Allow user input in Jdeveloper for Java applications, Using Java Scanner Class to take input from console

Sometimes we have to take input from Keyboard when we use Scanner or BufferedReader class.
and to take input from Jdeveloper we have to change a setting to allow user input in Jdeveloper.

Let's take an example of java.util.Scanner class-

package client;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class UserInput {
    public UserInput() {
        super();
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Please Enter your Name-");
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        String name = sc.next();
        System.out.println("Your Name is " + name);
    }

}

Using popupFetchListener to execute method on popup launch in Oracle ADF

Everyone must have used ADF Faces popup component , this is one of most used container to show information on top of page
In this post i am talking about popup fetch event suppose we have to perform some operation before opening popup like filtering data inside popup . We can do this by capturing popup fetch event, if you have checked af:popUp documentation then you must have seen concept of popupFetchListener

From Docs-
The PopupFetchEvent is one of two server-side popup events but doesn't have a corresponding client event. The popup fetch event is invoked during content delivery. This means that the event will only queue for popups that have a contentDelivery type of lazy or lazyUncached. Another caveat is that the event will only work when the launch id is set. This is automatically handled by the af:showPopupBehavior but must be provided as a popup hint if programmatically shown.

So here we will see -

How to use popupFetchListener to filter data inside popup ?
How to execute some operation before opening popup ?
How to call AMImpl method before launching popup?

ADF Basics: Call PL/SQL Stored function in ADF Application

This post is about calling stored function in ADF Application , a very basic requirement. Many times we need to call a PL/SQL function in ADF app for any specific requirement.
In this post i am discussing same so for that i have created a PL/SQL function that takes EmployeeId as input parameter and return it's Employees Name (Using Oracle HR Schema)

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION FN_GET_EMPNAME(EMP_NO NUMBER)
RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
   EMP_NAME VARCHAR2(50) := 'N';
BEGIN
   SELECT FIRST_NAME||' '||LAST_NAME into EMP_NAME
   FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE EMPLOYEE_ID=EMP_NO;
   
   RETURN EMP_NAME;
END;
