Useful methods in Oracle ADF part-2

//1. Method to call a flow in taskFlow programatically 

 public static void gotoFlow(String flowName) {
        FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        Application app = context.getApplication();
        NavigationHandler handler = app.getNavigationHandler();
        handler.handleNavigation(context, null, flowName);
    }

//2. Util method to show error and Success Msg

 public static void showMsg(String msgBody, String msgSeverity) {
        FacesMessage fm = new FacesMessage(msgBody);
        if (msgSeverity.equals("info")) {
            fm.setSeverity(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_INFO);

    }

//3. Get Cookie value in ADF

 
        public static String getCookieValue(String cookieName) {
        FacesContext fctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        ExternalContext ectx = fctx.getExternalContext();
        Map vRequestCookieMap = ectx.getRequestCookieMap();

        if (cookie != null) {
            return cookie.getValue();
        }
        return null;
    }
   
   

//4. Load a jsp or jspx page (redirect to a page)

 
  public static String loadPage(String pageName) {
        FacesContext vFacesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();

        }
        return null;
    }

//5. Initializing the ADFLogger

private static ADFLogger _logger = 
            ADFLogger.createADFLogger(YourClassName.class); 

//6. Clear the ADF table filter

    public static void removeFilter(RichTable tableBind,String processQueryName) {
        FilterableQueryDescriptor queryDescriptor =
            (FilterableQueryDescriptor)tableBind.getFilterModel();
        if (queryDescriptor != null &&
            queryDescriptor.getFilterCriteria() != null) {
            queryDescriptor.getFilterCriteria().clear();
//processQueryName can found in queryListner of table eg:- #{bindings.Employee1Query.processQuery}
            FacesUtils.invokeMethodExpression(processQueryName,
                                              Object.class, QueryEvent.class,

        }
    }

// 7.Implementing like type filter in ADF table filter

public static void likeFilter(RichTable tableBind,String processQueryName) {
        FilterableQueryDescriptor queryDescriptor =
            (FilterableQueryDescriptor)tableBind.getFilterModel();
        if (queryDescriptor != null &&
