Oracle ADF : Oracle ADF 12cR2 – Deploy Application as shared library and Use the taskflow in another Application

Nowadays I am working on different Banking application to digitize the process. I am working on application where 7 to 8 ADF developers working separately and building the taskflow for the single application which we need to integrate in one single application. This post I will explain how to deploy the application as shared library which contain taskflow and consume it in standalone ADF 12cR2 application.

First we will start with creating the new application and create the taskflow. I am using HR schema for Business component and creating one taskflow where I can drop employee View Object as as list. This application where we have created the taskflow

I have two below two application

SharedApp – contain one taskflow( Employee list) which we will deploy as shared library

StandaloneApp- Main application where we are consuming the above taskflow

Note: Rename the ViewController package to avoid the conflict of DataBindings.cpx file. Make sure both applications DataBindings.cpx file should have unique package name otherwise you will get below error.

Right click on ViewController of SharedApp and create ADF library JAR File Deployment profile. Make sure Model is available and unselect the connection checkbox as we are going to use JNDI name.

Now Just right click on ViewController and deploy the ADF Library JAR File

Create the custom project in your application (SharedApp) which you want to deploy as shared library.

Create the WAR deployment Profile. Check ADF Library JAR Profile dependency.

Go to project properties and Add the library dependencies.

Remove the extra entries in web.xml Just keep as below.

<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd"
 version="3.0">
 </web-app>

Right click on deployment profile and click on Refresh ADF Library dependencies.
Right click on deployment profile again and Project properties -> Libraries and Classpath and remove the other libraries
