If you want to read the adf-config.xml entries from Java code, try getting ADFConfig object from ADFContext and read the map of entries by passing specific name spaces. An example is copied below- ADFContext aDFContext = ADFContext.getCurrent(); ADFConfig adfConfig= aDFContext.getADFConfig(); Map map= adfConfig.getConfigObject("http://xmlns.oracle.com/adfm/config"); Long rowLimit=(Long)map.get("jbo.row.limit");

Copying simple example for af:treeTable whose child column displays af:inputComboboxListOfValues component <af:treeTable value="#{bindings.DepartmentsView2.treeModel}" var="node" selectionListener="#{bindings.DepartmentsView2.treeModel.makeCurrent}" rowSelection="single" id="tt1"> <f:facet name="nodeStamp"> <af:column id="c1"> <af:outputText value="#{node}" id="ot1"/> </af:column> </f:facet> <f:facet name="pathStamp"> <af:outputText value="#{node}" id="ot2"/> </f:facet> <af:column headerText="Manager ID" id="c10"> <af:inputComboboxListOfValues rendered="#{not empty node.EmployeeId}" id="managerIdId" ...

An excellent initiative. Refer Grant's blog post - Your Chance to Change the ADF Future   for more details.

In this post I'm sharing an approach to trigger the validation once for the entire entity collection when you commit the transaction. Steps : Define a method validator for the entity object. In the Add Validation Rule dialog, select the Validation Execution tab, and choose Defer the execution to Transaction Level  Implement the validation method in your entity implementation class. An example is shown below: /** * Validation method for Departments. */ public boolean validateDepartments(ArrayList ctxList) { Iterator iter = ctxList.iterator(); while (iter.hasNext()) { JboValidatorContext entValContext = (JboValidatorContext)iter.next(); DepartmentsImpl deptEO = (DepartmentsImpl)entValContext.getSource(); if (deptEO.getDepartmentName() == null) { // if Dept is null, throw error- this is just an example to illustrate the usage of this method return false; } ...
