Update ViewAttribute Properties at runtime - Multiple regions of same Task Flow Issue

santiago_nc

I have create a very short program to try explain my current issue.

1) The taskflow has as first method a client method exposed from the Application Module. This is its code:

    public void setDepartmentNameLabel(String label) {       
        ViewObjectImpl vo = this.getDepartments();
        ViewDefImpl viewDef = (ViewDefImpl) vo.getDef();
        String atribName = "DepartmentName";
        int indexAttr = viewDef.getAttributeIndexOf(atribName);
        if (indexAttr != -1) {
            AttributeDefImpl attr = (AttributeDefImpl)viewDef.getAttributeDef(indexAttr);
            if (attr != null) {//Set Label Name
                attr.setProperty(AttributeHints.ATTRIBUTE_LABEL, label);
            }
        }       
    }

2) TaskFlow has a "label" parameter which is passing to previuos method

#{pageFlowScope.label}

3) View Object departments is rendered as Adf Form in a pageFragment which is exposed in the taskFlow after the client method.

4) It has created multiple regions from this TaskFlow in a page, each one with different values for task flow label parameter.

When I run this application, the same label is shared for all regions. I have tried whit Shared and Isolated modes for TaskFlow.

I suposse that in isolated mode, each region would have their own instances for ApplicationModules and ViewObjects.

PS: This is only a test sample. In real application It is modifing all UI Hints for ViewObject and It is updating its query too, then I Know that I could change the label in a managed bean but this is not the requirement.

Jdeveloper 12c (12.1.2.0) ADF12c.

If it is necessary, I could attatch application in a zip file.
