Working with the data control layer and binding

When we create a page for the first time, the page definition is not created for the page. The page definition file is created for the page only if the page contains any components bound to the data control layer using the bindings. For example, when we add a text component to display the Empno value from the EMP table, the page definition file, indexPageDef.xml, is created with the corresponding attribute bindings that map it to the underlying Empno attribute from the EmpVO view object. The page definition file will be created in the adfmsrc folder inside the ViewController project. For example, the indexPageDef.xml file will be created in \ViewController\adfmsrc\com\empdirectory\view\pageDefs
