JDev/ADF sample - ADF Mobile 12c (MAF) Support for Master-Detail Data Control

  • ADF Mobile 12c (MAF) Support for Master-Detail Data Control. ADF 12c is shipped with renamed mobile platform framework - Oracle Mobile Application Framework (MAF). Previously this was named ADF Mobile. 12c MAF is based on ADF Mobile and provides additional functionality and improvements. Everyone familiar with ADF Mobile 11g, should get up to speed with 12c without issues. I would like to highlight one interesting improvement implemented in 12c MAF - out of the box support for Master-Detail relationship. In previous 11g release, master record key was not preserved across different pages - developer was forced to store selected key in memory, to call execute method through invoke action in the second page and finally to reset a key. There was an alternative solution, described by Steven Davelaar - ADF Mobile – Preserving the Current Row Across Pages. Approach described in Steven's blog seems to be integrated into 12c MAF, there is no need to manage selected Master key manually, framework does this for you.
