Traverse POJO based ADF treeTable, Get Child nodes of selected parent

Previosuly I have posted about populating af:treeTable programmatically and getting selected records from POJO based treeTable

This post is next in that series and here I am extending same sample application that show a tree of Seasons and it's characters
First we will see How to traverse a POJO based treeTable (Iterate through all nodes of treeTable)

Basic idea is to get treeTable Collection Model and iterate over it to get all nodes value, To get CollectionModel created treeTable component binding in managed bean

Get Selected records (Child/Parent) from POJO based ADF treeTable

Hello All
Previously I have posted about creating af:treeTable programmatically using POJO and this the next post in series

In this post I am talking about a very common requirement while using POJO based treeTable
How can we get selected records (child/parent) from POJO based treeTable ?

For this post I am extending same sample application, Till now we have seen that how can we create POJO based treeTable
Now we'll see that how to get it's selected records

Search on (Filtering) child nodes of af:treeTable using viewCriteria in Oracle ADF (11g,12c)

Hello all
this post is about filtering treeTable on basis of child nodes in Oracle ADF
in this tutorial i have used Departments and Employees table of HR schema to create treeTable
see how to create treeTable-
http://www.awasthiashish.com/2012/11/tree-table-component-in-oracle.html
http://www.awasthiashish.com/2013/08/tree-table-component-with-declarative.html

treeTable look like this-

now next is to search on Employee Names

• i have dropped a input text for search string and a button to search on page , here i am searching on first name of employees 





• now created a view Criteria in Employee viewObject to search on first name





• This viewCriteria doesn't work directly on Employee viewObject, to search in treeTable we have to override createViewLinkAccessorRS method in Departments (master vo) VOImpl class, and in this method we have to call Employees ViewCriteria explicitly , this will filter Employee Vo Rowset as per bind-variable value when a node is disclosed at runtime



    /**
     * @param associationDefImpl
     * @param viewObjectImpl
     * @param row
     * @param object
     * @return
     */
    protected ViewRowSetImpl createViewLinkAccessorRS(AssociationDefImpl associationDefImpl,
                                                      ViewObjectImpl viewObjectImpl, Row row, Object[] object) {


        ViewRowSetImpl viewRowSetImpl = super.createViewLinkAccessorRS(associationDefImpl, viewObjectImpl, row, object);

        String firstName = getFirstNm();
        ViewCriteriaManager vcm = viewObjectImpl.getViewCriteriaManager();
        ViewCriteria vc = vcm.getViewCriteria("EmployeesVOCriteria");
        VariableValueManager vvm = vc.ensureVariableManager();
        vvm.setVariableValue("BindFirstNm", firstName);
        viewObjectImpl.applyViewCriteria(vc);
        return viewRowSetImpl;


        // return super.createViewLinkAccessorRS(associationDefImpl, viewObjectImpl, row, object);
    }



• to pass bind-variable value i have created a variable and it's accessors in VoImpl and exposed set method to client that is further used by managed bean



    private String firstNm;
    public void setFirstNm(String firstNm) {
        this.firstNm = firstNm;
    }

    public String getFirstNm() {
        return firstNm;
    }



• now this setter method is called in managed bean search button action to set bind variable value



    /**Method to search in treeTable childs
     * @param actionEvent
     */
    public void searchAction(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
        if (firstNmBind.getValue() != null) {
            OperationBinding ob = executeOperation("setFirstNm");
            // firstNmBind is binding of inputText
            ob.getParamsMap().put("firstNm", firstNmBind.getValue().toString());
            ob.execute();
            /* Method Expand treeTable after Search see- 
             http://www.awasthiashish.com/2013/10/expand-and-collapse-aftreetable.html*/
            expandTreeTable();
            AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(treeTabBind);

        }
    }

Populate af:treeTable programatically using POJO in Oracle ADF (11g & 12c)

Hello All
This post is about creating & populating af:treeTable programmatically in ADF 11g and 12c
treeTable is basically a hierarchical representation of data, using ADF model layer we can create treeTable very easily by defining master-detail relation between viewObjects
see my previous posts on treeTable-
Tree Table Component in Oracle ADF(Hierarchical Representation)
Tree Table Component with declarative presentation in ADF, Access childs without custom selection listener
Expand and Collapse an af:treeTable programmatically in ADF Faces (Oracle ADF)
Refreshing Child Nodes of an af:treeTable / af:tree in Oracle ADF



to populate treeTable programmatically we need to configure data set that fits to tree hierarchy
thanks to Chris Muir's post about programmatic creation of treeTable
http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.in/2007/05/back-to-programming-programmatic-adf.html

there is 4-5 simple steps to do-

• Create a fusion web application and drop a af:treeTable on page , in treeTable creation wizard select "bind later" 





• now create managed bean to populate data in treeTable, create a simple List in managed bean of type POJO class (a java class that contains attributes and their accessor  )
• so in this app i am going to Tv Serial and respective character names in treeTable, for that i have created a class that contains POJO for treeTable



import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;


public class Seasons {
    public Seasons(String name) {
        this.name = name; // To Store Header Values (Storing Seasons Name :))
        characters = new ArrayList<Seasons>(); // To Store Detail Values (Storing Season's Charatcers)
    }

    public void setCharacters(List<Seasons> empDet) {
        this.characters = empDet;
    }

    public List<Seasons> getCharacters() {
        return characters;
    }
    private String name;
    private List<Seasons> characters;


    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
// This methods directly add characters value in list
    public void addEmp(Seasons employee) {
        characters.add(employee);
    }

}



• In this class the characters list behaves as child of seasons, so in managed bean define a top-level list (that contains both master and detail) and add values

See managed Bean Code-


import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

import org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.model.ChildPropertyTreeModel;

public class ProgrammaticTreeTabBean {
    List<Seasons> seasonList = new ArrayList<Seasons>();

    ChildPropertyTreeModel charatcerVal;

    public ProgrammaticTreeTabBean() {
        super();
        // Creating tree for Seasons and Characters details
        // Adding Master Values (seasons)
        Seasons season1 = new Seasons("Game of Thrones");
       // Adding Detail Values (Child Node-Characters)
        Seasons character = new Seasons("Tywin Lannister");
        season1.addCharaters(character);
        character = new Seasons("Tyrion Lannister");
        season1.addCharaters(character);
        character = new Seasons("Jaime Lannister");
        season1.addCharaters(character);
        character = new Seasons("Cersie Lannister");
        season1.addCharaters(character);
        character = new Seasons("Ned Stark");
        season1.addCharaters(character);

        // Adding Master Values (seasons)
        Seasons season2 = new Seasons("Arrow");
        // Adding Detail Values (Child Node-Characters)
        character = new Seasons("Oliver Queen");
        season2.addCharaters(character);
        character = new Seasons("Moira Queen");
        season2.addCharaters(character);
        character = new Seasons("Laurel Lance");
        season2.addCharaters(character);
        character = new Seasons("Sara Lance");
        season2.addCharaters(character);

        // Adding Master Values (seasons)
        Seasons season3 = new Seasons("Vikings");
      // Adding Detail Values (Child Node-Characters)
        character = new Seasons("Ragnar Lothrak");
        season3.addCharaters(character);

        // Adding all list to topList
        seasonList.add(season1);
        seasonList.add(season2);
        seasonList.add(season3);
        // Filtering Child Data, ChildPropertyTreeModel creates a TreeModel from a List of beans, see
        // https://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/trinidad-api/apidocs/org/apache/myfaces/trinidad/model/ChildPropertyTreeModel.html
        charatcerVal = new ChildPropertyTreeModel(seasonList, "characters");
    }

    public ChildPropertyTreeModel getCharatcerVal() {
        return charatcerVal;
    }
}



• Now code part is complete, now configure your treeTable to show data, see XML source of af:treeTable



<af:treeTable rowBandingInterval="0" id="tt1"
                              value="#{pageFlowScope.ProgrammaticTreeTabBean.charatcerVal}" var="node"
                              rowSelection="single" initiallyExpanded="true">
                    <f:facet name="nodeStamp">
                        <af:column headerText="Node Stamp" id="c1" width="250">
                            <af:outputText value="#{node.name}" id="ot1" inlineStyle="font-weight:bold;"/>
                        </af:column>
                    </f:facet>
                </af:treeTable>



• Now run your application and check , what you have done ;)

Refreshing Child Nodes of an af:treeTable / af:tree in Oracle ADF

Hello All,
A very common problem in ADF treeTable and tree is to refresh child nodes after any DML operation on tree.
to avoid this refresh problem developer can pragmatically refresh treeTable's child node.

• First get the master ViewObject on that treeTable is based
• if viewObject has any key attribute then filter it against a key for that you want to refresh child nodes
• if viewObject doesn't have any key attribute, then filter it using any unique key to get header(master) row
• get the rowset of child rows for that key, using viewlink accessor
• and execute query for Child Rows rowset
• see the refreshed child node :-)

Code- Using Key Attribute

// Get Master ViewObject
    ViewObjectImpl viewObj = masterViewObject;  
    // Filter It Using Key Attribute
  Row[] grpRow = vo.findByKey(new Key(new Object[] { keyAttribute Value }), 1);  
       // Get Child Rows using ViewLink Accessor
        if(grpRow.length>0){
        RowSet childRows = (RowSet)grpRow[0].getAttribute("viewLink AccessorName");  
  //Execute Child Rowset
        childRows.executeQuery();  
        }

Using Unique Key

      // Get Master ViewObject
    ViewObjectImpl viewObj = masterViewObject;  
    // Filter It Using Key Attribute
   Row[] grpRow=viewObj.getFilteredRows("uniqueKey", uniqueKey Value); 
       // Get Child Rows using ViewLink Accessor
        if(grpRow.length>0){
        RowSet childRows = (RowSet)grpRow[0].getAttribute("viewLink AccessorName");  
  //Execute Child Rowset
        childRows.executeQuery();  
        }

Tree Table Component in Oracle ADF(Hierarchical Representation)

Hello All

This post is about ADF Faces Tree Table component (about designing component and get selected value from tree table)

We have a simple sample application that shows how can we use tree table component in Oracle ADF.
Tree Table component represents  Hierarchical view of Master Deatil form of data
Here we take example from HR schema using Employees and Department table
Follow these steps -

• Create EOs,VOs of Employees and Department table in HR Schema and create association and viewlink between Department To Employees considering Department Id
• Now go to data control and select Department table and drop it on page as Tree table 

•  Now we have to edit its bindings, it means you have to select attributes that you want to display in page, and below Department table you should add Employees table using "add" button on top, and select appropriate Iterator in EL picker

• Now go to page and select treetable in Structure window of Jdeveloper and Go to its selection listener and copy default value

• And change selection listener set it to bean, click on edit and create new selection listener in Bean

•  Now go to Selection Listener and Use this code to get Value of selected node in treetable, if you will get value of node you can perform any operation on Tree Table

    public void treeTableSelectionListener(SelectionEvent selectionEvent) {
        String adfSelectionListener = "#{bindings.Department1.treeModel.makeCurrent}";

        FacesContext fctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        Application application = fctx.getApplication();
        ELContext elCtx = fctx.getELContext();
        ExpressionFactory exprFactory = application.getExpressionFactory();
        MethodExpression me = null;
        me =
 exprFactory.createMethodExpression(elCtx, adfSelectionListener, Object.class, new Class[] { SelectionEvent.class });
        me.invoke(elCtx, new Object[] { selectionEvent });
       
        RichTreeTable tree = (RichTreeTable)selectionEvent.getSource();
        TreeModel model = (TreeModel)tree.getValue();
        //get selected nodes
        RowKeySet rowKeySet = selectionEvent.getAddedSet();
        Iterator rksIterator = rowKeySet.iterator();
        while (rksIterator.hasNext()) {
            List key = (List)rksIterator.next();
            JUCtrlHierBinding treeBinding = null;
            treeBinding = (JUCtrlHierBinding)((CollectionModel)tree.getValue()).getWrappedData();
            JUCtrlHierNodeBinding nodeBinding = treeBinding.findNodeByKeyPath(key);
            Row rw = nodeBinding.getRow();
            System.out.println("row: " + rw.getAttribute(0)); // You can get any attribute
            System.out.println("View Object name---->" + nodeBinding.getViewObject().getName());

        }
    }

•  Now run your page and when you will click on any node you will find its value on Console---Cheers Happy Coding!
