I landed only a couple of hours ago and here's my report form Kscope 2012 in San Antonio. As I write this, KScope is still waking up for the final day. Anyway, for me KScope was over yesterday. The venue, the JW Marriott San Antonio, was IMHO somewhat in the middle of nowhere, which is a pity given the fact that downtown San Antonio is beautiful. It took the free shuttle bus about 35 minutes to get there. Anyway, I was not around for site seeing, I was visiting the conference. At the conference I joined the Fusion Middleware track, not only as an attendee but also as a presenter of two sessions.. With over 30 sessions and the Sunday Symposium, this years FMW track again was a very usefull track for everyone that wanted to learn about FMW.Most of the session where ADF related, however there were a couple of webcenter and SOA sessions as well.

Shorts are needed..... I struck me that wherever I looked, all the climate data was displayed in the same kind of graph.  Climate Graphs as shown in the picture below ussually contain information about temparature and precipitation, Maximum, Minimum and Average temperature per month as well as precipitation per month. I wondered if it is possible to create such a graph with ADF Data Visualization Tools. In this post I'll show you how to create such a climate graph. It looks quit obvious. Create a graph with 3 line sections and one bar section, a combination of several types. The DVT component set contains a component. This is the one to go for. You can even pick a Dual Y axis in order to show a temperature axis and precipitation axis When you use this component you will find ou...

Last week I attended OBUG Connect Conference, the Oracle Benelux User Group Conference. It was a great conference where I presented about the new to come ADF Mobile Framework. This is not yet Generally Available, but because of the good relationship with Oracle Productmanagement I was able to get hold of some very early sneak peaks so I could prepare a great presentation. I am not yet able to share anything in this post, however, feel free to contact me if you need to know more. I will see what I can do for you. As soon as I can share the presentation, I will host a link on my blog. There is an oline photo impression of this conference, with a couple of photos of the presentation, and the live Fusion Middleware Development session. Not only did I do my presentation, I was also part of the live Fusion Middleware Development team, next to Ronald van Luttikhuizen, Lonneke Dikmans, Steven Davelaar, Edwin Biemond en Lucas Jellema. An impression of this session can be found ...
