You can create UI widgets that allow you to display and collect information using data controls created for your business services. For example, using the Data Control Palette, you can drag an attribute for an item, and then choose to display the value as either read-only text or as an input text field with a label.
Instead of having to drop individual attributes, JDeveloper allows you to drop all attributes for an object at once as a form. The actual UI components that make up the form depend on the type of form dropped.
Once you drop the UI components, you can then drop built-in operations as command UI components that allow users to operate on the data. For example, you can create buttons that allow users to navigate between data objects displayed in the form. You can also modify the default components to suit your needs.
This chapter explains the following:
How to create individual databound text fields
How to create a form consisting of multiple text fields
How to add operations that allow you to navigate between the data objects displayed in a form
How to modify the form once it has been created
