JDev/ADF sample - Configuring MDS Customisation Layer and Layer Value Combination in ADF

  • Configuring MDS Customisation Layer and Layer Value Combination in ADF. With this post I would like to dive a bit deeper into MDS customisation and layer combination handling. By default, there is defined customisation layer - site. Typically we set our own customisation values for this layer, as a result - all customisations usually are stored under site layer. There could be situations, when more advanced setup would be required - to be able to control layer and layer value combination in a custom way. In other words - to be able to define your own custom layer and then provide customisation values for this layer (MDS customisations will be stored under custom_layer/custom_layer_value, instead of default site/custom_layer_value). Oracle docs would not describe how to handle on runtime layer name to be dynamic and retrieve it from some sort of configuration file. I'm going to describe a technique for this, allowing to combine and group MDS customisations under custom layer and layer values folders.
