Before I talk about the advantages en methods of using the MDS, I want to introduce myself, because this is my first public post on the AMIS technology blog. My name is Robert van Mölken and I’m 26 years old. I’m now actively working, as a SOA Consultant / Developer, for nearly 5 years. My [...]

Last week I a had a rather interesting question: Is it possible to highlight related data that is in different af:table components ? Sure you can, so I decided to write a simple example application, and share the knowledge in this post The use Case. After selecting a row in one table I need to highlight related [...]

Recently I gained access to an electronic copy of the just released Oracle Service Bus 11g Development Cookbook, written by five authors – all experts on OSB and three personal acquaintances of mine. I was very interested in learning about the final result after hearing many intermediate comments during the writing process as well as [...]

In my previous post I described how to create a PDF file/report in Oracle BPEL (Create a JasperReport from Oracle BPEL). Now I will describe how to sent this PDF file as attachment in an email. After invoking the createBookService the outcome is used to construct the email message. In particular the filename and the [...]

In my previous post I described how to create a Report (CDBooklet) with JasperReport in Java. Follow this link to take a look at the post ‘Using Java to create a report with the JasperReport java API’ For this new post I created a webservice wrapper around this reporting functionality and deployed it to a Weblogic [...]

The requirement I was facing was simple: act on column reordering through user drag and drop in a rich table. More specifically: invoke a method in a managed bean whenever the user changes the position (or side or visibility) of a column. At first it seemed trivial – just use an AttributeChangeListener. When that turned out [...]

Als je dit leest en je bent Oracle professional – ontwikkelaar of administrator – is de kans groot dat je jouw carriere bent gestart in de jaren ‘90, in het tijdperk van Oracle7, Oracle Forms en Client/Server applicaties – net voor de opkomst van Java, internet, mobiel en SOA. Misschien ligt je start daar nog [...]

In deze Masterclass leidt Alex de deelnemers rond in Oracle Database 11g Release 1 en 2 met als voornaamste doelstelling [...]

Oracle’s product portfolio contains the Technology Adapters. A set of JCA Connectors that provide a bridge between various technologies – such as JMS, AQ, Database (SQL and PL/SQL), FTP and File System – on the one hand and the world of JEE on the other. The SOA Suite 11g and Oracle Service Bus leverage these [...]

Java Embedded activity can call a custom Java class that relies on 3rd party Java libraries. This means that a lot of existing functionality from the Java open source community is at the disposal of the BPEL developer. This article shows a simple example of developing and deploying a BPEL process that uses Java Embedded [...]

The objective discussed in this article is to post messages to a CometD Bayeux Channel with a standalone Java Class – without dependencies on CometD. For example to control from Java the Slideshow introduced in the synchronized Slideshow demo application created using CometD (see previous articles Push based synchronized Slideshow demo application implemented using CometD [...]

In recent articles, I have introduced CometD as framework for Server to Client and Client to Client Push: Running CometD 2 examples – locally on Tomcat using Maven and NetBeans http://technology.amis.nl/blog/14709/running-cometd-2-examples-locally-on-tomcat-using-maven-and-netbeans, CometD 2 Java Client Sample – open project in NetBeans based on Maven pom file, modify sources and run Java Based Comet Client (http://technology.amis.nl/blog/14720/cometd-2-java-client-sample-open-project-in-netbeans-based-on-maven-pom-file-modify-sources-and-run-java-based-comet-client) [...]

Session state in Java Web application is associated with a single (user) browser session on the one hand and typically with a specific web application on the other (server side) hand. Session state is created and maintained in the context of a usually a single web application. However… We ran into a situation where our web [...]

EL expressions are one of the main driving forces for JavaServer Faces. Most dynamic characteristics of pages and widgets are governed by EL expressions. In JSF 1.x, there are some limitations for EL expressions that can at times be a little frustrating. One of the limitations is the fact that no custom functions or operators [...]

Last year I wrote about JSoup, a Java library that helps with screenscraping: Screenscraping from Java using jsoup – effective data gathering from websites (http://technology.amis.nl/blog/13121/screenscraping-from-java-using-jsoup-effective-data-gathering-from-websites). Last month I had another opportunity for using JSoup, this time to gather song lyrics for the songs on a CD. The context in this case was the internal SOA [...]

In this blog I will describe how to create a Report with JasperReport in Java. For this purpose I have used the Communitie edition of iReport. This edition contains besides JasperReport also iReport. iReport is a report designer for JasperReport. You can download it from http://jasperforge.org/projects/ireport After installation I started iReport to design a report. I [...]

In a previous article, I have discussed the open source jWebSocket Server and a simple installation and configuration (http://technology.amis.nl/blog/14940/first-steps-with-jwebsocket-open-source-java-framework-for-websockets-installation-and-running-samples). Subsequently, I have shown the implementation of a web client for a synchronized Slideshow application, where WebSocket communication is used to perform Client 2 Client push (http://technology.amis.nl/blog/14949/push-based-synchronized-slideshow-web-application-implemented-using-websockets-and-jwebsocket-server-the-open-source-java-websocket-server). In a third article I have explained how jWebSocket [...]

In a previous post – http://technology.amis.nl/blog/14949/push-based-synchronized-slideshow-web-application-implemented-using-websockets-and-jwebsocket-server-the-open-source-java-websocket-server – I discussed the implementation of the synchronized slideshow application using Web (HTML/JavaScript) clients and jWebSocket as websocket server. In an earlier article, I described the same for the Kaazing WebSocket server – http://technology.amis.nl/blog/14777/push-based-synchronized-slideshow-web-application-implemented-using-websockets-and-kaazing-websocket-gateway – and both stories are (fortunately) fairly similar. In the Kaazing article I also described [...]
