3. Download dbc file of Oracle application instance from $FND_TOP/secure

( it is like a tnsnames.ora file having connection detail )

Place the file at location D:\p8431482_R12_GENERIC\jdevhome\jdev\dbc_files\secure

4. Open JDeveloper and set database connection goto Connection Navigator > Database and create a new connection


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Note Give user name and password do not give any role and do not check Deploy Password checkbox


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Note Give Host Name, JDBC port, and SID. Keep driver as thin.

Now JDeveloper is ready to use

5. Create a sample workspace and project to know setting during creation of project

1. Goto Application Navigator right click > New > General > Workspace Configured for Oracle Applications

2. Give workspace name


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

3. Give project name and Default package

Note Default package is

[<subcomponent>]

Example: mycompany.oracle.apps.po.requisition.webui


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

4. Give database connection detail

5. Give your dbc file location, application username, application password, application short name, and responsibility key

i.e. Application short key and responsibility key is nothing but assigned responsibility detail to the application user for example if application user has System Administrator responsibility then Application short name will be “SYSADMIN” and responsibility key will be “SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR”. These values are required to compile and run the page because page required context during run time so it will login the application with given username and password and it will take context from assigned responsibility

Clear/ Reset Result Table of Search page in OAF

Normally problem faced by developers after creating Search Page is how to Clear/ Reset Result Table when developer open search page first time or after search when developer redirecting back to same search page from any other page (say delete page or update page)

Add following Code in your Search page Controller where you have constructed your Query Region

import oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.beans.layout.OAQue-ryBean; ...

public void processRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean) { super.processRequest(pageContext, webBean);

OAQueryBean queryBean = (OAQueryBean)webBean.findChil-dRecursive("QueryRN"); // Here QueryRN is your Query Region Name as shown in fol-lowing snap shot

queryBean.clearSearchPersistenceCache(pageContext); }

Note –

After add this code, no need to worry about state of Application Module (AM). This code will clean up result table automatically every time when you will open Search page first time and when


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

you are redirecting back to search page. But still as per good coding standard while redirecting back to search page always keep AM state to FALSE

-- Master Table

CREATE TABLE master_table_demo ( -- --------------------- -- Data Columns -- --------------------- Column1 VARCHAR2(100), Column2 VARCHAR2(100), -- ---------------------- -- Who Columns -- ----------------------


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

last_update_date DATE NOT NULL, last_updated_by NUMBER NOT NULL, creation_date DATE NOT NULL, created_by NUMBER NOT NULL, last_update_login NUMBER );

-- Detail Table

CREATE TABLE detail_table_demo ( -- --------------------- -- Data Columns -- --------------------- Column1 VARCHAR2(100), Column2 VARCHAR2(100), -- ---------------------- -- Who Columns -- ---------------------- last_update_date DATE NOT NULL, last_updated_by NUMBER NOT NULL, creation_date DATE NOT NULL, created_by NUMBER NOT NULL, last_update_login NUMBER );

Note – Consider Master Table is Linked to Detail Table with Column1

4. Lets put some data in the tables

-- Insert Data into Master Table

INSERT INTO master_table_demo VALUES ( ‘VAL1’, ‘VAL2’, SYSDATE, 0, SYSDATE, 0, 0);

INSERT INTO master_table_demo VALUES ( ‘VAL3’, ‘VAL4’, SYSDATE, 0, SYSDATE, 0, 0);

-- Insert Data into Detail Table

INSERT INTO detail_table_demo VALUES ( ‘VAL1’, ‘VAL6’, SYSDATE, 0, SYSDATE, 0, 0);

INSERT INTO detail_table_demo VALUES ( ‘VAL3’, ‘VAL8’,

Oracle D2K to OA Framework Transformation

What is the difference between Oracle D2K form and OA Framework?It is a very innocent but important question for someone that desires to make transition from D2K to OA Framework. I hope you have already read and implemented OA Framework Getting Started.

I will re-visit my own experience of implementing HelloWorld program in "OA Framework". When I implemented HelloWorld a year ago, I had no clue as to what I was doing & why I was doing those steps. I merely copied the steps from Oracle Tutorial without understanding them.

Hence in this blog, I will try to explain in simple manner the meaning of OA Framework HelloWorld Program and compare the steps to D2K form [where possible]. To keep things simple, only basics will be discussed.

Following key Steps were needed for HelloWorld

Step 1

Create a new Workspace and a new Project as dictated by Oracle's tutorial. When defining project, you will specify a default package, which in this case was oracle.apps.ak.hello

This means the following: -

ak is the short name of the Application in Oracle

[means fnd_applications.short_name]

hello is the name of your project

Step 2

Next, you will create a OA Page within hello project

Think OA Page as the fmx file itself in D2K. I am saying so because this page gets attached to the form function.

This page will be created within hello project, hence the package nameoracle.apps.ak.hello.webui


https://blogs.oracle.com/prajkumar/entry/d2k_to_oa_framework_transition

Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Note the webui, it is a convention to have page in webui, means this page represents the Web User In-terface

You will assign the default AM [OAApplicationMod-ule]. Think of AM "Connection Manager" and "Transac-tion State Manager" for your page

I can't co-relate this to anything in D2k, as there is no concept of Connection Pooling and that D2k is not stateless. Reason being that as soon as you kick off a D2K Form, it connects to a single session of Oracle and sticks to that single Oracle database session. So is not the case in OAF, hence AM is needed.

Step 3

You create Region within the Page.

Region is what will store your fields. Text input fields will be of type messageTextInput. Think of Canvas in D2K. You can have nested regions. Stacked Canvas in D2K comes the closest to this component of OA Framework

Step 4

Add a button to one of the nested regions

The itemStyle should be submitButton, in case you want the page to be submitted when this button is clicked

There is no WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger in OAF. In Framework, you will add a controller java code to handle events like Form Submit button clicks. JDevel-oper generates the default code for you. Primarily two functions [should I call methods] will be created pro-cessRequest [for UI Rendering Handling] and process-FormRequest

Think of processRequest as WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE, though processRequest is very restrictive.

Note

What is the difference between processRequest and processFormRequest?

These two methods are available in the Default Controller class that gets created.

processFormRequest


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

This method is commonly used to react/respond to the event that has taken place, for example click of a button.

Some examples are

if(oapagecontext.getParameter("Cancel") != null) (Do your processing for Cancellation/ Rollback)

if(oapagecontext.getParameter("Submit") != null) (Do your validations and commit here)

if(oapagecontext.getParameter("Update") != null) (Do your validations and commit here)

In the above three examples, you could be calling oapagecontext.forwardImmediately to re-direct the page navigation to some other page if needed.

processRequest

In this method, usually page rendering related code is written. Effectively, each GUI component is a bean that gets initialised during processRequest. Those who are familiar with D2K forms, something like pre-query may be written in this method.

Step 5

In the controller to access the value in field "HelloName" the command is

String userContent = pageContext.getParameter("HelloName");

In D2k, we used :block.field.

In OAFramework, at submission of page, all the field values get passed into to OAPageContext object.

Use getParameter to access the field value To set the value of the field, use

OAMessageTextInputBean field

HelloName = (OAMessageTextInputBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("HelloName"); fieldHelloName.setText(pageContext,"Setting the default value" );

Note when setting field value in controller:


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Note 1. Do not set the value in processFormRequest Note 2. If the field comes from View Object, then do not use setText in controller Note 3. For control fields [that are not based on View Objects], you can use setText to assign values in processRequest method

Lets take some notes to expand beyond the HelloWorld Project

Note 1

In D2K-forms we sort of created a Window, attached to Canvas, and then fields within that Canvas.

However in OA Framework, think of Page being fmx/Window, think of Region being a Canvas, and fields being within Regions. This is not a formal/accurate understanding of analogy between D2k and Framework, but is close to being logical.

Note 2

In D2k, your Forms fmb file was compiled to fmx. It was fmx file that was deployed on mid-tier. In case of OAF, your OA Page is nothing but a XML file. We call this MDS [meta data].

Whatever name you give to "Page" in OAF, an XML file of the same name gets created. This xml file must then be loaded into database by using XML Importer command.

Note 3

Apart from MDS XML file, almost everything else is merely deployed to your mid-tier. Usually this is underneath $JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/../.. All java files will go underneath java top/oracle/apps/../.. etc.

Note 4

When building tutorial, ignore the steps for setting "Attribute Sets". These are not mandatory. Oracle might just have developed their tutorials without including these. Think of these like Visual Attributes of D2K forms

Note 5

Controller is where you will write any java code in OA


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Framework. You can create a Controller per Page or have a different Controller for each of the Regions with the same Page.

Note 6

In the method processFormRequest of the Controller, you can access the values of the page by using notation pageContext.getParameter("<fieldname here>").

This method processFormRequest is executed when the OAF Screen/Page is submitted by click of a button.

Note 7

Inside the controller, all the Database Related interactions for example interaction with View Objects happen via Application Module.

But why so? Because Application Module Manages the transaction state of the Application.

OAApplicationModuleImpl oaapplicationmoduleimpl =

OAApplicationModuleImpl)oapagecontext.getApplicationModule(oawebbean);

OADBTransaction oadbtransaction =

OADBTransaction)oaapplicationmoduleimpl.getDBTransaction();

Note 8

In D2K, we have control block or a block based on database view. Similarly, in OA Framework, if the field does not have view Object attached, then it is like a control field. Hence in HelloWorld example, field HelloName is a control field [in D2K terminology]. A view Object can either be based on a view/table, synonym or on a SQL statement.

Note 9

I wish to access the fields in multi record block that is based on view Object. Can I do this in Controller? Sure you can. To traverse through those records, do the below

Get the reference to the View Object using


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

(OAViewObject)oapagecontext.getApplicationModule(oawebbean).findViewObject("VO Name Here")

Loop through the records in View Objects using count returned from oaviewobject.getFetchedRowCount()

For each record, fetch the value of the fields within the loop as

oracle.jbo.Row row = oaviewobject.getRowAtRangeIndex(loop index here);

(String)row.getAttribute("Column name of VO here ");

Controller Extension in OAF

Oracle does not recommend that customers extend

controller objects associated with regions or webbeans

in shipped E-Business Suite product pages.

Controller class (oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OAControllerImpl) methods should effectively be considered private, since their implementation is subject to change. Controller extensions are therefore not considered to be durable between upgrades.

If it is absolutely essential to handle custom form submit events on a shipped product page, processFormRequest() is the only method that should be overriden in a controller class, although the risks outlined above still apply.

Let us try to Extend Controller in OAF Page –

Create one search page as explained in below link –


In this exercise I am going to extend CO of SearchPG. First lets create CO for SearchPG.

Right Click PageLayoutRN under SearchPG page > Set New Controller


Class Name -- SearchCO

Now we will extend this newly created CO under this exercise.

The purpose of this exercise is to modify the VO query of results table. I have changed theColumn1 and Column2 fields Property Selective Search Criteria as False.

Now when we click on Go button all the records are displaying in the results table and our OBJECTIVE is to bind the VO query of results table in such a way that in result Column1 valueval5 and Column2 value val6 should not come as result on click Go button

Application Module Extension in OAF

Like the Controller extension, AM extension is also not

supported by Oracle. However for some business needs

we have to extend it sometimes.

In this exercise we have taken our “Data Entry OAF page” can be found @https://blogs.oracle.com/prajkumar/en-try/insert_data_oaf_page to extend application module i.e. In-sertAM

This AM can be found under below BC4J packageprajkumar.o-racle.apps.fnd.insertdemo.server.InsertAM

Why we are extending AM:-

This InsertAM contains an apply method which subsequently commits the transaction.

public void apply() { getTransaction().commit(); }

Our business need is to capture user name and user id at run-time and insert it into a custom audit table for audit purpose

Here is Audit Table script --

CREATE TABLE xx_audit ( -- ------------------- -- Data Columns -- -------------------- user_id VARCHAR(50), user_name VARCHAR(50), -- ------------------- -- Who Columns -- ------------------- last_update_date DATE NOT NULL, last_updated_by NUMBER NOT NULL, creation_date DATE NOT NULL, created_by NUMBER NOT NULL, last_update_login NUMBER );

Steps to Extend Application Module (AM)

Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Write following code in ExtendedAMImpl.java

import oracle.apps.fnd.framework.OAException; import java.sql.PreparedStatement; import java.sql.Connection;

public class ExtendedAMImpl extends InsertAMImpl { .... public void apply() { java.sql.Date d = getOADBTransaction().getCurrentDBDate().dateValue(); try { Connection conn = getOADBTransaction().getJdbcConnec-tion(); String Query = "insert into xx_audit values(:1,:2,:3,:4,:5,:6,:7)"; PreparedStatement stmt = conn.prepareStatement(Query);


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

stmt.setInt(1, getOADBTransaction().getUserId()); stmt.setString(2, getOADBTransaction().getUserName()); stmt.setDate(3, d); stmt.setInt(4, getOADBTransaction().getUserId()); stmt.setDate(5, d); stmt.setInt(6, getOADBTransaction().getUserId()); stmt.setInt(7, getOADBTransaction().getUserId()); stmt.execute(); } catch(Exception exception) { throw new OAException("Error in Staffing Query"+exception, OAException.ERROR); } super.apply(); } }

EO based VO Extension in OAF

In the exercise we have taken “OAF Search Page“can be

found @


We are going to extend SearchVO of SearchPG page. Our busi-ness requirement is to addCreation Date attribute in the re-sults table region

1. Analyze the Page

Click on “About this Page” link to check that which ViewOb-ject is associated with the table region [ResultsRN]




Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Here we can see that results table has SearchVO attached to it. Now click on Business Component Reference details and check the path of SearchVO


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Now click on SearchVO which is an EO based [SearchEO] to check whether it has Creation Date attribute or not which we want to add

Here we can see that our VO does not have CreationDate at-tribute.

So for adding this attribute we need to perform VO Extension.

FTP this project from application server and open in JDeveloper




Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Note -- Now as our attribute created as Transient hence to fix this issue we have two options:

1. We need to correct our XML file generated as it is a known error with Jdeveloper

2. Double click on that attribute i.e CreationDate and in the View Object Attribute window, enter attribute name in 'Expres-sion' column i.e. CreationDate

Lets try first method --

Open your ExtSearchVO.xml file in some notepad editor.

OA Framework Best Practices

AM Retention : Retaining the AM where not required, Not retaining it wherever required – both are dangerous!! The AM should be retained whenever you are navigating away from a page and when you know that there is a possibility to come back to the page again and data is to be retained. Example : Any navigation link that opens in a new page or any navigation which has a back button to come back to the initial page. The AM should not be retained for two independent pages, especially if they have common VOs which fetch different result sets. In such cases, retaining the AM may not remove the cache of VOs and so the result may not be as expected.

Setting dynamic whereClause : Avoid setting where clauses dynamically as far as possible. And when required, set the where clause and where clause params to null before setting your new where clause. Remember that the where clause once set will be retained through out. So it’s a best practice to make it null wherever it is not required. Creating two VOs is always better than using a single VO with two dynamic where clauses.

Fetch Profile Value : Fetching the values like profile , orgId, testFunction etc can be done in two ways.1. Fetching it from pageContext.

Syntax : pageContext.getProfile(‘XXWHO_ENTITY’);

2. Write a VO to query the values directly from the data base.

Syntax: SELECT FND_PROFILE.VALUE(‘XXWHO_ENTITY’)

FROM DUAL


http://digitalspace.wordpress.com/2007/11/28/oa-framework-best-practices/

Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

The first option brings the data from the cache, so it takes time for the changed values to be reflected in front-end. But the second option is costly performance wise. So its better to invalidate cache regularly and use the first option to fetch such kind of values.

Whenever you are executing a VO or creating rows in a VO in the process request, do it conditionally. Let it not get executed every time the process request is called. Ex: if(fromPage == “CorrectPage”) { vo.executeQuery(); } This avoids duplicate data or data loss whenever your page is rendered from a dialog page or back button etc.

If you want any values of your CO to be available in your EO, put those values in transaction. Do this only if it is very much required. Should not create unnecessary transactions anywhere. Only get the already existing transaction object from AM using getTransaction() Method.

Make it a point to remove all the session parameters and transaction parameters soon after their utilization. Should be very careful with session parameters because they result in unnecessary data and it’s often difficult to debug.

Passing too many parameters through hashmap not only effects the performance but it also effects the UI

Avoid writing huge code in CO. No business logic should be written in the CO or AM. Try creating private methods in controller wherever you have redundant code.


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Create separate interface per module for declaring all your constant variables rather than hardcoding the values in the code.Ex : You want to use a lookup name n number of times in your coding. Instead of hardcoding it everywhere, declare it in your constants interface and use the constant in your code. Tomorrow, If you have to change the lookup, you can change it at a single place (in the constants interface) and save time.

Whenever you have to get or set values of a VO use get/set<Attribute_name> method instead of getAttribute(index) method. Because the getAttribute(index) traverses through the entire attributeset in order to find the required attribute which is a performance issueEx: Say, you have an attribute called SelectFlag with attribute index as n . To get the value, use getSelectFlag instead of getAttribute(n).

HGrid cache: Hgrid is one of the components in OAF which gives major surprises to the developer everytime. Should be very careful while creating the viewlink. Remember to clear the cache of the hgrid each time the hgrid is rendered or the hgrid query is executed.Syntax : hgridBean.clearCache();To expand the hgrid upto nth level by default (i.e to expand the tree structure upto nth child), use the following syntax :

hgridBean.setAutoExpansionMaxLevels(n); Better to call sequences from the create method of EO

rather than calling them from custom methods in AM. Infact, set all the default values or who columns for attributes here only.


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

Always reset a VO before iterating it. Especially when getting the values of a radio button selection etc.Ex :vo.reset();while(vo.hasNext()){ // get handle of the vo’s current row and perform ur operations; // break the loop after reaching the last record of the current rowset.}

Set any VO’s where clause and where clause params in VOImpl class rather than creating directly in CO. This increases reusability and modularity. But you don’t have to set any where clause or where clause params and should directly execute the query, then need not use VOImpl for calling the executeQuery() method.

Exception Handling : Proper exception handling is a must. Put your code in proper try –catch blocks wherever possible.If your code ,which is in try-catch block, have to throw OAException anywhere, that will be caught and will not be shown to the user. Hence use the following statement in the catch block to throw the OAExceptions to the user :

try{ throw new OAException(“APP_CODE”, “ER-ROR_MSG”); }catch(Exception _exception) { throw OAException.wrapperException(_excep-tion); }

Use the following syntax for logging your exception in the log file

if(pageContext.isLoggingEnabled(4)) {


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

pageContext.writeDiagnostics(getClass().getName()+”.processFormRequest”, “Exception Details : “, 4); }

Do not catch your exceptions wherever they occurred (ex in AM). The exception must always be thrown back to the calling method . So all the exceptions must be finally caught in the CO.

Calling AM methods in CO : Those of you who have used invokeMethod() in CO to call the AM methods might have observed that it’s the most tedious way of calling methods, especially when you have to send serialized parameters. Importing the AMImpl class in your controller allows you to access the AM methods directly without the use of invokeMethod() but it breaks the basic OAF standards coz u r accessing a class in the server package from a class in the webui package. To overcome the above, the best practice is to create an Interface of the AMImpl (which neither belongs to server nor webui) and use this AM Interface in your CO rather than AMImpl class. To create an interface in Jdeveloper, double click on the AM , select ‘client methods’ and shuttle the required methods to right side. It automatically creates an interface for you with the selected methods.Example for getting the object of the interface :

XXWPHomeWorkPlanAM workPlanHomeAM = (XXW-PHomeWorkPlanAM)pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean).findApplicationModule(“XXWPHomeWorkPlanAM

Understanding Query Regions

When you add a query region to a pageLayout region, OA Framework automatically

generates an oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.beans.layout.OAQueryBean which,

depending on its configuration, works in concert with a child table, advanced table or

HGrid to implement any combination of simple search, advanced search and view

panels. OA Framework automatically generates buttons as appropriate for toggling

between the applicable regions.

Construction Modes:


Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

There are three construction modes available. In the above example we have

used ‘resultBasedSearch’construction mode. Here is a brief comparison of the three

modes.

1] resultsBasedSearch:

OA Framework automatically renders both the Simple and Advanced search re-

gions based on the designated queryable items in the associated table.

The search regions automatically include both a Go and a Clear button.

OA Framework automatically executes the underlying search when the user se-

lects the Go button.

2] autoCustomizationCriteria:

OA Framework automatically renders both the Simple and Advanced search re-

gions based on the corresponding Simple search and Advanced search regions

that you define and specify as named children of the query region.

The search regions automatically include a Go button. In addition, the Ad-

vanced search region includes a Clear button.

OA Framework automatically executes the underlying search when the user se-

lects the Go button. However, developers must explicitly define mappings be-

tween items in the Search panel and items in the table region.

3] none

The Search regions are rendered based on the Simple Search and Advanced

Search regions that you define and specify as named children of the query re-

gion.

You must implement your own Go button in this mode.

The underlying search must be executed by the developer.

OAException Message and Dialog Page in OA Framework

You can use OAException (or any of its subclasses) to display a message on an OA

Framework page and the OA Framework automatically displays an error message at the

top of the current page.

You can display the following standard kinds of messages at the top of a page:

Error

Warning

Confirmation

Information

You can explicitly display a message box of any type using the following code in your

controller.

1 OAException message = new OAException("You cannot create a new change order when a Draft version already exits.",OAException.ERROR);

2 pageContext.putDialogMessage(message);

Here you need to construct an oracle.apps.fnd.framework.OAException object and set

the kind of message you want (other options are OAException.WARNING,

OAException.INFORMATION and OAException.CONFIRMATION). Then you can simply

identify this exception for display when the page renders by calling the

OAPageContext.putDialogMessage() method.

If — after you call putDialogMessage() in your processFormRequest() method — you

want to forward to the current page or another page and display the message at the top

of the new target page, you need to call the appropriate

oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OAPageContext forwardImmediately*() method. The

OA Framework immediately stops processing the page and issues a forward before

displaying the messages.

You can register or throw multiple exceptions; the OA Framework combines them into a

single message box using the following rules:

Since an error is more important than a warning, the message box is titled “Er-

ror” if both errors and warnings exist.

Confirmations and errors cannot be shown together. In this case, the OA

Framework simply ignores the confirmation message(s).

You can, however, show confirmations with warnings. The message box is ti-

tled “Confirmation,” and it contains both types of messages.

Show the Exception Message on a Dialog Page

You can display an exception as a message in a dialog page using the APIs in the

oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OADialogPage class and

Contact Us: 002 – 010 900 160 23 002 – 0100 62 62 837

oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OAPageContext interface.

The OADialogPage class holds properties for the generic dialog page. To create a

dialog page object, first use the constructors to instantiate the basic properties, then use

the setter methods provided in the class to set additional properties.

To navigate (redirect) to a dialog page, use the OAPageContext.redirectToDialogPage

methods. The OAPageContext interface contains the context and state information

specific for a client request.01 // To Diaplay the Exception on a Dialog page

02 OAException message = new OAException("You cannot create a new change order when a Draft version already exits.");

03 OADialogPage dialogPage = new OADialogPage(OAException.ERROR, message, null,"",null);

04 05 dialogPage.setOkButtonToPost(true);06 dialogPage.setOkButtonLabel("Ok");

07 08 dialogPage.setPostToCallingPage(true);

09 java.util.Hashtable formParams = new java.util.Hashtable(1);10 dialogPage.setFormParameters(formParams);11 pageContext.redirectToDialogPage(dialogPage);

If you want 2 buttons (Say Cancel and Ok), then put “” instead of null in the

OADialogPage dialogPage = new OADialogPage line.

Deploying OAF Personalizations Using the Import/Ex-port Command Line Tools

After personalizing and testing framework pages in a Development instance, you may

wish to automate the transfer of these changes to another instance, rather than manu-

ally re-doing them all again. This objective can be achieved by exporting the personal-

izations from the Development instance, then importing them to a different instance or

You can either use the GUI interface in “Functional Administrator” (Personalization tab)

to transfer personalizations, or can invoke the XMLImporter/XMLExporter commands di-

rectly from the command line. The Export tool allows you to export a package or xml file

(along with translation information) from the MDS repository of a database instance to

a .xml file (or .xlf file for translations). The command line Export tool is necessary if you

wish to perform bulk translations of personalization documents.

This post provides the below detailed steps how to transfer personalizations from one in-

stance to others using the XMLImporter/XMLExporter tool.

1. Get Document Name

Go to the page you want to copy the personalization from and click the “about this Page”

link at the bottom of the page. You will see the page name with full path which starts

with /oracle/apps/<prod>.

Ex: /oracle/apps/icx/por/wf/webui/ReqLinesNotificationsRN

2. Get the Personalization Document info

Run the following command in TOAD or other tools as APPS user 1 set serveroutput on2 exec jdr_utils.listCustomizations('<full document name from step 1>');

Example:1 set serveroutput on

2 execjdr_utils.listCustomizations('/oracle/apps/icx/por/wf/webui/ReqLinesNotificationsRN');

Output:

anonymous block completed

/oracle/apps/icx/por/wf/webui/customizations/site/0/ReqLinesNotificationsRN

Note: If there are multiple records returned by this command, you will need to use ex-

port/import each item individually that you wish to export. You may also find there are

records returned for seeded personalizations provided by Oracle which do not need to

be exported.

3. Use XMLExporter to export personalization document

1 java oracle.jrad.tools.xml.exporter.XMLExporter <personalization document from step #2> \

2 -username "<username>" -password "<password>" \

3 -dbconnection "(description=(address_list=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=<host>)(port=<port)))(connect_data=(sid=<sid>)))" \

4 -rootdir "<output directory>"

Example:1 java oracle.jrad.tools.xml.exporter.XMLExporter \

2 /oracle/apps/icx/por/wf/webui/customizations/site/0/ReqLinesNotificationsRN -username apps -password w3lcome123 \

3-dbconnection "(description=(address_list=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=myhost)(port=12345)))(connect_data=(sid=dev)))" -rootdir "$XXSCM_TOP/install" \

Here one file named ReqLinesNotificationsRN.xml will be created in the below path:

XXSCM_TOP/install/oracle/apps/icx/por/wf/webui/customizations/site/0. Open the file

and you will able to view the personalizations that you have done.

4. Use XMLImporter to import personalization document

Run the below command in the Instance where you want to import your personalization.1 java oracle.jrad.tools.xml.importer.XMLImporter \2 <full path of the file you want to import> \3 -username "<username>" -password "<password>" \

4-dbconnection "(description=(address_list=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=<host>)(port=<port>)))(connect_data=(sid=<sid>)))" -rootdir "<top level directory>" \

5 -rootPackage "/oracle/apps/<prod>"

Example:1 java oracle.jrad.tools.xml.importer.XMLImporter \2 $XXSCM_TOP/install/ReqLinesNotificationsRN.xml \3 -username apps -password w3lcome123 \

4-dbconnection "(description=(address_list=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host= myhost)(port=12345)))(connect_data=(sid=dev)))" -rootdir "$XXSCM_TOP/install" \

5 -rootPackage "oracle/apps/icx/por/wf/server"
