Data Binding

Oracle ADF provides a consistent drag-and-drop data binding experience for many different server-side technologies, including ADF Business Components, TopLink, EJBs, web services, and Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs).

Data Control Palette

 

Client developers use the Data Control Palette to create databound HTML elements (for JSP pages), Oracle ADF UIX elements (for UIX XML pages), and Swing UI components (for JClient panels).

In addition, developers who use TopLink as the persistence architecture for their custom Java classes can leverage the common data binding features in the ADF Model layer to simplify building JSP, UIX XML, and Swing application user interfaces.

Visually, the palette comprises two parts:

  • The top portion of the window, which displays available business services. The list represents model objects, including data collections, attributes, and actions that the business services developer exposed to the client application through a data control definition file.

  • The bottom portion of the window, which displays a dropdown list of UI components. The list represents binding types suitable for the current business service selection.
