We are happy to announce the release of Oracle MAF 2.1.1.

This release adds a couple of new features and includes bug fixes – for the full details see the Oracle MAF documentation page.

One key new feature in this release is support for local notifications.

Oracle MAF local notifications originate within the MAF application and are received by the same application. The notifications are delivered to the end user through standard mechanisms supported by the mobile device platform (for example, banner, sound) and can work when the application is either in the foreground, background or not running at all. 

Focusing on simplifying development, you can schedule, receive and cancel local notification through the declarative device feature data control palette, as well as through Java and JavaScript APIs. More here.

You can get the new Oracle MAF 2.1.1 extension through the help->check for updates in JDeveloper.
