ADF
Applications uses power of reusable task flows to be embed as regions
in the page, which can be refreshed based on the use cases.
But
there are some requirements by the clients which still emphasize on
using Iframe to display different applications inside one application.
Suppose
there is a requirement where there are 3 applications A,B and Consuming
Application. All three applications A,B and Consuming needs to be
deployed as separate EAR(Applications) and Consuming App needs to
display the A and B Applications pages inside its main page.
Portal
architecture can also fit for this requirement but if there is only ADF
you need to implement this, the only choice to do is using Iframe.
In this post I will explain you how we can create a menu and show another application in IFrame in ADF Application.
We will use af:inlineFrame component to achieve this. Below is the use case.
The
above diagram is for consuming application and Links in the menu
(TestPage1 and TestPage2) refers to another application and the pages on
click will open in right hand side inside Iframe.
Lets get started.
Created an ADF Application which has two pages. This will be deployed before the Iframe Application. Read the complete article here.
