Hi, this is a great example and I got this working after some head scratching with ADF Faces in JDev 10.1.3.4. I’ve also implemented calling a Spring service method via specifying org.springframework.web.jsf.DelegatingVariableResolver in the faces-config.xml. I’m wondering which is the best method to integrate Spring. Via faces-config.xml is much easier than the DataControl route but drag/drop on the DataControl onto a page gives more UI options. Thanks for the work you did on this. Much appreciated.

I was incredibly excited to find this post, however in Jdeveloper 11 the DataControlFactoryImpl.class looks completely different. I have seen other posts about a plugin for Jdeveloper and Spring now? Any comments on this?

I wanted to find out whether I can use Spring Framework instead of ADF (Full) Frameork with ADF Rich components and Trinidad. If yes, how much work is involved as compared to using ADF Framwork. Does Spring Framework intergrate smoothly with ADF Faces Rich Components?

I think this excellent example is a bit outdated. I am trying to learn from it, but so far haven’t managed to make it work.

I haven’t managed to find any “UIX” files. my DataBindings.cpx file looks very different from the one provided in the example. I am getting errors and I am not quite sure what’s wrong…

Has anyone tried this with JDeveloper 10.1.3.2.0.4066 ?

I am stuck. If anyone can offer any pointers to possible solutions I will be most grateful.

Best regards and thanks in advance,
Ãlvaro.

Hello there. This article’s great, but just when I was ready to run my JSP page…

I am getting a “Error(113,19): constructor DCGenericDataControl() has protected access in class oracle.adf.model.generic.DCGenericDataControl” when compiling.

Apparently, the “offending” line is right at the end of SpringBeanDataControlFactoryImpl.java

Do you know another way of getting hold of a DCGenericDataControl ?

Thank you in advance

Have you had a chance to look into doing this on JDeveloper 11g. I have tried without success.

Thanks for the example! Seems to be working like a charm…

Any ideas about screens that need to do updates? The returned objects from the DAO aren’t smart enough to know they are editted and need to be put through the DAO again to be processed by hibernate. In BC4J this all is done by the datacontrol and the viewobject…

Which version of Oracle software did you use to register the Spring Business Service as Data Control ? I tried to deploy the project on the latest version of JDev and OAS (10.1.3) but I have many different issues.

Lucas — Thanks for writing this! It’s a nice, straightforward example of how ADF can collaborate with Spring. I have a couple of questions. 1. Lifetime? I don’t quite understand how ADF will handle instantiation of the HrmServiceImpl class — will it be re-instantiated each time there is a reference to the service, or can I set the IsPersistent property and avoid the startup costs associated with recreating the class? 2. Pooling? Is the service in essence a singleton or can I create a pool of HrmService objects? (Sorry if my EJB influence is showing). HrmService looks pretty stateless to me.

Thanks again for your help!
