“Hello World” is the first program one usually writes when learning a new programming language. The first Hello World program appeared in chapter 1.1 of the first edition of  The C Programming Language, in 1978. Since then, Hello World has been implemented in just about every programming language on the planet. The Hello World collection [...]

I tend to read technical books, so I was pleased to be given the opportunity to review a book co-authored by an old colleague:  Oracle E-Business Suite Development & Extensibility Handbook Despite the personal relationship, I will try to not let this cloud my opinion of this book.

A popular tool for web service testing is SoapUI. The following blog post describes how to use it for testing a simple web service, as well as setting up a series of tests and even load/stress testing. Without a doubt similar documentation is available on the SoapUI website; my post gives my spin on the [...]

The “new features” collateral for the JDeveloper 11g technical preview didn’t contain the slightest mention of it, but we added a lot of new tools in this release to make it easier than ever to build extensions for JDeveloper and SQL Developer. Partly to figure out what works in terms of knocking together screencasts from [...]

Symptom Suppose you published an Application Module method as a client method, f.ex.: public void yourMethod() {   System.out.println(“Hello World”);} You created an ADF Faces page and included the following in your page definition (<yourPage>PageDef.xml): …  <executables>    …    <invokeAction Binds=”yourMethod” id=”executeYourMethodAction”                  RefreshCondition=”${!adfFacesContext.postback}”/>    …  </executables>  <bindings>…  <methodAction id=”yourMethod” InstanceName=”AppModuleDataControl.dataProvider”                DataControl=”AppModuleDataControl” MethodName=”yourMethod”                RequiresUpdateModel=”true” Action=”999″                IsViewObjectMethod=”false”/>  </bindings></pageDefinition> The aim is to execute yourMethod when the page first renders (controlled by [...]
