How to execute SQL DML statements in Oracle ADF

Hi,

In some use cases it is required to execute just a simple DML (Insert, Update, Delete) statements in application.  so how to execute those in ADF? I will describe a one way to do this.

The steps are:

1. Create a method in Application Module (using DBTransaction and CallableStatement)
2. Expose that method to client interface
3. Drag and drop the method to your page
4. And optionally you can set the partial triggers and write a code to refresh your iterator bindings.

Here is the sample method in AppModuleImpl.java

  public int increaseSalary(int deptId, int increamentPercent) {
    
      DBTransaction trans = getDBTransaction();

      CallableStatement statement = null;
      int rows = 0;
      
      String plsql =
            " BEGIN " 
          + " UPDATE EMPLOYEES "
          + " SET SALARY = SALARY + (SALARY * ? / 100)"
          + " WHERE DEPARTMENT_ID = ?;"  
          + " END; ";
    
    
      statement = trans.createCallableStatement(plsql, 2);
      try {
          statement.setInt(1, increamentPercent);
          statement.setInt(2, deptId);
  
         rows = statement.executeUpdate();

      } catch (SQLException s) {
          throw new JboException(s);
      } finally {
          try {
              if (statement != null)
                  statement.close();
              return rows;
          } catch (SQLException s) { /* ignore */
          }
      }
  return rows;
  }

Performing logical delete in Oracle ADF

Hi,

In some use cases it is required not to physically delete the row from database but instead update a FLAG e.g delete_FLAG = 'Y'  to hide rows from user. So, if you are not familiar with the framework then you might take a long route to do the task which could easily be done by declarative steps.

In this post we will do the following.

1. We will add history columns in entities.
2. We will have a view criteria to display only DELETE_FLAG = 'N' rows.
3. On deletion in detail table we will delete logically.
4. We will update the History columns of Master entity as modified by and modified_date.

Avoiding JBO-26048 during commit in a master detail transaction

Hi,

You might face error JBO-26048 while performing COMMIT in a master detail transactions. This error occurs because by default your Association is not configured to perform optimized DMLs (Both Master and Detail same time) and you might see something similar.

(oracle.jbo.DMLConstraintException) JBO-26048:
Constraint "TAB_DET_TAB_MST_FK" is violated during post
operation "Insert" using SQL statement
"BEGIN INSERT INTO TAB_DET(DET_ID_SEQ,ID_SEQ,
DET_DESC,DELETE_FLAG) VALUES (:1,:2,:3,:4)
RETURNING DET_ID_SEQ INTO :5; END;".

You can simply avoid this checking the "Cascade update key attributes" and Composition Association in Association > Relationship
