Every view object instance added to ADF AM data model appears in the Data Controls panel. The attributes in the view object will also be displayed under the corresponding data control view object . Along with it, there are many Built-in view object operations available .Lets see each one of them with an example.
Data Control View object operations
you can drag and drop operations on to the UI page as a ADF Link /ADF Button and with the available options .
Drag and Drop the Employee Data control on to the UI page as ADF Table .
I have quite a big story to explain and how did i understood this . I have dragged and dropped EmpVO1(Employee VO data control ) on to the page as ADF Table and as ADF Form . I have also dragged and dropped Create and CreateInsert operations as ADF Link . See the below image
Create will creates a new row but does not insert it . But what does it mean , it creates but does not insert ?
Yes.... Create will just open a slot . Row will be initialized. But it does not insert a row .
see this code :
vo.insertRow(row); // This is how insertion happens . In the case of Create , this will not be invoked
Create will just initialize a row whereas CreateInsert initialize the row as well as insert row. Look at the image , when we click CreateInsert a new blank row is being created and displayed in the ADF table as well as in ADF Form. CreateInsert will work in ADF Form component and ADF Table
Create will work only on ADF Form component.
When we click Create , new row added being displayed ADF Form component and not to ADF Table
OK.. we can directly use CreateInsert instead of Create. why confuse? There are situations we need to bulk insert or selective insert based on the user choice .
Remember operation carried by 'Create' is not part of transaction so need not to be roll backed when don't want commit the new rows . when a row is marked as initialized it will be removed from Transaction pending changes.The new row which is initialized with any default values that the underlying EO has defined. If the user never enters any data , then it means no row is being created logically. .no worries during commit time
Just to check this, write a custom method and bind it to the both the links. Look at the snippet .
<af:commandLink actionListener="#{backingBeanScope.DCOperations.onCreate}" text="Create"
disabled="#{!bindings.Create.enabled}" id="cl1"/>
<af:commandLink actionListener="#{backingBeanScope.DCOperations.onCreateIns}"
text="CreateInsert"
disabled="#{!bindings.CreateInsert.enabled}" id="cl2"/>
I have made action listener of both the links pointing to a custom method .
After clicking the Create link in the UI when u check the output row count before and after will be the same. But in CreateInsert , row count will not be same and it will be +1 always compare to the before row count because it has already inserted a row in the iterator.
When u want to remove a row once CreateInsert is made , u need to rollback and careful what you are removing because CreateInsert operation is part of transaction.
Finally the difference between Create and CreateInsert is : User can just navigate away from the page without worrying about the created row in Create operation. User has to justify the created row because it is already inserted in the iterator and a part of transaction too.. Another important case is , difference between two really matters if it is ADF Table.
2) Create with Parameters :
It creates a new row accepting parameter values.
3) First,Last,Next :
Sets the current row to the First,Last,Next row in the rowset.
4) Next and Previous Set :
Sets the set of rows forward to one set and backwards (i.e) previous.
