Oracle DOES NOT Support STD OAF PAGE Controller Changes

Oracle does not recommend that customers extend controller objects associated with
regions or web beans in shipped E-Business Suite product pages. Controller class
(oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OAControllerImpl) methods should
effectively be considered private, since their implementation is subject to change.
Controller extensions are therefore not considered to be durable between upgrades. If it
is absolutely essential to handle custom form submit events on a shipped product page,
processFormRequest() is the only method that should be overriden in a controller
class, although the risks outlined above still apply .


what is passivation?

BLAF <>>> the bluff--> Marketing!!

BLAF (Browser-Look-And-Feel) guidelines. BLAF is the default look and feel that all OA Framework applications assume,
but can be personalized in many ways to meet customer branding and style requirements. OA
Framework's implementation of BLAF standards yields a consistent user experience and further
enhances user productivity


OAF follows MVC architecture


Model --> Business Logic--> 
View --> UI
Controller--> Business Flow


 


Model --> BC4J
