Using Multiple Selection (selectManyListbox & selectManyCheckbox component) in ADF

Hello All ,
This tutorial is based on use of selectManyListbox & selectManyCheckbox component in ADF to enable multiple selection.
Both component are same in functionality only somewhat different in look-feel.



Follow steps to use these component -



  • Create a fusion web application and create business components for Departments table of HR Schema

  • Now create a page and drop Departments Vo from data control on page as multiple selection (checkbox or listbox) 




  • Now binding for this component is created in page-bindings, add a button on page to get total selected values


  • See how to get selected values in managed bean, JUCtrlListBinding is used to get selected values

  • import javax.faces.event.ActionEvent;
    
    import oracle.adf.model.BindingContext;
    
    import oracle.binding.BindingContainer;
    
    import oracle.jbo.uicli.binding.JUCtrlListBinding;   
    
     public BindingContainer getBindings() {
            return BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
        }
    
        public void getSelectedValue(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
    
            JUCtrlListBinding listBindings = (JUCtrlListBinding)getBindings().get("DepartmentsView1");
            Object str[] = listBindings.getSelectedValues();
            for (int i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
                System.out.println(str[i]);
            }
        }
    

  • this method works for both listbox and checkbox, i have added all selected departments in a FacesMessage and displayed on page

 Select All-


And Check-box component look like this-


Complete code written on 'Get Selected Values' button-


    /**Method to get BindingContainer of page
     * @return
     */
    public BindingContainer getBindings() {
        return BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
    }

    /**Method to get Selected Values
     * @param actionEvent
     */
    public void getSelectedValue(ActionEvent actionEvent) {

        JUCtrlListBinding listBindings = (JUCtrlListBinding)getBindings().get("DepartmentsView1");
        Object str[] = listBindings.getSelectedValues();
        StringBuilder saveMsg =
            new StringBuilder("<html><body><b><p style='color:red'>Selected Departments are-</p></b>");

        saveMsg.append("<ul>");
        for (int i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
            System.out.println(str[i]);
            saveMsg.append("<li> <b>" + str[i].toString() + "</b></li>");
        }

        saveMsg.append("</ul><br>");
        saveMsg.append("</body></html>");
        FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage(saveMsg.toString());
        FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, msg);

    }

Importance of BC4J temp tables(PS_TXN & PS_TXN_SEQ) and Persistent Collections Facility in Oracle ADF





Recently i have seen a new exception in my production environment while 7 users working on deployed application

And i was not able understand why this exception occurs, i googled about it and found some very interesting facts about BC4J.

BC4J creates temporary database object (PS_TXN and PS_TXN_SEQ), that are used by ADF to maintain state of user session as per DB, it has facility to store temporary data in BLOB column to avoid out of memory problem.
visit this link to read about these objects- (How to manage PS_TXN and PS_TXN_SEQ)
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/overview/bc4j-temp-tables-087270.html#ID34

now i have seen cascading exception after this  oracle.jbo.PcollException, PColl refers persistent collection facility.
when ADF was unable to insert data in PS_TXN table, java.sql.SQLException occurs, connection forcefully closed


Caused by: oracle.jbo.JboException: JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: java.sql.SQLException, msg=Connection has already been closed.

  • Now i have counted rows in PS_TXN , there was more 3000 rows, have cleared all rows



  • after this again 7 users worked for 3hrs and there was no exception, no bizarre behaviour
  • Now once connection is closed, ADF errors starts coming out as NullPointerException

  • javax.faces.el.EvaluationException: java.lang.NullPointerException

  • Finally what i come to know that in order to avoid this kind of exceptions , we have to schedule a job to clear data in PS_TXN

What PS_TXN stores-

  • PS_TXN structure- 
     
  • Suppose you have a search query with more that 10000 records and that is on page as af:table, when user scrolls through table to view records then to avoid out of memory problem bc4j stores extra result set in a temporary storage (PS_TXN) in BLOB column
  • When AM (Application Module) passivates and in AM pooling dofailover is set to true,pending state and changes are stored in this table

  • <AM-Pooling jbo.dofailover="true"/> 
     

  • In case of Multiple users , session information stored in PS_TXN, each user session must be serialised with database, otherwise database object can't behave as per separate user session
  • to test a scenario , i have deleted all data from PS_TXN in default HR Schema and created a ADF application  that makes uses of HR's tables

  • Run that application , till few operations on application there was no data in PS_TXN table , when i opened application in 3 browser's window and then performed some operations after this there was 2 rows in PS_TXN, it means ADF automatically insert data in PS_TXN for state,session,AM Changes. developer need not to worry about it

At-last summary is - Always keep in mind these db objects if you are facing unexpected behaviour of ADF application in production (multi user) environment, if your application working perfectly on development environment but not in production always check it and schedule a job to clear table PS_TXN
