Creating new row using CreateInsert operation

Sample application - CreateInsert.zip, demonstrates how to create editable table with 'create new row' functionality in ADF BC.

We will use Jobs entity, generated from standard HR schema Jobs table. When view object and application module are generated, it is time to drag and drop Jobs table in View layer. Drag and drop it as ADF Table (not read-only). When table is created, expand Operations group and select Create operation.


Drag and drop selected Create operation to the 'actions' facet of the table and create ADF Command Button. However, it is not enough just to drag and drop. Additionally, select created button with right mouse click and choose Edit Binding. In the opened dialog choose CreateInsert instead of Insert as an action for JobsView1.


Now, drag and drop Commit operation to the 'actions' facet of the table and create second ADF Command Button. Finally, we have implemented editable table with 'create new row' feature.
