class>
      <value>#{data}</value>
    </managed-property>
</managed-bean>and the getters and setters for bindings in your session scope managed bean:
    public void setBindings(BindingContext bindings) {
        this._bindings = bindings;
    public BindingContext getBindings() {
        return _bindings;
    }you can access the model from the managed bean using the the BindingContext if needed.
also have a look at JSFUtils from the ADF BC SRDemo application, there are methods in this class such as resolveExpression which demonstrate how to get the values of items on your page programatically using expression language. You can use this in your managed bean to get values from your pages.
regards,
Brenden

EJB, JPA E MANAGED BEAN WITHOUT DATA CONTROL

How do I build a simple crud with no EJB without data controls. Exposing the methods of my bean class.
Who can help me thanks.
Edited by: 941064 on 15/06/2012 14:48

You'll write managed beans that access your EJB service facade.
You can use @EJB injection to get this working.

Hi,
you can create a button with an ActionListener. In the ActionListener you can iterate over the rows (using the iterator) and set the value on the attribute. If you need to save the changes you can call the commit operation binding.

How to get ADF UI Component value in managed bean

JDev version 11.1.1.1.3.0
I have written a managed bean method and calling that method on valueChangeEvent of a Select boolean Checkbox ADF Component.
I want to retreive the value of some other component located in the same page as the checkbox. I need the value of the component into the manged bean. I know how to get the value of the checkbox eg:
public void selectCheckBoxListener(ValueChangeEvent evt){
boolean selectedValue = (Boolean)evt.getNewValue();
String oldvalue = (String)evt.getOldValue();
How can I access the value of an input text component in the above managed bean ? Can someone help on this?

Hi Sackam,
String selectedRowId = (String)(evt.getComponent().findComponent("rowId")).getAttributes().get("value");
The above coding will work fine
but wht u have specified rowId???? whether the "value" field is inside a af:table????? if so i have doubt on the above code's working.....
