ADF 11g : Query Component with ‘dynamic’ view criteria
Oct 18th
In my current project use a lot of re usable taskflows. In one particular situation I needed exactly the same taskflow to be re-used with one tiny small difference: The displayed query component needed to have different fields compared to page in the base taskflow. Now there are lots of possible solutions (two query components and a switcher, or two query components using the rendered property). I choose a different solution using ternary operator and EL in the page definition Read the rest of this entry »
ADF 11g R2 : Using the ActiveRowKey property
Aug 31st
In ADF 11g Release 2, the ADF Table component has a property called ‘ActiveRowKey’. According to documentation, this represents the row that is currently active on the client. In click-to-edit mode, the active row will be made editable and is brought into view (if not already visible).

Based on this post a colleague of mine tried to display a PDF document. That didn’t work. In this post I explain how you can use a servlet to open a PDF document in the inline frame.

KSCOPE 2011: Keynote & Award Recognition
Jun 30th
While the congrats are getting in via the usual virtual channels like Twitter and mail for being awarded the best speaker awards for the Database (Alex Nuijten) and Fusion Middleware (Luc Bors) tracks, I would like to mention that great Keynote session on Monday that was put together by the ODTUG Kaleidoscope board. The board created some hilarious movies while using these as a bridge to speak about the bit more serious topics like last years awards, “thank you”-s for the people out there that made it all work and for example the new location of Kaleidosope 2012. Via my YouTube channel you can see sketches of: “The Bachelorette”, “Big Brother” and others…
To give you a taste of what was shown:
Have fun and see us at Oracle Open World or at Kaleidoscope 2012
