ADF Basics: Using setPropertyListener to set value in memory scope variables

Soemtimes we need to set a value in memory scope variable on some event
In ADF af:setPropertyListener does this for you declaratively

The setPropertyListener tag provides a declarative syntax for assigning values when an event fires. The setPropertyListener implements the listener interface for a variety of events, to indicate which event type it should listen for set the 'type' attribute.

Set EL expression in value (properties) of programmatically created ADF Faces component


When we are working with ADF Faces components programmatically then we  create , set styles,set value of that component from managed bean
This post is about setting an expression as component value that will be resolved at run time and return desired value

Set ADF Faces Component properties using custom javascript

This post is about using JavaScript in ADF Faces to change default properties , sometimes using JavaScript can make task easier and all scenarios covered in this post are based on very common requirement. One important point is - set clientComponent property of component to true when using JavaScript on that
Why this is important ? (Check what docs say)

whether a client-side component will be generated. A component may be generated whether or not this flag is set, but if client Javascript requires the component object, this must be set to true to guarantee the component's presence. Client component objects that are generated today by default may not be present in the future; setting this flag is the only way to guarantee a component's presence, and clients cannot rely on implicit behavior. However, there is a performance cost to setting this flag, so clients should avoid turning on client components unless absolutely necessary

Set panel group layout properties-


Use this JavaScript function to set panel group layout's layout and other properties

 <!--Function to set panelGroupLayout properties-->
              function changeGroupLayout(evt) {
                  var pgl = AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent('pgl1');
                  pgl.setProperty("layout", "vertical");
                  pgl.setProperty("inlineStyle", "background-color:red");
              }

I have called this function using client listener on a image that is inside my panel group layout

<af:panelGroupLayout id="pgl1" layout="horizontal" clientComponent="true">
                    <af:image source="#{resource['images:5-10.jpg']}" id="i1" inlineStyle="width:250px;height:200px;"/>
                    <af:image source="#{resource['images:13.jpg']}" id="i2" inlineStyle="width:250px;height:200px;">
                        <af:clientListener method="changeGroupLayout" type="dblClick"/>
                    </af:image>
                    <af:image source="#{resource['images:1.jpg']}" id="i3" inlineStyle="width:250px;height:200px;"/>
                </af:panelGroupLayout>

Initially group layout is horizontal-




After executing JavaScript on double click on second image-



Set input component property (inlineStyle, contentStyle, value etc)-


This function is same as previous one , this function sets value in input text , changes it's contentStyle

<!--Function to set af:inputText properties-->
              function changeInputText(evt) {
                  var iText = AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent('it1');
                  iText.setProperty("value", "Ashish Awasthi");
                  iText.setProperty("contentStyle", "background-color:red;color:white;font-weight:bold;");

              }

Called this function on double click event in inputText-

<af:inputText label="Label 1" id="it1" clientComponent="true" unsecure="disabled">
                        <af:clientListener method="changeInputText" type="dblClick"/>
              
                    </af:inputText>


Output is like this-
 on double click inside inputText

In same way we can set disabled property of component . It is a secure property of component , that should not be changed from a client side event normally but if this is a requirement then we have to set disabled in unsecure property of input component. Only disable property is supported as of now
Read more about this property -<af:inputText>


Set panelSplitter width according to browser window width-


This JavaScript function divides af:panelSplitter in equal parts to fit in browser

 <!--Function to set panel Splitter position-->
              function changePanelSpliterPosition(evt) {
                  var width = window.innerWidth;
                  var ps = AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent('ps1');
                  ps.setProperty("splitterPosition", width / 2);
              }

In same way try setting other properties of different components. Soon i will update this post with some more JavaScript functions and examples

Programmatically Select all values in ADF BC based selectMany (af:selectManyCheckbox, af:selectManyChoice, af:selectManyListbox, af:selectManyShuttle) component


Hello All,
Previously i have posted a lot about component that supports multiple selection in ADF Faces (af:selectManyCheckbox, af:selectManyChoice, af:selectManyListbox, af:selectManyShuttle)
- Multiple Selection in ADF Faces

This post is about selecting all values in a component programmatically on a event like button click, value change event etc.
Note that this post is designed for ADF BC (viewObject) based components , to set values in bean based component check this-
Programmatically populate values in ADF Faces multiSelect component (af:selectManyCheckbox, af:selectManyChoice, af:selectManyListbox, af:selectManyShuttle)



So for this i have just dropped Departments viewObject as multiSelect component on page
(af:selectManyCheckbox, af:selectManyChoice, af:selectManyListbox, af:selectManyShuttle)


 Page bindings section looks like this-


Now see code of Set all values as selected button-


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



    /**Method to set all values as selected in SelectMany Components.
     * @param actionEvent
     */
    public void setAllValuesToSelected(ActionEvent actionEvent) {

        int arrIndex[];
        //Get the iterator binding of component
        DCIteratorBinding deptIter = (DCIteratorBinding) getBindings().get("DepartmentsView1Iterator");
        //Get viewObject from Iterator
        ViewObject deptVo = deptIter.getViewObject();
        //Get component list binding , component is directly based on this
        JUCtrlListBinding list = (JUCtrlListBinding) getBindings().get("DepartmentsView1");
        DCIteratorBinding iterList = list.getDCIteratorBinding();
        RowSetIterator rsi = deptVo.createRowSetIterator(null);
        int i = 0;
        int rowCount = (int) deptVo.getEstimatedRowCount();
        //Initialize array and set it's size (equal to number of rows in List)
        arrIndex = new int[rowCount];
        while (rsi.hasNext()) {
            //Get viewObject next row from RowSetIterator
            Row nextRow = rsi.next();
            //Set this row as page iterator's current row
            iterList.setCurrentRowWithKey(nextRow.getKey().toStringFormat(true));
            //Now get index of this row
            int indx = iterList.getCurrentRowIndexInRange();
            //Add it to array
            arrIndex[i] = indx;
            i++;
        }
        rsi.closeRowSetIterator();
        // Set as selected indices
        list.setSelectedIndices(arrIndex);
    }


All done, now run and check application , click on button and see what happens ?


Great, it's working :)

Setting view object bind variable (Override bindParametersForCollection, prepareRowSetForQuery, executeQueryForCollection )

Hello All,
This post is about a very basic question- How to set bind variable of a view object ?
and there are multiple posts about it that describes multiple ways to do this
Using setNamedWhereClause
Using VariableValueManager 
Using setter method in VOImpl class

But Sometimes we can not assign bind variable value in declarative way for first time execution as value source for bind variable is fixed but it's value may change at runtime from n number of events



So for this type of requirement we can set bind variable's value in such a way so that we need not to write code everywhere to set changed value.
See how can we do this -

  • Create a Fusion Web Application and prepare model using Departments table of HR Schema




  • Open Departments viewObject add a bind variable in it's query , this bind variable is further used to set value and filter result set





  • Create Java class for Department view object, goto java tab of Departments VO and click on edit icon of Java Classes and select "Generate ViewObject Class"





  • Now we can set bind variable's value by overriding 3 methods of DepartmentVOImpl class

1. Overriding bindParametersForCollection in ViewObject java class -

This method is used to set bind variable's value by framework, framework supplies an array of all bind variable to this method We can override this method to set value of bind variable ,
Open DepartmentVOImpl class and click on override methods icon on top of editor
It will open a window that consist all methods , search by name and click on ok



See the code in DepartmentVOImpl-


    /**@override Method to set bind variable's value at runtime (Framework Internal Method)
     * @param queryCollection
     * @param object
     * @param preparedStatement
     * @throws SQLException
     */
    protected void bindParametersForCollection(QueryCollection queryCollection, Object[] object,
                                               PreparedStatement preparedStatement) throws SQLException {
        for (Object bindVar : object) {
            // Iterate over bind variable set and find specific bind variable
            if (((Object[])bindVar)[0].toString().equals("BindDeptId")) {
                // set the bind variable's  value
                ((Object[])bindVar)[1] = 100;

            }
        }
        super.bindParametersForCollection(queryCollection, object, preparedStatement);

    }

2. Overriding prepareRowSetForQuery in ViewObject java class -

This method (introduce in 11.1.1.5 release) executes before bindParametersForCollection , same thing can also be done in this method 
Override method in Impl class 


See the Code in DepartmentsVOImpl-


    /**@override Method to prepare RowSet for execution(Framework Internal Method)
     * @param viewRowSetImpl
     */
     public void prepareRowSetForQuery(ViewRowSetImpl viewRowSetImpl) {
        //Set Bind Variable's value 
        viewRowSetImpl.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("BindDeptId", 100);
        super.prepareRowSetForQuery(viewRowSetImpl);
    } 

3. Overriding executeQueryForCollection in ViewObject java class -


This method invokes just before framework executes rowset , avoid setting bind varibale in this method because it is not called before some methods as getEstimatedRowCount(), So whenever you try to get rowcount it will return wrong values 
still it works and sets the bind varible value and executes rowset, again override method



See the Code in DepartmentsVOImpl-


    /**Method to excute viewObject rowSet(Framework Internal Method)
     * @param object
     * @param object2
     * @param i
     */
    protected void executeQueryForCollection(Object object, Object[] object2, int i) {
        for (Object bindVar : object2) {
            // Iterate over bind variable set and find specific bind variable
            if (((Object[])bindVar)[0].toString().equals("BindDeptId")) {
                // Set the bind variable value
                ((Object[])bindVar)[1] = 100;

            }
        }
        super.executeQueryForCollection(object, object2, i);
    }

Now use anyone of these methods to set bind variable value and run application module, check result
It is showing data for DepartmentId 100.

Thanks, Happy Learning :)

Update page component in between of event processing in ADF Faces using JavaScript

This post is not about any specific topic of framework, recently i was working in an application, requirement was like this
There is a button on page that uploads a large file to server and it takes some time . So as soon as user press this button it's text should be changed to 'Processing..' and after upload is complete it should be 'Done'




In this post i am sharing same - How to update page component while an event is processing ?
First i have tried it using java means in same button action listener but in this case button text was changed only after event processing is complete
So for this purpose i have used some javascript function, this is quite simple (see the implementation)

  • Drop a button on page and create a ActionListener , it will change button text to 'Done' after event processing (used Thread.sleep() for some long processing)

  •     private RichButton buttonBind;
    
        /**Method to process Action Event
         * @param actionEvent
         */
        public void processValueAction(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
            // Sleep for some time (Event Processing time)
            try {
                Thread.sleep(10000);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            //After processing set button text to 'Done'
            buttonBind.setText("Done");
            AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(buttonBind);
        }
    
        public void setButtonBind(RichButton buttonBind) {
            this.buttonBind = buttonBind;
        }
    
        public RichButton getButtonBind() {
            return buttonBind;
        }
    

  • Now question is how to change button text to 'Processing..' immediately after clicking button. So for this purpose i am using javascript

  • function changeButtonText(event) {
                      var comp = event.getSource();
                      comp.setText('Processing..');
                  }
    

  • Calling this javascript function using af:clientListener in button like this (See XML source of page)

  •  <af:document title="UpdatePageComponent.jspx" id="d1">
                <af:resource type="javascript">
                  function changeButtonText(event) {
                      var comp = event.getSource();
                      comp.setText('Processing..');
                  }
                </af:resource>
                <af:form id="f1">
                    <af:spacer width="10" height="10" id="s1"/>
                    <af:panelGroupLayout id="pgl1" layout="horizontal" halign="center">
                        <af:panelBox id="pb1" showDisclosure="false">
                            <f:facet name="toolbar"/>
                            <af:button text="Click to process" id="b1"
                                       actionListener="#{viewScope.UpdatePageComponent.processValueAction}"
                                       clientComponent="true" binding="#{viewScope.UpdatePageComponent.buttonBind}"
                                       inlineStyle="width:250px;text-align:center;padding:5px;font-weight:bold;">
                                <af:clientListener method="changeButtonText" type="action"/>
                            </af:button>
                        </af:panelBox>
                    </af:panelGroupLayout>
                </af:form>
            </af:document>
    

  • As soon as button is clicked this javascript function will be invoked and set new text in button and after event processing button text is again set by managed bean actionListener.


  • After Clicking button (Event is processing)-

    Processing complete-

Set values in af:selectManyChoice programmatically - Oracle ADF

This post is about a very common question
How to set selected values in af:selectManyChoice component ?
Sometimes we need to set some values in selectManyChoice component on some action

In this post i am using Departments table of HR Schema to create selectManyChoice (Multiple Selection)
Just drag and drop Departments viewObject as ADF Select Many Choice
see- Using Multiple Selection (selectManyListbox & selectManyCheckbox component) in ADF


(Jdev Version- 12.1.3)
dropped a button on page and on this button action ,  setting values in component
See this simple managed bean code -




import java.util.ArrayList;

import javax.faces.event.ActionEvent;

import oracle.adf.view.rich.component.rich.input.RichSelectManyChoice;
import oracle.adf.view.rich.context.AdfFacesContext;

public class SetValueSmcBean {
    private RichSelectManyChoice selectMcBind;

    public SetValueSmcBean() {
    }

    /**Methos to set selected values in SelectManyChoice
     * @param actionEvent
     */
    public void setSelectedValuesAction(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
        ArrayList listVal = new ArrayList(20);
        //Add DepartmentId to list that you want to set as selected
        listVal.add(101);
        listVal.add(102);
        // Set this List as value using component binding
        selectMcBind.setValue(listVal.toArray());
        //Refresh Component on page (partial target)
        AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(selectMcBind);
    }

    public void setSelectMcBind(RichSelectManyChoice selectMcBind) {
        this.selectMcBind = selectMcBind;
    }

    public RichSelectManyChoice getSelectMcBind() {
        return selectMcBind;
    }
}

run application and check-

Invoke button action (ActionEvent) and value change listener using JavaScript- Oracle ADF

This is another post about using JavaScript in ADF Faces, So again nothing complicated just simple things but needed often
In this post i am covering two simple requirements , using Jdeveloper 11.1.2.4 (11g Release2)

1. How to call button action (ActionEvent) using JavaScript
2. How to call valueChangeListener of a component using JavaScript

 

Call button action using JavaScript-


So for this just drop a commandButton and an inputText on page and create a ActionListener in managed bean for button



Code in managed bean for ActionEvent-




    /**Action Listener for Button
     * @param actionEvent
     */
    public void buttonAction(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
        FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage("Button Action called");
        FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        context.addMessage(null, msg);
    }

Now requirement is to call this button action on double click event of mouse in inputText
To handle ActionEvent in JavaScript, framework provides a class AdfActionEvent , it has a method to queue ActionEvent from a component. So here i use same method to call ActionEvent

See JavaScript function-

function callButtonAction() {
                  //Method to get component using id (here button is top container)
                  var button = AdfPage.PAGE.findComponentByAbsoluteId('cb1');
                  //Method to queue ActionEvent from component
                  AdfActionEvent.queue(button, button.getPartialSubmit());
              }

and call it using af:clientListener under af:inputText-



Run page and check on double click of mouse in inputText-




Call ValueChangeListener using JavaScript-


This is also same as pervious one, created a valueChangeListener in managed bean for input text and requirement is to call this listener on mouse hover of button

Code in managed bean for ValueChangeListener-

    /**ValueChangeListener for inputText
     * @param valueChangeEvent
     */
    public void inputTextVCE(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent) {
        FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage("Value Change Lestener called");
        FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        context.addMessage(null, msg);
    }

There is a class to handle valueChange event using JavaScript - AdfValueChangeEvent
So this class also has a queue method , the difference is this queue method takes 4 parameters and also requires a value change event on component
So first step is to change (set) value of field using JavaScript and then queue valueChangeEvent

See JavaScript function-


 function callValueChangeEvent(evt) {
                  //Method to get component using id (here inputText is top container)
                  var field = AdfPage.PAGE.findComponentByAbsoluteId('it1');
                  //Change(set) field's value
                  field.setValue('I am JavaScript text');
                  //Get New changed value
                  var newVal = field.getValue();
                  //Queue ValueChangeEvent (component,oldValue,newValue,autoSubmit)
                  AdfValueChangeEvent.queue(field, null, newVal, false);

              }

make sure that clientComponent and autoSubmit property of inputText set to true
call this javascript fucntion from button using af:clientListener


Run page and check it-
Thanks, Happy Learning

Use View Link Accessor to call aggregate functions, set attribute value , set bind variables value (Oracle ADF)


Hello All

This post is about various usage of view link accessor  , when we create viewLink between two viewObjects , destination accessor is created by default in master viewObject, there is check box to create source accessor also at same time

We can use this view link accessor for calculating attribute's sum, setting value of attributes etc



here Departments is master viewObject and Employees is it's detail, after creating viewLink you can see in viewObject xml source there accessor is present

In Departments ViewObject- 




<ViewLinkAccessor
    Name="Employees"
    ViewLink="sample.model.view.link.DeptTOEmpVL"
    Type="oracle.jbo.RowIterator"
    IsUpdateable="false"/>

In EmployeesViewObject- 
 

<ViewLinkAccessor
    Name="Departments"
    ViewLink="sample.model.view.link.DeptTOEmpVL"
    Type="oracle.jbo.Row"
    Reversed="true"
    IsUpdateable="false"/>

So what is the use of these view link accessors ?
Master accessor in detail viewObject returns current Row of master viewObject, when you generate RowImpl class for detail viewObject , it also has a method for this accessor


    /**
     * Gets the associated <code>Row</code> using master-detail link Departments.
     */
    public Row getDepartments() {
        return (Row) getAttributeInternal(DEPARTMENTS);
    }

    /**
     * Sets the master-detail link Departments between this object and <code>value</code>.
     */
    public void setDepartments(Row value) {
        setAttributeInternal(DEPARTMENTS, value);
    }

Detail accessor in master viewObject returns a row set of all row of details viewObject that are currently referenced by master record

    /**
     * Gets the associated <code>RowIterator</code> using master-detail link Employees.
     */
    public RowIterator getEmployees() {
        return (RowIterator) getAttributeInternal(EMPLOYEES);
    }

Now see what we can do with viewLink Accessor

1. Get master attribute value in detail viewObject

suppose i have to get a attribute's value from Master viewObject (Departments) in a attribute of detail viewObject (Employee)
in this example i am getting managerId from Departments ViewObject so for this just write in expression of Employee's ManagerId field
viewLinkAccesorName.AttributeName


now run BC4J tester and check - create new record in Employee and see managerId from Departments is auto populated

 on creating new record-


2. Call aggregate function to calculate sum of an attribute of detail viewObject

suppose now i have to calculate total salary of a Department (sum of Employees salary of that department)
for this purpose just call sum function to calculate sum of all rows of detail RowSet 
take a transient attribute in Departments ViewObject and write in it's expression
viewLinkAccesorName.sum("AttributeName")


 Run ApplicationModule and see-


3. Set bind variable value as per master viewObject's attribute (pass value from master viewObject)

This  is tricky part as we can not set bind variable value through expression as it doesn't recognize view link accessor name.
created a viewCriteria and bind variable for managerId in Employee viewObject




applied this criteria to Employees viewObject instance in Application Module (Just Shuttle criteria to selected side)


now to set bind variable's value we have to override prepareRowSetForQuery method in Employees VOImpl class

this method gets the value of managerId from currentRow of master ViewObject (Departments)and sets in bind variable of Employees viewObject


    @Override
    public void prepareRowSetForQuery(ViewRowSetImpl viewRowSetImpl) {
        RowSetIterator[] masterRows = viewRowSetImpl.getMasterRowSetIterators();
        if (masterRows != null && masterRows.length > 0 && masterRows[0].getCurrentRow() != null &&
            masterRows[0].getCurrentRow().getAttribute("ManagerId") != null) {
            Integer managerId = (Integer) masterRows[0].getCurrentRow().getAttribute("ManagerId");
            viewRowSetImpl.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("BindManagerId", managerId);
            System.out.println("ManagerID in bind Var-" + managerId);

        }
        super.prepareRowSetForQuery(viewRowSetImpl);
    }

now run AM and check it-

Overriding Reset button action (QueryOperationListener) of af:query, Changing query mode, Handling QueryOperationEvent programmatically-Oracle ADF

Hello All ,
previously i had a requirement of validating af:query fields so i have found two ways to do that
see -Overriding default query listener ,field validation of af:query- Oracle ADF

now i have to set some values in af:query when user clicks on Reset button of query so to do that i have to override default QueryOperationListener in order to handle QueryOperationEvent  



Oracle docs says-

af:query- The query component provides the user the ability to perform a query based on a saved search or personalize saved searches in Oracle ADF. The component displays a search panel with various elements, each of which help the user to accomplish various tasks. 

QueryOperationListener- QueryOperationListener class. A registered queryOperationListener is invoked when the user's action results a queue and broadcast of QueryOpertionEvent on the component. For example, click the delete icon in the QuickCriteria component or click "Save", "Reset" etc buttons in Query component to perform a Query Operation.

 QueryOperationEvent-A user can perform various operations on saved searches while interacting with a query component. These actions include creating, overriding, deleting, duplicating, selecting, resetting and updating a saved search

want to read more-  
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/apirefs.1111/e10684/oracle/adf/view/rich/event/QueryOperationListener.html
http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/docs/apidocs/oracle/adf/view/rich/event/QueryOperationEvent.html  

so i have created a QueryOperationListener in managed bean that communicates with QueryOperationEvent

in this method we can capture various events of af:query as reset,update
so for this use-case i have to capture reset and set desired values in query attribute (viewObject's bind variable) , here i am using Departments table of HR Schema



now see the code (i have to set Human Resource department on reset in search panel) - how to capture raised event when user clicks on Reset button of af:query


    /**Custom QueryOperationListener that hadles variois events raised by af:query
     * @param queryOperationEvent
     */
    public void deptSeacrhQueryOperationList(QueryOperationEvent queryOperationEvent) {
        //Invoke default operation listener
        invokeEL("#{bindings.DepartmentsVOCriteriaQuery.processQueryOperation}", Object.class,
                 QueryOperationEvent.class, queryOperationEvent);

        System.out.println("Query Event is-" + queryOperationEvent.getOperation().name());
        //Check that current operation is RESET
        if (queryOperationEvent.getOperation().name().equalsIgnoreCase("RESET")) {
            DCIteratorBinding iter = (DCIteratorBinding) getBindings().get("Departments1Iterator");

            ViewObjectImpl vo = (ViewObjectImpl) iter.getViewObject();
            // Setting the value of bind variable
            vo.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("BindDeptNm", "Human Resource");
        }
    }

to invoke Expression use this method


    /**
     * @param expr
     * @param returnType
     * @param argTypes
     * @param args
     * @return
     */
    public Object invokeMethodExpression(String expr, Class returnType, Class[] argTypes, Object[] args) {
        FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        ELContext elctx = fc.getELContext();
        ExpressionFactory elFactory = fc.getApplication().getExpressionFactory();
        MethodExpression methodExpr = elFactory.createMethodExpression(elctx, expr, returnType, argTypes);
        return methodExpr.invoke(elctx, args);
    }

    /**
     * @param expr
     * @param returnType
     * @param argType
     * @param argument
     * @return
     */
    public Object invokeEL(String expr, Class returnType, Class argType, Object argument) {
        return invokeMethodExpression(expr, returnType, new Class[] { argType }, new Object[] { argument });
    }

now run this page and check on click of reset button this listener is invoked and sets the value of af:query field
Default page view -on-load


 after click on Reset-


other than this reset we can handle other events of af:query (for saved search there are various events based on corresponding operations) as DELETE, UPDATE, CREATE


on clicking various button of this personalized search box we get respective operation  name in managed bean and can handle as  done for RESET operation

Changing mode of default search panel (af:query) of ADF-
this is nothing but  2 lines that changes the mode of af:query - Basic to Advanced & Advanced to Basic

so dropped a button on page to change af:query search mode and see the code of ActionListener for this


//Binding of af:query in managed bean  
  private RichQuery queryPanelDept;
    
    public void setQueryPanelDept(RichQuery queryPanelDept) {
        this.queryPanelDept = queryPanelDept;
    }
    public RichQuery getQueryPanelDept() {
        return queryPanelDept;
    }


    private String current_mode = "B";

    /**Method Action to change mode of af:query
     * @param actionEvent
     */
    public void changeModeAction(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
        if (current_mode == "B") {
            getQueryPanelDept().getValue().changeMode(QueryDescriptor.QueryMode.ADVANCED);
            current_mode = "A";
        } else if (current_mode == "A") {
            getQueryPanelDept().getValue().changeMode(QueryDescriptor.QueryMode.BASIC);
            current_mode = "B";
        }
    }

now run page and see-
