Best way to implement app wide process

I am working on an application that has a list of art work in an sql report.. I want to be able to add each piece to a collection of items (which is stored in a table), so I added another column to the sql report to store the id of the art work. I am just wondering what is the best way to implement the process to insert the item to the collection of items. Since I want to do this from multiple pages - link from art work sql report; link from the edit page for a particular art work; and on the artists page where there is also an sql report, I thought it may be best to have an application process, to save duplicating the process on multiple pages.. however I don't think there's a way to pass the id of the item to the application process? as I was thinking best to have the application process conditional based on request, and then have the link as a doSubmit().
So is it best just to have the link redirect to the same page, passing the id of the item, and then having a process that runs before header that inserts the item, then assigning the item to NULL?
Thanks in advance,
Trent

Daniel:
Thanks for the info. I have found that the IFRAME works nicely for some applications,
however, some applications I want to re-write the front end to look better in
the portal rather than screen scrape.
Thanks for the help

screens. I am trying to determine how to do this in the best way. Ihave
noticed
that portlets behave differently inside the portal than do stand-aloneweb
apps.
Any help would be appreciated.
The other web application is the Microsoft Outlook Web Access. (Thisone

  • Best way to implement m to n relation?

    Could you please give me some advice on the best way to implement m-n relations in apex?
    Example: I want to store server and database info. A server can have multiple database of course. But in case of a RAC database, the database can be running on multiple servers. So I have tables:
    create table SERVERS (id number primary key, name varchar2(30));
    create table DATABASES(id number primary key, name varchar2(30))
    and an m-to-n table
    create table SERV_DB(serv_id number references SERVERS(id), db_id number references DATABASES(id), instance_name varchar2(30))
    So the table SERV_DB can tell me e.g. that database PROD is running on server 'prdsrv1' with instance PROD1 and on server 'prdsrv2' with instance name PROD2
    How would you design an apex page to maintain this information (adding relations, updating instance names, etc)? I have a solution using checkboxes and 2 for-loops over htmldb_application.g_f40 (to process checkboxes) and g_f41 (to process text fields with instance names) and some delete statements but the logic behind it looks too complex for me. I am convinced that this can be done more simpler. Seems like a common problem to me, so I wonder if there is no out-of-the-box solution in apex for this?
    Could you please show me or create a small demo application with the solution that looks most elegant to you?
    Thanks,
    Geert

    Thanks for your reply. You modified the question slightly, but conceptually it is still the same. What you call the instances table corresponds with my serv_db table. I understand the solution you propose using the tabular report. If I see it correctly, you would have an insert button above the tabular report for each new relation (instance - server) you would want to add. This is ok for the case i used (databases, servers, instances) because there are relatively few relations. However I would not like this solution for other cases. E.g.:
    case: you have a list of persons and a list of tasks. You want to assign tasks to persons in a way that each person has multiple tasks to do and each task can be assigned to multiple persons.
    Suppose you add a new person, and you want to assign 15 tasks to him. The solution above (with the tabular report) would be quite some work because you would have to click 15 times on the insert button and on each click select a task from the select list. In this case it would be more appropriate to, after selecting the new person, see a list of all tasks (e.g. 30 tasks) with a checkbox in front, so you can mark 15 out of the 30 checkboxes and press submit. It gets more complex when you want to assign also an attribute to the relation, i.e. showing the list with all tasks, a checkbox in front and a select list next to each task where you can choose from e.g. "priority high" or "priority low" to indicate that this task is high or low priority for that person. Is there an easy way to implement that?

  • Best way to implement a standard layout across application

    What is the best way to implement a standard layout across the application?  For example, I am converting an HTML/ColdFusion site to Flex and I need to keep the look of the existing site in the new Flex app.  I need a standard layout on every screen in the new app with a standard header, footer and left nav bar.  Do I need to add that code to every screen in the app or can I just create on layout file and call that into every screen?  Thanks!

  • Best way to implement connection pooling with tomcat4.0?

    Hi all!
    I need your help:
    What's the best way to implement connection pooling (Oracle Database) with tomcat 4.0?
    I only found ways to implement it in tomcat 4.1, not in 4.0....
    Thanks!
    Michael

    You can use a Datasource managed by tomcat. Earlier versions of tomcat used Exolab's Tyrex for the implementation of the Datasource API which uses connection pooling. Current version uses commons-dbcp and commons-pool (jakarta projects) I think.
    You've got to declare the Datasource in server.xml and then in web.xml of your web app.

  • Best way to implement request-response and still reliability

              HI,
              what is the best way to implement a request -response paradigm and still have
              the reliability that message will be 100% processed and give response...do i need
              to create the permanant queues with storage..
              anybody gives suggestions..
              Akhil
              

    Hi Akhil,
              Temporary destinations can only store non-persistent messages
              as per JMS spec - so they are not useful for reliable for holding
              responses that must survive longer than the life of the
              interested client. For persistence, you will need to use configured
              queues or durable subscriptions. For detailed
              discussion of request/response, I suggest reading the "WebLogic JMS
              Performance Guide" white-paper on dev2dev.bea.com. If you
              have many clients, or expect large message back-logs,
              there can be a performance impact when using selectors...
              FYI: There is a new pub/sub subscriber index enhancement
              that is available in 8.1 and
              in the latest service-packs for 6.1, 7.0.
              "Indexing Topic Subscriber Message Selectors To Optimize Performance"
              http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/jms/implement.html#1294809
              This may be useful.

  • Best way to implement Aperture on a shared Mac

    I'm looking for some suggestions on the best way to implement Aperture on my work computer.  It's a 15" MacBook Pro Retina.  Since I don't own the laptop, can I just run Aperture from an external drive in case I have to give the computer up on short notice?  I have a 1 TB Lacie drive (USB 3.0) that currently holds a copy of all of my images.  I don't currently have Aperture, so this would be a completely new install.
    I know I can keep the images on the external drive as Referenced files, but what about the Library?  Can (or should) it be stored on the external drive?  If not, would a backup copy on the external drive (perhaps using Vault) be sufficient for portability?  For example, if I have to give the laptop back could I simply hook the Lacie up to a new MacBook, install Aperture, restore the latest Vault backup and be up and running?
    Any thoughts (pro & con) would be appreciated.

    If you use a fast drive with a relatively fast port (Thunderbolt, USB 3) you can keep your Aperture library on the external volume. But I would keep the Aperture application on the internal drive. If you buy Aperture from the AppStore, your licence would entitle you to install Aperture on any Mac you own or control - for private purposes. So while you have the work computer and control it, you can use Aperture there - for private purposes. Simply delete the app when you return it and unplug your external drive.
    For example, if I have to give the laptop back could I simply hook the Lacie up to a new MacBook, install Aperture, restore the latest Vault backup and be up and running?
    That would work.
    Make sure, your Lacie drive is formatted MacOS X Extended (Journaled), and set the "Ignore Ownership on this volume" flag. I assume, you are using different account names on the two macs.
    You should be able to download Aperture again to your new MacBook, if you use the same AppleID.

  • Displaying Multiple Values on GUI components - best way to implement

    Hi,
    my program needs to implement a basic function that most commercial programs use very widely: If the program requires that a GUI component (say a JTextField) needs to display multiple values it either goes <blank> or say something more meaningfull like "multiple values". What is the best way of implementing it?
    In particular:
    My data is a class called "Student" that among other things has a field for the student name, like: protected String name; and the usual accessor methods (getName, setName) for it.
    Assuming that the above data (i.e. Student objects) is stored in a ListModel and the user can select multiple "Students", if a JTextField is required to display the user selection (blank for multiple selections, or the student "name" for a single selection), what is the best (OO) way of implementing it? Is there any design pattern (best practice) for this basic piece of functionality? A crude way is to have the JTextField check and compare all the time the user selections one by one, but I'm sure there must be a more OO/better approach.
    Any ideas much appreciated.
    Kyri.

    Ok, I will focus on building a solution on 12c.
    right now I have used a USER_DATASTORE with a procedure to glue all the field together in one document.
    This works fine for the search.
    I have created a dummy table on which the index is created and also has an extra field which contains the key related to all the tables.
    So, I have the following tables:
    dummy_search
    contracts
    contract_ref
    person_data
    nac_data
    and some other tables...
    the current design is:
    the index is on dummy_search.
    When we update contracts table a trigger will update dummy_search.
    same configuration for the other tables.
    Now we see locking issues when having a lot of updates on these tables as the same time.
    What is you advice for this situation?
    Thanks,
    Edward

  • Best way to implement this code in labview

    Hi
    What is the best way to implement this code in labview programming.
    I have an analogue input which triggers a boolean light when it reaches a certain voltage. but at the same time i would like it to enable two other outputs one for a set period of time and the other stay on until another statement becomes true.
    For example
    case 1:
    Set output high
    Delay(2000ms)
    Set output low
    Case 2:
    Set output high
    If statement 2 is true
    then set out put low
    if not then repeat until statement is true
    Thanks for your help

    Hi David,
    The code you posted will work, although note that the front panel becomes 'unresponsive' - as changes in the controls are only read once per iteration.  The wait function is an example of an execution timing VI, however if we want to do software timing (like a 2 hour wait) - we should use software timing VIs.
    Check out the following example (note we can stop execution during run-time):

  • Best way to implement FREE purchase?

    Hi,
    I have purchases that are free for logged in users. What's the best way to implement a no-payment solution? Would having the payment fields hidden and COD auto-selected if the amount field is 0.00 a good idea? Is there a better way anyone has implemented this? And how about security flaws?

    Hi
    Here is an article about "no cost" orders
    COD payment method will not work for zero value orders , you will need to use the Free payment method described

  • What is the best way to implement Carousel i.e. web part in a site page on office 365 site?

    We can implement the Carousel web part in many ways like content By Query Web Part , jquery (nivo) plugin or content search web part etc. But among these which one is the best way to implement to get best performance of the page?
    Thanks

    content search web part always provides best performance because it uses the search. only consideration you need to take is, it does not display the changes immediately and you need to wait for the incremental crawl to happen.

  • Best way to implement service in 3-tier webarchitecture

    Hi,
    What would be the best way to implement a service in the following 3-tier TopLink architecture: no ejb and a webclient (jsp/servlets)?
    Currently I have a server session type and a service pojo using a singleton SessionFactory. The service pojo is used by the jsp/servlets.
    Should the service pojo be a singleton? Should a SessionManager be used?
    In the examples on OTN a clientsession is directly acquired in the jsp/servlets.
    Thanks,
    Ronald

    Ronald,
    There are numerous ways to do this. I would recommend using the SessionFactory. The SessionFactory makes use of the SessionManager, which holds onto the singleton Server session. You can then acquire client sessions using the oracle.toplink.sessions.Session interface from the SessionFactory. There is no need to hold the SessionFactory in a singleton yourself and you do not need to reference the ClientSession directly either.
    We have introduced this latest approach to simplify coding. It will work in both the web architecture with JSP/Servlets accessing the sessions as well as within an EJB tier (Session/Message Driven beans).

  • What is the best way to implement writable many-to-many relations

    As everyone knows, the many-to-many associations provided by BC4J are quite good to read many-to-many associations, but they are not able to write such associations.
    There are other solutions using composite associations or cascading-delete foreign keys, but as I was tought now, they are also quite problematic. See thread Internal error: Entity.afterRollback.status_dead   -- What does this mean? for more details.
    So I ask you: What is the best way to implement writable many to many associations? Do you really have to manage them "by hand"?
    Thanks for your ideas

    I'd appreciate any hint
    Thanks
