Access outputbox value in another region

mrig-Oracle

I want to change value of the OutputBox, which is on the main page, after an event which occurs on a region within the page.

I guess, the first choice here might be to use Context events where I can pass the event details to the main Page's Backing Bean and do the required processing to change the OB value. (Haven't tried it yet so not sure of the complications.)

But is there any other simple way of just accessing the OB in the region, something like setting a OB reference in ViewScope or PageFlowScope (I am getting 'null' reference values using this method in the region.) Basically I just want to change the value of the OB on the main page.

Thanks!

Frank's article Oracle ADF May/June 2013 shows the possible solutions. A parent action should work in your case.
