Consider, based a condition you need to create an list of values in OAF, like, show the list of employees / show list of just employee numbers w.r.t the Organization selected by the user. In such cases one may think of creating the LOV dynamically. The below mentioned steps describe the process of creating the same.

Requirement: To create LOV (List of values) item dynamically in OAF

Step 1: Create a new OA workspace and OA project

Create a OA workspace with file name as: CreateLov

Create a OA project with file name as: CreateLov

Default package: oaf.oracle.apps.fnd.lov

Once your project is created, double click on CreateLov project and select Project content.

Click on 'Add' button next to the bottom pane in the Project content and select only that package which you want have in your project.

Click OK and save your project. 

 Step 2: Create a ADF Business component - Application Module AM

Right click on CreateLov project -> click New -> select ADF Business components -> select Application Module

Package: oaf.oracle.apps.fnd.lov.server

AM Name: LovAM

Check Application Module Class: LovAMImpl Generate Java File(s)

Step 3: Create a OA Components page

Right click on CreateLov project -> click New -> select OA components under Web Tier -> select Page

Package: oaf.oracle.apps.fnd.lov.webui

Page Name: LovPG

 

Step 4: Set Page properties

Select on the LovPG page and go to structure pane where a region of type 'pageLayout' and ID 'region1' is automatically created.

Click on region1 in structure page and set the project properties as in the below screenshot - set all the properties except the controller class, for now.

Step 5: Set new Controller

Select PageLayoutRN in the structure pane -> Right click on it -> Set new controller

Package: oaf.oracle.apps.fnd.lov.webui

Controller name: LovCO

-- This automatically sets the controller class property in LovPG page properties

Step 6: Create a ADF Business component - View Object

Right click on CreateLov project -> click New -> select ADF Business components -> select View Object

Package: oaf.oracle.apps.fnd.lov.server

VO Name: LovVO

Keep click 'Next' until you land at step-5(SQL Statement) of VO creation.

Paste the following SQL statement in the 'Query Statement' block as in the below screenshot:

SELECT employee_number, full_name, national_identifier, email_address FROM per_all_people_f

Ensure all the above mentioned column names comes up in the attributes step in VO creation

 

In step-8(Java) of VO creation uncheck all the pre-selected checkboxes and select View Row Class: ViewObjRowImpl -> Generate Java File -> Accessors check box Accept all other defaults in VO creation, click Finish to create the VO under the package specified.

Step 7: Attach VO to AM

After creating VO successfully, we must associate this VO with AM we have created

Right click on LovAM -> Edit LovAM

Select 'Data Model' on the window that pops up

You should find LovVO listed in the left panel, Shuttle the LovVO to the right pane to associate it with the LovAM which is displayed as LovVO1 as in the below screenshot

Click on Apply and OK to save the changes made to LovAM

 

Step 8: Create ListOfValues Region list in LovPG

Right click on CreateLov project -> click New -> select OA components under Web Tier -> select Region

Package: oaf.oracle.apps.fnd.lov.webui

Page Name: LovRN

Next right click on LovRN -> Select table using Wizard..

On the wizard that pops up click Next.

-> On step 1 of this wizard select the applciation module as oaf.oracle.apps.fnd.lov.server.LovAM and then select LovVO1 from the available view usages pane, click Next

-> accept the default settings

-> In the step 3 (view attributes) of the wizard select and shuttle EmployeeNumber and FullName attributes to the right

-> Click Next and finish the wizard which creates a table as in the listOfValues region

Now, select the FullName  attribute from the table created and set its properties as follows:

 

FullName properties create lov article3 apps2fusion

Step 9: Create LOV item dynamically in LovPG

Add the code in the following Process Request Function in your LovCO

 

OAMessageLovInputBean full_name = (OAMessageLovInputBean)pageContext.getWebBeanFactory().createWebBean(pageContext, LOV_TEXT, null, "fullname");

//fullname kind of an identifier to full_name object

webBean.addIndexedChild(full_name);

full_name.setAttributeValue(REGION_CODE,"/oaf/oracle/apps/fnd/lov/webui/LovRN");

full_name.setAttributeValue(REGION_APPLICATION_ID, new Integer(20001));

full_name.setLovRegion("/oaf/oracle/apps/fnd/lov/webui/LovRN", 0);

full_name.setUnvalidated(false);

full_name.addLovRelations(pageContext, "fullname", "FullName", LOV_RESULT, LOV_REQUIRED_NO);

// FullName is the ID of FullName attribute in LovRN

full_name.addLovRelations(pageContext, "fullname", "FullName", LOV_CRITERIA, LOV_REQUIRED_NO);

 

Result:

On page load & 

Open the search popup window and click on 'Go' button:

Lov filters by fullname create lov article3 apps2fusion

 

Now in the above screenshot you can see that you have both employee number and full name being shown up according to table created in LovRN. Now select the third entry - A Bakker - and see what gets loaded onto the Lov item created dynamically - the full name should get loaded as we have made FullName as LOV_CRITERIA and in LovCO.

is not it considered a bad practice to create any component dynamically from CO and attach that into webean? instead we can use SPEl
