I'm often asked to demonstrate how easy it is with Oracle ADF and JSF to do iterative development, and a popular question prospective customers want to understand in this area is the following:
If I need to add a new column in one of my database tables, how hard is it to update my ADF / JSF application to include that new column?
I've added screencast #8 to my page of ADF Screencasts that illustrates how easy this is by showing you the few, declarative steps you'd need to do to accomplish this task. In the screen cast, I illustrate:
-
Performing an ALTER TABLE ADD to add a new column to the DEPT table
-
Synchronizing the ADF entity object with the table
-
Including the new entity object attribute in the desired view objects
-
Dropping new databound controls onto an existing JSF page to show/edit the new column
-
Adding a new column to an existing ADF table to display the new data
