Following are the Some code which is very usefull when working in oracle ADF and JSF.Please go through

// print the roles of the current user
for ( String role : ADFContext.getCurrent().getSecurityContext().getUserRoles() ) {
System.out.println("role "+role);
}




// get the ADF security context and test if the user has the role users 
SecurityContext sec = ADFContext.getCurrent().getSecurityContext();
if ( sec.isUserInRole("users") ) {
}


// is the user valid
public boolean isAuthenticated() {
return ADFContext.getCurrent().getSecurityContext().isAuthenticated();
}



// return the user 
public String getCurrentUser() {
return ADFContext.getCurrent().getSecurityContext().getUserName();
}



// get the binding container 
BindingContainer bindings = BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();



// get an ADF attributevalue from the ADF page definitions 
AttributeBinding attr = (AttributeBinding)bindings.getControlBinding("test");

// get an Action or MethodAction 
OperationBinding method = bindings.getOperationBinding("methodAction");
method.execute();
List errors = method.getErrors();



method = bindings.getOperationBinding("methodAction");

method.execute();



// Get the data from an ADF tree or table
DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer)BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();

// Get a attribute value of the current row of iterator 
DCIteratorBinding iterBind= (DCIteratorBinding)dcBindings.get("testIterator");
