Class DCControlBinding

java.lang.Object
  java.util.AbstractMap
      oracle.jbo.common.JboAbstractMap
          oracle.adf.model.binding.DCControlBinding

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.util.Map

Direct Known Subclasses:

JUControlBinding

public abstract class DCControlBinding

extends JboAbstractMap

The base class for all binding objects in the ADF framework that bind a View control/model to an object or an attribute of an object in a DataControl. This class manages:

• The references to the View control object.
• The IteratorBinding with which the binding object is in association
• The container binding that this binding belongs to
• The internal-state for findMode

This class also implements helper methods to access DataProvider objects like the DataProvider object itself, the current Application Module, the ViewObject or the DataProvider object that this control binding is working with, the current RowIterator, the current Row in the iterator that this control binding is associated with.

Constructor Detail

DCControlBinding

protected DCControlBinding()

DCControlBinding

public DCControlBinding(java.lang.Object control,
                        DCIteratorBinding iterBinding)

Constructor used in the framework to pass in the Swing control and the Iterator Binding with which this binding object works to get it's data.

Method Detail

addControlToPanel

public abstract void addControlToPanel(java.lang.Object panel,
                                       java.lang.Object layoutObject,
                                       java.lang.Object layoutCons)

getName

public final java.lang.String getName()

internalSetName

protected void internalSetName(java.lang.String name)

setName

public void setName(java.lang.String name)

getFullName

public final java.lang.String getFullName()

getDefName

public java.lang.String getDefName()

getDefFullName

public java.lang.String getDefFullName()

reportException

public void reportException(java.lang.Exception ex)

Report the given exception via the containing BindingContainer object.

getBindingContainer

public final DCBindingContainer getBindingContainer()

Returns the form binding object that this control binding is part of.

setBindingContainer

public void setBindingContainer(DCBindingContainer formBnd)

getDef

public final DCControlBindingDef getDef()

getDCIteratorBinding

public final DCIteratorBinding getDCIteratorBinding()

Returns the iterator binding with which this control binding is associated to get it's data.

getTransaction

public Transaction getTransaction()

Returns the Transaction object for the current BC4J session.

getApplicationModule

public ApplicationModule getApplicationModule()

Returns the Application Module to which this control's ViewObject belongs. Returns null in case of non-bc4j bound DataControls.

getViewObject

public ViewObject getViewObject()

Returns the ViewObject for which this control is displaying data. Returns null in case of non-bc4j bound data-controls.

getRowIterator

public RowIterator getRowIterator()

Returns the current RowIterator with which this control binding is working. This will return an instance of ViewCriteria object if the associated IteratorBinding is in find mode. Otherwise, it returns an instance of RowSetIterator.

executeQuery

public void executeQuery()

Calls DCIteratorBinding.executeQuery which in turn executes the query to repopulate the rows for the RowSet with which this control is working.

executeQueryIfNeeded

public void executeQueryIfNeeded()

Calls DCIteratorBinding.executeQueryIfNeeded which in turn executes the query to repopulate the rows for the RowSet with which this control is working, if it is not already executed.

getCurrentRow

public Row getCurrentRow()

Returns the current row for which this control is displaying data. In find mode, this will return an instance of ViewCriteriaRow, whereas in data mode it returns a Row object. This method should be used to get the current Row to which this control is bound in order to perform any validations on the control-value or data stored in the row.

getRowAtRangeIndex

public Row getRowAtRangeIndex(int rangeIndex)

Returns the row of given range index.

Parameters:

rangeIndex - range index of the row.

getAllRowsInRange

public Row[] getAllRowsInRange()

Returns the rows in current range in the RowIterator with which this control binding is working.

getControl

public java.lang.Object getControl()

Gets the associated View (Swing) control.

getControlModel

public java.lang.Object getControlModel(java.lang.Object control)

Gets the associated View's model object. By default return this binding object. If subclasses have their own View models that work with like say ButtonModel for JUButtonBinding, then return that.

This method is primarily for use by the generated binding calls so that it returns a proper 'typed' model object for that binding type and control combination.

setControl

public void setControl(java.lang.Object control)

Sets the associated Swing control.

getLayoutObject

public java.lang.Object getLayoutObject()

isControlQueriable

protected boolean isControlQueriable()

Returns true if this control can participate in find form. Note that some controls like ProgressBar cannot participate in a find form as they do no accept user inputs. By default this method returns false and it's up to the individual control bindings to determine whether they can participate in a find mode.

getError

protected JboException getError()

Primarily for spel support. Returns cached exception for some bindings.

Returns exception that occured on last setInputValue

getErrors

protected java.util.List getErrors()

Primarily for spel support. Returns cached exceptions for some bindings.

Returns a list of exceptions that occured on last setInputValue

processInputException

protected void processInputException(ValidationException vex)

resetInputState

protected abstract void resetInputState()

Resets any exceptions and client-side values that this binding may hold. This is used by control-bindings to reset their state before refreshing values from the MT.

refreshControl

public abstract void refreshControl()

Updates the values in a control that is bound using an Iterator already in use. (a valid row iterator) If you do not call this method, your control won't update unless you refresh the Iterator.

release

protected void release(int flags)

needsEstimatedRowCount

protected boolean needsEstimatedRowCount()

removeFromDCExceptions

protected void removeFromDCExceptions()

resetAttributeExceptionInRow

protected void resetAttributeExceptionInRow(Row row,
                                            AttributeDef def,
                                            AttrValException ave)

addToDCExceptions

protected void addToDCExceptions(JboException e)

get

public final java.lang.Object get(java.lang.Object keyObj)

Specified by:

get in interface java.util.Map

Overrides:

get in class JboAbstractMap

See Also:

for valid keyObj values

internalGet

protected java.lang.Object internalGet(java.lang.String key)

Subclasses should override this to handle a specific key. If they do find the key valid, they should also set the mInternalGet_KeyResolved to 'true' so that bean-introspection is not done for valid null-value returns from the internalGet() call.

Properties returned vis getter on this control bindings are:

def - returns getDef()

error - returns getError()

errors - returns getErrors()

fullName - returns getFullName()

name - returns getName()

currentRow - returns getCurrentRow()

iteratorBinding - returns getDCIteratorBinding()

rowKeyStr - returns String format of the current row's key

Overrides:

internalGet in class JboAbstractMap

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Specified by:

hashCode in interface java.util.Map

Overrides:

hashCode in class JboAbstractMap

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
