Task flow question

Question

I have couple of jsf pages in adfc-config. Also, I have a bounded task flow. I want to invoke this bounded tf after users entered data in those unbounded tf pages. Thank you.

Answer 1

One way to accomplish this is by calling the task flow programmatically from a backing bean. This can be done by calling ControllerContext.getTaskFlowURL() to retrieve the task flow URL and return it as an action. Here is some sample code that you will need to adapt:
// return your task flow URL action
public String getYourTaskFlowAction() {
    // if you are passing parameters to the task flow, add them
    Map<String,Object> parameters = new HashMap<String,Object>();
    parameters.put("yourParameter",yourParameterValue);
    TaskFlowId taskflowId = TaskFlowId.parse("/task-flows/YourTaskFlow.xml#YourTaskFlow");
    String taskflowUrl = ControllerContext.getInstance().getTaskFlowURL(false, taskflowId , parameters);
    // returning the URL, will invoke the task flow
    return taskflowUrl;
}In order for this to work, you will also need to set the task flow URL Invoke property to url-invoke-allowed.
Another way would be to call the bounded task flow via a Task Flow Call directly from your unbounded task flow.
