ADF Table column filters making it case insensitive

When you drag a view from data control and drop it on a page as ADF Table and mark it filterable, filters are added on each table column.

The problem here is when you enter any text on filter and hit enter, the table is filtered, but you will notice that its a case sensitive filtering and you cannot see the results if the data contains characters in different case (small or capital letters). 

You can overcome this issue by following this:

1. select table column from structure window

2. Go to properties for the table column

3. Select Behavior tab

4. In FilterFeatures property write "caseInsensitive".

5. Hit enter, save all changes and you are done !!

ADF DVT : How to get multi-selection values from a pie chart

When you want to perform some action on click and get the clicked value (one or more than one pie slice) from the pie chart, you can use ClickAction added to the page bean. Here is how you can do it:

1. Add pie chart on the page

2. Bind the pie chart with a bean UIGraph component 
[code] private UIGraph myPie;  [/code]

3. Pay close attention to dataSelection attribute in the pie properties, if you want to get value of one pie slice then select "single" or select "multiple" for more than one values from a pie (default is "none"). you page should look like the code below:
[code] [/code]

4. Add this method to your bean (myBean)
[code]public String myPieSelectionAction(){ Object value1 = null; Object value2 = null; Set selectionSet = (Set) myPie.getSelection(); if (selectionSet == null) { //Show message to select pie slice return null; } for (GraphSelection selection: selectionSet) { if (selection instanceof DataSelection) { DataSelection ds = (DataSelection) selection; value1= ds.getSeriesKey().get("myAttribute1"); value2 = ds.getSeriesKey().get("myArrribute2"); } } // Do whatever you want with collected values return null; }[/code]

ADF DVT : Use of Click Listener for Pie Chart

When you want to perform some action on click and get the clicked value from the pie chart, you can use ClickListener added to the page bean. Here is the code you can use for the click listener:

1. Add it to your pie chart on the page

< dvt:pieGraph id ="graph5" value="#{bindings.yourView1.graphModel}" subType="PIE" dynamicResize="DYNAMIC_SIZE"

      clickListener="#{bean.myPieClickListener}" />



2. Add this to your bean

  public void myPieClickListener(ClickEvent evt)
  {
    ComponentHandle handle = evt.getComponentHandle();
    String myCode = null;
    if (handle instanceof DataComponentHandle)
    {
      DataComponentHandle dhandle = (DataComponentHandle) handle;
      Attributes[] seriesInfo = dhandle.getSeriesAttributes();
      if (seriesInfo != null)
      {
        for (Attributes attrs: seriesInfo)
        {
          myCode = (String) attrs.getValue(Attributes.ID_VALUE);
        }
      }
      //do whatever you want with your code
    }
  }
