How to get a value form the resource bundle file in ADF

Hi
So many times we need to show message to the users. The problem is that we do not want to pass the message text as hard coded. We sometimes need to read this message from the resource bundle.
In this discussion , I will show how to achieve this task within both the ViewController and Model project.

1- How to achieve this in the ViewController Project.

The following method accepts a String parameter which is the KEY and return the text for this key in the resource bundle.
String resourceBundle is variable represents the class name of the resource bundle file.
In order to now the resource bundle for the project , Just go to the project property,Resource Bundle




/** * added by tarek fathy
 * oct 02 2012
 * use this method to return a value from the ViewControllerBundle file
 * just pass the key
 * @param identifier
 * @return String
 * this method will work only if the recource bundle is org.dhaman.es.view.ViewControllerBundle
 */
 public static String getStringFromResourceBundle(String identifier){
 String resourceBundle= "org.dhaman.es.view.ViewControllerBundle";
 FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
 Locale locale = facesContext.getViewRoot().getLocale();
 ResourceBundle bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle(resourceBundle, locale);
 return bundle.getString(identifier);
 }

the above method helps you to return a string value from the resourde bundle
example: 

FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); context.addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR, JSFUtils.getStringFromResourceBundle("INVALID_LOGIN_MSG"),
null));


2- How to achieve this in the Model Project.

You can write the following method in the EntityImpl or ViewImple or ApplicationModuleImp class.




public String getLocalizedValue(String key) {
ResourceBundleDef resourceDef = this.getResourceBundleDef();
Locale locale = this.getDBTransaction().getSession().getLocale();
String retVal =
StringManager.getLocalizedStringFromResourceDef(resourceDef, key,null, locale, null,false);
return retVal;
} 

Just make sure that the resource bundle exist.
you can easily call this method using groovy
adf.object.getLocalizedValue("DEFULT_DEPT_NAME")

Another user has changed the row with primary key oracle.jbo.Key[12 ].

Try these solutions:  make sure that you check "refresh after insert" and refresh after update" for the primary key column in you entity object. in the application module tab Click the Properties tab and select jbo.locking.mode. Double click the “pessimistic”value next to the property to open the field editor and type “optimistic” over the value.Press enter. if error still exist then you must set "refresh after insert" and refresh after update" as true for all attributes in the entity object another way is to execute the View Object after the commit operation to bring back updated data to ViewObject. For this we need to override the  afterCommit()  of ViewObject class as follows:                  public void afterCommit(TransactionEvent){                         executeQuery();                       }              5- another way to solve this error is to overide the lock() method of the EntityImpl class       public void lock() {

Working With File Throgh WebUtill

-------------------------------------------------- Required Configuraion : By default the file transfer is disabled in webutil for a security measure. So, you have to enable File transfer configuration in webutil.cfg file. The webutil.cfg file is located in  forms\server. Open The webuil.cfg file and edit the following parameters : transfer.database.enabled=FALSE   Change To TRUE transfer.appsrv.enabled=FALSE       Change to TRUE WebUtil_File contains APIs to manipulate files and directories on the client. These Functions Or APIs are: Copy_File :  Copies a file Returns a Boolean to indicate success.  Syntax :   Webutil_File.Copy_File(SourceFileName in Varchar2 , Destination In Varchar2) Return Boolean  Example   Declare  vCopied Boolean;  Begin   vCopied :=  Webutil_File.Copy_File('C:\temp\mypic.jpg','X:\destination_folder');  If vCopied = true Then    Message('File copied Successfully');  Else   Message('Error in Copying File');  End if; Delete_File:
