Why String Search in not working in ADF.?

Question

Hi,
    I've created application in ADF with Search Options. Search Operation is working for all the Integer Values in that page but its not working for String Values.
I dont know why its not able to search String Values.
My AppModule bean Code :
                package model.portfolio.portfolio.am;
import model.portfolio.portfolio.am.common.PortfolioAppModuleAM;
import model.portfolio.portfolio.view.ResourceViewChildObjImpl;
import oracle.jbo.VariableValueManager;
import oracle.jbo.ViewCriteria;
import oracle.jbo.server.ApplicationModuleImpl;
import oracle.jbo.server.ViewLinkImpl;
import oracle.jbo.server.ViewObjectImpl;
public class PortfolioAppModuleAMImpl extends ApplicationModuleImpl implements PortfolioAppModuleAM {
     * This is the default constructor (do not remove).
    public PortfolioAppModuleAMImpl() {
    public void applyVCforGlobalSearchPortfolios(String theString){
        ViewObjectImpl vo = getPortfolio1();
        ViewCriteria vc = vo.getViewCriteria("PortfolioVOCriteria");
        System.out.println("On Criteria");
        vc.resetCriteria();
        VariableValueManager vvm = vc.ensureVariableManager();
        System.out.println("On String");
        vvm.setVariableValue("globalSearchString", theString);
        System.out.println("After String");
        vo.applyViewCriteria(vc,true);
        vo.executeQuery();
*All Getters and Setter of all VO and VLs****
My Query created in View Criteria :
( (UPPER(SHORTNAME) LIKE UPPER( :globalSearchString || '%') ) OR (UPPER(DESCRIPTION) LIKE UPPER( :globalSearchString || '%') ) AND (PROGRAMMES_COUNT = :globalSearchString ) OR (KK_COUNT = :globalSearchString ) OR (KPI_KRA_VALUE = :globalSearchString ) )
One more interesting thing in After Creating the View Criteria If i try to Test this Query, Its giving me error msg as
"Cannot complete query to determine the view attributes.  Either the query is invalid or timeout occurs.  Please revise the query or create the view attributes manually.
"com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ':globalSearchString || '%') ) OR (UPPER(QRSLT.DESCRIPTION) LIKE UPPER( :globalSe' at line 1"
I don know why... Can somebody please help me?
Im using Jdev 12C

Binding variables will be different from oracle database and My Sql database.
Oracle database use this (:) for defining bindVariable but in My Sql use this (?)
Try to remove the view criteria which you define in View Object and you can make it programmatically like this:
    ViewObject vo = getPortfolio1();
    ViewCriteria vc = vo.createViewCriteria();
    ViewCriteriaRow vcr = vc.createViewCriteriaRow();
    vcr.setAttribute("Attribute1", value);
    vcr.setAttribute("Attribute2", value);
    vc.add(vcr);
    vo.applyViewCriteria(vc);
    vo.executeQuery();
