Hello All
Previously I have posted about uploading and saving files in database blob column now this post is about showing saved file content on page using ADF Faces inline frame component
In this post I am extending same previous application, Now see how we can implement this
There are few more steps to go , See the additional steps to show file content on page-
- Create a servlet to parse file into output stream , this output stream will be used to show file content further.
To create servlet right click on viewController project select New--->From Gallery-->Web Tier-->Servlet - See servlet source code to read BLOB file from database and then parse file into outputStream
- Now open page in editor and drop an af:inlineFrame from component palette . inlineFrame is used to create a frame to show any external page or document just like as HTML iframe , it is loaded from source attribute So here i am using servlet as source attribute for this inlineFrame
- Now run this application and check it
