This post is about a specific requirement that is to hide some values from adf based select one choice from UI
Previously I have posted about disabling some items from select one choice and this post uses same steps to hide values from lov

Create ADF Choice List and apply selectItems to it programmatically

I hope we all know how to create selectOneChoice using Model layer and previously I have posted about populating selectOneChoice programmatically from bean using ArrayList

Programmatically populate values in a af:selectOneChoice component in ADF

But this post is slight different - It is about creating selectOneChoice component and applying selectItems to it programmatically
There is nothing complicated in this , Just a piece of code is required
Here I have used an ArrayList to set SelectItems and created component binding for af:form to add selectOneChoice as it's child 

Dynamically enable or disable items of ADF bound List (af:selectOneChoice) -Oracle ADF

Hello All,
This tutorial is about a requirement of conditionally enabling/disabling items (values) of adf bound List (af:selectOneChoice) component
here i am taking reference of default HR Schema (Departments and Location table )

See the steps-

• Create a Fusion Web Application and business components using both tables

•  Now create List of Values (Lov) on locationId of departments VO from Location VO

• Set List Attribute to LocationId and for UI city will be shown

• Now Drag Departments VO from Data Control on page as a form

•  Select LocationId list field and delete f:selectItems from it, now drag af:selectItem as child of af:selectOneChoice and surround it with af:forEach 

• Add tree binding of Location ViewObject to page bindings in order to populate list items using forEach

•  Now select af:forEach and set its property and variable name, as we have to iterate through Location VO for list items

•  Again select af:selectItem and set its value and label property using forEach variable's  

• Now run your application, and see that list box is ready with values

• Now we have to disable its values as a condition basis, i have written an Expression on af:selectItem's disabled property
  
  
  
  


• I have written condition for DepartmentId 100 and 110, see in source of page



<af:selectOneChoice value="#{bindings.LocationId.inputValue}" label="#{bindings.LocationId.label}"
                                        required="#{bindings.LocationId.hints.mandatory}"
                                        shortDesc="#{bindings.LocationId.hints.tooltip}" id="soc1"
                                        contentStyle="width:150px;color:red;">
                        <af:forEach items="#{bindings.Locations1.rangeSet}" var="list">
                            <af:selectItem label="#{list.City}" id="si1" value="#{list.LocationId}"
                                           disabled="#{ (bindings.DepartmentId.inputValue==100 and (list.LocationId==1000 || list.LocationId==1300)) || (bindings.DepartmentId.inputValue==110 and (list.LocationId==1500 || list.LocationId==1600 || list.LocationId==1700 || list.LocationId==1800 || list.LocationId==1900))}"/>
                        </af:forEach>
                    </af:selectOneChoice>



• Now value given in Expression for Location Id will be disabled for given Department
• Run your page and select DepartmentId 100 and 110 to see disabled list items
