The following topics introduce the new and changed features of Oracle JDeveloper and Oracle Application Development Framework (Oracle ADF) and other significant changes, which are described in this guide.
Oracle Fusion Middleware Release 12c (12.1.3) of Oracle JDeveloper and Oracle Application Development Framework (Oracle ADF) includes the following new and changed development features, which are described in this guide:
New No Paging option in the wizards for creating EJB and bean data controls. See Section 3.4, "Paginated Fetching of Data in EJB Data Controls."
Ability to use the AccessMode
annotation on either the session bean class or the interface (remote or local) on which the data control is based. See Section 3.4.4, "How to Specify Access Mode for Individual Objects in the Data Control."
New capability to add UI hints to a data control by adding annotations directly to the bean classes (meaning that separate XML data control structure files are not needed to define the UI hints). See Section 3.5, "Providing UI Hints for Attributes Using Annotations."
Ability to specify a configuration class to hold the metadata for custom bean data controls. See Section 4.9, "Creating Custom Bean Data Controls."
