There’s a mess with the selectManyCheckbox bindings: for both initial list items and selected items. ADF itself doesn’t support direct binding to a ViewObject, and that’s why, as Frank Nimphius said,
First off, the managed bean. It should contain fields with accessors for two lists: the initial options and the selected items.
The initialListItems will be bound to the multi-selection items element. Whilst the selectedItems list will contain the selected items from the initial list. The important thing is the datatype for the latter – a java.util.List! In fact it’s what provokes the “Unsupported Model Type” exception. This datatype hassle was actually the part that took me a real while to get it, I tried primitive array, ArrayList of String’s, Object’s and what not!
Now the only thing left is to bind both lists to the multi-selection component.
No more exceptions. That's it, hope it helps!
…you would need to use a managed bean to dispatch between the ADF binding layer and the multi select component.Maybe it’s just me, but it took me a while to figure out how exactly to do it.
