Using a polymorphic view object with binding

Hi,
I'm hoping there's something simple I'm missing when trying to setup up the bindings for a ADF/struts page using a polymorphic view object.
I'm using Entity and VO polymorphism to create a Question which has different types - boolean, multi-choice, likert, etc. I have the various question types created as sub type entity and view objects and added to the app module - when added to the app module the question types are subtypes of QuestionView so they don't actually appear in the Data Controls palette. This setup is like that used in Steve Muench's examples (blog at http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/stories/2003/02/06/constructingTheDesiredEntityInAPolymorphicViewObject.html and the related undocumented one)
My question is, how do I get to the data and have jdev create the necessary bindings for the extra attributes the subtype questions have? Since they don't appear as available data controls I can't create a binding iterator or anything for them - short of adding them as spearate view objects (which destroys the whole point of using polymorphism in this case) is there a way to do this?
Really, the only reason I want to use the polymorphism is so I can have different types of entity validation depending on the type. Should I just simplify this to be one entity object with one VO and put all the validation into "if else's" based on a discriminator?
Assistance appreciated...

How else are you planning to associate a JUTableBinding to the 'common' iterator containing all four types of rows and then selectively display them? Perhaps you'd need a custom model over the JUTabelModel that'd filter the rows out.
I'm not sure if all that trouble is worth it given that your datasets (as far as mentioned in this post) are not large. If these tables/data has to be refreshed/executed a number of times, then you may see the overhead of four queries otherwise it should be fine as database is always faster in filtering rows than doing that in memory.

  • View object with bind variables in subqueries

    Hi,
    i create view object with this query:
    Select /*+ use_nl(p p2) */
    'F' tipo_persona,
    p.ID_PERSONA, p.TDOC, p.NDOC, p.DENO
    From SINT_PERSONA p,

    AND (NDOC = :p_ndoc or
    :p_ndoc is null)
    and grado_confiab > 0
    My binding style is oracle named.
    Then I add the bind variables:
    p_cuit this is the only required
    p_ndoc
    p_deno
    but when i run the app module with p_cuit = 20123456780 i get this error:

    How can i do this ?
    thanks.

    Thanks! that's right the bind variables when i use it on where clause must be required, so i change my sql to:
    Select /*+ use_nl(p p2) */

    p.ID_PERSONA, p.TDOC, p.NDOC, p.DENO

    AND (deno = decode(:p_deno,'null',null,upper(:p_deno)) or
    :p_deno = 'null')
    AND (NDOC = decode(:p_ndoc,0,null,:p_ndoc) or
    :p_ndoc = 0)
    and grado_confiab > 0
    and my bind variables:

    p_cuit required default value 0
    p_deno required default value null

  • View object with bind variables on jsf page

    I have jsf page with selectoncechoice field and the list is populated with view object query.
    I would like to change the page to include another text field before the selectonechoice and add where clasue to my view object to use this field value
    so i can limit the selectonechoice list and i want the list refreshed each time where clause field values changes on the page
    Thanks

    If you make the inputText field autoSubmit=true then your valueChangeListener for the field in the backing bean can invoke the "ExecuteWithParams" operation binding after finding it from the binding container.
    If you include my EL helper class from here:
    http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/stories/2006/12/18/sourceForMyFavoriteElHelperClass.html
    Then your backing bean can do:
      // Find the operation binding by name using EL
      OperationBinding b = (OperationBinding)EL.get("#{bindings.ExecuteWithParams}");
      // execute the operation binding
      b.execute();

  • Paging issues using a dynamic view object...

    I am working on an application that uses JAG to generate JSP pages, i had the requirement to use dynamic view objects where the view object query is generated at runtime. The rest of the application is more or less the same... I used the defult functionality provided by TableScrollButtons.jsp file for paging. Now the problem im facing is that while the '>' and '<' buttons are working fine, i cant seem to navigate to the pages using the drop down...
    With the default handler, whenever i select the range the range displayed remains the same ie 1-10, 10 being the rangesize, but the rows are refreshed with values from the next page. Also, if the next page is the last and is incomplete, then the rows are pushed in from the bottom, so that the last page is always full...I tried the tuning panel in the view object edit dialogue and all settings are fine (i think)...could anyone please tell me what i am doing wrong??

    could it be because i am using a dynamic view object with dynamic bindings? i am using the preparemodel() method in the action as follows...
    protected void prepareModel(DataActionContext ctx) throws Exception {
    inferRangeBindingIfUnset(ctx);
    ctx.getBindingContainer().setEnableTokenValidation(false);
    String sql = ctx.getHttpServletRequest().getParameter("sql");
    String cost=ctx.getHttpServletRequest().getParameter("CostCostCent");
    String event=ctx.getHttpServletRequest().getParameter("event");
    if (sql != null && event == null) {
    setupDynamicQueryAndDynamicBindings(ctx,sql.substring(1),cost);
    if (retrieveOnlyCurrentPageFromDatabase()) {
    ViewObject vo = getIterForPaging(ctx).getViewObject();
    if (vo.getAccessMode() != ViewObject.RANGE_PAGING) {
    vo.setAccessMode(ViewObject.RANGE_PAGING);
    // if(event==null)
    super.prepareModel(ctx);
    ctx.getBindingContainer().setEnableTokenValidation(true);
    if (ctx.getEvents() == null || ctx.getEvents().size() ==0) {
    setPage(ctx,1);
    setLastPage(ctx,getIterForPaging(ctx).getRowSetIterator().getEstimatedRangePageCount());
    else if(event.equals("setRangeStart")) {

  • Inserting a new row in a BC4J View Object with an attribute of type BFileDomain

    Hi all,
    I've to insert a row in a View Object with an attribute of type oracle.jbo.domain.BFileDomain.

    Odd, have you disabled caching and indirection? (NoIdentityMap, dontUseIndirection, or alwaysRefresh/disableCacheHits). If so, then this could be the issue.
    Otherwise please include the sample code you use to perform this, and verify that you do not have any unusual code in your set/get methods or in descriptor events. Also turn TopLink logging on and include a sample. Also ensure that you do not modify your objects until after registering them in the unit of work, and only modify the unit of work clones.

  • View Object with User Defined Type input

    I am trying to use a View Object with a query that requires a user defined object as an input parameter.
    I have the query working with a PreparedStatement, but would like to use a View Object.
    When I use the PreparedStatement, I prepare the user defined type data like this:
    // get the data into an object array
    Object[] wSRecObjArr = wSRec.getObjectArray();
    // set up rec descriptor
    StructDescriptor WSRecDescriptor = StructDescriptor.createDescriptor("WS_REC",conn);
    // populate the record struct
    STRUCT wSRecStruct = new STRUCT(WSRecDescriptor,conn,wSRecObjArr);
    Then I can use this in the PreparedStatement like this:
    OraclePreparedStatement stat = null;
    ResultSet rs = null;
    stat = (OraclePreparedStatement)conn.prepareStatement("Select test_pkg.test_function(?) FROM DUAL");
    stat.setSTRUCT(1, wSRecStruct);
    rs = stat.executeQuery();
    I would like to do the same process with a View Object instead of the PreparedStatement.
    My question is "How do I create the input objects"?
    I obtain the View Object from the Application Module using findViewObject(). I don't actually have a connection object to pass into the StructDescriptor.createDescriptor method.
    I have tried just using Java Object Arrays (Object[]) to pass the data, but that gave an error:
    oracle.jbo.SQLStmtException: JBO-27122: SQL error during statement preparation.
    Any help or pointers are greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Custom domains are the way to go.
    When I try to pass custom domains that represent my user defined types - it works.
    However, one of the functions requires a table of a user defined type be passed in.
    I tried creating a domain of the table type. It forces me to add a field during creation (in JDEV), so I tried adding a field of type Array of Element of the domain representing the user defined type.
    I populate the table by setting the field I created, but the table is empty in PL/SQL (TEST_TAB.COUNT = 0).
    I also tried passing the oracle.jbo.domain.Array object, but that produced an error:
    java.sql.SQLException: ORA-06553: PLS-306: wrong number or types of arguments in call
    I also tried passing Object[], but that produced an error:
    oracle.jbo.SQLStmtException: JBO-27122: SQL error during statement preparation.
    How do I properly create, and pass an domain that represents a table of a user defined type?
    When I use a OraclePreparedStatement, I can pass a oracle.sql.ARRAY using stat.setARRAY.
    Thank you for the help you have provided, and any future advice.

  • Problem extending standard ViewReceiptsSearchVO view object with logic on get method

    Hi All,
    EBS 12.1.3
    Database 11.2.0.3
    I am trying to extend the 3 VOs related to ViewReceiptsSearch.  I extended a seeded ViewReceiptsSearchVO view object.  I haven't made any changes yet, no columns added, nothing altered.  When I run this substitution, the "Received" column is null.  This column in the view used for the view object only selects NULL and uses the getter method for the attribute to populate the value.  The generated extension getter calls getAttributeInternal and skips the logic in the standard getter and the substituted view object is displaying the null in the screen.  The below discussion explains the problem very well except that the original posted had the issue in 11.5.10.2.  I am having this issue with 12.1.3.
    Problem extending standard view object with logic on get method
    The 3 VOs that I am having the problem are:

    What do I need to do to get the "Received" column populated?  Please let me know any additional information you want to troubleshoot the issue.
    Thanks.

  • View Object with ?-style query parameters - best place to locate code

    I am using a View Object with ?-style parameters, with a JClient applet. The query

    viewObject.executeQuery();
    Right now the above code is located in the applet. Is it more efficient to code this as a

    the supplied parameters?
    I'm still unclear as to how network traffic is affected by running code like this on the client
    as opposed to the server. Maybe someone could point me to a comprehensive dic that covers this.

    You may run your application in Events profiler to get a list of 'roundtrip' calls being made in your app.
    Select Project-Settings->Profiler panel->Events panel.
    Deselect all events, expand BC4J events and select REMOTE_METHOD_CALL event type (1016). Then Profile your app using the event profiler and the profiler will list all the calls that BC4J roundtrip calls. You may use this info to narrow down the roundtrips by batching up operations in an exported method etc.

  • Creating View Object with different criteria

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to execute the following queries in the application logic. We have YEAR table with mileage rates with different effective dates. If the service date is greater than any of the existing effective dates we need to get the rate with that effective date. if the service date is less than the existing effective dates, then we have to get the rate with least effective date.
    SELECT mileage_rate, ... FROM year
    WHERE eff_date =  (SELECT MAX(eff_date) FROM   year WHERE  eff_date <= :bServiceDate)
    SELECT MILEAGE_RATE, .... FROM YEAR WHERE
    EFF_DATE =  (SELECT MIN(EFF_DATE) FROM YEAR)
    We have to execute the 1st query and if there is no matching records then we have to take the second query with min effective date. At present we are creating two view objects for the above scenario. Is there any possibility to create one view object with different criteria. What is the best solution to handle the above problem in ADF.
    Thanks and Regards,
    S R Prasad

    Well on the ViewObjectImpl you can fire the method getQueryHitCount() passing in the required ViewRowSetImpl. If you get the query hit count as 0, use can attached the other query and execute it.

  • How to Create an Input Form using a Transient View Object?

    I would like to use a Transient View Object to store data from input forms across a multiple-page enrollment process.
    My question is how to I create the input form using the Transient View Object on the .jspx page? Do I drag/drop an ADF creation form onto the page? Or, use a regular ADF form? Do I need to create the initial row progammatically?
    Just looking for some general directions or set of instructions? I've looked at the SRDemo example (Globals Transient View Object), but I'm not sure how they created the page at design time?
    thanks

    Well following the SRDemo example, this seems to work:
    1. Create Transient View Object
    2. Add to Application Module as a Data control
    3. Add to .jspx page as an ADF Form (not as an ADF Create Form)
    4. Add following code to Application Module containting Transient VO instance:
    protected void prepareSession(Session session) {
    super.prepareSession(session);
    insertTransientViewObjRows();
    private void insertTransientViewObjRows() {
    ViewObject transientvo = getViewObj1();
    transientvo.clearCache();
    transientvo.insertRow(transientvo.createRow());

  • Use View Object with Alternative Data Sources in View Link

    In my case, I created a view object based on alternative data source (not with SQL query). I have setQuery(null) in the override create() function for this View Object. When I use this View Object at the destination end of the View Link, the setQuery(null) will raise Jbo-26016 exception (You cannot set customer query (calling setQuery()) on a view object if it is the detail view object in a master detail view link.) which does not allow me to do that. I looked Avrom's Framework for Database API-Based ADF BC, in which he override the DBTransaction and CallableStatement in order to intercept the default query clause set by the View Link. I'd like to see if there is any alternative ways to achieve my objective?

    Just following up what I found so far. I'm trying to use customized View Object based on alternative data source at the destination end of View Link with ADF 10.1.3.
    1. For the View Object at the destination end of View Link, I can not call setQuery() which will raise Jbo-26016 exception.
    2. I can omit the setQuery(null) call in my customized ViewObjectImpl, and as long as there is no SQL statement in the View Definition XML, it won't cause problem when calling the executeQueryForCollection() of the super class.
    3. The override executeQueryForCollection() must call the super.executeQueryForCollection() in order to get appropriate result (I tried to skip the call and it does not give back any results)
    4. The funny thing is, when I make getQuery() call in my customized ViewObjectImpl (I'm just trying to double check if the Query object is clean or not), the query object is set to "SELECT FROM" following the getQuery() call, and which causes the exceptions when I call super.exeuteQueryForCollection(). I found out later from the Javadoc API which is implemented in that way.
    So I guess my case is resolved by not making specific call to setQuery(null).

Maybe you are looking for
