ADF Mobile : Oracle eCourse available
0Today Oracle published the first in a series of online eLearning training materials. The ADF Academy presents free and online : Developing Applications with ADF Mobile. The main goal is to deliver technical training material to everybody that needs it. You get an online training, where you can view audio and video to learn ADF. Whenever you want to you can stop the recordings to try out everything that you learned so far, or perhaps to get a drink.
Developing Applications with ADF Mobile is available here.
Take to opportunity and learn to work with a great framework to develop mobile applications for iOS and Adroid.
Also keep an eye on technology.amis.nl for more ADF Mobile related content.
ADF 11.1.1.7 : The return of the paging table (… and more ….)
0It looks like oracle made JDeveloper and ADF 11.1.1.7 available today. Perhaps not officially, but it can be downloaded. There are several interesting new components available. One of these is the codeEditor component which allows you to write code and have syntax highlighting. Not sure if I see a use case for this, but I’m in for a surprise. Also new are several DVT components such as the timeline, the sunburst and the treemap. And yes, hurray hurray, we now have the panelgridlayout available in 11gR1 ! Apparently there is also multi file upload. These are all very nice, but I’m also very enthusiastic about the return of the paging table.
This was the standard in 10g, but disappeared in 11g. It took 7 releases to get it back. In this post I describe how to use it. (more…)
ADF Mobile : Implementing the “Pull to Refresh” Pattern
0One very common pattern in Mobile Apps is the use of “pull” to refresh a list of data in an App.
For one of my projects I suggested to use this pattern and I had to figure out a way to implement this in ADF Mobile. In this post I show you a way to implement this. If you are only interested in the refresh part, you might want to skip the first 5 steps. These explain in short the webservice and the basic ADF Mobile app. From step 6 on I explain how to implement the pattern (more…)
ADF DVT Speed Date : Meeting The Hierarchy Viewer
1Recently the ADF Special Interest Group at AMIS organized an ADF DVT Speed Date. During this speed date, six ADF specialists from our team presented their favorite Data Visualization Component from the DVT library. In a series of blog posts we share the information with a broader audience. In this post you get introduced to the Hierarchy Viewer – which was my own date for this party.
Introduction : The Hierarchy Viewer
A Hierarchy viewer is typically used to display hierarchical data. Examples of this are for instance a tree of life or a mindmap or even a family tree.
The ADF hierarchy viewer consists of several ADF components.
- dvt:hierarchyViewer : This element wraps the dvt:node and the dvt:link elements
- dvt:node : The dvt:node element supports the use of one or more f:facet elements that display content at different zoom levels (100%, 75%, 50%, and 25%).
- dvt:link : connects one node with another node
- dvt:panelCard : The panel card element provides a method to dynamically switch between multiple sets of content referenced by a node element using animation by, for example, horizontally sliding the content or flipping a node over.
A hierarchy viewer component requires data More >
ADF Mobile : Device Interaction API – Pictures, GPS and Email With Attachments
0During the AMIS ADF Masterclass I showed how to take a picture from within an ADF Mobile application, attach it to an Email and send that email out to several recipients. To top it of, I even added the GPS coordinates to the subject, so you know where the picture was taken. And all of that with the push of one single button. Sounds complicated ? Well actually it is very simple. (more…)
