Oracle UI Shell template is a great pattern for application integration through Dynamic Tabs. I have developed simple application with multiple Dynamic Tabs based on Dynamic Regions from ADF Task Flows packaged into ADF JAR Libraries - ADFIntegrationUIShell.zip. Today post is a next in my Integration series.
First thing, make sure you updated Oracle UI Shell template. Open JDeveloper Check For Updates wizard and from Official Oracle Updates section select Oracle Dynamic Tabs Page Template 1.02:
Next, when you create main page, make sure you select Oracle Dynamic Tabs Shell template from JSF Page creation wizard:
Define managed bean to store Dynamic Region references and to launch Dynamic Tabs, this bean should be declared in PageFlowScope for proper Dynamic Regions rendering:
You can plug-in into Oracle UI Shell different applications through Dynamic Regions coming from ADF Task Flows (Locations, Departments. Jobs, Employees):
Each application will be opened in separate Dynamic Tab - thats really powerful and it works:

Hi,
congrats for your posts, they are very usefull! ;)
I'm working on a big project to developing a complex system with ADF 11g. We have various applications (packaged in JAR libraries) which should be integrated on a main application. The logical applications should invoke each other and pass parameters.
Following the UI Shell pattern, what is the best approach to pass parameters between the applications?
regards, Pedro Medeiros.
Hi Pedro,
You can do this programmatically, UIShell 1.02 supports this.

Hello Andrejus,
with interest I follow your blog.
Do you know where to get the new version of ui shell which is described at here:http://www.orastudy.com/oradoc/selfstu/fusion/doc.1111/e15524/ui_impl_uishell.htm
Regards, Baris
This one is for Oracle Fusion Apps, we dont have public JDev download yet.

Hi,
I wanted source code of Oracle UI Shell 1.02.
Could you tell me from where I can get that?
I guess only from Metalink, Oracle Support.
Andrejus
Using the method described I implemented the dynamic task flow.
It worked fine until I applied ADF security to the application. The tab header is showing but the rest of the fragment isn't displaying.
Kindly advise.
Hi Andrew,
can build right side navigation also using this UI shell version?? i mean in addtion top,bottom left and center content areas, can we have right side context area too??
Thanks Kishore
Yes, you would need to change it in UI Shell source code.
