2 Agenda Oracle Applications Framework(OAF) Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications Oracle Mobile Applications Oracle OAF, Mobile Apps and MSCA Summary Oracle Application Development Framework Questions

3 OA Framework

4 OA Framework Uses J2EE Model, View and Controller (MVC) Architecture o Model implements business logic o View formats and presents data from model to the user o Controller handles user interaction, responds to user actions & directs application flow

5 OA Framework OA Framework architecture is based on Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern

6 OA Framework Java components are on Application tier or Middle tier AOL/J validates user access to the page; Provide EBS features such as menus, functions, messages, profiles, flex fields and attachments The page definition (metadata UI definition) is loaded from the metadata repository on the database tier into the application tier. The Business components for Java (BC4J) objects that contain the application logic and access the database are instantiated. The Java Controller programmatically manipulates the page definition as necessary, based on dynamic UI rules. UIX (HTML UI Generator) interprets the page definition, creates the corresponding HTML in accordance with UI standards, and sends the page to the browser.

7 Oracle Applications Framework examples View Object package xx.oracle.apps.inv.oha.xxitemmaster.server; import oracle.apps.fnd.framework.server.oaviewobjectimpl; Application Module package xx.oracle.apps.inv.oha.xxitemmaster.server; import oracle.apps.fnd.framework.server.oaapplicationmoduleimpl; public class xxitemmasteramimpl extends OAApplicationModuleImpl { /** This is the default constructor (do not remove) */ public xxitemmasteramimpl() { }

8 OAF Summary Enterprise-Grade Performance and Scalability Improved End User Productivity Highly extensible architecture Browser Look and Feel (BLAF terminology) for all applications Open industry Standards such as XML, HTML, Java, JSP, SQL and Web Services.

9 Oracle Mobile Supply Chain (MSCA)

10 Oracle MSCA MSCA is based on Java Event Listener model Provide EBS features such as menus, functions, messages, profiles and flex fields Function class : Java class registered as function in Application Object Library Page class : For Page initialization; creates page and adds beans to the page Listener class : Event listener class; Listens to evens on each bean and calls appropriate method to handle that event

11 Oracle MSCA Same application for all certified devices Automatically adapts to any form factor No mobility software (oracle lite ) required

12 Oracle MSCA Telnet version; Need telnet on mobile GUI version is available Need J2ME JVM on mobile

13 Oracle MSCA Telnet version GUI Version

14 Oracle MSCA In GUI version o Read-only and required fields are more visible with a different background color unlike in the character-mode client o Easier navigation and using mouse can jump to desired fields o Network access requirements are same as that of character-mode interfaces o No additional MWA middle-tier requirements

15 Oracle MSCA examples Listener class package oracle.apps.inv.rcv.server; import com.sun.java.util.collections.hashmap; import java.sql.*; import java.util.*; import oracle.apps.fnd.common.versioninfo; import oracle.apps.inv.lov.server.*; import oracle.apps.inv.utilities.invresourcetable; import oracle.apps.inv.utilities.server.*; import oracle.apps.mwa.beans.*; import oracle.apps.mwa.container.*; import oracle.apps.mwa.eventmodel.*; import oracle.apps.mwa.presentation.telnet.telnetsession; import oracle.jdbc.driver.*; // Referenced classes of package oracle.apps.inv.rcv.server: // RcvFListener, RcptGenPage, RcvConstants, RcvPage public class RcptGenFListener extends RcvFListener { public RcptGenFListener() { invitemid = ""; calledfromlpnbean = false; moriglpnvalue = ""; }

16 Oracle MSCA Proven architecture for supply chain applications Oracle MSCA framework designed for Mobile devices Network access requirements are same as that of character-mode interfaces No additional MWA middle-tier requirements Java ME compatible JVM should be installed on Mobile Device

17 Oracle Mobile Applications (MA)

18 Oracle Mobile Applications The Mobile Server Repository in the Applications database The Oracle9i Lite Mobile Server For laptops, A local Oracle Lite database and a local Web-to-go server For Palm devices, A local Oracle Lite database and msync clients on each Palm device

19 Oracle Mobile Applications Well suited for disconnected applications; e.g.: Field Service Oracle Lite server needs to be installed on Mobile Device; may work on only some devices

20 Summary of OAF, MA, MSCA Oracle Applications Framework o Framework developed by Oracle Oracle MSCA o Proven architecture for Supply Chain applications o Framework developed by Oracle; Designed for Mobile devices o Need JME compatible JVM on mobile device Mobile Applications o Well suited for disconnected applications; Disconnected not in scope o Additional configuration steps needed; Need Oracle lite on mobile device

21 Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF)

22 ADF

23 OAF and ADF Comparison OAF ADF Has Oracle Apps specific features Yes No Flexfields Yes No
