The new version of Oracle ADF/JDeveloper 12.2.1.4 added a new UI component to ADF Faces called af:inputSearch. This component provides a new way to display and interact with list of values. One advantage it offers is that search for values in the list is done completely on the client - reducing network traffic between the client and the server. The component relies on a list of values it gets in a JSON format from a REST endpoint. You could use an ADF BC REST exposed list -...

Back in 2015 I wrote a blog entry to help our customers get a clear picture about the Oracle ADF vs Oracle JET "debate", over the years I kept pointing people to this writeup as a simple summary of what we are aiming to do and as a guideline for picking the technology you should use. However, the technology world is an ever changing place, and I believe that it is time to do a bit of an update of that entry to reflect the current status. While the basic distinctions between...

At Oracle OpenWorld this year I did a session about the future of Oracle ADF, and one of the demos I did there was showing the powerful combination of Oracle ADF backend with a new Oracle JET UI layer and how Oracle Visual Builder makes this integration very simple. While we have many happy Oracle ADF customers, we do hear from some of them about new UI requirements that might justify thinking about adopting a new UI architecture for some modules. These type of requirements...

The most popular blog entry on my blog has been the "How do I start Learning ADF" entry for years now. That entry however was last updated in 2012 (and written in 2010) - so I figured it is time to give it another update, point to more recent resources, fix broken links, and cover additional resources that appeared over the years. So here is the ADF 12c version of that blog entry updated for 2017: Get started with Oracle ADF in 6 steps Step 1 - Learn Basic Java Oracle ADF...

This blog entry is about a nice little new feature that was introduced into ADF in the 12.2.1.1 version, and didn't get a mention in the "what's new" document. Self dismissing messages are popping up everywhere these days (when you get an email, when you have a new calendar invite etc), and you might want to use this UI pattern in your ADF apps too. There is a new property for af:popup components - autoDismissalTimeout - that allow popups to automatically dismiss after a...

While building a demo of new Oracle ADF features for my OOW session, I came across some nice new functionality in the dvt status meter gauge component (dvt:statusMeterGauge), specifically the round one which has become quite popular in various Oracle Alta UIs. Turns out you can turn the dial and cut it so it shows just parts of a circle. By adding thresholds you can use it as a replacement for the dial gauge. Here is how it can look: Here is the code used: ...

[Update May 2017 - There are new features making the consumption of REST service easier - check out this blog entry about BOPs] One of the frequent requests we get when we demo ABCS is - can I invoke some external functionality that is exposed as a REST service and pass parameters to it. Well, with a minimal amount of JavaScript coding you can do it in the current version. I recorded the demo below that shows you how to do that. I'm leveraging a public REST API that github...

A few weeks ago, I set down with Bob from OTN for an interview that covered some of the key products our group works on. I covered the various frameworks (ADF, JET, MAF), what we are doing with cloud based development (DevCS) and our tools for citizen developers (ABCS). In case you are interested in any of these acronyms here is the video: Note that things move really fast at Oracle, and since this interview we already released a new version of Oracle JET and also made it...

When Oracle ADF Mobile was released over 3 years ago, one of the first blogs I created on this topic showed how to leverage Oracle ADF Business Components to access a server database and create a mobile front end on top of it. Since then both frameworks have matured, and we learned some best practices doing implementations internally and for customers. Today I'm going to show you a better way to build this type of applications, specifically leveraging REST as the...
