Java Development Tools

Hi All,

Using JDev 11.1.2.3.0.

I've been working on solving this puzzle for awhile.  I'm trying to implement a simpler version of ADF Code Corner #42 (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/42-progressbarcolor-169184.pdf

The trick is that my "business service" is running in my application module.  In a nutshell, I take 10,000 view object rows and run them through a few different algorithms.  It'd be great to give a progress report during this operation.  However, as soon as I start my application module method, my <af:poll> component shuts down, refusing to update the page in the process.

I've looked at alot of different tutorials/sites to try to fix this problem.  I'm trying to stay within the bounds of ADF Essentials which means no ADS, only polling.  Here are a couple of the better references:

GEBS | Oracle ADF Progress Indicator in Fusion Middleware 11g

Refresh part of the page periodically using poll component |

One page runs their "business service" in the managed bean and the other simply re-executes a view object.  I can't find a site which runs their own business service and polls during it.  Here's what I've got:

Application Module

    private long uploadStatus;


    public void doUpload() {
        long max = this.getMaximum();
        for(this.uploadStatus = 0; this.uploadStatus <= max ; this.uploadStatus += 500){
            System.out.println("@ " + this.uploadStatus);
            try {
                TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
        System.out.println("Upload Complete");
    }

    public long getStatus(){
        return this.uploadStatus;
    }

    public long getMaximum(){
        return 10000;
    }

Backing Bean

public class ProgressBarModel extends BoundedRangeModel {

    private long max;
    private long status;

    Thread newProgress = null;

    public ProgressBarModel() {
        this.getMaximum();
        this.getValue();
    }

    @Override
    public long getMaximum() {
        // Not best practice. Should get through page def method operation
        AppModuleImpl am = (AppModuleImpl)ADFUtils.getApplicationModule("AppModuleDataControl");
        this.max = am.getMaximum();
        return this.max;
    }

    @Override
    public long getValue() {
        System.out.println("polling ...");
        AppModuleImpl am = (AppModuleImpl)ADFUtils.getApplicationModule("AppModuleDataControl");
        this.status = am.getStatus();
        return this.status;
    }

    public void doUpload(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
        if (newProgress != null) {
            newProgress.interrupt();
        }

        ProgressUpdater progressSimulator = new ProgressUpdater();
        newProgress = new Thread(progressSimulator);
        newProgress.run();

    }

    public void stopUpload() {
        newProgress.interrupt();
        newProgress = null;
    }

    class ProgressUpdater implements Runnable {
        public void run() {
            AppModuleImpl am = (AppModuleImpl)ADFUtils.getApplicationModule("AppModuleDataControl");
            am.doUpload();
        }
    }

    public long getPercentageUploaded() {
        long state = this.status * 10 / 10000;
        if(state >= 100){
            this.stopUpload();
        }
        return this.status * 100 / 10000;
    }
}

JSPX

<af:panelFormLayout id="pfl1">
                                <af:poll id="pollid" interval="1000"/>
                                <af:outputFormatted value="#{MyProgressRangeModel.percentageUploaded}% completed"
                                                    id="of1" partialTriggers="pollid"/>
                                <af:commandToolbarButton actionListener="#{MyProgressRangeModel.doUpload}" text="Run"
                                                        id="ctb1"/>
</af:panelFormLayout>

Gives me the output

polling ...
polling ...
polling ...
@ 0
@ 500
@ 1000
@ 1500
@ 2000
@ 2500
@ 3000
.... // up to 10000
Upload Complete
polling ...
polling ...

How can I get the poll to monitor while an application module's method is running?  Use more than one app module, one for inserting into the database and another for monitoring?

Thanks,

Will
