Introduction Oracle GoldenGate (OGG) provides a mechanism for assigning values to parameters at run time. In this article we shall discuss this feature and show you how to reference operating system variables from within an OGG parameter file. Main Article Typically when we create OGG Groups we edit a parameter file and define configuration options. This requires that we edit the parameter file whenever a change occurs that affects the operating environment. Instead of...

Introduction Many customers want to use Sites as a 'thin' rendering framework and mix web content with back-end applications. An example of such a back-end service might be a application that exposes its interface through a REST API. In this blog I explore a pattern to expose the interaction with such a API through Sites. For this I introduce a simple MVC framework that showcases the patterns. Main Article REST In the exploration I show the reading of JSON responses of two...

Working with Multiple Versions of an Asset Concurrently Introduction Many times there is a requirement to work on the multiple versions of an asset concurrently. For example, you may be working on one version of Home Page. But, before the version of Home Page goes live, you may have to start work on the next version of the Home Page. Some companies change their Home Page every day, and the business process require several days before a version of the Home Page is approved....

This will allow those engines to properly index your site which will result in better rankings and traffic. WebCenter Portal provides several techniques to deliver content in dynamic way which can be changed by business owners and contributors. One of the key components is the Content Presenter which displays content from a...

Introduction In WebCenter Portal (WCP), once a page is created with a particular style, any subsequent changes to that style are not applied to those existing pages. Internally, the page style definition is copied when the page is created, so there is no link back to those pages when the page style is updated. The impact of this design approach is that changes to a page style can be expensive, since all existing pages have to be manually edited to conform to the updated...

Introduction A previous blog post discussed how to generate and consume user accounts when testing WebCenter with OATS. In this scenario, the generated user accounts can only be used once. This blog post addresses the additional complexity of multiple scripts that each do a part of the overall test case, with each script using the results of the previous step. Main Article Each OATS script tests a part of the overall functionality of the customer application, then records...

The WebCenter Sites API does not have a full Java API for the Render tags. Creating a URL for a page or a blob in a Groovy element is not straight forward. Also calling another Template from a Groovy element or any java code, requires a bridge API. In this article we'll explorer that API. RunTag API Since the earliest versions of WebCenter Site there has been support for XML elements and a corresponding XML Tag API. From XML Tags it was possible to call the WCS Java API. Also...

In our continued exploration of Groovy as an alternative to traditional JSP element to implement the rendering business logic, we step today into multi-dimensionable assets. Or to put it more simply: how do I look up a translated asset in Groovy. The example makes use of the FirstSiteII sample site assets. The assetids reference that site. The code itself is straight forward once you understand the moving parts. To lookup a translated asset 3 components are used: a Dimension...

Introduction The Oracle Application Testing Suite (ATS) is a comprehensive testing solution with built-in support for testing Application Development Framework (ADF) applications. In many testing scenarios, user accounts can be generated once and used again and again when testing various functional areas. These user accounts could be created by a script or even created manually. Some testing scenarios, however, require that user accounts can only be used once. In this...
